a woman partner was the basis for taking away your child, the recent Supreme Court ruling may change things for you in a positive way.  Talk to your lawyer about the implications of the decision for family law as it relates to gay people.

The United Supreme Court ruled that a Texas Law outlawing sodomy between consenting adults was unconstitutional. California and many other states got rid of those archaic laws years ago.  The ruling means nothing regarding the hobby.  Anti prostitution laws are state laws.

This was pointed out below (by me) and others. I think someone else mentioned that these things have "hyped" short-term effect but lasting long-term effects. So I guess this attitude you see (of cynicism) over what this means to us and this hobby immediately is an example of that.
