Well, well... I'm not strictly against paying for sex (although I'd never do it myself), there's just a few things:

1. In biological Darwinian terms, those who pay for sex are losers and unfit.

2. I think paid sex rarely constitutes a fair and equal business transaction. A business transaction is rarely equal, but considering all other factors (social, psychological, physical), a "paid sex" transaction is in most cases exceptionally abusive. I find the abuse factor even bigger in cases where westerners (sex tourists like Reak and a few others on this board) use the inequality between their and the prostitute's financial situation to their advantage (or so they think).

3. Whether it's justified or not, some things are unacceptable in our society, and paying for sex is one of them (it is at least in my milieu). It's not necessarily a bad thing to adhere to social norms. You don't walk around naked. You don't steal from others (some of us do). Why then steal someone's dignity, are your beastly drifts so strong?
