It's not the sex that should be illegal, it's the buying, and the trafficking. In Sweden, for example, victims of either free to report both abuse and disease without fear of arrest.
This is not going to make it overnight legal to buy slaves. It will make it less economic to do so in fact.
They might not tell you. There could be any number of reasons for them not to - threats to their and their families lives amongst others.
Or maybe, you don't even speak the same language.
Once again, economics will make this make less money.
How?
Or am I misunderstanding what you're saying here?
That makes no sense, it things are accepted and regulated it will become easier to find humain rights violations, not harder.
It will be harder, since they would be buried under a ton of bureaucratic paper work.
But all the issues you have brought up are already here and this will only help to fix them.
That's the point - it won't. It will only hide them, and make it easier for organized crime to hide behind it (the legislature).
This is a good thing for everyone. There will always be prostitutes, and there will alwayss be people who will hire them. Arresting them for that is just stupid, and now both sides will be safer. Now, disease and abuse can be properly reported without fear of arrests and everyone will be better off.

And this is different from what I said...how?[/quote]
Arresting people for buying sex in not stupid. It is necessary to have sex-buying illegal to stop trafficking and sex slavery.
I think you're just paranoid about this. Someone who's honestly in this nightmare situation would try to do somthing. It's just human nature to try and escape a bad situation through any avenue, and someone would notice if their prostitute seemed abused in mind or body.
No, it's not. In fact, unless you count suicide as an escape-way, it's human nature to cope with bad situations rather than trying to escape them. This is the same reason why abused wives (and husbands) so seldom leave their significant other.
No one is arguing the legalization of human trafficing.
You are, in an indirect way. Legalisation of prostitution would make it easier for traffickers/sex slavers to conduct their "business". You have to view the whole scope of things, not just how it will effect your navel area.
In my eyes, you people are just far to naive and trusting to be able to see the seriousness of the issue. Nobody in today's society sells their own body out of free will.
Sure they do. People will do anything for money.
And of course people sell themselves out of free will.
Of course,
some do. 99% don't, however, and that last 1% doesn't matter - it's the one's whose being forced against their will who do. And once more, legalising prostitution wouldn't help them, it would only work against them.
Also, compulsion do to things can have many shapes. It's not always a gun to your head, yet it's still not free will.
