Probably not. But when I saw the title, the first
thing to pop into my mind was Mal dissing Inara.

I hear ya. She's waaaayyyy to elegeant to be
associated with a place like that.

It's was the "whore academy" thing that instantly
put me in mind of Mal. "Did they teach you that
in Whore Academy?".

So many things cause "firefly moments".

I may have just become way too liberal or perhaps I've been brainwashed by FF, but I think the idea of legalizing prostitution is a great idea. They could set up schools all over the place, and require physicals . . .oh, and tax the hell out of it.

Obviously you've become too liberal when your first impulse is to spend money opening a new market and then "tax the hell out of it".

I gotta admit, I've thought that too. Legalizing and taxing, mostly just tracking health and hours behind the wheel sort of thing. You don't want them to get sick or too worn out. Maybe not schools initially...but eventually there'll be a call for a higher class whore.

Well, what's so wrong with prostitution. It's an exchange of labor for compensation. Isn't that the basis for every form of employment. In ways its far more honorable and honest that other honored professions. Politicians (present administration excluded) are generally respected. What is politics, if not screwing people for money.

Just my two cents, but then again, I am one of those flaming liberals. And damn proud of it.

I have a gal-freidn who once said to me that she felt obligated to sleep w/ a guy becasue he took her out to a nice resturant. How is that any different than prostitution. At least there isn't some shroud in the latter.

The sex trade has been around before we were all in nappies. And it'll always be around.

Rather than criminalise it, we could always legalise and regulate it.

But no. Sex is to be hidden, to be embarrased about... to be dirty.

Heh. Society amuses me. IT'S JUST SEX.

Eh, I wasn't too terribly serious about the taxing part . . .that was mostly a joke. I was just thinking that would make it easier for the government to swallow.

Since when did prostitutes become known as "sex workers"?!? That's sugar-coating it! I consider myself liberal on most issues (and I ain't exactly puritanical about sex), but this is ridiculous.

They may be intelligent about it, but companions they're not. Forget being PC; let's call 'em what they are: whores.

Not too liberal. I'm in favor of that as well!

I may be wrong, but I think "sex workers" is a term covering the whole gamut, so to speak - strippers, lapdancers etc. as well as prostitutes.

Like ticket-scalping or anything else that has got people on these boards riled of late, I imagine prostitution would die out PDQ if there wasn't such a demand for it...

Sex workers in the Netherlands get taxed - good job too!

Sex workers (of all kinds) should have unions, pensions and all sorts. There are some organisations (including some hardcore porn agencies) which do this but not enough.

I am a big damn liberal and proud!

extremely dimensionally transcendental
