The majority of those who are prostitutes do not do it because they want to or enjoy it. ... The Council for Prostitution Alternatives, Portland, Oregon Annual Report in 1991 stated that: 85% of prostitute/clients reported history of sexual abuse in childhood; 70% reported incest. ... Not only the prostitute herself but those who loved her are also pained either directly or indirectly. ... If prostitution were legalized and made an occupation the damage that it would still do would be numerous. ... The chances for getting a higher paying job for an ex-prostitute would probably not be very high. Finding someone who would accept her past job would also not be very easy. ...
