"but they'll work 60 hours/week of labor for five minutes of nookie every three to five weeks."

Time to go on strike!

I personally think the Islamofascists are looking for all nations to fly the white flag (AKA the French Battle Flag) at all airports.

practitioners of the world's oldest profession.
They're midwives?

No, farmers.

And do not forget the citizens who keep the sex slave trade alive by seeing a human being as just another commodity.

There's a reason corporations call it "Human Resources"
Outsourcing consultants are guilty too.

The size of the stick is not the problem....

You can't make butter with a toothpick.

One can have a bit of fun this way: Strike up a conversation with a young lady, say, of college age whom you know. Ask her if she'd have sex with (point someone out) for $100. She'll probably say no. Then, ask her again and up the price to, oh, $5,000. She'll probably again say no. Keep going until she wavers and/or eventually says yes for the amount suggested.

Then, tell her she's a prostitute. She won't like that, but insist that she is. After she gives you a break between the steam blasts out of her ears -- tell her that it has already been established that she's a prostitute, the two of you are just arguing about the price.

"Prostitute: I'll do anything you want for $200 dollars ............. Man: Here's your cash, now paint my house!" ---

That seems pretty funny ....... UNTIL YOU SEE THE CRUMBY JOB THE GIRL DID ON YOUR HOUSE!

P., I only pinged you because those are the rules here.

"Frontline" did a show about this:

Well, if they're so desperate to crack down on the problem, why not go to (say) the arrivals lounges of British airports?

Your logic is impeccable.

May I buy you as my sex slave?

I believe it was Oscar Wilde who put the issue so well.

They're midwives?

No, that would be the second oldest profession :D

[hedgetrimmer]

All in the name of "free trade".

...speaking no English..

This isn't any bargain, because she doesn't speak English.. Wake up guys, it doesn't say she is quiet.. sheeesh.. Who hasn't heard a woman babbling and you didn't understand a word of what she was saying!! DUH! Sex or no sex, it didn't make her any less annoying.. :)
