As someone who has seen firsthand the devastating effects of loneliness and touch starvation on men in our society, I am advocating for a radical change. The isolation many men experience can lead to an increased rate of suicides and sexual assaults. This is not just a personal observation but is backed by research indicating that social isolation can lead to severe mental health issues (Source: American Psychological Association).

Sexual interaction should be considered a basic human right. It's time we rethink our societal norms and consider government-sponsored prostitution as one potential solution. We propose that every man should be guaranteed at least one free visit to a prostitute per month, sponsored by the government.

This proposal involves more than just providing access; it also includes regulating the industry to ensure quality service and fair wages for sex workers. By doing so, we could transform the negative image associated with prostitution into something positive - recognizing it as an essential service contributing to overall societal wellbeing.

The Netherlands has shown us that regulated prostitution can work effectively with benefits such as reduced crime rates related to sex work (Source: Dutch Ministry of Justice). We need your support in urging our government officials to consider this innovative approach towards addressing loneliness among men while also improving conditions for sex workers.

Please sign this petition if you believe in redefining societal norms around sex work and acknowledging it as part of basic human rights.
