So, here's an interesting conundrum.
The Maidenfans rules don't mention anything about the law, with the exception of copyright law. We've long considered copyright law as the single most serious threat to the forum. It is not currently against the rules to encourage someone to break the law, and that's partially because "which law should count?"
Seriously. Should we go by the laws in Mexico? Estonia? Czechia? UK? Canada? USA? Saudi Arabia? Singapore? Which jurisdiction in those countries? We've long tolerated discussions of drug use and other similar things that are broadly, but not universally illegal, as long as it doesn't violate the rest of the rules. I certainly consider employing a sex worker to be within this area of tolerance. I see nothing wrong nor immoral with the employment of sex workers within safe and consensual environments.
While it is true that, depending on region, traditional methodologies of employing a sex worker are rife with crime and violence, this is also not universally true. I would have preferred to see more emphasis on ensuring the ethical nature of such employment, but, in general, I find nothing within that aspect that requires moderation.
Similarly, I see very little that is actionable about the post-sex work part of the conversation. Some members have said things I find morally reprehensible, but I'm not here to tell people how to view the world, only what is appropriate to post here - and to remove them if they are unable to obey the rules.
However, I do think the diversion from the main conversation is significant, and we should all try to return to the actual discussion rather than a side tangent on swinging or on the morality of sex work.
I will remind everyone, however, that:
Forum members will ensure they post in a respectful fashion towards their fellow members. This includes avoiding insults, escalating arguments, and attacking new forum members for being ignorant of rules (written or unwritten). Forum members will follow moderator guidance when arguments are deemed to no longer be in good faith or otherwise become detrimental to the community experience. Forum members will be cautious when discussing sensitive material. Spoiler tags and content warnings are encouraged when reasonably required.
With that in mind, I think it's time to return to the original discussion, and to avoid personal attacks, be they coded or direct.
