This is the price we pay for encouraging critical thinking and personal responsibility in our children; just not in the States.
That this event took place across the pond should come as no surprise. In today's England, birthplace of priggishness, prudishness and Puritans, females really are encouraged to expect equality and to think for themselves. Were she my daughter, I'd buy her a pint and tell her, well done! Which brings up an interesting question...
If the smashing Ms. Magnanti could navigate the dark corridors of winked-at prostitution, all the while pursuing a whole lot better education than a majority of the folks reading this, what do you think might be the result of legalizing sex between consenting adults - no matter the circumstances, genders or individuals involved (all that guilt and shame wasted)? Free-range polyamory anyone?
Or, in the alternative, why not felonize the currently legal agreement of a woman exchanging sex for security, companionship and the occasional night on the town with a man with whom she resides for more than one evening? These "arrangements" - shacking up, marriage, one-night stands, etc. appear to me to differ from the cash-for-sex model of the streetwalker mainly in the number of trysts.
