Why Prostitution should be legal: One of an 8 part Story by Bengali night girl

Part 1:
WORLDWIDE OUTLOOK ON PROSTITUTION:

The most popular stereotype of working girls is that they are all street walkers willing to accept a few dollars for their services, drug addicts controlled by pimps. In reality, this “oldest profession” falls into a few categories. Yes, there are the street walking Prostitutes whose life is awful, however, there are also those hookers that provide sexual favours in massage parlours, hotels and out of their own flats and at the end of the spectrum you find hookers working for themselves and charging sums of money that can run into thousands of dollars for a night or even an hour...

sex-work is up to now a criminal offence in many nations but there are some nations such as Holland that decided to officially legalise prostitution , The Dutch legalized sex-work in the mid-1800s but it wan not until the 1980s that prostitution was made a legally acceptable profession, bans on brothels and pimping were lifted and the industry is now controlled by labour law.prostitutes in Holland are registered workers, municipalities are responsible for issuing their licences and conducting inspections to ensure safe working conditions.

In Germany sex-work is legal and regulated, brothels are registered businesses requiring appropriate liquor and food licensing, if served, though surprisingly a brothel licence isn’t necessary, sex workers pay income taxes and must charge a value added tax (VAT) for their services.

In the majority of the parts however, sex work hasn’t got a clear definition and although its not accepted openly, its not criminalised either, in these countries you will not find people serving prison sentences for sex work even when there are rare police arrests.

In other places, prostitution itself may be legal, but many activities that surround it (such as operating a brothel, pimping, and soliciting in a public place) are illegal, often making it tricky for people to engage in it without breaking any law, this is the case in the UK, Italy and France.

In some parts women who work legally enjoy huge benefits: better access to health care, protection from violent punters and protection from exploitation. Antwerp has apparently one of the best bordellos in Europe, equipped with their own police station and high tech sensors.

by keeping it illegal, America perpetuates an unsafe and unequal system that stigmatises and exploits sex workers, not to mention, there is widespread evidence that Legalizing sex work has significant public health benefits. Legalizing prostitution is a controversial subject in most places and in these places, some argue that decriminalizing prostitution promotes an industry that degrades and abuses people, especially women. This may be a fair point but if you look at America, by keeping prostitution illegal it has created an environment in which sex workers are subjected to violence, disease, ridicule and inequality.
