I don't view women as sex objects either, in fact I might (have been) be more likely to want to pursue something past sex than a few girls I have slept with. But I really think prostitution should be legal. I think it's sad when young girls get involved, and I would hope I would instill better values and desires in any girl I ever raise, but I really don't see why it's a crime.
It's most likely a hanger on from more heavily religious times. The moral trappings and hypocrisies that surround the issue are astounding. Not to mention that legalizing it can make it a little safer for those involved.
As far as virginity, I agree there is way too much emphasis put on it, and I think any man that desires it so much is completely stupid. Again though, usually comes from religious/cultural misgivings.
