Legal stuff

I was bored today so I had a re-read of the PRA and other laws surrounding it.
Well I found something that would put an end to an ongoing debate on AdultForums.

You have the right to refuse to have sex with a client for any reason, or for no reason. No one- including managers, receptionists, minders, clients, other workers, etc., can force you to have sex with a client, even if he has paid. Managers cannot fine you for refusing a client- it is against the law for them to do so.

Section 17 of the PRA gives every sex worker the right to refuse to
provide, or she/he continue to provide, a commercial sexual service to any
person. The fact that the person has entered into a contract to provide
commercial sexual services does not limit the sex worker’s ability to
withdraw his or her services or consent.
And that's the end of that argument and then some.
Guys wanna hope crack whores don't get a hold of this piece of information, or you can kiss the booking goodbye, as well as your money.

One law that I found particularly interesting was this:
If you are a brothel operator, or a client, you can be fined or imprisoned if you hire a sex worker who is under 18. It is also illegal to receive money from a sex worker under the age of 18. It is not illegal to be a sex worker if you are younger than 18. However, if you hire a sex worker under 18 to work in your brothel, or if you are a client who hires a sex worker under 18 to provide you with sexual services, you are breaking the law.
This ones interesting isn't it? Be very careful guys.
That's actually quite scary, that's like.. if you get caught your totally going to get your ass raped in jail and have the shit kicked out of you.

There were also various Health protection laws I read through, but if people don't know those by now, they are dumbasses. Go hang out with HarryR haha, catch some herpes and some aids. It can be like a male bonding kind of thing.

hahaha nice post, but if you refuse a client, who's paid... don't they get their money back?! cos otherwise, i could advertise, meet a guy, take their money then tell them to sod off??

Nah they get their money back haha. Its all dependent on the provider of service though. So they could book a crack whore who all of a sudden decides she doesn't wanna go through with the booking anymore, and from my experience with crack whores, they will keep your money. Depends on the kinds of girls or parlors people use I guess.
