Sex Cultures

Grissom gives a lecture on every ninja-loving pirate's favorite topic, Prostitution.

Discussion Question: Should prostitution always be illegal, should it be legal but heavily regulated, or do you believe it should be allowed to operate as any other business would?

[OOC: Soc. students, please handwave yesterday's classes as happening with a boring lecture and no homework. I apologize for the missing post.]

"Well, he runs stuff okay, I guess. But sometimes I think, he's, like, sleeping with other members of government or something. Cause, like, the situation the secretary of Education is in? She should be totally miffed about the crackdowns on strikes and stuff." Cally nods. "Workers unite, and the government tends to crack down. Stupid government."

Alanna blinked. "What's a strike?"

Cally shrugs. "It's this thing where the workers refuse to work until steps are made to improve their work situation," she says. "But I think we're kinda getting off topic."

"Riiight. Prostitution. I actually know quite a few prostitutes. And um, not like that."

"There's a place for that in town, isn't there?" Cally says. "We could, like, go do field research."

Alanna shrugged. "I think so? What would we be researching?"

"Dunno, we could see what they think?" Cally says. "I was just kinda scratching for ideas. Dunno what else to say."

"That might actually be interesting, getting a different prespective and all that. If we need a final project, I think we're set."

"Score," Cally says with a nod.
