That was a rationalization, not a rational. History has shown, again and again, that controlled legal prostitution spreads less STDs than does illegal prostitution. The moralists make a fundemental mistake in thinking that making something illegal will make it go away. The 'it keeps disease down' argument is a fallback position used by the moralists when they find that their bigoted arguments are insufficient. They depend on two principles to get their way: (1) Whatever is said loud enough and often enough is accepted as truth. (2) Most people would rather listen to authority than to do a little digging and a little thinking to establish the real truth.

Can you point me towards any supporting literature, Pete?
