A camera. I had an idea to set up a chain of "porn studios" where you set up a camera and buddy gets to have sex with an "actress" and then leave with the tape. He has made a "porn movie" so it is totally legal. Everyone is Jake.

The camera is the clincher, although it also requires to some extend the intent to distribute (rather than just make a home movie). Most people don't know that outside of California, producing porn is technically still illegal (but the law not enforced much because of the California rulings). Ask Ray Guhn.

In the legal sense it's the camera as it becomes speech but IMHO a big part of the reason is the psychology of who "gets off" in the process. One is a trnsaction that allows others to get off. It's essentially done to titalate OTHER people. The other is something an individual does that gets THEIR rocks off and that's just a bridge too far for people.

I imagine if you gave people a choice and say ti went to a national referendum and the only choices were to either make porn 100% legal across the country (other than the obvious illegal categories) and have prostitution illegal OR make producing porn 100% illegal but prostitution legal that they vote would come in in favor of porn legal prostitution illegal.

There's soemthing about using another person's body for a busines tranaction to get your own rocks off that jut offends too many people's sensibilities.

I guess it's kind of like the three clicks in google rules for adult advertising.

On another note are you reading minds again? I seriously was thinking about this recently when a client in Canada called to have me do some research for him on a new Escort Site he wants to run....

I beleive the laws some places are really just meant to generate income and draw a celebrity status to prosecuters who use adult related arrests to put their name and cases in the press. For example here is our great tax dollars at work we have given out 100K's of dollars for these guys to find obscenity sites online (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/10/us/10obscene.html)for years and their work has resulted in not one successful prosecution.

I think some people on here should apply for that grant money to supplement their income and get rid of the bad guys internally - you would probably do a lot better job than these nuts who are probably now addicted to porn and geetting paid $100k a year for it.

Actually porn isnt legal outside of California - yet, perhaps Ray Guhn will prove otherwise.

But the difference between porn and prostitution in California is the case of State of California v. Freeman.

Even POV porn is illegal in California under Freeman.

The main issue everyone seems to miss is the contractual ramifications of the illegal nature of porn. While content producers may have a First Amendment argument against the government in a criminal case because of the artistic free speech nature of porn, this will not hold up in regards to content shot outside California in a civil litigation case. Courts will not enforce illegal contracts and in most states contracts for sex are still illegal.

Problem with the US is that you guys are way over governed. Too many levels of government have their fingers in the same pie. And even if you beat the rap in a criminal case (OJ)...you can still be harassed to death by a civil action after you have been found not guilty. Someday someone has got to do something about this hornets nest. I look at American "freedom" sometimes and shake my head. It seems you have the freedom to litigate, harass, carry deadly weapons, pay large amounts of money to fix yourself if you are broken or shot with said deadly weapon, speak your mind.....if you don't piss off Bubba, have sex between consenting adults (in most states). I guess life is good. Freedom, however, is better.

Why is prostitution illegal? --Frank Carroll, Arlington, Virginia

http://www.straightdope.com/art/2000/000114.gif

Because hookers are a nuisance, that's why. Always around when you don't want them, and never there when you do.

Prostitution isn't a felony. In most U.S. jurisdictions it's a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine and a short stretch in jail. In parts of Nevada, it isn't even that--prostitution is legal, though regulated.

Fine, you say. But why should prostitution be considered any kind of crime? The victims aren't complaining. Why should the rest of us care?
The usual explanation is that criminalization of prostitution is a product of the moralizing impulse in American politics. As with other victimless crimes such as gambling and drug use, our antiprostitution laws largely date from the Progressive era around the turn of the 20th century. This period also produced reforms such as the pure food and drugs laws and antitrust regulation.

Many Progressive leaders were educated, articulate members of the middle class that had emerged during the economic expansion following the Civil War. No longer was it necessary to accept social ills as inevitable, they felt. If we apply scientific methods and can-do attitude to our problems, we can eradicate them altogether.

In many respects the Progressive project was a great success. Today everybody is grateful that we have pure food laws and antitrust regulation. (Well, maybe Bill Gates isn't.) The legacy of the antiprostitution campaign is perhaps a little less positive.

In the 19th century prostitution, while not always legal, was tolerated in most of the world as a necessary evil. Enlightened opinion--enlightened male opinion, anyway--held that hey, boys will be boys, and men will be animals. The best we can do is regulate prostitution, including health inspections, licensing of brothels, etc.

But in English-speaking countries the regulatory impulse was countered by growing sentiment that prostitution was evil, period, and ought to be suppressed. Middle-class women played a leading role in the antiprostitution movement, arguing that prostitution threatened family life. Sympathetic journalists suggested that prostitutes were the principal carriers of venereal disease, then thought to be rampant. (Prior to the advent of effective treatment in the early 20th century, VD was certainly no trivial matter.)
The abolitionists ultimately carried the day. Before 1900 most legislation dealing with prostitution sought merely to control it. After World War I, usually considered the end of the Progressive era, the goal was to stamp it out.

Officially, that's been the aim ever since. But let's face it. Nobody really expects prostitution to go away, and it's hard to believe anyone ever did. They just don't want it in their back yards.

Laws are rarely repealed, they are fixed by adding....you guessed it, more laws.

It will be tough to ever get things like porn, prostitution or even marijuana ever made totally legal at the federal level. Few if any politicians will take the heat of endorsing either action.

All are victimless crimes, all have been around forever and will exist whether legal or not. But logic does not apply.

Ok dragging this back on topic...

It isnt the camera that makes it "legal" its the model release. Technically I do not pay the girls to have sex, I pay them to sign their copyright of that performance over to me. Its a fine legal line and outside of Cali its a very gray area of the law, but thats how it was explained to me and thats how I explain it to whomever I am shooting.

And in reality its true, without that signed model release transferring that copyright to me, they don't get paid. If you dont understand how a performer owns a copyright of the performance as well as the photographer /videographer sharing that copyright then you need to brush up on that part of the law. Essentially without one signing their copyright over to the other, either via a model release or a photographers release neither one can use the content without the consent of the other.

For this reason I dont pay the performers and they dont sign the release until after the scene is shot.

I fully believe in Freedom of Religion as long as my own rights and beliefs aren't stepped on. I also have no problem with the Bible being in a public school as a reference text as long as the other world's religious texts are displayed equally.

The truth of the matter is there was no reference to God on American money untill about a hundred years after the fact. Our founders would have abhorred this practice.

It is, like many other things slipped into practice by the bible thumper who have always insisted this was a "Christian Nation" When of course it clearly is not, many of our most celebrated founders including Ben Franklin were Deists.

Just like the Phrase "Under God" was added after the fact to the pledge in an effort to bring God into public schools.

It never ends really and the bible thumpers wont be happy until we live under their version of Sharia Law.

Best to remember that all this Christian Nation horseshit has been slowly added over the last hundred years or so (since the civil war mostly)

In other countires and cultures, minors marry and have children that are under american legal age. and its legal and not look down upon.

I think the "In god we trust" religion in America is a major founding source of where American legal laws are created. :idontknow just thinkin' like a trucker

If you want to get right down to it, the presence of the camera (and the crew, dammit) changes the sex act in production from intimate to public, to display and performance. It's no longer sex, though it's sexual.

Kinda like saying, if a tree falls in the forest and there's no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?

And actually, at least in Canada, what's illegal is the solicitation of money for sex (or sex for money?) that is illegal, not paying for sex, or getting paid for sex.

I had a potential client once who wanted to do some live video streaming from his swinger's club private rooms. These people are paying to join the club, paying to have an arena in which to swing-fuck, and paying to have their activities webcast...

Lawyers have sorry jobs and I pity them their chore....

If not so? then who are the ones who set the morality standards in Law?
Who the fuck decides how low is to low??
There isnt.
Its done through religious belief at the time of that generations lifestyle existence and its surrounding environment of beliefs.

Ahem to that.

And my tolerance for them stops when they try to tell me what to do according to their beliefs.....
Otherwise, they can play "drink the Kool-aid," in the corner, all they want.

Me either. Fords suck ass. Especially Mustangs. They may be a good ride for ladies who need a car to putt-putt down to the grocery store but thats it. You have to add $10k worth of mods just to make it go anything close to "Fast". silly, silly cars...
