Question on legalization of the oldest profession on earth

[zingao]

I was thinking, how do the female providers feel about the legalization of the services provided by the ladies?

Meaning, are the ladies for it or against it?

Please shout out your preference please....


As a foreword, I will say this...

I had seen an interview on the WWW of a porn star that she said she stopped filming and instead went 100% into providing.

Her reasoning was that if she was filmed by the major Adult Video Companies (Bangbros, Hustler, Naughty America, Anabolic, Playboy, etc...), she was paying tax on it.

For example, she quoted that she would get paid 1500 dollars to 3000 dollars for a scene.

But then she had to pay taxes.

By the way, this porn star was not the most beautiful woman out there, but, she had something about her that made her sexy attractive.

In any event, she went on to say that if she did only providing, she paid ZERO tax.


ok, that was one thought of mine, I wanted to share with regards to my argument against legalization.


Well, then, I had the opportunity to have had a menage a trois with two amazing ladies. This was several years ago.

One of the two ladies was an Asian lady with incredible tits and super flat abdomen and blonde hair. This Asian lady had a beautiful face and body. She is (was) a 10.

Outside of this, her sexual appetite was very high.

She told me in between my 1st and 2nd pop, while I was recovering, that she was earning between 5,000 to 10,000 dollars a week.

By the way, she wanted to go first.

She was telling me how much cash she was making.


SO that is it, what say you all?

I am for decriminalization not legalization.

I absolutely get the distinction between decriminalization and legalization i.e. regulating, The Hobby.


We are now nearly two years past the most liberal administration ever and they couldn't/wouldn't move on opening up The Hobby in any way. Tere was even one Supreme court decision that referenced European law (not regarding prostitution) in the formal court opinion. I'd like to see a case having to do with The Hobby ruled on based on European law . . . or Canadien, Japanese Thai . . .just about anybody.


With the current administration I don't see anything happening in this arena for another six years . . .whatever happens in 2018 or 2020.

My wife has decided to run for office in our state legislature. She and I are both Libertarians. Two weeks ago the Party had a rally where they invited a group of the candidates to be guest speakers. They had come up with a short list of suggested topics, my wife went through the list and she selected 'Legalizing Prostitution'. She wrote an essay on her position and she had me grammar check it for her.

I was kind of surprised that she would pick that topic.

A local TV station showed up and they filmed a brief part of the rally [my wife was shown on TV, but they did not get her speech].

I think that she did really well with her speech. She was the only speaker that had actually written a speech. The other speakers all spoke off-the-cuff. [and their performances were horrible, IMHO].

I don't. What IS the difference between legalizing it, and saying "its no longer a criminal act'??

[Jxoxo]

Like everything else its all about money, its illegal because they can't tax it. Look drugs have been being prescribed legally for centuries and at a price sell them on the streets and you'll do time here we are 2018 and marijuana is legal why because there's a profit to the government. I personally would not enjoy being taxed but it is the way of the world government wants their cut. My biggest issue is that girls who seek to keep their identity private and have a "daytime" job would be negatively impacted, reporting would take away the privacy of it I would think. Like in a lot of states strippers have to be registered to dance.

Legalization? No.
Decriminalization? Yes!

[MactheKat]

In the book "Brothel", a feminist went to the Nevada legal brothels and interviewed the working girls. She had been an outreach worker in Times Square, NYC when it was a hot bed of street prostitution. She concluded that legalization would result in far safer work conditions for the working girls. I have discussed this with some girls and they are not so sure that legalization is the best for them. They object to: sharing their earnings with the house, the regulations (work hours set by the house), and having to pay taxes on their earnings.


You will pay a lot for safety and legitimacy.

Decriminalization yes, it favors both ladies and clients. It is about consenting adults. Legalization, oh HELL NO, then it is about government control and will cost twice as as much with less service.

God love our independent ladies who provide a needed service at a fair price.

I think what most people mean by "decriminalization" is that it would still illegal, but enforced with civil penalties, the same way that parking tickets or code violations are handled. Simply put, you'd get a ticket and pay a fine.

No jail, no arrest, no criminal records, etc.

At least I think that's what most on here mean.

THIS!!! +1000

Legalization would mean/require regulation. That would result in a huge mess. Ignoring the issue of taxation for the moment, does anyone really want any state of federal government agency making and enforcing regulations on CSW (consensual sex work)??? I for one definitely do not. The possibilities for abuse, stupidity and all sorts of terrible ideas are almost infinite.

De-criminalizing CSW would not only result in a better, safer and more positive marketplace, it would also eliminate much (not all) of the "darker side" of this activity/marketplace as it currently exists. I'm talking of course about pimps, underage workers, and people who are being trafficked or forced against their will into sex work. Bringing this activity out of the legal shadows would make the darker elements easier to identify and combat. It's a pretty simple concept really.

Unfortunately, I don't see that happening until the politicians figure out a way to use this issue to win more votes. They are bigger w****s when it comes to votes than any sex worker will EVER be. I think there is some hope. The current trend in the legal status of pot/weed is encouraging, perhaps someday commercial sex between consenting adults will follow....just without the regulation......

[Tiny]

10% so far are against legalization. That's nuts. Why are they here on this site?

[KalyEscort]

Both.

Yoy should be allowed to work as the rest of the economically active population as in The Netherlands, Germany or Swizerland.

You start your own biz, make registration in the Chamber of Commerce, pay the taxes derived and You can have access to the benefits as any worker has. Each sex worker must have her health book with regular checks, the police must have their area of ​​control of human trafficking, that if they visit you and ask for your papers (license, registration in the Chamber of commerce and health book) and if you are under the abuse of some mafia, police can give you protection and move you to a safe place.

In the Netherlands, with the money raised by prostitution and soft drugs, they have excellent social services, with a large budget to subsidize the most vulnerable sector of society.

Not to mention the security issue, where a lot of psycho abusers, on physically and psychologically way of sex workers because they know they can't go to the police to report, would end their perverse game because the worker could make the complaint for abuse. A lot of violence could be stopped.

Well, one of the biggest arguments AGAINST prostitution, is the 'sex trafficked woman and underage girls'. If its legalized and people have those CSW regulations, then wouldn't that eliminate (OR severely CURTAIL the # of underage/trafficked women?"
