Thanks a lot for the information! I didn't realize things were ever that good in the Bay area! In the early eighties, I had an apartment for a couple of years in North Beach, but was living with a beautiful Taiwanese chick, so never had to pay for it.
Frankly, even now I usually confine my whoring to Asia, but this just because of habit and price considerations. Tho beyond supply and price, another great thing about Asia is the much more relaxed/healthy attitude over here about prostitution. We're such hypocrites about sex in Jesus Land.
Shit, all those Korean girls in those massage parlors
! Sounds like it was Heaven! Can you believe that over here on SEX141, some of the Koreans pass themselves of as Japanese, because all of the local punters have Japanese porn-fed fantasies about the Nipponese AV girls and are willing to pay double the market price?! And then the Mongolians claim to be Korean!
So there was a crackdown in 2005! Just another delayed hysterical reaction to the the 911 thing. Traveling in and out of the States is becoming such a hassle that some of my European friends have said fuck it and go elsewhere.
