There is a level at which I'd like to see both recrational drugs and 
prostitution be legal.  If they were both legal for truly consenting 
adults, who would be presumed to understand the risks and be 
responsible for the consequences, and could be kept away from those too 
young for those things, I would favor legalization.

But that's not the world I live in.  Drug dealers *target* young 
people.  Drugs are probably more available in schools than anywhere 
else.

Prostitution is a very seamy, dark business in which the youngest and 
the most innocent are in the most demand.  Children are brought into 
prostitution by being misled, by being given addicting drugs, or by 
straightforward abduction.  They're used up and discarded when they're 
too old and broken to be fun any more.  They don't keep any of the 
money they bring in.  If they manage to escape, they are tracked down 
and forced to go back, or they are killed.  I think you'd have to be 
pretty naive (or pretty callous) to want to legalize prostitution.
