Well I doubt they will be able to eradicate it, but it is part of a troubling illiberal trend.

As long as they're at least partially or notionally female, no.
Or, you know, if they at least look good in high heels...

Sure. Child prostitutes and adult prostitutes who are doing it against their will are real victims. Every other form of prostitution should be allowed because they are consenting adults. Even ladyboys as long as they disclose it upfront.

Making everyone that pays for sex a criminal only masks the drastic moral distinction between paying a consenting adult and paying someone who enslaves non-consenting adults and children. It expands the black market sex trade to include all pay-for-sex activity, giving sex-slavers more shadows to hide in.
Such blanket restrictions against prostitution should be opposed, even if one thinks that paying consenting adults for sex is problematic due to the desperation that leads many to consent to such a trade. Clearly there are far worse and more transparently immoral aspects of the sex-trade that only increase their market share and ability to hide in the sea of lesser sex crimes, when all sex-trade is made criminal.
Goddamnit. Now where am I going to get syphilis from a twelve year old?

If you can't tell up front you're sure to feel it up the back.

1. Use a condom.Goddamnit. Now where am I going to get syphilis from a twelve year old?
a. Making sex work legal would also enable mandatory health checkups of sex workers. Nevada as well as areas of Europe where sex work is legal have very low STD transmission rates through sex work.
2. Don't fuck 12 year olds. Seriously, what's wrong with you?

Why bother poking a hole in condom in order to get a STD when it is easier and cheaper to not wear one in the first place?
Of all the tragic news in the world today this is without doubt the worst.

Good. An awful lot of the girls aren't exactly consenting.
