afaik, prostitution is either legal or partially legal on the majority of Western countries.

Normally its considered legal to sell but not legal to buy.

Prostitution is primarily conducted by women, and this is a way for them to still seek protection and healthcare while still technically criminalising the practice.

In most European countries it is legal to both sell and to buy. What is illegal almost everywhere is being a pimp.
