Your position is well thought out, but I cannot agree that were it legal, prostitution would become ship-shape and button-up, and a "responsible" business. Selling sex is still selling sex, whether it is a "legitimate" enterprise or not. Purchasing the use of someone else's sacred body is often conjoined with all sorts of unwholesome behavior. That is because it violates God's created order: we are not meant to give ourselves to anyone random person with enough money. Try as we might, prostitution will never be like popping over to the Wal-MArt for a pint of milk.

The issue of disease is still not addressed, because many women and men will are left with broken bodies and destroyed psyches from his practice.

The issue of disease is still not addressed, because many women and men will are left with broken bodies and destroyed psyches from his practice.

In my youth, I worked on some large industrial construction projects. Unitl laws were passed that penalized employers for promoting unsafe construction practices broken bodies were a not uncommon practice. You will always have accidents because construction is a risky business, but now the industry is safer than it used to be.

You cannot regulate the safety practices of an illegal business, in fact making it illegal just raises the risk for the workers. Legal business can provide insurance, retirement and other benefits for their workers. Illegal businesses cannot.
