If you or I or anyone honestly state something thinking it was true, and find
out later it wasn't, that is NOT lacking integrity."
And I am glad to see richard has finally come to his senses in regards to
George Bush and the WMD's in Iraq.

re #255
As a matter of
scientific fact, both sexes prefer younger partners for sexual activity.
It
is part of human nature, wired directly into the brain. Smooth, supple, skin
over taut muscles tell our brain that this is a healthy body, well capable
of concieving children and passing our DNA to the next generation.
Easy there, tiger. We don't need you explaining yourself to the rest of us.
There is nothing scientific about preferences. Everyone has different
tastes. Matter of factly, I know many women both European and American that
prefer an older guy. I'm inclined to say that men are more attracted by
a woman's looks while women are more attracted by a man's disposition
financially speaking..but...I can just imagine the amount of squealing that
will cause among the femme respondents.

What? REading a bunch of middle aged women on Live Journal lusting for Daniel
Radcliffe isn't scientific?

Well the concept of the 'man as provider' isn't new. In more modern
terms that doesn't mean going out and hunting and bringing home dinner-
it means bringing home a nice pay check. It does seem to be true that
most women want a man to make more money than they do. It doesn't always
matter if she makes a high 5 figures a year- if she does then she wants
a man making 6 figures. In theory. Of course group theory always seems
to break down when you actually apply it to individuals.
As for the older/younger bit. It wouldn't surprise me if some females of
a species actually liked the more mature males because they've managed
to get through the 'young and stupid' phase and are likely to be
better/more experienced providers.
As for me... I would like to think that people were more than mere
biological urges.

resp:260 Heh, it's really all about Ron Weasley (whose real name is
escaping me Rupert Grint maybe?), according to my FL anyway. I do find
it slightly disturbing, then I remember many of them are in their early
20s and I feel better about it. ;)

Re #255: Bru is the one seeming to live in a fantasy world. He has a
Panglossian perspective really out of touch with reality.
There are criminal enterprises in every branch of human endeavor or activity.
It is absurd to conclude that all endeavors and activities should be illegal
because of that.
It's fine for him to take the view he does of prostitution, but it is just
his opinion with no basis in fact *for well regulated prostitution*.
What did you think of the fictional prostitute in "Pretty Woman", bru?

RW says, "I, like anyone else, am perfectly capable of misunderstanding
some story I read or something from some time back, and misstating
something. We're all human. But to state that I deliberately *make
things up*, without any facts to back it up, and to act high and mighty
using that to claim one lacks integrity, is pretty low of jep to do.
He should apologize."
Too bad he won't apply the same logic to President Bush. There's a
word for that, isn't there?.

Bush, like all politicians, is an inveterate liar who wouldn't know the truth
if it walked up to him and blew itself up. He's just better at it than most.

Bush also has, presumably, better sources of information than dear old
Richard.
One would hope. What with the FBI, CIA, NSA, and all those types.

prostitution can be dangerous and I wouldn't recommend it as a career choice
to anyone, but then again I wouldn't recommend working deep underground in
a coal mine or driving around a track at 200mph either as jobs. There are
plenty of jobs that can be hazardous to your health and well being.
A firefighter has a more dangerous job than a prostitute.

re #267
You're forgetting the point Mike made earlier that not all prostitutes are
witting participants. There is an entire industry based on the sex slave
trade. The flipside of that coin are guys being harvested for organs
throughout SE Asia.

Is a guy who sells his sperm to a sperm bank for money any different than a
woman who takes money for her "bodily services"?

I my opinion, yes. Richard, look, I know you are all for personal freedom
and what have you, but sometimes I don't think you really look at the
repercussions or practicalities of that.
You might want to ask a young black prostitute (preferably when her pimp isn't
lurking about) if she feels she has any control over her body.

I asked about the prostitute being black. Not why you think of a black pimp.
Why does the prostitute have to be black for richard to get an idea?

edina I know there are repercussions and practicalities, I just believe that
each of us has the right to make our own personal decisions. If you want to
have sex for money, it is your body and should be your decision. Not mine,
or the government's, or anyone else's. Your decision.

the government doesn't need nor should it be the arbiter of morality wherever
possible. I would not advise anyone to get an abortion, but neither do I
think the government should be making those decisions for people who have
their own minds and their own free wills. I would not advise anyone to become
a prostitute, but I do not think it is the place of the government to make
such a decision for a consenting adult.
repercussions and practicalities are up to individuals to consider, not up
to the government.
