Unfortunately not, prejudices are hard to erase, and there are quite a few here regarding prostitutes.

huh.... i see... looks like the next step then is to work towards improving their Social Image in Society.

at the same time though, i have to assume that other more pressing political matters are at hand there, and so therefore it all has to be according to priority.

I say no... Plain and simple. If a man is not happy with one woman then he will never be happy. And it is an encouragement to cheat. The whore is just a whore. She will never feel anything more for herself. She will never strive to be an upstanding and influential citizen. If a woman wants to be a whore then let her defile herself in her own way, just don't involve money... Money is already so frickin' dirty...

o_O; .... wow... our views on this couldn't be more opposed. sweatdrop

honestly, i feel offended on many levels, and not even taking into account the various types of girl and women you just attacked with that statement, you've now accused everyone who is Polyamorous, or Single-but-Sexually-Active, or otherwise willing to Pay for Sex, a "cheater" or else doomed to misery!!

i, myself, cannot stand to be monogamous. you say that that mans that i'm never gonna be happy? if what you think is true, that should i just give up now and pull the trigger? i refuse to settle for what dissatisfies me, and one woman in't enough.

and another thing; Swinging isn't cheating. if someone is married, and their spouse is ok with them having extramarital Sex, then it is perfectly alright. it is not cheating. legalizing Prostitution does not encouraged cheating, because it doesn't change the paradigms of marriage. having extramarital Sex that the Spouse was not ok with is still grounds for divorce. that should be enough of a disinterment to cheat.

i know you didn't mean any harm by what you meant, and by all means you have you're right to your opinion. i certainly don't mean for this to be an attack, just my personal argument, since i feel like what you said directly relates to me and my kind.

Wow, that's really, really judgmental and not really based on much of anything. Prostitutes don't aspire to become them. It's financial pressure, almost exclusively. It has nothing to do with sexual desire
I'd really just suggest you look into some of the stories and statistics before making such wide-sweeping generalizations. It doesn't really contribute to any kind of informed discourse if you make such statements.

"Upstanding citizen" has a pretty arbitrary definition.
Depending on your culture it varies profoundly. Also we have to consider that these definitions change.
Until relatively recently in our society a man who beat his wife could be considered perfectly upstanding, so long as he didn't beat her too badly. It was legal and acceptable for a man to sexually assault his wife until the 1980s. These aren't completely related to the topic but it's important to note that these things change as well as our understanding of the issues.

One man, one woman is heterosexist and also ethnocentric. There are other ways to live. I'm not advocating for the buying of prostitutes (the only reason prostitutes exist is because of the people who buy them, by the way) but rather just pointing out that your definition of happiness is very narrow sighted.
