Less laws is always good..

But consider. When you go to the statutes, you will find that they are not the laws.

Some Congress or Governor might vote a law into place. Then the law is turned into a statute/code. The statute/code doesn't say the same thing as the law. It might not even mean much of anything that the actual law that it was based on meant.

In the USA and a few other countries, things are based on common law in the locality. Anyone who wants to fight a law can take it to jury trial, and get the jury to vote on that particular law in the case at hand.

A simple example might be two counties in State X. The posted speed limit on the highway is, say, 65. In County A, a jury lets John Doe travel at 85. In County B a different jury lets John Doe travel 45 max. All the rest of the people in those counties can go 65 but not over. However, if enough juries adjudicate that enough people can travel 85, the State will have to change the speed limit law to 85.

I agree with legalization of prostitution more because of concern from the public health risk of an unregulated industry. People will dip and and get dipped when they want to and they can bring diseases back into the family. Having it legalized and regulated meant more frequent testing.

Of course that don't automatically erase the risk, for example testing is already a requirement in the porn industry but there are still some companies that have sloppy compliance but it does reduce the risk.

Oh, and also it removes money from syndicates that are operating prostitution ring.

For many people marriage is not about legal sex but about making life easier. In case of an accident I wouldn't be able to know my girlfriend's condition, I wouldn't be treated like family and might be even denied entry to her hospital room. If one of us died, parents and siblings would inherit everything, even though we've worked for it together.
It's just convenient to be married when you're living together and sharing investments and expenses.

The asset sharing is definitely a big benefit, especially if the spouse's family is hostile to the relationship. Else the remaining spouse could be left with nothing. I'm not fond of it with divorces though.

Prostitution, Weed, Gambling.etc can never be banned. They have been around for thousands of years (or probably since the beginning of humanity). Semitic religions such as Christianity and Islam imposed a moral code on us, which is not very compatible with the basic human character. This is one of the reasons why we hear about so many sex abuse scandals from the Islamic and Christian clerics. I am not saying that Buddhist and Hindu clerics are immune, but the incidence is very low.

And the problem with banning prostitution is that, since sex is one of the basic human necessities, the demand will always persist. And this will result in the business going underground, where there is more scope for exploitation and forced sex trafficking. Legalization can eradicate this issue.

Almost nothing can be banned by government if it is set up to be done privately. Government is there to regulate the public, not the private. In private, government might still have some control over things that are dangerous. But government has to be ready to prove the danger in court if they attempt to regulate what you do in private. Sex laws are currently set up so that consenting adults can do just about any sexual thing in private.

We have had gentleman's clubs for ages. Since they are private, there is a lot that goes on within them that would not be allowed in public.

Possibly the best way to set up a private club these days is with Private Membership Associations (PMA). Net search and Youtube search on "Private Membership Association." If you set one up, the attorneys who do your legal paperwork will be ready to help you if government tries to take away your freedom when you are doing things in private.

All of that being said, prostitution, public or private, wrecks the lives of people and society. Rather, get married (via a simple PMA if you want, rather than a public marriage license), and keep sex between one man and one woman, in the family.

For you, put everything that you own in trust. Place the conditions of your bodies (you and she) into trust with the right to be the first authorization for each other in case of accidents. Be co-trustees if you want. Or have two trusts if you want your property to remain separate. List all your property in the trust, and state who gets what if you die or she dies, or if it all should remain in trust for the other one, or for the successor trustee. Appoint a successor trustee with distinct, detailed instructions for the successor, should you both die.

You can write it up almost any way you like. There are even ways to overcome just about any State rules that might be against something you want in your private trust.

Since sex is already lawful between people who voluntarily marry each other, the only reason for government to make it legal is to make money off it by selling licenses, and by regulation the children that are products of marriage.

Some groups have even legalized polygamy. Since we have legal same-sex marriage, a little more pushing, and we will get wives with more than one husband, and formal communal marriage. So far some of this stuff is only legal on the private level. But liberals are pushing it to be legal publicly.

I mean, marriage is all about legal sex, isn't it? Sure, there are other reasons, but sex is the main one, isn't it?
