If you are paying for it, you're doing it wrong.

Enter the world of every college today and I can assure you many, MANY people are getting 'serviced' for free nightly by different 'crew members'.

And no, I would never pay for an oil change.

I find the practice disgusting but I would legalize it. Every adult is free to make their own decision.

Do it like Yurop and tax the hell out of it. I fully endorse the idea.

I look on it like a harmless commodity that is banned simply because of superstitious reasons. I don't see what so bad about it. Not any worse than me going to work. The difference is the commodity in this case. After all, she isn't willing to have sex with the John without money any more than I am willing to work for free.

Legal, but not cheap. I agree with your assessment, which is why I haven't been to the ranch in years.

It's been legal here for a long time and the world hasn't ended. I agree with you. In addition, the fact that it's legal also means it's regulated. Mandatory condom use and frequent checks for STD's.

STDs are still a risk even when you wine, dine and 69 the girl.

A true story....

A friend of mine, someone who had traveled greatly due to being in the US Army, decided to get married. This was about 30 years ago.

On his wedding night his wife laid down the law to him and let him know that there were going to be a number of rules that would have to be followed before she was going to engage in any, shall we say, relationships.

He was rather floored by this bit of news since this had never been a problem before they were married, but he thought for a second and then pointed out to her that she could never cut off the supply of the subject under discussion since she could have no way of knowing where he was getting it.

He said she just got a dumb look on her face, realized he was right, and things have been going just fine ever since.

A man was leaving a convenience store with his morning coffee when he
noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery. A
black hearse was followed by a second black hearse about 50 Feet behind the
first one. Behind the second hearse was a solitary man walking a dog on a
leash. Behind him, a short distance back, were about 200 men walking single
file.
The man couldn't stand the curiosity. He respectfully approached the man
walking the dog and said:



"I am so sorry for your loss, and this may be a bad time to disturb you, but
I've never seen a funeral like this. Whose funeral is it?"


"My wife's."


''What happened to her?"
"She yelled at me and my dog attacked and killed her."

He inquired further, "But who is in the second hearse?"

The man answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife
when the dog turned on her."

A very poignant and touching moment of brotherhood and silence passed
between the two men.

"Can I borrow the dog?"

The man replied, "Get in line."

Would you ever consider paying for it?
I read the post many times and I do not understand what role you played. Were you the 9th person? 2 or the 6?

Hooker is legal in New Zealand. A BBC program once asked the hooker do you like your job?

She said, "On the first day of my job, I got paid NZ$100 and I came a number of times. I enjoy my work."

But Rosie, you're all right
You wear my ring
When you hold me tight
Rosie, that's my thing
When you turn out the light
I've got to hand it to me
Looks like it's me and you again tonight, Rosie
