Oops, I won't buy that! Never been in the Eastern Block countries? How about Far East? No prostitution there? I wonder where it originally came from. >Yes, there *is* prostitution in Amsterdam, >that's *tolerated* is quite something else than *legalized* prostitution, >which is what the discussion was about. Why is it tolerated? The Dutch cannot control that their people obey laws? Sounds more like you've *accepted* prostitution and that I regard as morally very questionable. Do you *tolerate* drugs too?. (Okey, okey there are prostitutes and narcomaniacs in Norway, too, but they are not *tolerated*). -- ---ekv, {seismo,decvax,philabs}!mcvax!kvport!{kvvax4,kvvax9}!esa
