"Sex tourism is a pretty revolting business when it involves vulnerable young people. "
100% agree. What about when it involves fully consenting adults though?
Is it right or fair that a person who hasn't had sex for a while, and isn't blessed enough to go out and simply 'pull' should have to live the life of a celibate?
Provided (of course) there are safeguards in place to protect vulnerable people and the escorts are fully consenting then I think there IS a legitimate place for paid sex out there.
I wouldn't want to condemn anyone to a sexless life if that's not what they wanted, when an escort can provide that release for them as and when required. |

The sex industry in countries like Germany is well managed and governed; when it's legal and run like this, I don't see anything wrong with paying for sex - the sec workers aren't being exploited and the customers aren't at risk.
I wouldn't pay for sex in this country as the workers and customers do not have state governance to protect them. |

So a Briton paying for sex in a country or region where prostitution is legalised, would by definition, be breaking UK law in another country?
Well that throws up interesting questions about international law, sovereignty, jurisdiction.
Technically, no crime was committed. |

"So does it also mean that going to our clubs would be illegal?
You could say we are paying for sex when we enter a club......just a thought  "
And hotel rooms; I've heard people have sex there too |

Legal principles are getting turned on their head . Jurisdiction ???
The saville thing was the biggest recent example. Just mad. Or the guys being charged with a 'crime ' from 40 years ago.
But get the mob behind you and Can do anything .
Like with the footballer case - let's remove the anonymity in sex cases. Some attention grabbing drama queen - gets to drag him into court with anonymous accusations.
Also So many people want to stick their nose into your business- amazing .
Control freaks and prissy moralists everywhere |

It's aimed at sex tourism such as the underage child sex workers in Thailand etc.
Trouble is, measures like this are too crude to be effective.
And of course it's not illegal to lay to go to a club; you pay entry fee to use the club; " if" sex happens ; that's just what happens.
Same as escorts; in theory you don't pay for sex, you pay them for their time. Technically the sex us an addition " if they choose to.
It's actually very difficult to police unless the police have evidence that a sex act and a price for it was agreed . |

1 thing 1 would never do is pay for sex.
Been the strip clubs and had stunning girls offer me extra's later on back at a hotel which 1 swiftly rejected.

I cannot see this going ahead anyway like people say how will you police it?
I cannot understand why it's not good practice to legalise prostitution, as it stands sex workers have little to no rights some are forced into the life. By legalising it tax will be paid, the workers will be looked after better and could eliminate pimps and sex traffickers. |

I'm not 100% certain how they are proposing the law to work in Ireland but I would imagine it will be similar to the system that already operates here in the UK and was specifically introduced to cover underage sex tourism but can also be used for other offences.
IF it is an offence in the country the person visited AND in the UK, then the UK authorities can prosecute the offender here.
So in our current system it has to be an offence in the first instance, and it has to be so in BOTH countries. |

You are not paying for sex when you enter a club, you are paying to enter and use the facilities in that club and this doesn't always result in sex! |

Bear in mind this makes it legal to sell sex but not to buy it. So it takes the criminal behaviour away from the prostitutes and criminalizes the customers.
The OP mentions Norway. Which has a thriving sex industry. It's regulated and workers have protection.
In it's essence this is a good law which could offer support and reduce fear for sex workers. But it's flawed, it's not going to solve all that is wrong within the sex industry. |

I sometimes wonder how many choose prostitution and how many genuinely have no choice or think they have no choice. The woman in the sex shop window in Amsterdam, sat eating her dinner off her knee as people gaze in; how did her life get her there? I grant you she is a very different proposition to underage kids in the hands of controlling criminals. Even so, how much genuine choice is involved in either case? |

I am so against this, for many reasons. Amnesty International called for decriminalisation of the sex trade, including brothels - which is my belief for what is right.
Whilst this is the current position in Northern Ireland, it's just a stupid increase in legislation without any resources to implement and manage it. How on earth will they police UK citizens abroad, going about what may be legal practices in other countries?
And anyone who thinks that it's right to have a full ban on sex for sale in the UK must be living in another world. It won't work, even if it has seemed to in some towns, or in different countries.
A recent survey has shown the majority of sex workers against this, believing that they will become more endangered, if it's pushed more underground, due to law. I feel like we're returning to the dark ages. |

Agree also!
I also think the number of rapes/sexual assaults will hit the roof if mp's are stupid enough to try to enforce this law!
Sex workers are necessary and have been since the dawn of time. Xx |

It needs regulation not criminalisation... The big issue in sex trade is under age, people trafficking and slavery... Making it illegal only makes the trade more lucrative for would be offenders... And more dangerous for its victims...
I for one have no objection to two consenting adults making mutually beneficial arrangements, although I never have and would hope I would never be in the position I felt this was the only way to get my needs met.
Same concept applies to recreational substances... If they were regulated and there was dispensary centres for certain types of substances, there would be less money to be made illegally in the trade and less people dying in night clubs from killer pills...
In both instances you're never going to stop the industry, why make it more dangerous? |

Generally resource and enforce current legislation, including cooperation internationally on people trafficking.
Underage sex is already illegal.
People trafficking is already illegal.
Controlling and exploitation of people is illegal: like the modern day examples of people charged with slavery type offenses.
We either have a right wing government wanting a smaller state or not. I can understand how some things have crept into Northern Ireland, as there have been power/control issues there, as with not permitting same sex couples to marry. But we don't need to emulate their law with something that's unenforceable.
Just ensure current laws are pursued or changed, if they can't manage trafficking or child abuse. Sex workers should have every right to pursue their profession as they see fit - and it won't stop, just because some nuts step in trying to enforce control. Women are potentially more vulnerable and driving stuff underground will just likely increase that and harm done to them.

They won't be able to police it as they don't the have the resources, simple as. They can't follow every person who crosses the border and keep surveillance tabs on them. After all the government cuts, police resources are already stretched as it is. |

We have some stupid people trying to rule us. King Canute, or something like that, comes to mind.
It's partly an anti male ideology imo, due to the imbalance of who the purchasers are. Coupled with a Victorian antisex mindset that refuses to die.
The resources aren't there, as others say, and it should not be on any priority list to consider in the slightest. |

The only way they could ever enforce this would be to prosecute the accused on return if he has been caught, charged and possibly even convicted whilst he was in another country doing the deed, petty much as it is now really...
Since when does something being illegal stop it happening? It just criminalisies a group of otherwise harmless people in a lot of cases. Once someone is crimanilised, and things like insurance becomes more expensive and harder to obtain, getting a job becomes harder then we create criminals who just think sod it, might as well do... |

This is horrifying!! The religious right and the "Holier than thou" biggots use sex as a whipping boy.
Because some don't understand the concept of NSA sex, free or paid for, the want it banned. They will find any excuse to restrict the lives of if they can.
Consider, if people get injured when they are robbed they don't try and ban money so why, if some girls are trafficked, do they try and ban paid sex? Why not hunt down the traffickers?
The next step will be to make all sex outside marriage illegal (like Dubai for example). Then they will scan the Fab records to find criminals.  |

If it's a country where prostitution is legal I don't see why you are doing anything wrong by paying for one |

This is so true - legalize it and it sorts out a lot of issues. There's nothing immoral about escorting if the escort is an adult and not coerced. Used car salesmanship is a far more immoral profession IMHO. |

That's a bit of a relative question. I didn't become a medical secretary by first choice it sort of happened. I'd much rather have become a different professional. Same applies to many escorts - may not be their "dream" job but it pays the bills and so it happens. She had the option to take something else up, like working in a store or be a cleaner, but didn't want it for a variety of reasons. It was an informed choice. That's different from the sex trafficked. |

Bit of a headline grabbing statement if ever I saw one?
What defines 'paying for sex'? I've been married 35 years and i've been paying for it ever since (just kidding)
It's unenforceable and, dare I say it, relatively undetectable unless by open admission.
If the 'offence' isn't committed in the Country where the law applies, I can't see an offence has been committed. |

I'm on a 6 year drought, I don't have a sex life at all and I miss it. I would pay for hotels, trips and spoil a lady etc but I don't think I could ever pay for sex. Personally it would just make me feel like even more of a failure.
I do however resent not having the legal option and just see it as an over bearing nanny state government trying to impose morals on consenting adults..

If what you say is true, I guess "middle class feminists" are afraid their husbands, who they starve of sex and physical affection because of their own distorted view on the value of monogamous sex, want to prevent them enjoying even a little sex elsewhere before they die of overwork. Lovely and I bet they say to their husband "Of course I love you! - now pass your wallet over". |

Many women do it through choice, it depends where you look
In my experience avoid Street walkers and foreign women they are usually working for somebody else
I work in the sex trade so know many other women who do
I also work full time as a district nurse, I don't sell my body because I have to I do it purely through choice, if I stopped tomorrow my bills would still get paid I earn a good salary from my day job
I do it because I enjoy it, i only work clubs, I don't do private meets, I know lots of other women who also enjoy doing it and many who don't
A lot of womans attitude I know is why work a 40 hour week when I can make as much in one afternoon, its easy money that's why a lot do it |

But they're not saying you can't continue providing sexual services. It is only the man who runs the risk of being criminalised. He will have to decide whether the risk is worth running. BBut bear in mind that the state are securing wide ranging powers to control what they call "money laundering".
We are sleep walking into a period of control precedented only by wartime and the 17th century. The iniquity of the adage "if you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to worry about" will come to mean more and more. When we finally reach a cashfree society there will be nothing in your spending that will be private. |

No, we'll just go full circle back to bartering systems!! Neither cash, nor money, are essential for the functioning of an economy. |

I think it's reasonable that if you're British and you break our laws it's right you're prosecuted regardless of where you broke them.
Previously I'd question the thing about whether paying for sex should be illegal, but the more I read/watch stuff it seems that women are never really in control in those situations. Even when it seems they are it most often turns out they're either being exploited or end up seriously messed up. |

so what are you doing here? are you here to exploit and control the weaker people here. Who exploits whom? Seems to me it is the weakness of men that is being exploited. |

Cigarettes, gold, diamonds and alcohol usually make good currency due to their high value to weight ratio... |

"not content with making it illegal to pay for sex in Northern ireland mps now want to make this uk wide and as with norway make it an offence for a uk citizen to pay for sex anywhere in the world thoughts ?
Legal principles are getting turned on their head . Jurisdiction ???
The saville thing was the biggest recent example. Just mad. Or the guys being charged with a 'crime ' from 40 years ago.
But get the mob behind you and Can do anything .
Like with the footballer case - let's remove the anonymity in sex cases. Some attention grabbing drama queen - gets to drag him into court with anonymous accusations.
Also So many people want to stick their nose into your business- amazing .
Control freaks and prissy moralists everywhere "
Well aren't you a charmer. Defending two paedos in one post. |
