The woke people of Seattle or NY will never allow it. Johns are seen as victimizers of the poor sex worker. So the woman chooses to do what she likes with her body, that's empowerment. But if you, you misogynistic pig, take her up on it, then you are abusing your maleness. And if you are white, well, then double whammy! In their world, they will position a social worker (because cops are bad) in the doorway of said sex worker, and as soon as you, the client pays her, they will take you to jail.

Unless there's some fancy legal definition of 'patronizing' I don't know about, it sounds like they'll still prosecute johns. While I'm all for the decriminalization of sex work, it probably won't do much if their customers are still criminalized. I can't think of any other market where it's legal to sell something but illegal to buy it. It sounds very progressive but doesn't seem to actually change anything. So, yeah, it sounds very much like something that we might do here in Seattle.

Key word " progressive".

Canada is mostly like that.

Will someone quote Marty's post. I'm pretty sure he blocked me and I can't see them. They are always entertaining to read.

Saw this morning where the FDA is pausing the use of the J & J vaccine, due to reported blood clots in the brain for some women. I've already received both doses of the Moderna vaccine, but this is disappointing, to say the least. Getting only one dose sure is an attractive method. Hopefully these are very isolated incidents.

Anyone want to be that the good congressman was on one or more arrangement site? Rumors are his girl was on SA.

Most are pimped.

When I saw Misty, she willingly did the job and when it came time, she went back home. Speaking with her (at least with her) she was using the agency as a way to get more business. But I guess she could have just been saying that as well.

I don't get how they are doing a good job. They need to not worry about the John's and go after the pimps.

I think a number of things are happening in the background over there. Some are alt accounts being found out about, might have been caught, overall the increase in costs as well as a number of other things. The one discussion over there that a newbie posted that should of raised some eyebrows but didn't was that he mentioned that he posted a review because he paid a deposit but was given the "wrong address" and then got ghosted. He mentioned that for the next 48 hours he had to work with that site to get the review removed because of the threats he was both texted and PM'd saying he was a liar. Didn't sound like he would be allowed to post an alert. The culture over there is so much towards the provider being always right. Even if the girl messes up, the guy needs to pay for the mistake with either $ or their reputation. I think some are just fed up with the prices and toxic culture over there.

This is a link to that discussion.
