Abstract

In current times, the body has become a medium for human expression. At a certain age, people can get pierced and tattoos that carry deeper meaning for them or are simply for aesthetic purposes. Cosmetic surgery is at its peak. For decades, people have been using their bodies to express their sexuality through stripping and pornography, yet the oldest profession in the world currently illegal in the United States. Adults are not allowed to have mutual, consensual sex with one another in exchange for a fee. prostitution is legal only in the state of Nevada, where a thriving organized prostitution industry has developed. Elsewhere, prostitution still exists; proscribing has done nothing to cut back the business. prostitution operates in the form of call services, massage parlors and street prostitution where the safety and health of the customers and the workers cannot be regulated. In order to correct this problem, it is necessary to establish that the right to prostitute one's self exists under the right to sexual privacy. Once that is done, then the government can regulate the practice like any other business: protections for workers and customers, and safety and health inspections.
