It depends, buddy! There's a big gulp between moral and legal approach on this issue. Not always can we find legal interpretation being backed by moral/ethical foundation.. just like OJ's situation, it depends on which angle you are looking at the issue from. Sure, if the district legality says it's OK to allow prostitution, then it should be interpreted as OK within the realm of the law. However, that is totally different from saying it is morally/ethically OK too. So, what d'you say on this, buddy? Do you need a prostitute? And if so (yes.. hypothetical assumption), what's the true reason for that? If you are married and thinking about going to a brothel, you know that you are not right in moral standard... come on.. let's be honest. If you are a single and thinking about visiting a whore-house, you are either a socially impotenet fellow, a victim/loser of the man/woman relationship, a darn horny toad, or a rookie fella curious of the 'thing'.. Whatever the reason(s) might be, you KNOW it is morally wrong! Having a sex is different from buying a sex. So, as for me, I cast 'NO' to your question. Gene Drexler.
