Is prostitution legal in your country?

Postby Gkalgacxia » Sat Apr 26, 2014 12:40 pm

In Gkalgacxia, it is not illegal but not frequently practiced.
The name of the country is pronounced [ɢaɭ ɡɐ kʃia], Or, if you're not familiar with the IPA system, "Galgaetia" or "Galgacia".

Yes. Health checkups are required, however, to reduce STD prevalence.

No.
But the government owns several brothels in every major town.

Prostitution is illegal.

Fully legal, but prostitutes and brothel owners must pay for licences from the state governments, apart from paying all the national taxes just like all other businesses.

Yes very much so, especially since we have many more women than men. Ladyboys, who makeup about 10% of our female population, makeup about half of the prostitutes in our nation. Men from other countries, mostly Russia and Ukraine often visit as sex tourists because of our booming prostitution industry.

Yes. Prostitution - and most other business categories within the YellowApplan sex industry - is subject to various regulations for the safety of customers and employees alike, including routine health checkups, mandatory use of barrier contraceptives in genital-genital and genital-anal intercourse, mandatory sanitation of sexual equipment (i.e. "sex toys") between sessions, and the requirement to establish and adhere to "safewords". Most of these regulations were lobbied for by various sex worker unions and consumer protection groups alike, including the YellowApple Union of Sexual Practitioners (YAUSP).

Prostitution is legal in designated brothels and all prostitutes must submit a bill of clean health to the government every year. Street Prostitution is illegal.

Prostitution is completely legal and regulated in our country. Prostitutes and private escorts are accepted as any other professional business person in the service industry. There is even a holiday in their honor called Pink Star Day. Every year in May sex workers and companions parade through towns and cities to promote awareness of sexually transmitted disease, safe sex practices and also to advertise their own business.

Prostitution is legal. However, it is illegal to:
  • Solicit the services of a prostitute in a street or public place ("curb-crawling")
  • Cause, incite, or control prostitution in expectation of gain for himself or a third person ("pimping")
  • Keep or be involved in the management of an unlicensed brothel
  • Subject a prostitute to force in order to coerce them into prostitution, or pay for the services of a prostitute subjected to force.
  • Knowingly arrange or facilitate the arrival into, movement within, or exit from Makaar of any person for the purposes of committing any relevant prostitution or sexual offence ("people-trafficking")
  • Solicit, pay for, or use the services of a prostitute under the age of 18.

Brothels must be licensed, with a set of stringent conditions which must be adhered to in order to keep the license.
Makaar is ranked 323rd in the world for Most Dedicated Public Healthcare.
Makaar is ranked 272nd in the world for Largest Welfare Programs (per capita).
Makaar is ranked 408th in the world for Nicest Citizens.

Of course. It's a business like any other, and it is unregulated just like almost all others. We don't even have to worry about STDs, and neither do the formerly-biological immigrants who are the patrons.

Since Decepticons see the provision of sexual services as being no different than any other business, all it took for prostitution to begin was the realization that not all immigrants have the sense to have their sexual drives patched out during or shortly after the roboticization procedure. When they were seen buying expensive Bio-Analogous Modification Parts of the genital variety, it was clear that this drive was a strong one. It was also logically evident that - thanks to most immigrants being straight males - there wouldn't be enough users of the Female Sets to satisfy the demand. Almost immediately, a minor, but very lucrative, industry was born.

No. It is worth mentioning, however, that just outside Diopolis's territorial waters lurk ships known only as "dens of vice", which can be accessed by taking a smaller ship out to them. Most include at least one brothel, as well as facilities for recreational drug use and casinos. Occasionally an emperor will order the navy to sink them, but for the most part they're left alone.

Fully legal here. We regulate it, and tax it as a source of extra revenue for the Imperial coffers not to mention safety of sex workers and the general public.

It most certainly is not. Using a prostitute can result in a 6 month jail sentence, while to be one or act as a pimp can carry 10-20 years in prison.
