No doubt this is a problem for massage parlours & spas that want to stay on the up and up. Hey I’ve got tons of massage experience all on the non erotic side and have never thought of giving one. Yet, it’s always been in the back of my mind about being asked for one and delicately redirecting the client elsewhere.
There will always be erotic massages – as long as there are humans. One thing leads to another and it becomes a conscious choice. What makes it nefarious is the money. Now we’re talking about an entirely different ball game and where all of this stuff leads too.
Prostitution and erotic massages should be legalized. It makes sense there’s a natural human need from the lack of quality relationships. One way or another you’ll go looking for it to satisfy a natural human animal instinct driven by the urge to pro-create. It’s undenial and for 99% of the population who can’t keep it in their pants without prostitution and erotic massages, it puts communities at risk.
If you shut, close, impose difficulties on erotic massages, never mind prostitution – you are moving the problem elsewhere to be resolved just like drugs. You’ll need more police, more jails, more security cameras, more money, more this more that….
It’ll put innocent kids at risk in local communities from people in desperate need. These issues as much as drugs need to be looked at square in the eyes. Wishing for it to go back into the bottle is NOT DOABLE.
Cities that don’t face up to finding a legal solution to a basic normal human urge and displaces the risk where kids become easy targets of heinous crimes deserve as much blame as the people who commit them. It’s a Conscious Choice to avoid controversy. If the problem exists, come up with a solution no matter how unpalatable it is. Until we’re all Angels, Hell will keep raising it’s ugly head and that costs everyone dearly and more importantly children.
The Bullying has now become and turned into Sexual Predators.
This is a global phenomena – not just Calgary’s – but we’re talking and that’s much better than Ottawa and Ontario where I lived and nothing was ever done about these issues.
All they did in Ottawa on Merivale Road is close down ‘MAGIC HANDS’ – whoopie do. What do you call it now – ‘DOWN UNDER’ ? Problem isn’t solved it changes.
And that goes for Bathhouses of all types too – cleanliness, safety and accountability.
If it’s legal, accountable, clean, safe, but most of all Consensual, then I have no problems with it. And too boot, governments can tax to recoup it’s costs.
As it stands, everything costs money and taxpayers are on the hook from A to Z.
It’s not rocket science and you don’t need a Ph. D. to make it work – just people who realize what human nature is all about and work humanely to make it work for as many as possible.
