This made me laugh — why I don't know!

"Organised crime gangs are setting up foreign language schools to act as a front for prostitution, Fine Gael’s spokesman on immigration and integration Denis Naughten has claimed.

Mr Naughton said bogus schools, established by organised crime groups, were assisting students in obtaining visas by providing the necessary documents.

Members of the Oireachtas were informed during a cross-party briefing on Wednesday 'that language schools in Dublin are breeding grounds for prostitution. We need urgent action to deal with the proliferation of sex trafficking into Ireland’s €80 million illegal sex industry,' he said."

Im still just glancing at the lists of where prostitution is/isn't/is sort of legal :dunce:

Prostitution is one thing that strikes fear into so many people. Rightly or wrongly I don't see escorts as prostitutes! I know many will laugh at me for that statement but that is my personal view.

I would be a relatively fussy person when it comes to who I associate with. I don't mean being snobbish or anything like that but of all the ladies I have met through E-I there are none who I would feel uncomfortable with in my local having a drink! Well actually, there might be a tad of unease.... Me and such gorgeous ladies! Let's face it — probably not very plausible in the cold light of day — but I'd still be happy to be with them ;)

My idea of a prostitute on the other hand.... No thanks ;)
