True, but we are talking hypothetically about things being legal and whether that makes them OK.

So if a brothel was legal, would you be happy to have one next door?

And, in fact, the moral cost of prostitution (i.e. the "harm") is likely to be less when taking place in a Brothel, than for a street-walker. Yet the law says otherwise.

We really shouldn't take our moral cues from statute.

Exactly what I am getting at.

Something being legal does not necessarily make it OK, or indeed not OK.

And as balky12 has also rightly pointed out, the context of a given situation or activity also has a bearing on whether something is seen as acceptable or not because perception of 'harm' changes. Something legal can still cause 'harm' (in every way possible depending on the subject).

So legality, per se, should not be an automatic indicator of something being right.
 
The Sun brings back page three with a cracking pair of ****!

I now have absolutely no reason to open a newspaper when waiting for a haircut for food at the local Chinese.

Shame. I had gotten pretty good at disguising myself as a veteran newspaper reader.

The Sun's head of public relations Dylan Sharpe had refused to confirm that topless Page 3 models were being axed, saying it "is all just speculation, it is all wild speculation".

Former Page 3 pin-up turned bodybuilder Jodie Marsh, 36 said on Wednesday night said she was "happy" that the feature had seemingly been reinstated.

LELWUT?

Such vague. So, it could've been a publicity stunt and was never actually confirmed to be truly gone in the first place? And now it's back anyway? :confused:
