I don't think it should be legal. Oh, there are a few good side affects of legalizing -- such as regulating it so that the women have a better chance of staying STD free, reducing crime, etc... but (like with drugs) I'd say that the bad effect of legalizing it is worse.
That said, countries like Holland and Denmark with legal prostitution/pornography seem to be mostly doing okay... but still I would not support legalizing it.
