Mike, I agree that the main thing wrong with prostitution is the fact that it's illegal. For sure.

However, there is no way I would trade money for sex, because sex is too personal to me. It's an indication that a woman really likes me if she wants to have sex with me. It indicates some warmth and mutual regard between the two people. Respect. Affection. Love, quite possibly.

That makes me feel good.

Paying a woman money so she would consent to have sex with me would imply that I am most likely worth less than nothing to her. That doesn't turn me on at all, Mike. In fact, it's sort of gross, in my opinion.

Sure men have different needs. So? I still like to know the other person cares...and if no one does...well, then, I'll go without it. There are worse things than going without sex.
