I don't think that one can say that sadomasochism is wholey illegal. It doesn't make sense, like much of what she said, so I believe many of us filtered it out.

The wife and I have paid entrance fees to get into a club and did have sex with others, but not the owners (creepy old couple) so I doubt that it could be considered prostition since none of us were paid. In the Empress' situation, I'm not sure if she stated what services she was performing for the "donations" so I couldn't say if she was prostituting herself. The club that I mentioned was in a residential neighborhood. Scummy, but residential none-the-less. Would I want it next to me? No. Does that make me hypocritical? Yes, but that's just how I roll.

From the outside, it didn't look any different from any other house on that block, but I wouldn't want to deal with the other things that sometimes follow explicit adult behavior.

I'm penalizing your argument 5 points for that statement because you're grasping at straws. Bringing 9/11 into this discussion is almost as silly as telling the U.N. that Iraq blew up the towers.

A lot of laws trump free expression. Zoning laws managed to get Cindy Sheehan arrested while attempting to deliver petitions to the White House the other day.

I don't personally fear my kids being exposed - for the very reason you mentioned - discretion. But, shit happens and shit brings trouble to a community. It only takes one pissed off or jealous person creating waves and suddenly you have a lot of explaining to do.

That's simply not true.

Makes no sense what so ever.

Not by any realistic definition. Pimps sell pussy. We sell pics of pussy.
I understand how you've become offended by this thread, I truly do. But I don't think anyone is attacking the S&M community. I can't imagine why anyone would. Sure, we've been stating that the person in question was acting pretty damned foolishly by advertising her services online, but that was pretty nuts. You and I, though from different sexual lifestyles, understand the need for discretion. She fucked up. She wasn't being discreet enough. If she had been discreet, this thread wouldn't be here right now.
