Cicero, I too am troubled by the abuse of age of consent laws, like when a 17 year-old boy is thrown in jail and has to register for the rest of his life as a sex offender bc he had consensual sex with his 15 year-old girlfriend. What I don't like about this case, however, is that the mother signed over the daughter to perform sex so the mother wouldn't lose him. That is pretty horrible. The fact that the mother had gastric bypass surgery and must be an obese slob only makes the situation more gross.

This is a seriously disgusting and dysfunction group of people.

I do agree, however, that prostitution ought to be legal.

Yeah, I'm going to come down on the side of this not really being the least bit funny.

Prostitution involving adults, fine. Whoring out children, not.

It's an illegal contract anyways, as it involves sex which cannot be commoditized under current US law. If prostitution were legal, it would violate the whole "can't diddle the kiddles" thing.

There isn't much of a lesson to be learned here, other than that I don't really feel like working today.
