We don't really have a disagreement. I never said that sex was "just about procreation", I said that life was, at it's core, a copying operation and sex was a prevalent mechanism, and this had some...

Nice discussion.

How do you know that the productivity of scientists declines after marriage? It tends to decline with age, too. And some become lazy when they get tenure. What percentage of Nobel...

Moral issues concern things you should and should not be doing, as they affect yourself or other people negatively. Yes, neglecting child support would be an example. Depleting the kids' college fund...

Here's a little more of my perspective on the morality of prostitution, to add to what I said before.

There are two main moral problems: 1) bringing unwanted risk of disease to unsuspecting...

I agree with you somewhat, and appreciate the thoughtful reply. I still claim that life is a copying operation and sex is the favored mechanism. What is the "sex magic" of the flatworm, the amoeba,...

Here's my theory about the morality of prostitution. I may have said some of this before (can't remember, too lazy to look it up).

Life is a copying operation. It started some 4 billion years ago,...

i think the main difference is that porn is protected in the usa by the first constitutional amendment that protects free speech, although there are limits on that. there have been several legal...

Hi Ford

What I can suggest about hotels is that you get a copy of the Lonely Planet guide to Jamaica and peruse the listings. As you probably know, the high-end places and resorts are typically...

I visited the downtown area on two evenings on a recent trip. I was in the area between Kawarmachi-dori and Kiyamachi-dori, south of the Sanjo-dori which Tarheel Josh mentioned in his excellent...

Yes, Alex, I forgot to mention that a happy, charming personality can work wonders.

But back to the topic (morality of ....): This has probably been said before, but here's my take. If a man...

Wan King, you made some interesting observations. From what I've seen, there are very few men 30+ who are playboys. I've met a few, but they are rare, and I'm not one of them. As you said,...

Very useful story. I didn't have any trouble in Athens strip clubs yet, but one thing I always instinctively do is ask about the price of everything BEFORE I buy it. Even after that, I guess they...

You've shown us how it can be done, Billy Bob. Anyone who can afford to travel to Jamaica and stay a week can afford the professionals, but why we all like semi-pro's and non-pro's is the...

I visit Athens periodically on business. Late last year I went to a few strip clubs in the Syngrou Ave area. They generally had about half Russian girls, and then Eastern European and African. ...

Ok, I consider myself to be properly chastised. I think my anecdote and the responses are nevertheless useful and it is not likely one "fool" will skew the world market. It would take a vast number...

On my first night in MoBay, a beautiful and casually dressed black Jamaican women in her early twenties caught my eye near Margaritaville. I invited her to dinner, and on our way we passed through a...

After only a week in Jamaica in early Dec 05, and after reading some guidebooks, I cannot claim to be an expert on the scene, but this much seems pretty conclusive: Of all the opportunities to find...

I spent 2 days in early Dec 05 on the Hip Strip. Although I adore black Jamaican women, I was not impressed by the 25 hookers I saw at night walking the strip, and I did not partake. Short hint:...

After being blown off course by hurricanes last year, I finally made it to this tropical paradise in early Dec 05. One hint: avoid hurricane season.

Jamaica is not really a sex vacation...

Follow-up on my message below from May.

In America it's a big challenge, and very inefficient, but I like a challenge !! Of course I can understand a guy just giving up and taking a flight to the...

There is a fascinating editorial in The Economist (magazine) about Prostitition, Sept 2, entitled "Sex is Their Business"

I delayed my trip a few months because of the bad weather. I may as well ask a few questions, Jam21 or someone else may know.

I was thinking of staying in a middle-level hotel near the beach, not...

Hi funker,

As I haven't been there yet, all I know is what I read here (WSG) and in some guidebooks. Close Encounters in downtown Negril is one strip club. According to reports here (read below)...

I'd warn that I haven't actually been to Jamaica yet, but I'm going in August. I found a really cheap ticket, and based on research it looks like a reasonable gamble. I thought I'd share what I...

One issue rarely, perhaps never considered in the WSG is the possibility of finding semi-pros in discos, bars, and strip clubs. These are girls who don't consider themselves professionals but might...
