The Oldest Profession

Money for sex is against the law. Should it be? I think not. There is no doubt that if one person forces another into a sexual situation, the assailant should be dealt with harshly. Sex slavery is bad and those trafficking in it should be punished with sentences of life in prison since the people, mostly women, who are victims of these crimes suffer for the rest of their lives. By the same standard, rapists should be sent to prison for life (or adjusted for what the victim wants). But when it is a person's right to choose issue, the government should stay out of it, money or not.

I remember a joke I heard long ago. A man and a woman meet in a bar. They engage in a conversation. He asks her, "Would you go to bed with me for a million dollars?" "Yes," she answers. He asks, "Would you go to bed with me for twenty dollars?" "What kind of a girl do you think I am?" She responds. And he says, "I know what kind of a girl you are, now we just need to settle on a price!"

Having sex is something most adults do, but it is also something most people don't talk in polite conversation. Hang on to your brain, this might surprise you... ready? Your mom and dad had sex! Oh my! Sex is taboo, dirty. And yet when two people do have consensual sex within a relationship it can get very dirty... and exciting. In the bed, on the floor, in the shower, in the car, with feathers, with vibrators, with lotions, and that is just day one! How many times months or years later will one of these two people have sex with the other just to satisfy the other or even to get their way on some other bone of contention? Isn't that prostitution?

I was in a relationship with a wonderful woman who once said and truly believed that, "... sex is just something to do... it is fun..." I agree, although I, personally, like to be in love with my sex partner. And if this woman wanted to have sex with a guy who was willing to give her money for it, what gives any government the right to interfere with the transaction? Both parties win! In legal speak, it is a valid contract with consideration going both ways.

Morality, religion, and government have no place in deciding for a free person who they can and cannot have sex with, whether or not they get paid for it. This is a fundamental issue of personal choice!
