You wouldn’t want a general contractor to work on your house without a license would you?

Why yes I would. Its called freedom.

I found myself scratching my head in wonder as i concentrated on the word "unregulated". I really don't have that much of an inner Puritan to embrace, so prostitution is not going to cause me to gasp in horror. But the fact that liberals are so concerned about AIDS (as well as other STD's....as we should all be), and the fact that most prostitutes are women who are in desperate circumstances subjected to abuse by their pimps and the johns they service, I can't understand why they would be so vociferous on unregulated prostitution. Or maybe I don't know the mind of the ACLU well enough yet.

No surprise here. What I would give to see the complete and total destruction of the ACLU!

In the absence of laws against extramartial sex (unmarried, adultery, one night stands, same sex sodomy...) and against paying babysitters and anyone to mow your yard, there is little for the government TO regulate.

The Supreme Court sodomy decision can't prohibit sex acts in the bedroom. How will they know if you "paid" for sex or went on a date buying lavish gifts? Those gifts would be prohibited if we were talking about a lobbyist and a congressman. The appearance of improprity.

There are bartenders who are bedding a number of different women each week. They are also at risk of spreading venereal disease. There is nothing to regulate their sexual encounters. I know a friend who worked with one such "lucky" guy and he played six-degrees-of-separation with any woman he considered dating. If he could tie the woman within six sex partners (male or female) of the other guy, he would not go out with her.

that existing laws are discrimination against women

No, both male and female prostitution are illegal.
