Have you ever paid or been paid for sex?
 With the recent conversations about Spitzer and Stabenow's husband, I thought it might be interesting to pose this question here on DU. I believe that prostitution will eventually be decriminalized in many places, but in order for that to happen, we have to be willing to talk openly about it.

I have both paid for and been paid for intimate time spent with another person, and I have no regrets about it.

Anyone else?

3. No but a few years ago, I asked an uber successful local businessman if he 
 thought I could charge retroactively.

He said. . . ". . .ahhhhh. . . NO. . ."

6. I personally see nothing wrong with it
 I can't say that I've been paid for it, but I have been known to drop a few bucks here and there.

As George Carlin says, ****ing is legal, and selling is legal - so why isn't selling ****ing legal? Sex is the ONLY legal service which is illegal to exchange money for.

I can understand not wanting to have streetwalkers loitering in front of businesses, and I don't mind having prostitution regulated - ie regular testing, etc. But what two consenting adults do in private should be nobody's business - let alone the governments.

14. I think that gay male sex also excludes you from donating
 As far as I know, if you're a man who's had sex with just one other man since 1977, you're not allowed to donate blood. But if you've had sex with 10,000 women, donating blood is no problemo.


uh.......................................ok....

I was arrested in a Gay demostrarion in SF.
The "civil rights"lawyer blew me for his retainer. I git out of jail that's what's important
His name was Billy Joe Beckwith (BJ) and it was a demonstration outside Macy's on Union Sq.
I feel history demands the truth this was in 1969, I believe



Somehow, this makes perfect sense to me.

I'm don't know that I would trust that lawyer's advice given his grasp on ethics.

For some reason, none of what was in that thread surprised me. Go figure.

Well I've heard of blood sucking lawyers who screw their clients over but this just takes the sparkly cake! :-)

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
