Get yer chops around this! ...BROTHELS!!
 

Yeh.

Brothel's, should they be around? Should Whorring be legalised? What are your views on one of the oldest professions aroond.

Discuss.

Javelin.

...whatever.

Yes, yes they should. But they shouldn't fund the low class places with the ditzy stupid chicks who are just holes to fill. Legalized borthels should be an art. A place where you'd find sex you wouldn't normally find from other women.

I think a woman has the privelage of using her body how she wants.

Prostitution is legal in New Zealand methinks. I just think paying a stranger for sex is most ickarous. Have sex with someone you want to have sex with, not a disposable vagina.

All men pay for sex, and those that pay up front get the better price. Yeah, it should be legal. It employs people and keeps disease down. By keeping disease down I mean that licensed brothels screen people and their employees and stake their reputations on being cleanly. Also, the health care provided by the jobs keeps other non-sexual diseases down. I think making it illegal is a joke, people will always pay for sex if they want to. I'm just waiting for the U.S. to formally declare a war on sex so the price goes down and the market is flooded with overseas poontang.

so, you can throw away vaginas? hmm...

anywho, I don't really care, letem do what they want

It seems so. Look at most Venezuelan relationships.

I'm personally against it. I may not have a very extensive knowledge on the behavior of diseases and epidemics and such, but it seems to me that something like that would only promote the spread of STDs... which isn't... good.

No, it does the opposite. It keeps diseased hos off the street and helps pay so the hos stay healthy and keep putting out.

I think it's fine. It's a woman's own choice if she wants to sell her body. And some even play it smart and are picky, only having good looking customers and not the dirty old men :p.

Registerd brothels are bound to a shitload of rules. At least it's a lot saver in terms of STD's then picking up a random street hooker, since brothels can not employ girls who have and STD.

If it keeps them off the street i dont mind

It's like legalised abortions and safe-injection rooms. It's going to happen anyway so it may as well be regulated and safe.

:lol:

I dont see a problem with it to be honest. If people can make money out of something then you can never really get rid of it.

Hmmm... I suppose that's true. But then again, brothels can't can't really control their clients, and I'm sure accidents will happen. Even with brothel regulations, I think it's safe to say that STD infections will spread at least a bit more than normal.

Also, I don't know what constitutes a brothel, like if they need a permit or something like that, but I'm sure that there will be plenty of... shiftier "brothels" that will simply use the title to make their prostitution legal.

Again, I'm not saying on that I'm an expert on the subject or anything, but I can't imagine that the introduction of brothels will halt the rate of STDs' spread, let alone lessen it.

Am I going to get a truckload of warnings when I say I thought you were an expert? :p

Ofcourse it won't halt STD's, and thats not the point. The point is that the ligitimate Brothels don't employ STD infected girls, as the girls are subject to monthly tests. Unlike the random street hooker who lets you do your thing without any form of protection.

Yes... but wouldn't there be even more of those... the random street hookerness? What exactly constitutes a brothel? Surely prostitution in general would be much more difficult to stamp out with the lines between "brothel" and "guy telling a bunch of disease-ridden hookers to live in a house" blurred. :p

Monthly tests are fine and good, but it only takes one day to get (and transmit) an STD.

I know that halting the spread of STDs isn't the point of brothels. I'm just saying that I can't imagine that STDs' rate of spread not growing at all if brothels were legalized.

My understanding is, at least thats the case here in Hol-hooker-land (:p), that brothels are regularly checked up by agencies and stuff.

And I dunno about STD's perce. It could be good, or it could tone it down. But I doubt it will actualy make it rise.

BTW, is this just be or is claiming that every prostitute has an STD a little prejudging and rude?

Look, I think its an honest living, more honest than a lot of things I can think of. Legalize it already and tax the piss out of it. Its safer, it makes the government money, whats not to love?

I'm in agreement with Stad, whores make a tonne of cash, it's just a shame the majority of Street-Walkers are doing it to fund a habit. I watched a programme on Whorring a few months back, and one woman said it's like a Triangle, with the well-paid Escorts up top and the Crack-Whores at the bottom, which is true.

I know a few Crack-Whores, and they're clean and always use protection (well, from what they say, but they don't look like your typical STD-farm, unlike some) so the stereotype of all whores having diseases isn't true.

Brothels, to me, is about safety. Not only would the clients be checked over, but they'd be in an enviroment were they'd be afraid to do anything untoward. They wouldn't beat the Prostitute up, they wouldn't do "too much" and the like.

On Used's topic though, they should be a fine art. They should be luxurious and splendid. Classy. There's a programme in the UK about Nevada's brothel (Moonlight Bunny Ranch) and that just seems so seedy and, though 'professional', whorry.

"What? A Whore house...Whorry? Nay!"

Just because someone sells sex, doesn't mean they have to sell their self-respect on Ebay. Fo' shizz.

In the UK, we have quite a few Brothels but they're just "stealthy" in the way they put themselves across. We also have unofficial Red Light districts.

It'd be lush for everybody if they just hurried up and legalised it, methinks. As the Whores who want to get off the drugs (most say they do) can do, whilst the girls who want to get into whorring, can do safely.

Yes. Kind of like Geishas. Brothels should even be like a kind of spa. You're getting, safe, experienced sex. This should cost good money.

I guess I'm just an ethical bitch.

Don't some of you people just find sexing a stranger to be even slightly odd? Just... Bleh. If you're that promiscuous, watch tv or something, Christ.

I dunno. Sexing an unknown hot sexy piece of ass has a certain allure.

I think sex should be reserved as an act of love, not lust. But hey, it's not like that happens these days anyway.

I'm kidding, of course. XP

Well, STDs aside, I still don't agree with prostitution in general, but I have no other legitimate points to argue over; I'm pretty much in the same boat as SM. Nothing to squabble over, of course, with morals being relative and whatnot.

"Don't some of you people just find sexing a stranger to be even slightly odd?"

I see where you're coming from, but society as is isn't like that. So, why not make a bit of cash from it? From my experience, i've always done things with strangers to get more experience so that when i'm with somebody i know...i'm good.

"I think sex should be reserved as an act of love, not lust"

I see sex as a lustful thing. Whilst 'making love' is the act of love itself.

Brothels should also cater to both sides of the fence.

"Kind of like Geishas."

Oh my, yes! I love Geishas!! I'd love to run a Brothel that had a Burlesque feel to it, personally. I think girls in tophats and bowler hats is trés hot! And with canes!! Heavy eye make-up, too. Black. Bright Red lipstick.

Huzzah.

I'm of the same ideal, though I don't think you could fall in love with a prostitute that quickly.

"though I don't think you could fall in love with a prostitute that quickly"

Oh, i agree. If at all.

...by 'both sides of the fence' i meant Queer and Muffy. I should've been clearer.

Thats not the point, you pay a prostitute for the sex, don't you?

If prostitution is going to be illegal, then using them should be too. But of course, the politicians will never pass that law. Old habits die hard, after all.

To my understanding, it was illegal to hire a prostitute, but the prostitute wouldn't get prosecuted. Something like, if the buyer actually pays for the intercourse, it's deemed illegal.

Read the quote, eedjot. I confused him saying catering to both sexes as to catering to both sex and lovemaking.

Legalising scarlet-collar workers seems like an excellent idea to me. We need to throw away our taboos and realise there is a biological urge to satisfy ourselves sexually that neither contributes to nor displaces love.

Applying rules instead of driving the practice underground is going to give people the option of doing that safely. There will probably still be underground prostitution. It would charge less than those services that provide ritzy, lazurious environments, which is how they'd still maintain custom, but it would be up to the individual to decide what service to go for.

I suppose there'd also have to be low-budget brothels to compete with the underground whoring. They're not stylish, but they're affordable and safe. Like youth hostels, except with the safety.
