What an idiotic waste of time. Why does the government feel the need to regulate what two consenting adults do with their bodies or with their money.

I agree, but I believe he is married, which would make it a big deal.

Not to anyone but them.

two schools of thought on this.

1. whatever two consenting adults choose to do with their bodies and their money is their business.

2. a lot of women in the sex trade are not there by choice. They have to answer to pimps who use threats of physical force to keep them in line. From this perspective, it is not a "victimless" crime - the women selling their bodies are the victims. real-life prostitution is not a Hollywood movie.

I can see both sides of the argument.

Like any type of prohibition, the Govt creates a black market, which in turn creates victims. Legalize and regulate, problem solved.
