We do not impose legal penalties upon men and women who choose to be promiscuous. Why should the exchange of money suddenly make an incident of lawful and consensual sexual intercourse an illegal act?
 
Granted that prostitution has been present in societies across the world for thousands of years, governments should recognise that it cannot be eradicated. Consequently they should pass legislation that makes prostitution safer, rather than persist with futile and dangerous prohibition.
 
DIMPY, I AGREE WITH YOUR VIEW. BUT SEE THE PICTURE WHERE ONE SIDE IS A PROFESSIONAL CALL GIRLS AND OTHER IS THE MARKET OF PROSTITUTION WHO COMES NOT BY THEIR OWN ACCEPTANCE BUT DUE TO THEIR "MAJBURI"
BUT YA SAFER PROSTITUTION SHOULD BE THERE BUT JUST GOVT ACTIVITY ALONE CANNOT MAKE ALL...

THE PEOPLE OF INDIA NEEDS TO BE TRANSFORMED FOR THE SAME... AND ALSO MARKET OF PROSTITUTION SHOULD BE NOT FORCED BUT A POINT OF CHOICE...
 
ya i absolutly agree wid both of u a safr prostitution must be there if not eradicatd..... becoz they r nt doin it willinly while they forcible to do this to earn their livelihood for themselves nd for their own family.... govt just take them for granted nd even try to make sum legislation to protect them....

I believe imposing penalties on prostitution is unjustified as is penalty on promiscuous men and women. Morality is a delicate issue, with each person having a different barometer for right and wrong. Penalising based on issues of morality would be unreasonable, i think.
 
All being said and done, don't you think we need a legislation on prostitution to safeguard the rights of those involved in the business of prostitution?
 
A prostitute is a person, "who allows her body to be used for lewd purposes in return for payment". Prostitution is the sale of sexual services, such as oral sex or sexual intercourse, for money. Prostitution the word itself speaks about the plight of a women .It is not a problem which exists in India but exists throughout the world. Prostitution was a part of daily life in ancient Greece .In the more important cities, and particularly the many ports, it employed a significant proportion of the population and represented one of the top levels of economic activity. In the ancient city of Heliopolis in Syria, there was a law that stated that every maiden should prostitute herself to strangers at the temple of Astarte.
 
he Supreme Court of India recently suggested legalising prostitution as a solution to the reality that, despite a raft of law, there is a rapid proliferation of the sex trade. The apex court, presided by a two-judge bench, said no legislation anywhere in the world had successfully managed to stop the sex trade, and legalising it would allow authorities to "monitor the trade, rehabilitate and provide medical aid to those involved".Prostitution is legal with some restrictions in Canada, almost all of Europe including England, France, Wales and Denmark, most of South America including most of Mexico, Brazil, Israel , Australia, and many other countries.
 
Most of the women are forced into prostitution by poverty. Many women, who cannot make ends meet despite their backbreaking labor, are lured into the flesh trade by "friends" or pimps. But there are a few who choose the "profession" to lead a "better life". A very disturbing trend of some people forcing even their family members into prostitution has to come to light. But such cases are rare.

Prostitutes face a lot of risks other than being vulnerable to venereal diseases like HIV/AIDS. They live under constant fear of being exposed in society and are afraid of unwanted pregnancy. They always face the risk of being beaten up by violent "bosses", customers or policemen. More and more cases of prostitutes being robbed or murdered are being reported nowadays.
