Agreed !! After all, every guy interested in sex with a girl pays for it, one way or the other~either by dropping money on a girl for dinner, flowers, a movie, before getting in her pants or by seeing a provider. The only difference in the two scenarios is, the girl makes the money directly from the latter and it is spent on her in the former. Either way, we pay for sex.

So, why not face this fact and legalize the trade? What's wrong, after all, with a guy wanting to skip the preliminaries and getting right down to business? It's a lot less hassle not to mention a lot less money.

You think the anti-sex brigade that criminalizes the private activities of consenting adults would stop at CL?

Some of the responders did indeed pick up on the fact that if CL is forced to remove adult services, then that will have an inpact on other adult advertising sites. In the MSNBC series I mentioned, take a wild guess which other site's screenshots were shown? Now, the site was not specifdically mentioned by name, but it was not difficult to recognize the site. Don't think that this only affects Craigslist.

CL was good in that women who thought about it might do it once. I met a lot who would meet me for coffee and talk and were open to an arrangement, had thought about it, and did it maybe a few times but not again. These were exciting, natural experiences that felt like the real thing. Any woman on RB will feel like a pro, it may still be fun but won't be the same as a mutually beneficial arrangement and open-minded woman trying it for the first time, seeing the feeling of power and adventure in her eyes. I think a lot of women that don't want to do it a lot will do it once with a decent-looking guy who talks them into it, it's a secret fantasy of many.

I even had one once pay me back the second time, I gave her 200, she called me the next day, I said I was broke, she said come over, I hesitated, she said I'll pay you, got the 200 back. She was in her early '30s and gorgeous, and on vacation from New York. She passed out drunk after hours of sex and I peeked at her ID, it was in plain view on a table. I googled her later and found out she had an MBA from Brown (Ivy League), and had a prestigious job and earned over $300,000 a year, far more than I, in Manhattan. She obviously didn't need any money, and was living out a fantasy. She was successful but had an alcohol problem. Now those were happy fun times and it won't happen on RB.
