Votes

[Naughtyboy]

I don't know exactly what percent of men use the services of escorts in Ireland. I would guess that about 3 to 5% of men see escorts on a reasonably regular basis, once or twice a month. That is a lot of votes given that the majority would be voters. Does anybody have better estimates? I for one do not like this personal attack on my freedom or the freedom of escorts to earn a living in a consenting private act between adults which causes nobody any harm. This push by the religious to push their morals on society is a bit of a U-turn on the direction society has been going since the 60's. It's like trying to ban condoms again or making sex before Marriage illegal for a man. Why don't they stick a bill head in the legislation (which otherwise seems OK) for those also while they are at it! England and other countries have not accepted this attack on peoples freedoms/rights.

I for one will be watching closely the voting tactics and I will definitely be taking it strongly into account when the next election comes around and other elections in the future. I will never vote again for a party that does not reject head 10 of the bill. Could it be that I will only be voting for independents for ever more? It will become a point of principle for me for an attack by the religious moralists on peoples freedom in this society. I wonder how many other people in this society feel the same way. A lot of votes I guess.
