Prostitution, Drugs and Legalizing Things

Being a lot older from when I first started this blog, I finally see how ugly the overall look is 😂. 

Hopefully I make up for this lack of aesthetic sense in my catchy headings and immensely, thought-provoking and enjoyable content..(Please keep all false criticisms about my statements to the end, Thank you).

So.. How does one start a controversial topic such as the one below🤔.

I think a slightly "inappropriate" picture would do a pretty satisfactory job, if I do say so myself:

You're probably wondering, "What's so inappropriate about him uploading a random bird, who he probably doesn't know, 's picture onto his obscure blog for random people to see?..... On second thou-", stop fucking wondering without context Nigga.. geez. And for the people who know who's in the picture at first glance.. Yous deserve some acknowledgement and applause; for everyone else.. Google "Brittney White" with your own discretion, I'd also recommend using Incognito mode 👀. 

Ok, so for anyone too scared (or in a place too public to take risks 😂), Brittney White is an "actress", my favourite "actress" to be precise🤤 (ignore the quotation marks; if it wasn't for the few people that would disagree with me grouping her alongside boring, uninteresting and none impactful actresses, the likes of Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Lawrence, they wouldn't be there). Now, Brittney's job is legal in most part's of the world with no questions asked, but a very similar occupation to her's isn't. This occupation is called sex work or, more familiarly known, prostitution. 

Taking a few seconds to actually think on these two professions more critically, you may come to ask yourself, "What actually is the difference?", well I think a good source for spotting differences would be from almighty Wikipedia 🙇🏿‍♂️. 

So what does Wikipedia say? 
Well, Wikipedia describes a pornographic film actor as: "A person who performs sex acts in video that is usually characterized as a pornographic movie".
While it describes prostitution as: "The business or practice of engaging in sexual activity in exchange for payment".
So yeah, it's that simple, pornographic actors don't get paid, The End..
But on a serious note, I'm pretty sure most of us know pornstars make bank; so what actually is the difference? Well, one key word I noticed was "video", so in other words, you can perform sexual acts for money, as long as you're recording yourself for the world to view. If I'm off in anyway, hit me up in the comments.

When you think about the above point, it actually looks as if a scenario like the one below played out:
George Bush: "Bill! Are you with her again! How much did you pay her? I want to watch 😭"
Bill Clinton: "Fuck off George, I'm busy"
George Bush: "Pretty please Bill, I just want to watch"
Bill Clinton: "God damn George, would you actually piss off, you're increasing my heart rate and going to make me c-"
George Bush: "It's over already 😭😭, I swear I'll never forgive you for this. I'm going to rat you out and when I become president, I'll make sure nothing like this ever happens again!"
Hillary Clinton: "I'm a woman!"
Bill Clinton: "Yes you are dear, but if only you knew that wasn't a personality trait.. I wouldn't be "picking" this person over you.. If only dear.."
Hillary Clinton: "Wall is bad, Pokemon go to polls, Yes."

So yea, George entered office and said "Prostitution = bad, Porn = good" and noone disagreed with him. (True history.. You want to see my sources? Piss off!)

On a serious note, the way it's set is visibly wack!

My philosophy in life is, as long as you don't physically harm anyone (Other than you're self, if you so choose to) you should be able to do whatever makes you happy; this includes having sex for 24 hours if you can and like, or being stoned off your ass for however long the machine elves tell you you've been gone 😂. I know it isn't a perfect philosophy, but, to me, it's a pretty decent guideline to live off. 

So now, putting our legs in the shoes of an average looking 21 year old woman (let's call her Nymphi), who really enjoys sex and wishes she could do it none stop but instead has to get a job where she's earning shit all and feels miserable about her life everyday. Nymphi knows her passion is sex, if she wants to work with her passion, her only option is porn. But Nymphi is an introvert, if she chooses to enter porn, to her, she loses her privacy, she loses her peace of mind and she loses her dignity; Nymphi doesn't want that. Obviously there could be another person (let's call him Jigleo) who could want to enter porn for the fame, the recognition and maybe pride, but Nymphi isn't built the same way as Jigleo and doesn't see things the same way. What choices does Nymphi have? Enter porn and feel degraded? Continue living miserably hoping one day she'd come to like what she does? or enter into sex work illegally and have no system set up to protect her from abusers, and even risk jail time if reporting any misconduct of a client. It's a hard knock life for some..

Thinking about Nymphi's situation, how many people do you think are in her predicament? Check pornhub's pornstar page and do quick swipe through the pages to see how many you find, has your estimate changed?

Seeing how absurd the laws against prostitution seemingly are, one can only wonder where this grey barrier within laws extends. I think the title of this post makes it quite obvious where I'm seguing to 😂. So let's talk about the 51 billion dollar annual war America has been fighting since Mr. Nixon (Yea, the one president that had to resign from presidency over scandals) came around and was like this is good and this isn't good.

So, the 51 billion dollar war (sometimes referred to the war on drugs as a euphemism), what's it's objective? 
Wikipedia describes the war on drugs as: "A campaign, led by the U.S. federal government, of drug prohibition, military aid, and military intervention, with the stated aim being to reduce the illegal drug trade in the United States". Yo.. The military is part of this?? Wikipedia, define overkill, Wikipedia: "The above sentence my guy". Also, being the nosey superpower it is, this war has expanded more worldwide than just America alone, the UN even has some say to this. In America, marijuana has just now been gradually moved out from the list of Schedule I drugs (Drugs which have no potential use medically), even though for decades there has been proof of it's health benefits in different medical applications. In some states like Texas, you can spend a whole half a year in a jail cell for a single joint of weed (that might not sound too bad, but take the time to think about it, 6 months, gone just like that, and now you have it permanently on your record, hindering how easily you can find a decent job. Life isn't easy..). And yet it's a lot worse in a lot of other places around the world, for example in the Philippines apparently possession of marijuana warrants death.. And these are just cases on marijuana.. Imagine how something like DMT would be cracked down on.

Thinking about it, this incarceration of persons for drug possession, who does it actually benefit? Even if these persons are addicted, how are they being assisted by being incarcerated (sometimes even dangerously as an immediate withdrawal on some of these things may even be life threatening). If it's to help their family members, I think spending tax payers money to pay for fewer weeks in rehab rather then months in jail where upkeep would burn through far more tax payer funds, would help the family all the more. To quote a video I once watched "Who the hell has the right to tell me how and how not I choose to change my consciousness?". But being frank, these are just my extreme views, definitely there is a need for some sort of regulation on these things, but I completely disagree with an outright ban and the illegal status of all the above.

One thing I feel that should not be done is an immediate unregulated legalization of these activities, sudden freedom as such is simply looking for unnecessary calamity. Instead, I believe widespread decriminalization should take place and those jailed for these activities should be freed (let's have child molesters take their spots and sentences instead), from there a more incremental, gradual and studied regulation of these activities should take place in states prepared for the leap. Additional funding may also be sent to states willing to participate for research and other general public gains, this could act as an incentive.

Surely these changes may take more than a decade to be fully accepted and regulated for maximum human betterment, but I'm sure as soon as countries move away from irrational and/or a religious based belief mentality of setting laws, the world we live in will be a far more enjoyable place to live for all. As soon as we all agree with Aristotle that philosophers of sound mind along side scientists and researchers should set our laws and how our states should be governed and not by power hungry politicians, the faster this more enjoyable and tolerating reality shall come to fruition.

To wrap up the discussion, in the ideal world (that we may one day enjoy), all should be able to talk about there interests and passions without negative criticism from people who choose not to look deeper than the label "taboo" in a lot of activities descriptions. It might also do us all a great deal to remember that, not too long ago, women voting was also "taboo" in many places. Signing off..



P.S : I do not believe in the slightest that these things should be perfectly normalized and seen synonymous to drinking water, some (if not most) should be viewed in a similar manor by which drinking alcohol is seen. These things aren't for all and those that refuse to partake should be respected just as much as those who do. The goal is Tolerance, Acceptance and Humanity.
