Porn vs. Prostitution
flagooner
Everything written by this member is a fact.
On another thread someone wrote that Sugaring isn't much different than prostitution, just a nuance.
The very little I know about Sugaring suggests that it is prostitution, but that got me thinking.
How is porn any different than prostitution? Granted, the male actor isn't the one paying, but that isn't true all the time.
If porn is legal...
Why couldn't you pay an escort for an in call audition (wink wink) for a starring role in a porn shhot?

Also there’s recording keeping requirements - name and proof of age of performers, health records, payments and releases, etc
In the end, I think anytime you are paying someone to have sex, it can be in someways described as prostitution. My opinion is that it really doesn't matter. I don't find anything wrong with it, so I'm not going to define it.
Now why LE doesn't see it that way, I'm not sure.
It’s not LE per se. It’s the legislators. And for them, it’s the power to make people criminals for believing differently. If they make us criminals for little things, they can hold that over our heads. They want *everyone* to be a criminal, so that they can more easily be controlled.
There are a few hurdles to setting up a porn company for your own legal sexual pleasure. First you need to make sure it looks and operates like a real porn company. You don't need customers or to actually make money but you would need to setup an LLC, business bank account, and all of the other dressing. None of this terribly difficult but it is a PITA and makes it much harder to be anonymous.
Next you need to find a willing amateur model. Unless you want to be really deceptive on craigslist (which you don't remember we are trying to do this is a 100% legal way) you need to build up a resume. So you need to go on model mayhem and start contacting models and paying them for photo shoots. Many of the girls there will do nude modeling for pay. Then from there work your way up to more hardcore stuff once you have a resume.
Ultimately as you can gather it is not worth the immense effort and time. You could setup a production company and hire escorts. If you can successfully explain this to an escort, get her to sign a contract and a photocopy of her drivers license... So pretty much not going to happen.

There’s an odd line drawn in the sand - that separates sex for money from porn. It’s odd that this country is ok with one being legal - and not the other.
I know this country has Puritan roots - and still quite a few Puritan ideals. I think there will always be sexual repression here.
So - if I’m in VIP getting it on with a filthy whore (who was acting like a stripper) - and the VIP room has cameras - aren’t we shooting porn - and not engaging in prostitution? Granted - nobody would pay to watch me fuck.
I always thought just having my load on her face was more than enough compensation!
I still think of you the same, cutie! But fuck those guys trying to make you jump through hoops to get a damn purse.
Back to your porn analogy: actually the united states has had a history of try to ban porn. So why do they seemingly allow it? First Amendment implications, for one. Second, communities (like Anytown, USA) try to get around that with obscenity laws, which worked for awhile back when films where shown in XXX theaters or sold in shops on 8 mm film, 16 mm film, or VHS tapes. But in an era of the internet, i think the communities have largely given up, except for trafficking or pedophile porn.
It's just easier for them to fight prostitution, since they can attack the transaction. And it is easy to prosecute absent Constitutional protections. Court routinely deny defense based on First or Fourteenth Amendment defenses. Courts have said freedom of association doesn't extended to prostitution nor does it extend to illegal income. Both the courts and state legislatures seem to be statist WRT to our rights. fuckers. It's consenting adults, fuckers.
Basically, we allow it. Damn pearl clutchers about the fabric of society, both religious (right wing) and feminists (left wing). We allow them to legislate it as a criminal offense. The courts being statists, go along with them restricting our rights.
