What are you defending? And why? The business is just as mentally scarring to an 18 year old as to a 15/16 year old. There are no 'acceptable' niceties in prostitution, it's a nasty business, run by, and patronised by nasty people. 

Jeremy get real. Here in this country some of the niceties some girls get will be their knight in shining armor and ticket out of being poor. There are certainly some black areas and black souls who force it when slavery and trafficking is applied, but the majority of it is not that way. Stick to a subject you know something about.

Very true.  It is disgusting .  Hope they get more than a very nasty slap on the wrist.  People around the world will be watching.

I worry that this is simply not enough incentive to effect a change
