Where are all the folks that believe a woman has a right to do with her body as she pleases? They believe it is a woman’s right to abort a baby but apparently they don’t think she has the right to sell her body for sex. How come these same people aren’t marching in the streets to decriminalize prostitution? Isn’t it logucal to think they would be?
