Craigslist removes Adult Services section

[Yeah]

Craigslist removes its controversial adult section Breaking News | Wire Update News | News Wires -

Craigslist finally caved to the pressure they've received for their 'massage' ads by replacing the link to its Casual Encounters section with a CENSORED banner.

I expect those still interested will have to find the postings elsewhere on the site, and be quick on the trigger before they are flagged. Kind of like with guns.....

I saw it coming at some point........

I saw a vid about a reporter that put up an add to see what kind of a response it would get and she said the phone rang off the hook and kept filling up her voice mail and it rang untill she removed it.....

Talked to some pimps and some girls and they said it costs X amount and apparently it is paid for on the first date.... said they make a TON of money with the add....


P.S Casual is still there, it is the adult one that has censored...... I think the are trying to make a point with the censord part but anyone will admit to what was really going on with that section haha. I am sure the Casual section will be next because people will just use it..... looks like they allready are but I don't pay attention to those areas so that could be old news.

THE HUMANITY!!!!!!!!! Why couldn't they get rid of the for sale ads and keep the services section

Because services does not look as bad as adult..... and they know everyone will just move to it or casual haha.

call me a constitutionalist or American or something, but I think prostitution should be legal!!!!

Is it realy any different than these young bimbos that marry 90 year old men on their death beds?

how about the LOTS of women I have known that will gladly give sex if they know a guy will buy them jewelry, cars, houses, a meal, drugs, etc. whats the difference with cash? in the end each party knows what they want for a set price then they do it, and all walk away with what they wanted out of it. BOOM!!!! some gun stores dont even bend you over that easily

I agree. It's simply selling services.

Curious how prostitution isn't legal and politicians are. Both are screwing people for money.

I agree. It is a complete waste of resources to try and arrests the folks behind it. Who cares if people want to pay for sex?

That was awesome...he's awesome.

Yep. This will put a stop to prostitution once and for all.

If anyone wants to pay for a prostitue, go to the massage places that are open 9 to 9.

Don't say a word, just throw a 50.00 bill in the basket on the table.

I have had an interesting life.

I would also like to hear and debate a logical argument as to why it is illegal. I can pay somebody to perform piercings, I can pay someone to tattoo me, I can pay someone to cut off my hair. If I really want to get crazy I can pay for facelifts, electralysis or even pay someone to change my gender. But If I pay someone to have sex with me it is illegal.

I think that the funny thing is that it is legal to pay for fetishes. Like if it turns me on to pay a midget to hit me with a golf club that is legal; but if I pay an attractive woman for sex that is illegal.
