My computer wouldn't let me read your link, Walt, though I note the topic was "Prostitution in Australia." I can only tell you about how prostitution is organised in my own state, which is Queensland. So if you're interested, here how it works...
In Australia, different states have different laws for regulating prostitution, (sex work).
Because prostitution is one of the oldest professions in human history, there will always be a strong and steady demand for prostitutes - the overwhelming proportion of this demand will always be driven by males wanting to purchase sexual services from females (chiefly "Blow - Jobs" and straight (penetrative sex).
In my state (Queensland) prostitution is legal, though it is very tightly regulated.
For example, if you want to pay for sex,- say you are a male and you wan to pay for a "Blow-Job" straight ("Vanilla") sex with a female prostitute - you can go to registered brothel. The brothels are privately-owned busninesses, and have names like: "The Viper Room", "Platinum 175"; "26 Angel", etc. however they are all regulated under the same law and are all required to operate in accordance with this law.
The brothels, themselves, are simply buildings which are all internally organised using much the same basic model. Immediately behind the main entrance to the brothel is a largish foyer with discrete seating for the clients. At the top end of the foyer two or three "administrative" staff are seated behind computers which sitting atop a longish counter. When a client enters the brothel, he checks in with one of the administrative staff. Would-be clients who arrive at a brothel conspicuously intoxicated on alcohol or some other drug are quickly escorted from the premises by the Security personnel likewise persons who arrive displaying offensive, aggressive or otherwise unacceptable antisocial behavior/s.The vetted client is then seated in one of the discretely empanelled lounge chairs in the foyer. Next, each of the available prostitutes walk into the foyer and briefly introduce themselves one-by-one to the new client. This is so the client can examine the girls and decide which one best matches his taste in women. Because each man is a unique individual, he will have unique erotic and aesthic ideals when it comes to what kind of women turn him on." In my case, for instance , I prefer girls with: biggish, firm titties (no silicon!), a tight and capacious - though not over-large bootie; long, natural, blonde hair; I think tattoos on women are vulgar, ugly and disfiguring and a sexual turn-off, so I would not choose a prostitute who was heavily tattooed (I wouldn't be able to "get it up" !

) I prefer a woman's overall physique to display the sinuous contouring and proportioning of the hour-glass figure (but the contours must be gentle and moderate, not sharp and/or dramatic as in the
classical hour-glass figure. Finally, I would
NEVER have sex with any woman who was not a fair-skinned, member of the North-Western European race.
The criteria I have listed above for what I find makes a woman sexually attractive are what I would call
"EROTIC" But there is a separate class of relevant criteria that I think of as the
"AESTHETIC" The aesthetic criteria are all to do with facial beauty. It is not possible, strictly-speaking, to produce a list of scientific measurements or a mathematical equation or some kind of rational, anatomical analysis that could successfully "capture"feminine facial beauty - that could define/explain the presence of true beauty in a woman's face. Nevertheless, facial beauty in women is real quality - it exists! There is an old anecdote about a Judge who was asked in court to define pornography; his Honour paused briefly, then said: "You know it when you see it"!

. Right; and beauty is the same. One of the world's most amazingly beautiful women was the English actress, Liz Hurley, I was living in England when she she "discovered" and became a celebrity overnight. This happened in 1994 when she accompanied Hugh Grant (the actor) to the London premiere of his film
"Four Weddings and a Funeral" .Suddenly Liz Hurley's face was everywhere - on the cover of every fashion magazine, in all of the British tabloids, on massive Motorway Billboards, etc. No one had ever really heard of her before, she was just another English girl living in London; but the very first time I saw a good quality photograph of her that year I
instantly thought to myself this girl (she was 28 years old at the time) is so beautiful, just looking at her face does my f**king head in (BIG TIME). There were no words anyone (including Shakespeare had he been alive at the time) could ever use to describe her "out -of- this- world" beautiful face to any other human being. Having said this, I wasn't the only one who thought Liz Hurley was "supernaturally" beautiful - today, at the age of 57 Liz still has countless millions of male admirers around the world. To me, this a very solid and compelling piece of evidence in support of the claim the
BEAUTY IS AN OBJECTIVE QUALITY - BEAUTY IS REAL I absolutely do not agree with those philosophers/aestheticians who claim that beauty is subjective -
that beauty is something which exists merely in the "eye of the beholder."I mean, take, for instance, Donald Trump's former White House Press Secretary,
KAYLEIGH McENANY,; then take Biden's current White House Press Secretary,
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE Kayleigh McEnany is a beautiful woman; Karine Jean - Pierre is
NOT a beautiful woman (she resembles an animated Golliwog); she is also ugly on the inside, which is why she was one of the resident Black racist "talking heads" on MSNBC along with another ugly MSNBC "pustule", Joy Reid (man that bitch is one ugly ducklin', and nasty as a cut f**king snake) These are OBJECTIVE FACTS.
The most beautiful women in the world are native
NORTH - WEST EUROPEAN. Their parents were born there, and their grandparents were born there, and their great-great - grandparents were born there and so on back through the misty distant centuries. For instance, there are many beautiful women in ENGLAND and many beautiful women in Scandinavia - I will use SWEDEN as a good example. When discussing the aesthetic issue of facial beauty in women, it has to be said that this beauty is a delicate, fragile and evanescent thing. Like the summer butterfly, a glorious, tropical sunset or a "perfect" rose bloom; exceptional beauty in a woman only flourishes in its full magnificence for a brief time (relatively speaking). Among peoples like the English and the Swedes, where there are many beautiful women, their beauty is at its most stunning, its most intoxicating and divinely spiritual roughly between the ages 18 and 30. Of course, many of these women who were majestic beauties in their youth remain conspicuously beautiful throughout their 30's, 40's and even into their 50's. But, again, when it comes to "drop-dead gorgeous, "jaw-droping" female beauty it is only to be found in the younger age-group (which I estimated to be between 18 and 30).
So If I was a client at a local brothel in Brisbane - and I hasten, friends, I emphatically deny this has ever been the case !! - after the available prostitutes had all "introduced" themselves to me, I would choose the one that best satisfied the erotic and aesthetic criteria I have set out above.
After a client has chosen his preferred prostitute, he walks to the counter at the top end of the foyer and tell an administrator which girl he'd like to book..."I'd like to book Roxanne, please." He is then asked how long he would like to book the girl for. This can ranges from 15 minutes (for a no frills, "quick and dirty" poke) to 30 minutes, an hour or two hours and so on. The sexual services available in registered (legal) brothels, are, in the majority of cases limited to hand -jobs, Blow Jobs and straight ("Vanilla) sex. The sex workers in registered brothels are not permitted to engage in any deviant sexual services like "Golden Showers" or shitting on clients, or providing any kind of BDSM services due to the fact that the brothel's licensing regulations prohibit these types of activity on health and safety grounds.
Registered brothels are
ALWAYS located far away from any suburban/residential areas of the city; generally they are situated in industrial zones. The reason for this, is, I'm sure you'll agree, "not rocket science". It is particularly forbidden to locate a registered brothel anywhere near a middle-class suburb, even a lower-middle-class suburb. The history of the middle-class suburbs is - (believe it or not) - quite interesting, despite the fact that they often have a bad reputation in Australia, America and England for being tedious, boring, isolating and soul-destroying places. Here's the most important reason why legal brothels cannot operate anywhere near the leafy, middle-class "burbs. The middle-class suburb first came into existence in London in the late 18th- century. Americans think that they invented suburbia, but I'm afraid that's not true. So, what was it that motivated the creation of suburbia in England. There were a range of different motives, but the most influential one - the one that has to be emphasises over all of the others was that the London middle class who inveted suburbia were also experiencing a new form of family called
"the closed, domesticated nuclear family"This type of family was inner-directed, united and strong and featured exclusive, personal tie emphasised the boundary surrounding the nuclear unit. Suburbia was an embodiment of this new ideal of family life - which was extremely emotionally charged. aonsequently, the suburban home was more sacred to its occupants than any place of worship. The suburban home was a wholly domestic environment,; the family was seen as an emotional rather than an economic unit, and this emotive force split the middle-class family from the intrusion of the workplace and the the inner city. This is why the first middle-class suburbs sprouted up along the outer margins of the city of London. In a middle-class suburban residence, everything was
domestic and life in the 'burbs was intensely focussed on the emotional requirements of the tight-knit, "nuclear families" who lived there.
So, middle-class suburbia began in England (London) and was founded on a new appreciation for the importance of the "nuclear family". If we look at middle-class suburbia in England during Queen Victoria's reign in the second half of the 19 th-century; we would see married parents investing much emotional energy in bringing up their children according to the precepts of Judeo-Christian morality and inculcating such values as thrift, the virtues of hard work, prudence, moderation; the importance of good manners and courtesy, the dangers of licentious behaviour. If you read about the middle-class suburbs in America in the 1950s, the basics of life there were still much the same as they would have been in the middle class suburbs of , say, the City of Manchester in England in 1848; ( ditto American middle-class suburbia the late 1960s to mild 1970s, if you don't believe me , try watching a few episodes of
"The Brady Bunch." (seriously).
The reason that Brothels are not permitted to be located in , or anywhere near, middle-class suburbia is because the 'burbs are all founded on a reverence for the nuclear family. A brothel represents the moral antithesis of a stable suburban family home. Women selling their bodies for sex in Brothels to satisfy the animal lust of men is grubby and profane in the extreme. Taking money to administer "Blow-Jobs" is moral turpitude (even in a legal brothel) If a Brothel were erected (pardon the pun

}in suburbia, a married father may be tempted to visit it for some cheap thrills, then end up getting addicted to screwing the Hos in it like people get addicted to shit like Oxycodone Eventually, his wife discovers what he has been up to, and divorces him for cheating on their marriage. Now the nuclear family is broken, and the children are placed at risk of poor life outcomes. If brothels were permitted to operate near suburbia, the children who live a suburb near the brothel will eventually work out what is going on inside it and be morally corrupted by by the fact that such behaviour is legal in their city. They may reason to themselves that if giving "Head-Jobs" and "Hand - Jobs" allowing people to fuck each other for cash is OK with the law, why should we be allowed to try that stuff too? It might be fun? Thus teenagers from Suburbia could dabble in sexual debauchery and become morally depraved, so that they are rendered psychologically incapable of establishing stable, loving relationships with the opposite sex as adults.
To continue...Registered brothels in my state are required to maintain high standards of cleanliness; the prostitutes who work in them must undergo regular, medical checks (to screen for the presence of any STDs or other contagious conditions); the use of condoms is mandatory for any penetrative sex. If a prostitute has a client who becomes verbally or physically abusive, s/he can press a "panic button" in their room and the brothel's security staff will immediately arrive in the room, remove the offensive client, and, depending on the circumstances, contact the local state police. (for example, even through a client at a registered brothel is required to pay for the sexual service/s he wants before he receives them, the prostitute must still
consent to engaging in the sex acts that the client has paid for. If example, if a client has paid to have straight, "Vanilla" sex with a female prostitute, in most registered brothels, that would mean he gets ONE fuck for his money. Some male clients, however, made decides they want to screw the girl again, and if the girl says, "No, you can't", they may force themselves upon the female sex worker, using their strength to overpower her struggles, before pinning her to the bed and penetrating her. This is rape, of course, and in a registered brothel, if the sex worker who was raped, chose to report the incident to brothel's registered administrator/s, the police would be called immediately to investigate the complaint. (Likewise if a "John" paid for straight sex with a female prostitute, but when he was with her in her room, he forcefully poked his "peenie" up girl's
"wrong 'un" and kept doing it despite her piercing shrieks of (painful) disapprobation. When she was eventually able to activate the "panic button", the in-House security (who are armed) would hold the client on the premesis until the police arrived to investigate the complaint.
So that is how legalised prostitution operates in my state. It goes without saying that there are also many prostitutes who operate illegally.
I think Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg's policy of not prosecuting sex-workers, like street prostitutes or prostitutes operating out of hotel rooms, etc is foolish. This is because he is effectively legalising prostitution (the provision of any sexual service in exchange for a fee) without making any concurrent efforts to regulate it. When Bragg decriminalised sex work, it would surely have encouraged more women (and men) to begin prostitute themselves despite the risks to their personal health and safety. Decriminalising sex work without at the same time, acting to regulate the industry mean, in short, that being a sex worker/prostitute in Manhattan will be be a very dangerous "occupation". Sex workers will now be even more vulnerable to crimes like: violent assault; stabbings; gun-shot injuries/ murder; rape; forced sodomy; torture; infection with STDs, abduction, and so on.
