How California May be the Next State to Legalize Prostitution

Advocates of legalized prostitution may have the opportunity to overthrow California's 145 commercial ban as decided by the San Francisco 9th Circuit Court of Appeals Thursday.

Three former prostitutes, one potential customer, and pornographic service provider filed lawsuits on education, research and research projects. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, plaintiffs asserted that prostitution infringed the rights of both parties to consent to sexual acts, as stated in the 2003 Supreme Court ruling in 2003 to overturn the law on homosexuality .

Judge Jeffrey White of Auckland's US federal district court dismissed last year's claim that the 2003 ruling protected only intimate relationships and did not protect commercial sex. He also said that prostitution is prohibited to protect women's safety, to prevent trafficking and to limit the spread of diseases.

Judge Conlaelo Callahan said that prostitution is "morally contrary" like homosexuality, and agreed. He further argued that the 2003 Supreme Court case involved "personal rights", so the right to sell the human body in exchange for money may be "a natural prolongation of the Supreme Court precedent" There.

However, Deputy Attorney General Sharon O'Grady said that the difference between legalization of homosexuality and legalization of prostitution is "commercial aspect ... commercialization of gender".

The 2003 ruling on homosexuality for homosexuals was used as a precedent for this case.

The idea of ​​O'Grady dominated Jeffrey White's personal gender and commercial gender differences a year ago - and prostitution is the "girls" who used to defend women from violence, drug use, Easy to draw "

"We believe state-sponsored prostitution is one of the most important sources of sex trading, although legal or regulatory systems are different but common, legal or regulated prostitution sponsored by prostitutes It means that the prostitution system itself is accepted, and the term "state-sponsored prostitution" is used in any legal system or regulatory system that treats sex industry as a legitimate business , The state actually indicates that it will be another thing of prostitution income.

Regulation: Prostitution can be regarded as a legitimate business; prostitution and prostitution employment is legal but regulated; the majority of the Netherlands, Germany, Australia and some parts of Nevada (Nevada prostitution reference). Regulation levels vary widely; for example, in the Netherlands prostitutes do not need to undergo a mandatory medical examination (see Dutch prostitution), but in Nevada regulation is very strict (see Nevada prostitution).

In places or provinces where prostitution is legalized, reports on sexual offenses and crimes are on the rise. For example, in states in Nevada, prostitution is legalized and sexual crime is rampant. Nevada has a higher incidence of rape than average rape rate in states such as New York, California, New Jersey. To legalize prostitution creates an atmosphere in which women are not respected by men and considered as unequal for men. In addition, prostitution has created a central place to increase sexual violence against women (Kesler 2002)
