Anyone that's ever dated a woman is participating in prostitution. Sorry, it's the truth. Prostitution isn't going away.....EVER. It's the oldest profession on the books. Might as well regulate it and tax it. ...and yes, the damn government has NO business getting involved in the business between two individuals. Don't think so? Don't start bitching when the government tells you you can't sell your rifle to someone else without going through one of their "licensed" dealers.
I disagree. I'm the father of daughters. Not how I viewed courting their mother, my wife.
And this is what I have to look forward to, when my little darling is that old.
*shrugs* Do your job as a good parent, and just hope for the best. In the end, we cannot control how they turn out. Many of today's biggest Porn Stars are extremely intelligent, respectable women. If you where to know them in real life, and not know what they did for a living, you'd probably never suspect it.
I have incredible respect for you guys who have daughters (moms too, but this is directed at the dads): You know how you were, you know how boys are -- how you don't lock your girls in their room until they are 35 is beyond me.
I am not being facetious. I really do have great respect for you. In today's world, to instill values and morals is quite the task (and thanks, Moms, for leading by example).
I saw a
Day by Day cartoon (by Chris Muir) a couple of months ago which addressed this. One of the characters, a former CIA "operative," and his wife have twin girls. He has this vision, and his wife asks him what's wrong, and he responds with words like these: "I just realized that I have to hunt down and kill every bad boy on the planet." I can identify with this sentiment.

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.
