Wouldn't that be better? Seriously tho, I hate hate hate puritanical mentalities. This is 2004 for CHRIST'S SAKE!!!!! I often feel we're going backwards in human mental evolution. I guess that's called devolution. Anyway..... I think the liberals and the conservatives should perhaps just divide the country in half, retaining the constitution and call one The United States of the Enlightened and the United States of the Confused.

Reivided

But Rose, wouldn't we need to worry about who's brother was the governor of the state that decided where the line was drawn?

There are certainly acts between two consenting adults that I don't agree with, but that would mean I wasn't consenting to be one of them.  Seems like enough regulations to me.

Hypocracy and unenlightened psuedo morality is rampant in this country.  I further suggest the writings/musings of Bill Mahrer, Dennis Miller, P.J. O'Roarke, and George Carlin.

Question convention and authority,

"Selling is legal.  Sex is legal.  Why is selling sex illegal?" -George Carlin

If only all countries/states treated prostitution as we do downunder.  It's a business like any other - no different to running any business.  The amount of regulation is  a function of the size of the enterprise and the structure of the entity that carries it out ie publicly listed corporation (yes, we do have one!), SME, partnership, trust or sole operator.

Now, if I could just get sex officially recognised as a sport, think of the government funds that would flow my way .....

Just read this on the plane and was hoping someone would post it. I'd also love to hear from our international girls on this topic and the related article on immigration effects on the local escort economy.  Perrhaps Carrie is just the first of the 'second british invasion' first the Beattles and then the beavers...

Just had to go on record with that! I wish G.C. would run for pres!!!
