What's the problem with halal sex for both men and women ?
Some individuals aren't constrained by the value's which you see being taught.
Some even see values different being taught.
(Consider the old "women & children first" philosophy in life saving situations.
Hoyven glaven! What are men.....just chopped liver?)
To find a loose correlation between childhood abuse & adult choices is not to say the former is deterministic.
But even if it were, it doesn't make prostitution immoral.
No matter what our upbringing, be it healthy or ill, the morality of our choices
should be determined by liberty & autonomy of the parties involved.
Analogy time:
It's been said that gay men resulted from weak/absent fathers & overbearing mothers.
Even if this were true, would it make being gay wrong/immoral? Of course not.
Still one interesting question remains.....
If women are valued less than men, & because of this they have less choice in entering
prostitution, does that mean that men have more freedom to choose the same?
Don't worry....whatever your answer, it isn't to prove or disprove anything.
Just curious.

I'm not moralizing. What I'm questioning is whether "freely" chosen prostitution can be a furtherance of abuse. Why do you keep insisting I'm doing something I'm repeatedly telling you I'm not?
Good!
Cuz I'm the one preaching here (against government prohibition of consensual sex for money).
I don't think I'm insisting that.What I'm questioning is whether "freely" chosen prostitution can be a furtherance of abuse. Why do you keep insisting I'm doing something I'm repeatedly telling you I'm not?
I did probe to see if you wanted any prohibitions, & you've made it clear that you don't.
At this point, I'm curious about your views on freedom vs dysfunctional predestined choices.
When a 13 year old girl asks a naive question motivated by ideas about reinstituting temple prostitution, pontificating "against government prohibition of consensual sex for money" strikes me as more thoughtless than helpful.
Bless your heart.
And maybe you should avoid proselytizing.

Mixed. We might just as well be arguing over whether free will exists.

I believe in free will, but I also believe that I'm predestined to believe it.
An conundrum, eh?

In Babylon it was a sacred requirement for all women to offer themselve, once, at the Temple of Aphrodite.
There were no permanent temple prostitutes.

It seems strange to me that a womans enjoyment and skill in the art of sexual pleasure.
must be subjugated as a prostitute at the margines of criminality.
Perhaps it could see expression in a more innocent and joyous way.
Of course such a way exist in partnership with a devoted husband.
Only the Japanese seem to have combined all the female arts in that of the geisha.
Temple Geishas free from commerce, with the women making the choices would seem possible.

I'm allready catholic, but i will leave the church when i'm 14 cause it doesn't help me making money. Besides, it's a feminism thing. There are no great female sect founders like Hubbard. (Except Uriella)

Funny thing is, that vaginal prostitution is prohibited in Japan since 1958.

Had to think about this one for a while. I think if sex isn't moralized, it would likely become a valueless commodity.

It allready is, but not if you are ugly.
Sounds like you are not really Catholic now. You just have not told anyone that. Reminds me of myself at your age.
And there is some Irish archbishop bemoaning the loss of the youth.
