Prostitution is one of the most controversial themes when it comes to sex life. For over two thousand centuries, the "love for sale" has been tolerated and promoted, prohibited, prosecuted and respected. Generations of pimps and bawds, institutions and whole cities have earned their living in this way. Prostitution has also been a secure source of income for church organizations. The church's understanding of this matter has changed since the beginning of the Reformation. Luther's recommendation to abolish prostitution was for example, the introduction of child marriage (from the age of 12), which one could not really describe as an improvement. Until today, despite numerous laws, bans and political initiatives, there has been no success to end prostitution. Despite dedicated feminist gay movements, the introduction of penalties for freeman and many more, it is an unbroken business sector. In this case, much more than just the law is needed, above all, education, better paid working places and wealth should be encouraged worldwide. And there will still be people who will slip into illegal prostitution, like for example through the abuse of childhood or dependence on drugs. It is and remains a central problem of humanity.
