Prostitutes and pornstars

Jenn, I’m glad you shared. First Switch, now you. It’s not something I would engage in, but I don’t think less of you for doing it, if you were smart about it.
@Imperious:
By sexual disease:
More than 25 million people have died of AIDS since 1981.
Africa has 12 million AIDS orphans.
At the end of 2007, women accounted for 50% of all adults living with HIV worldwide, and for 61% in sub-Saharan Africa.
Young people (under 25 years old) account for half of all new HIV infections worldwide.
In developing and transitional countries, 7.1 million people are in immediate need of life-saving AIDS drugs; of these, only 2.015 million (28%) are receiving the drugs.
I’m going to reiterate what Funcioneta said. AIDS is not an exclusive STD. It can be transmitted in a variety of ways that has nothing to do with sex. And to assume that sex and debauchery is to blame for an epidemic is pretty short sighted. Also, I guess that “gay man’s” disease is bunk by those statistics.
Having children creates poverty. Children are not coming from thin air…

And no I’m not saying its these peoples fault.
Again, echoing Funcioneta, sex is absolutely necessary for the continuation of the species (well, ok, maybe science can help in that crisis). And, it’s even more important that people procreate wisely when facing so many deaths by the AIDS epidemic. It is devastating countries, which are seeing a drop in population, leading to a decline in economy, rise in poverty, etc. etc. So the “cause” happens to also be the remedy. Funny, no?
Plus you add rape, sexual torture, slave sex trade, broken homes from divorce due to infidelity, on and on you you get real human pain.
True, but the scope of this damage is nothing like what happens in war.
On the other hand- War cases deaths, and poverty and suffering, but i don’t think the total numbers are even close.
Overpopulation is the real threat and wars have done nothing by comparison. In fact war caused better technology, while overpopulation created better poverty.
War is also enormously expensive, especially if you include the rebuilding that comes afterward. Better poverty? How is it “better?” Do you not think that the need to address a rising population necessitates growth, planning, solutions? And that the demand of AIDS patients stimulates industry, research, and technology? Undoubtedly war has contributed some to the world, but only after it was applied in a damaging capacity.
@cystic:
anyway, i guess another way to ask the original question, is how are porn directors not charged with prostitution-related crimes? Or is this a freedom of speech thing? In which case, any john could plead freedom of expression - i.e. expressing his desire with a “lady-of-the-night”.
This is the crux of the matter. Now, let’s say you go downtown and film a porn in public - that’s not going to fly, prostitute or not.

@Imperious:
Example: 1 million children can starve in Africa this year, while Europe makes noise about US involvement in Iraq where we lost 4,000…?
No Iraqis were killed/harmed in the making of “Desert Storm 2: Terror Bugaloo?” I don’t think Europe has a problem here.

Thats not really a bad thing… that is to rebuild old cities. Keeps people employed, the expense is the cost of hiring people to toil, when before they were sharpening their knives and loading guns both mentally and physically. The power keg of ideas from faulty ideas can only be resolved finally by armed conflict, where usually the more consistent view prevails and this leads to a better understanding IMO.
Better poverty? How is it “better?” Do you not think that the need to address a rising population necessitates growth, planning, solutions?
Yes but only after the “crisis of decision” that must be weathered to move forward. Population and Poverty fulfill each other together and only a shake up of the path that keeps this pattern going proves a remedy. Because of the driven need of the sex drive people ( usually the poor) have a harder time to break up the pattern. War always breaks the pattern.
If you put domesticated animals in the wilderness, eventually they break the mind sets of what was learned and retire to natural instincts. If the social constructs were broken by war, a new pattern can emerge also breaking the caste of what didn’t work before.
Basically i refer to Freud and his Civilization and its Discontents probably one of the best books dealing with the human condition and why we have familiar patterns for the sex drive. I just using the idea of war to prove that its can effect a real change of awareness in humanity for a higher short term cost, but a much cheaper long term cost.
Yes i also admit that the sexual drive is strong, but the subject is certainly not the main item of discussion even in the news. War is the paramount concern. So I’m also arguing the basic preposition of the original question.
And that the demand of AIDS patients stimulates industry, research, and technology? Undoubtedly war has contributed some to the world, but only after it was applied in a damaging capacity.
Of course but nothing close to the different technology you get from war. The tech from war is always applied to the public sector in very real measurable ways that would prove a greater benefit than say the last 20 years of finding a cure for aids. besides 20 years of health care for patients is a huge cost that would prove relative to a few years of war.
Even the cold war created NASA and JPL and all the modern aerospace developments. Didn’t you like those pictures from Titan? Indirectly you can thank the cold war for it.

@cystic:
As usual - my question was largely ignored - hole-y non-sequitor IL/M36 (as usual - but thanks for coming out).
That was funny! :-D :-D

Anyway, how did prostitution and porn turn into Desert Storm Part 2? Are we now hiring prostitutes and pornstars to interrogate the enemy? Ya know what, if it wasn’t probably against the Geneva Convention, that might not be a half bad idea!
“Yo, rag head! Yea, you! Who cares about 70 virgins in the afterlife! We have one for you RIGHT NOW! We’ll even give you your favorite meal and a three hour pass to a Korean Massage Parlor if you just tell us where you stashed the New-Clear weapons!”
Think about it!
Hell, I’d take one for the team. Not a virgin anymore, but honestly, he’s a POW, do you REALLY think he’d be that picky?
-
IL, I’ll get back to you when I feel up to you.
But, what I really want to say is…who wants a virgin? I’ve never had one. I had a crazy desire to deflower one though. Then I realized that was retarded and it would probably suck. You’d have to train them and such, blah blah blah. Give me a seasoned veteran any day.
And no, I’m not a whore and probably have slept with fewer people than you. I could totally sleep with more if I wanted to, so NYAH! :mrgreen:
-
I agree on the Virgin front… had my last when I was 20. Talk about DEAD in the sack…
To quote Walter (one of Jeff Dunham’s other characters)…
“Why 72 virgins? Give me 72 slutty broads who know what they are doing!”
-
i “know a guy” who had the name of a woman tattooed on his arm in exchange for a week of . . . favors. He was in the navy, and it was WW II then, mind you.
-
why is it against the law to sell a natural resource?
this has often confused me -
Because the United States is controlled by men and allowing women to use their bodies any way they want, provided it is not related to the unwarranted murder of unborn citizens, threatens that superiority of the men over women.
After all, if women were in control of sex, then we’d be in control of men and therefore, men would cease to have control over the nation and we could finally move toward a utopia.

That turned my stomach a bit, I’ve delt with “internees” thats just nasty. If your going to break out those skills, use them for troop moral. :wink:

It’s not unfair. We are just a more evolved life form. :P

Wait, women ARE in control of sex
IF they say no, (even if they didn’t say no at the time), but later say they said no, Men go to jail
How many times have you heard a man cry RAPE?
Your premise is false.
