All adult sex work should be legal across the board. Anyone, of legal age, should be allowed to not only sell their services but they should be able to pay taxes and be allowed to unionize and collect benefits from any organization they work for (brothels).
A lot of the people in this world who are messed up in the head just need to get laid, and those doing to dirty work should be celebrated and rewarded for their efforts. I genuinely think this would make the world a better place.
people...just need to get laid
A Hollywood induced fantasy.
People need therapy, and substituting that with sex is enabling the messed up folks to stay messeed up.Sexual surrogacy is a thing for a reason. Licensed therapists work with patients and sexual surrogates.

So sex can be part of therapy.
They said dumb ideas, not smart ones.
That is pretty much how it is in Germany. Illegal (outside of the regulation avoiding taxes) and forced prostitution is still a huge problem. There is just way too much money to be made in that business...
I personally prefer the Nordic models therfore.
The problem in the countries that generally allow prostitution is that, though it has been legalized, it is still horribly stigmatized. Which creates that gap where forced prostitution can flourish. If a "business" is using illegal immigrants as forced labor, who can they turn to for help? That's a double dose of stigma right there. But even a native person who's being coerced would likely get little in the way of help since "upstanding" society looks down on their chosen profession.
Our collective worldly society needs to stop looking down their nose at sex workers as some kind of deviancy.
But then, seeing how religious extremists seem to be gaining power all over, I doubt we'll see any positive change on any of these things.
The pimps that are trafficking over don't care about stigmas and the women aren't afraid about getting stigmatized, but about getting send back to their home-countries.
You're reading comprehension is lacking. The people I am referring to having a stigma against prostitution are not the pimps or the girls who are performing. It's the law and the society of people who think prostitution is a lowly profession for degenerates.
