Why go to France when you can go to Nevada? Nevada is so fun and the girls are great.
Why go to Nevada when Disneyland is just two miles away?
Disneyland is nothing like Nevada.
Good! At least the lines for the rides are shorter than the ones in Nevada, and the only 'protection' I've ever had to wear on the Matterhorn is a little dab of sunscreen.

Because banning prostitution has really worked so well to eradicate it from every other country where its been outlawed. Why not go after the sex traffickers and the pimps?

That's not surprising at all. Haven't you heard? That the left and right have switched places?

Now the left are the authoritarian ones instead of the right. This isn't even the first time they've switched places. A few generations ago the right were known as liberals, think classical liberalism.

Prostitution should be legal, with no restrictions (as long as everyone involved is adult and consenting).

If they film it then it becomes porn and it suddenly becomes legal.

Is there a Lebanese English-language news website that isn't subscription based?

Because all you're showing me is the first paragraph of the article.

Use Hola! Chrome/Firefox extension and browse it under a proxy Lebanese IP.

Its a good thing if France moves toward working toward getting rid of the barbaric and inhumane practice of prostitution.

Yes, and then replaces it with licensed escort services, taxi-dance parlors, and dating websites.

If someone is of legal age, free of STDs, uses birth control, gets themselves checked for STDs on a regular basis, and isn't being forced to by anyone else, why should it be illegal for them to charge other people money to have sex with them? It's the mark of a puritanical society, if you ask me. Prostitution should be legal and regulated.

I can see why some people want it banned but I think it should be legal so it can be regulated effectively and protect workers and customers who seek it out.

I do wonder why they don't just go to Amsterdam instead where its all legal anyway?

The French government should lead the way in providing free sex to all citizens as a basic human entitlement.

If anything by banning prostitution this is a win for prostitutes since now by it being illegal they can charge their clients extra and will create a lucrative wealth effect for the black market. If you make anything illegal it's still business as usual within underground segments of societies.

I live in France, and this new law is just an ideological law that the radical feminists pushed for (or should I call them Feminazis), it's a law denying two consenting adults to do what they want with their own bodies, even if that means having sex for money. Basically the only thing that truly belongs to us is our own bodies, and if the government decides what we are allowed to do with them that means we don't belong to ourselves anymore but belong to the government. But since half of France are Marxist, and Marxism denies individual freedoms, there you have it.
Plus why doesn't France goes after the Mafias who put girls on the sidewalks instead? Why not fight after organized crimes? Why go after the customer? Why not allow people to visit independent escorts anymore? Because what I can sa is a lot of people with autism and especially Asperger syndrome are either going to end up very frustrated, or are going to break the law and continue visiting escorts.
But, this law might also get "censored" by the constitutional council (equivalent of the US supreme court), because how can something be legal, like paying for sex, but buying it is against the law? And like I said above, it goes against people's right to do what they want with their own bodies.
And last, this being France 99% of the laws are not even enforced at all, this being one of them. It's like Marijuana, France has the most severe drug laws of all of Europe (technically 1 joint can get you 1 years of jail) but also the highest amount of drug users in Europe, and nobody in 15 years as ever been prosecuted or finned for drug uses, in 99,999% of cases the cops take the drugs and throw them away (or keep them for themselves), an in 0,001% of cases you spend a couple of hours at the police station and they let you walk out free.

Anyway, France is taking the wrong route, what happened to the nation of De Sade, to what made France this once great liberal country it once was, where sex was not big deal however you practiced it. And the scary part is that it's the left and the liberals who voted this law, while the right and conservatives where against it.


I'm all for making prostitution in all its forms illegal. We should make all financial transactionary relationships illegal.

Why just stop with prostitution only? :lol:
