"Prohibition"

I was seeing an analogy to marijuana. It seems to be everywhere.

Interesting because my background is in law and I have a fascination with history. With that said,

Up until the early 1960's there was a bordello in every American city, size medium and up. Everyone knew where it was, including the local Sheriff. A coaltion of feminists and religious zealots had them shut down. That started a cycle that has now come full circle. To quote a recent movie, "The Sexual Revolution has ended and we won. The moment that pole dancing became mainstream exercise, women lost."

Everyone, and I mean everyone, knows that extras can be had in strip clubs. Escorts are just a few mouseclicks away. Prosecutions are selective and done only for P.R. purposes. Wives know that the hubby getting worked up at the SC will improve their sex at home (this is often acted out on TV and in movies).

So, everyone knows the score and everyone is in denial. At a site I write for, an author did a per capita comparison of the Netherlands and the US and found that property taxes would drop by 80% if the US licensed, regulated, and taxed legalized bordellos.

Speaking of bordellos, the bordellos in Nevada have begged to be taxed. The state refuses to do so because doing so would legally recognize (instead of just tolerating them). So, the bordellos only pay a 1,500.00 annual business license fee.

i just got home from a surprisingly inexpensive visit with a young/hot/friendly black escort that is just passing through my area followed up by a few rounds of drinks at a nearby bar tended by a longtime friend of mine that basically serves me for free, but i always tip her well, so my slightly muddled thoughts are that i just indulged in inexpensive sex and alcohol and i'm happy! :-)


i will add, fuck sexual prohibition!

There are certain parallels.

Alcohol technically serves a purpose. It contains calories so it has nutritional values. More importantly, becasue of boiling, it was a safe drinking supply before the invention of municipal water supplies. In olden times, they even made 'low' brews with significantly less alcohol for young poeple to provide a save drinking source.

Prostitution theoretically serves a purpose. Sexual relief. But there is a bigger issue involved here. No government sould regulate the sex life of consenting adults. Whether that's sex for cash or gays vs. staight.

Totally off topic but Dudesters post about bordellos being shut down by feminists and religious zealots reminded me that three times in a club I used to work at, a group of girls from a local church group would come into the club and give all the dancers little pink bags with soap and shampoo and cards with the church groups name and phone number. They were trying to get girls out of dancing and they truly believed all of us dancers were doing the devils work.

As for alcohol and recreational sex, I think they have a lot of similarities. They go well together, for one thing, and I'm sure the temporary satisfaction from both individually makes them both addictive.

While there are parallels, I don't think they are equivalent. After all, if there was no alcohol, the human race would still survive. We're hard wired by billions of years of evolution to want sex; it's even more imperative, from a genetic and evolutionary standpoint, than eating. Man made laws aren't going to change that in any significant, or even noticeable, way.

Gmd- good point. I agree

There is an old joke that between the Baptists and the moonshiners there are some counties in the South that will always be dry. The ultra religious people want alcohol to be illegal because no one should have any fun and the criminals want alcohol to be illegal so they can sell it at ridiculous prices. The same goes for illegal drugs, if there is ever a serious push to legalize anything that looks like it has a chance of succeeding, including marijuana, the drug dealers will invest more money into lobbying to keep the drugs illegal than the churches will. If there is a push to legalize prostitution, I'll bet that organized crime fights hard against it because if prostitution is legalized their profits will go WAY down.

Why was this thread bumped?

Ask yourself Dougster or perhaps tumblingidiot.

You're the who admitted that Hard4Dancwrs is you posting under a different alias. So why don't you answer?

Just bumping your own stupid topics, I guess.

I admitted nothing. Ask the Hard4Dancers here why he bumped all my old threads. Or ask yourself.

By the way, he or you or tumblingidiot spells the name H-a-r-d-4-D-a-n-c-e-r-s. NOT Hard4Dancwrs, dummy.

I'm getting bored with your pathetic ass. Bye.

Sorry, tard, here's the thread where you admit it right there in black and white:

And pointing typos is the best you got? Btw, there is no need for the words "the" or "here" in

"Ask the Hard4Dancers here"

dummy! LMFAO!

Now go run, alutard, run!

*** SLAM DUNKED THAT FAGGOT ALUTARD !!! ***

Hey,hey, hey. No need to get mad about typos. Blame the I-Phone, it's what I do.
