Is prostitution illegal in the US?

[SexEPid]

Now that I have your attention......


Let's have some fun...



BRING OUT THE PROSITUTES!

No, joking again.


I'd like to ask what everyone's opinion on Europe is!?
I would love to go travel there next summer.
Which places to avoid, and such.

Thanks!

[SexEPid]

Oh, I am quite aware.

That's one of my motives for going there.

Why yes, yes it is.
In every state but Nevada, and all the women are Canadians, so I never go there!

i think legalized prostitution would be generally good for society too bad its a religious taboo for many.. ah well.


prostitutes with degrees in psychiatry would be interesting apparently many men use them as shrinks too. who wouldn't want to sleep with their shrink.(assuming they are the right sex)
here's a book on the subject... studies at the mustang ranch"Brothel"

Haha!

I can handle the CANADIAN women. It's just the UKRAINIAN CANADIAN women that scare me

but seriously... i never been to europe. but it's prolly just like everywhere else... it's got it's sh!tholes, as well as hot spots.

even in nevada, it is only a few counties (maybe just one). it certainly isn't the whole state (and not las vegas either)

Prostitution is not illegal in the United States. That is there is no federal law against it.
It is however illegal in all states except Nevada, and in Nevada it's only legal in some places.

I'm probably one of the most travelled people on this board and i can say the three countries in europe i liked the best were switzerland, greece, and spain. england and france preety much suck, russia is ok, if you go i would spend a good amount of time in st. petersburg.

where were you thinking about going?

Well it really depends on how you define prostitution. Escort services are legal and a lot of them are basically prostitution services. Technically they are paying for the person's time and if sex happens it happens.

Don't know much aboot Europe though.

I live in Nevada and it is legal outside of Clark County (Las Vegas) and Reno, other than that there are many brothels here. I live in Las Vegas and there are brothels about 1 hour from town.

Sure it's "legal" in the US. You practically saw Bill Clinton engaging the services of one. And oh yeah...he paid for it big-time. Course if you've got connections it's "Law? What Law?"

Let's also talk about Corporate Fraud. Let us introduce that law against it starting with any fraud from 1960's, and we can lock up Dick and George for 10 years to start with.

If you really think a president cheating on his wife is worse than a president as well as his vice president having committed corporate fraud then you are pretty dumb. But then anyone voting for Bush is.

 

[Bluefront]

WTF... in the context of prostitution, Bill and Monica....where does corporate fraud fit in? Course if you're a Clinton fan (yuck), I begain to see the connection.

When the choice is Bush or Gore, the person isn't so "dumb" anymore. There are many people I'd choose over GWB, but Gore is far from being one of them. He'd be about as good for our country as Carter was.

Shure it's legal. In the US they call em politicians. Anything you want. All ya have to do is PAY for it.

 

[snow patrol]

It's not legal in the UK..

 

[nagger]

It isn't legal in Portugal also.

That would be false, you have been blinded by your own instinctive nature to procreate, you must realize that just because you can don't mean you should, and just because it looks good to you now doesn't mean it's not consequential in the future

um yea

In the Netherlands it's legal as long if it's done inside brothels.
Although street prositution will only be dealt with if it causes problems, some cities even built several roads including facilities (rest-rooms) for the "freelance" hookers so they won't cause preblems elsewhere.

In Amsterdam, at least, there are windows all around the red-light district. Behind the window (door made of plexiglass) stands a woman waiting to please you. You basically step up to the window and barter for a price and what you want. Then, you step in and there is either a bed just behind the door or down a little hallway. If you are nice to the ladies, you can usually get what you what for 50 Guilders (around $20 - $25). If you want a combination of two things, you generally have to double that.

Of course, there are good looking women, and then there are women to stay away from. Closer to the actual Redlight district you get, generally the trashier the woman. But, if you look around, there are def plenty of good looking ladies.

I've never personally partaken in such things, but a couple travelling compainions have. They really enjoyed it and while you are nervous when you approach and get started, it quickly fades once you get down to business.
