Summary/Abstract: The author analyses certain aspects related to prostitution, underlining the fact that, although the new Penal Code no longer incriminates this deed, it is still provided under Law no. 61/1991, representing a contravention punished through fine. In the author’s opinion, the lack of incrimination and the contravention application are not enough to eliminate all the negative consequences (sexually transmitted disease, abortion, human traffic with a view to compel them to supply sexual services, etc.) of the hidden exercising of this old profession. Therefore, in the author’s opinion, this activity should become lawful.
