But they should be upfront about it in their privacy policy, so people are aware of it when they post.

I posted a link to the privacy policy.

When did conservatives start leading the fight to legalize prostitution?

When liberals stopped fighting for equal rights.

Liberals are fine and dandy with equal rights, that is until someone does something they do not like.

Liberals claim they are for equal rights. Deep down inside they are bigots just like everyone else.

Conservatives have no issue with telling women(and men) what to do with their body.

It is liberals who throw a fit about conservatives telling women what to do with their body... and then they turn around and tell women what to do with their body just the same.

You didn't answer the question. What interested me most is your automatic assumption that NYPD = liberal.

Isn't New York city and state supposed to be left leaning progressives? If so, why is prostitution illegal?

What two consenting adults do is none of our business.

How can new york apply one set of rules to gays, but a different set of rules to prostitution?

Gays have what to do with this? Stick to the subject.

I support legalizing prostitution with appropriate safeguards for the individuals actually doing the work.

Attitudes towards prostitution have more to do with our patriarchal society than they do with the political demographics of a particular region.

I'm a big proponent of legalizing prostitution, I've just never seen anyone stupid enough to claim that conservatives are leading that charge.

What do gays have to do with this?

If those were gay men who had condoms, would they be accused of prostitution? Probably not. The police department would be accused of profiling. Since this is women we are talking about, and a demonized demographic, nobody cares.

Besides all of that lets apply the logic by gays and use that same logic on prostitution. What consenting adults do is none of the governments business.

The government needs to stay out of the bedroom.

I doubt anyone is leading the charge to legalize prostitution.

They are a small minority, women, no voting block, no large financial contributions to political parties,,,.

If you knew anything about Texas you wouldn't be talking out your ass.

They have the best food out there. Although this seems to be an uncalled for comment.

I'm not acquainted with Texas law concerning prostitution; my main point was that when/if caught, the clients of the prostitute are given a comparative hand-slap as opposed the penalty towards the prostitute.

Libertarians are, and as far as Democrats are concerned liberatarians ARE conservatives.

Labels are stupid.

Of course I know that.

Does not change the fact that if a gay male was caught with condoms and charged, there would be outrage from the glbt community.

I have read that the RNC does generate more money for Prostitutes than the DNC does....

NYPD is liberal? Liberal would be licensed sex workers that requires a monthly STD exam and passing an enrolment course.
