You're clearly in favor of free, open, and unlimited prostitution. Buying and selling is a basic transaction between people, so sex should be the same thing.

I am in favor of prostitution being legal. I don't know if that would be the same thing as saying I am in favor of prostitution.

I do support legalized prostitution, and I think it should be regulated so that it's safe. Right now it contributes to both criminal and public health problems.

You think high-pressure sales tactics are appropriate

Absolutely not. High pressure is not good faith or respectful.

:You think a man or woman should be freely able to insert an advertisement

I don't have a problem with advertisement as long as it's done discretely, like in those magazines that are covered up in stores.

And you think it should be doable on the street in public if people want to

Of course not, that affects innocent bystanders.

Are you sure you don't want to modify that statement just a bit??

I will when and if you find a flaw in it.
