Seems counterintuitive, right? Socialists against prostitution.

France got around to banning incest in 2010 or so.
Catching up to civilization are they?

Sounds like the prostitutes won the election and are going to get revenge on their customers.
Not a good business plan.

Wow, that’s sure going to cut into their Way Expensive Flowers and Unbelievably Incredibly Expensive Dinners business.
Isn’t that “paying for sex?”

Weird way to phrase things.
They want to shame the customer, but not the hooker.
S&M?

Marriage is paying for sex; on an installment plan.

The problem here is that even if the majority of prostitutes start out as child or teenage victims, they turn into adults who just might make false accusations to turn a buck...or a Franc, or a Euro or whatever. Especially the percentage which uses intoxication to deal with the life they are in.
And if there is no penalty for the prostitute then there is also no leverage to force them into rehabilitave treatment.
Experementation with laws exactly paralleling this have produced dismal results in Sweden, where child brothels in Muslim no police zones have mushroomed even as adult prostitution amongst the native population decreased.
There are always simple, easy to understand, wrong answers to life’s problems and this is a prime example.

We all pay for sex, in one way or another.

Well there goes half the French “gross” domestic product.

They should criminalize community property and alimony.
