But lots of countries, including several developed ones, have legalized prostitution if the chart in this Wiki page is to be believed? If you include the Nordic model (as Maine appears to be implementing), this widens the number of countries to include like 8 developed ones? Are Spain, Finland, Poland, Portugal, Italy, the Netherlands and the UK suffering for either having selling sex decriminalized, or actually legalizing prostitution even if pimping remains illegal?
