You're starting to make even less sense.That is because this is a loaded question. It has more than one single answer depending on every specific circumstance. Just a couple of those circumstances are, does the prostitute or the guy have an STD? Is the guy married and is he cheating on his wife?
There are so many other variables in the question that I can not even pretend to have all the right answers to it. Thus, it is a loaded question, but you already knew that.
That's not how I see it at all.
This is how I see it:
You made an absolute declarative statement, that there is no such thing as a victimless crime. As a general rule, I would agree with you. However there are exceptions. I simply provided you with one such exception to test how you would respond. Rather than being open-minded and objective, and acknowledging the obvious exception for what it is, you tap danced around it and essentially refused to attempt any semblance of intelletual honesty.
You fail.
Have a nice day.
Wow, I state that I can not answer your question with a simple one statement answer because it is complex, and you claim victory?
Have a nice run for political office someday...
You see, there is no single answer to the question, yet you want a single answer based on a broad circumstance. I didn't fail; you just don't see the fallacy in your own question.
Sometimes the prostitue can be the vctim. Sometimes the John can be the victim. Sometimes the victim can be a spouse, it depends on a set of variables you did not present. Thus, you submitted a faulty question. I am not "tap dancing", you just want me to pull an answer out of my ass when I am not even standing up.
You made a categorical statement and now you seem to want to tailor circumstances to fit the statement.
Let's take a 70 year old guy who hires a prostitute, enjoys her services and pays her. Who is the victim here?
