Live Sex Shows Legal in Oregon

I dont care if live sex shows are legal or not.. what i am concerned with is the public around the club! Property value will decress! Also, would you like to have a sex club right next to you and your young kids being exposed to that sort of thing should be recognized!

Have you heard of zoning laws? I don't think you have to worry about a sex club moving next door.

No idea about zoning laws. I heard on the news radio today and in the state paper it has to potential of decreasng property value, no matter what is around you, if it is a mom and pop shop or a home!

That's a risk you take when you buy property. Property values might also decrease because of polluting factories or noisy train stations, but no one says we shouldn't have those things. What makes this a special exception?

Where I'm from, you can't even see through the windows of adult video stores. I'm sure the laws about public display are even more strict with these live sex shows, so I don't think you need to worry about your young kids being exposed to it even if they lived next door.

O man, the religious right, once again is trying to hold humanity back, and turn back all progress!

if you dont watch out they will bring back the victorian age
 
The customers are very likely not in a position (no pun intended) to have live sex at home, and their porn stash is getting stale to them, so they go out to get a little extra boost to their libido. That is the nature of sex. It is the most addictive thing there is outside of real drugs. The next most addictive thing is religion. We already have government taking a look at what they perceive to be cults, which are designated so by the established religions.
So be careful about trying to legislate against our non-drug type addictions. Yours could be next.:lol:

Gots to come up with a list of priorities....
Here is the deal, you have to choose from this list only.
Place in order of importance what you would rather do for the next 30 minutes.

1. Have sex (good sex, with a partner)
2. Watch sex
3. Have sex alone
4. go to church
5. read/post on this forum

I am betting that going to church will be a low priority even for the deeply religious among us. Human nature is what it is.....:3oops:

Dude, if they're gonna cheat they're gonna cheat. Watching live porn as opposed to video taped porn isn't gonna change that.
I understand you're not comfortable with the idea of people being able to pay to watch live sex, but you have to remember that your morals aren't neccisarily everyone's morals, and the one unifying belief we hold as Americans is the idea of freedom, and thus people should be able to set their own morals and do whatever they want for all practical purposes, regardless of how immoral you find it.

So then murder and stealing should be legalized too right? If something is immoral it shouldn't be legalized.

Murder and stealing have a real victim. Live sex shows do not, as everyone involved is consenting.

Morality, and immorality, are not legal issues in this country, unless you want to give up the concept of seperation of church and state. Trust the founding fathers, you do NOT want that. There isn't a religious leader in the world who can rule righteously, as all are human, and humans are weak.
The state CAN rule on when and where immoral acts are allowed to be performed or viewed. Protecting the majority from the whims of the minority is just as important as keeping the majority from oppressing the minority.

Or do you have a religious leader in mind who can rule without taking from us the God given right of free agency?

I read a transcript of a story “Sex in the Northwest”, The O‘Reilly Factor.
Ann Bremner:
“a liberal is someone that knows what's good for you better than you know yourself.”​
Bill O’Reilly:
“I mean, Oregon is now outflanking California as the most left wing state in the union.”​
Dave Reinhard:
“I like to call it ground zero in the culture of death.”​
The broadcast wasn’t about sex, it was about “liberals”.
And...what? I don't get it?
While reading the transcript of the 10-10-05 O‘Reilly Factor, the broadcast referred to in post #1, it occurred to me that the story about live sex shows was just a pretext for another bout of liberal slamming. Implied is that “naughty” liberals are bringing us live sex. Can’t tell from the story whether the owners of any such establishments are liberal. I bet some may be part of Bush’s “Ownership Society” though.

If you don’t understand the difference between a sex show and murder, then you do need a law for everything. As for the rest of us, we haven’t authorized any government to legalize anything, save alcoholic beverages (21st Amendment).
 
Live sex shows? That's awesome. I don't see what's wrong with that. No one is being hurt, and it only increases happiness for those participants. People should be focusing on attacking something important, not some social taboo.
 
As long as we are dependent on money, there will be these types of things. Personally, I don't see anything wrong about it, it's not like someone's getting hurt, and besides, the participants know exactly what they are getting into.

I watched The O'Reilly Factor tonight (for 10-10-2005) and he mentioned that live sex shows are legal in Oregon. It's the only state in the union where they are legal.

What do you guys think about this?

I think we should pass a national law banning live sex shows as to safeguard the moral foundation of this country.

Note to self:

Move to Oregon at earliest convenience.

:lol:
 
Its just another example of the moral decay that is taking place in this country....I can remember and it was not to long ago that if you wanted to see and X-rated movie you had to travel to the shadiest part of town and watch it in some little hole in the wall theater.....Now you can get and X-rated movie at you local video store with any perversion you wish to see.........

I will say if there is a big guy up there in the sky and I truly believe there is, and if he is looking down on all of this he can not be happy.......

As we use to like to say aboard ship when the weather got a little rough...."Standby for heavy rolls to port."

Why, pry tell, wouldn't he/she be happy? There's nothing more beautiful than the human body. We were born naked, why are we ashamed of it now?

Ah, do you even know what a sex act is?

Hey you changed your avatar..........:lol:

Of course I do, are we even talking about women performing "sex acts?" Still, I don't see a problem with that. Once again, as long as we have money, there will always be prostitution. Selling one's body, IMO is just like selling one's mind, or their hands to do physical labor.

:rofl Navy, I bet you're one of those hard-core "Christian" dogmantics, right? Trying to delay and retard all human progress at any cost. Your kind always pull out the lame ploy of "ethics" to condemn all advancements."That's immoral, or unethical, or against God's will", please. Get over yourself. Who gives a **** what your imaginary man in the clouds thinks. It's the exact same thing as valueing the opinion of a kid with a ****ing ant farm.
