I don't see anything particularly terrible in the act of prostitution, but I certainly don't want to do it. To me it seems less immoral than say working in advertising (an element of which involves lying to people) but then I seem to have some quite unusual ideas about what professions are immoral. Havine sex with someone you didn't like just strikes me as bugger all fun, something along the lines of cleaning out a septic tank (which I'd also be willing to do for a million quid).
I find it puzzling that people find it at all surprising that politicians can't keep their dick in their trousers though, or that this somehow makes them unsuitable for a career in public service (oh, if only that were what they really did). It seems to me that the most important quality in a politician would be (political) integrity. The notion that this should have anything to do with their sexual proclivities is highly confusing to me.
