    No they won't. The exchange of money for sex with a minor in California remains 100% illegal.

    Only for the adult who's paying the minor. The under age prostitute gets a free pass starting on the January 1st.

    Considering the huge amount of child prostitutes who are victims of coercion or human trafficking, how is that a bad thing?

    Most deviants and perverts masquerade as conservatives. Otherwise, a deviant pervert like Dennis Hastert would never be elected speaker of the house several times. It was well known during his time in Washington that he loved young boys. Even after he was exposed for his perverted behavior several high profile Republicans wrote letters to the judge pleading for leniency. Your crap about liberals only being involved with this behavior is a lie. Backward, bible thumping conservatives are the kings of sexual deviancy and always have been. Wasn't a very conservative US Senator caught trolling outhouses for sex a few years back?

    You and I live in, as I see this, the least freedom driven state of all. We battle government constantly to try to keep a scrap of freedom.

    When I was a child, in CA you could actually gamble legally. Slot Machines were all over the state.

    But the left decided to remove those freedoms.

    Women must have a valuable service to perform since men are eager and willing to pay some steep prices. I think men pay over what Doctors make per visit and want to pay it.

    Taxes must be why it is not legal.

    What is lesser known is women also pay for the same services as men pay for.

    I see pimps and unions in the same light.

    Legal prostitution in the state of Nevada requires the women to use pimps.

    First two words out of Democrats mouths

    Tax it
    Regulate it

    Next we will regulate what we breath and drink and eat

    Too late, they did that already

    Let me tell you all how it was in Holland in 1963.

    Prostitution was open. And you should have seen a lot of the women. They were equal to supermodels. Some of these women were lovelier than was Elizabeth Taylor.

    Other than the women working on Canal St, I believe it is, hotels had forms at the entry desk. There the prostitute had the man fill out the form, give it to the hotel, and for a very modest fee, use the hotel room for this purpose.

    At that time. the exchange rate was one dollar got you 3 guilders. The prostitute and room fee was as low as 5 dollars or 15 guilders.

    We modeled homosexuals getting married on the Dutch so why not their prostitute system?

    I know both cities. Elk Grove is what you expect from a very nice well built community. But the State Capitol, Sacramento is a few miles to the North west of Elk Grove. Elk Grove is serviced directly by highway 5, a major CA highway.

    Examine on the real estate sites and you will learn Elk Grove looks awesome.

    Sacramento though not near the crime city of say Detroit, has parts of the city were crime is serious. Too bad too since Sacramento has much to offer.

    Negative. It remains illegal for a minor to solicit sex from another minor.

    Frankly, I expect prices in Elk Grove to be lower than in the LA Area. But I really have not checked out LA at all.

    - - - Updated - - -

    The term illegal happens to be a temporary term.

    Things that are now illegal once were legal. And things once illegal are currently legal.

    Our criminal justice system should focus on restitution, not retribution, and where you can't identify a victim, there should be no crime.

    You're right, we should be sucking up polluted air and poisonous foods. At least we'd have our freedom!

    Every time I think you cannot possibly be more ignorant, you surprise.

    The first hooker in the Bible, Tamar, got a young goat as payment. So if hookers were paid with goats why would anyone have a problem?

    Nonsense as all it would do is not to arrest/jail the minor young women but the johns and any pimps involved would be facing serous felonies.

    In other word it would be far far from being legal.

    It should be legal, as long as there is no force or coercion present.

    Women are born with the nature of our desire, we are not.

    Therefore, we must earn their desire.

    How is this most often achieved? Materially, whether direct gains, or an overall better life.

    It stands to reason that the very nature of man and woman is that of prostitution, and the direct exchange being banned is not truly in the interest of societal health, but merely societal vanity.

    Yes, it should remain illegal, but a misdemeanor unless with a minor and then a major felony. Pimping should be illegal and forced prostitution should be a second degree felony, first degree if a minor.

    Keeping it a misdemeanor for adults keeps it off the streets. Prostituted lined up at airports, shopping mails and going door to door is not something that be legal.

    Well, government can control some of those aspects. like you can only sell services at a brothel or another place of business.
