So your plan is to set up a two tiered system.
And that would help Johns only.

I disagree with that.

If prostitution is kept illegal, and a John beats and rapes a woman who is a prostitute, she has no protection at all from the law. If she tries going to the police (or even calling for help while being assaulted,) she opens herself up to criminal charges, and unfortunately, many in law enforcement (and the public) see the assault as "something that she was asking for."

As long as they keep laws on the books that go after pimps and traffickers, a woman should have the option of making a bad choice, but in some cases, it's the only choice she may have.

I've just seen the current laws as being something that victimizes women twice, while protecting men who are predators.
