Who is more morally wrong, someone who sells their body for money or someone who buys it?

The goody goody making the assumption that their moral compass is straight enough to judge anyone else's life choices is the most wrong out of the three. This country really needs to get over the last vestiges of our puritan forefathers and get on with living.

Repub to the end.

morality is a value judgment. if you work, you sell some part of yourself, if you have a boss there is a buyer. you can take it from there.

Neither.... as long as both parties are consenting adults. I would say that if you are of majority age, you have the right to do with your body as you see fit. This would include drug usage as well. While I would think that selling your body for money or using drugs is amoral, it's not my body. As long as neither party is harming others with their actions, I don't see any problem with it at all.

Tax the poor !!!

Someone who buys it.

People in our country have taken (or are at least working on) God out of everything. So who is left to judge morality?

Should we go by our governments morals? Do they have any?

Do we want to go by my morals?

How about we go by Bobs?

It is not our governments job to legislate morality.

They are both equally wrong.

neither really, if both parties are consenting adults and both are aware of the nature of the transaction then it is not morally wrong.
the classical definition of a moral right as opposed to a moral wrong is this- "any action that would do the greatest harm to the greatest number is a moral wrong and conversely any action that does the greatest good for the greatest number is a moral right", in your example neither of the two parties is harming the other so long as it is by mutual consent and agreement- in fact the one selling is enriched and the one buying is satisfied so how is this wrong- if you wish to apply some religious view of morality to this scenario you could be here forever.

They are equally immoral but if you wanted the process to stop you have to start with the one selling it. Without the goods no sale of goods.
