Brothels and Prostitution 101
Recently I found an article in the Review Journal about a school from Lynchburg, Virginia who decided to take a field trip to the brothels outside of Las Vegas. Not your ordinary field trip for sure. The class sounded like an interesting one though and consisted of examining how we all are consumers and what do we consume. They visited northeastern Nevada where they want to pipe water for several hundred miles to Las Vegas (a plan I don’t agree with for sure), some farms, and last but not least the Chicken Ranch Brothel out in Pahrump, Nevada (one of Las Vegas’ closest bordellos people can visit). Apparently the media got a hold of such a field trip and decided to join the 11 women visiting from the Virginia school at the Chicken Ranch. I wish I would have known because I would have wanted the tour as well! I have read the book about the Mustang Ranch by Alexa Albert and have always been curious to learn more about the legal side of prostitution.
Anyway why I mentioned this article is because I was slightly shocked at the women being open minded to such a discussion. One girl was quoted saying, “”People keep asking me if this has changed my opinion about prostitution. I’m not sure I had an opinion on prostitution.” She said also that she “found it hard to condemn the industry after seeing it in person.” Good article and I love hearing about normal people experiencing different things and having an open mind about it. Wish more Americans were the same way… Here is some more legal Nevada brothel information.

I met Dennis Hoff and the Moonlite Bunny Ranch. It was an interesting experience…

April 22nd, 2008 at 9:44 amI have also met some girls out here who work at escort services who gave the brothels a shot. I don’t think I could do it though. Yes I give up to 30% back to the companies I work for when I get tipped, but I could not be put into a place where I feel pressured to do things I don’t want to do or for the price that I want. They say you can do whatever you want but I have heard numerous girls saying they felt forced to take money for acts they weren’t comfortable with doing. You give 50% back to the house and pay a measly 20 bucks to living expenses. If things get slow here in Vegas, I couldn’t imagine how it is 60 miles away in Pahrump at the Chicken Ranch or Sheri’s.
April 24th, 2008 at 1:54 amI think it’s great that they’re expanding their ideas like that. People put too much against the idea of a sex worker, so it’s nice for them to (possibly) be seen as a service provider, instead of dirty godless demons. Which is how much of the country views the sex industry, unfortunately.
Happened upon your page, very interesting ^-^
