Question of the Day — 9 Apr 2020
Well, here is a topic that my friends and I were discussing. With the coronavirus alerts and the suggestion that everyone practice "social distancing," staying at least six feet apart, what is that doing to the "sex workers"? Has business at the brothels ended? Or do they just ignore the warnings and continue providing "services"?
On March 16, right after Nevada's governor issued his emergency declaration shutting down all non-essential businesses in the state, the Nevada Brothel Association stated that its member brothels would remain open. It didn't, to be sure, provide any justification for being included in the essential-business category; the press release did mention that the brothels would be reduced to "skeleton crews."
But a couple days later, when the governor included the brothels on the list of non-essential businesses in his next announcement about closings, the brothels complied and as far as we know, they're all shut down.
Besides, who wants to have sex with a skeleton anyway?
