I agree with someone who pointed out the nonsense about legalized prostitution reducing the rate of rape.
And I am not averse to it being legalized, but I do believe it should be regulated and HEAVILY.
And I hope that the government in S Africa really does give these women and, uh, young girls safe environments in which to work in. I'm skeptical, though. That's not something you just whip together in a year or two.
