Getting laid is a basic need, like breathing, eating and parking a chocolate hostage.
All three of these are things that have always, do, and will always happen. Accepting that, legalising it, and overseeing it results in fewer deaths, less violence, heath care for prostitutes, extra tax income, and a transparent democracy.
Amongst other benefits.
The misery they cause the people who get caught up in their personal psychodrama is unacceptable. But I think this type of problem is orthogonal to politicians who engage in illegal activities (e.g. being gay hasn't been illegal for a long time), it is more of a loss of perspective.
