Prostitution: France wants to punish clients

[HoosierCowboy]

4. Laws against Prostitution,

make every woman a prostitute in principle. The outrage ought to be about the old tired ethics that back laws against prostitution.

The legal term called "an expectation of consideration" in the prostitution laws can turn a dalliance into a court case if law enforcement wants to push the case. These laws give law enforcement the ability to read someones mind and act preemptively only on presumption.

The irony is that someone can have sex with hundreds of partners, a line leading outside the door, and it's perfectly legal until someone leaves a twenty on the night table.

This law isn't going anywhere in France, and we should seriously reconsider our own laws.
