Prohibition is the problem - let the hookers set up shoppe and run it like any business. That way they can protect themselves.

Meanwhile, harm reduction is the next best thing. Using condoms is harm reduction, and it has been helpfull and it is now accepted as  "standard equiptment" when paying for sex.

I want to add one thing off topic -  this whole SEX thing is a little wierd isn't it? Mostly, for the men I mean - it just seems like their natural instincts are being used to control them, and to take their money from them, like hanging out a carrot that they cannot resist. I think it would be liberating for males to lose their sex addiction... but apparently then there wouldn't be much worth living for? Really?
