Walter Block on prostitution

Some of these things should be stigmatized.  We shouldn't use heroin.  Heroin is not good.  I'm against using heroin and I'm against prostitution.  Look, I have a wife.  I have a mother; well, she's passed away.  I have a sister, a daughter.  I wouldn't want any of them to be a prostitute.  I think prostitution is very bad.  So I want it to remain stigmatized.  I want young people to be told, "Don't engage in prostitution.  There are better ways of relating with each other."  I'm sort of conservative in that way.  So I don't really want to destigmatize it, but I don't want prostitutes to be arrested, because that would violate the non-aggression principle.  I want to promote liberty.
