So yesterday, we were sitting by the water looking over at the New York skyline when me and Eric started talking about legalizing drugs and how much sense that made. That conversation moved on for a bit to the point where we said this: "So Leslie, what are your thoughts about legalizing prostitution?" With a stunning opening line like this, how could we resist a conversation that meandered from legalizing prostitution to the American conception of freedom, and then through the social and emotional ramifications of sex...followed quickly by what laws and morals should have in common...and eventually ending at the age old abortion question. Of course, we didn't get anywhere and no one's worldview was changed but it was a great conversation nonetheless. Sitting by the water, the key to all intellectual stimulation.
