That was what I was wondering - but then as Schnookololy (sp?) has said upthread apparently the US for example are. Wasn't aware of that.
For the record I would agree the easiest solution is just to abide by all the laws of the countries you live in. :thumbup:

Where are you getting the information that you would prosecuted?
Go to Brazil and bang a hooker if you wish as long as she is not a child. Sex tourism relates to child sex not adults. Brothels are legal in Germany and a host of other countries and I have yet to see any Canadian citizen be prosecuted.

:lol:I'm not that low

I admit my claims are based on hearing of someone being prosecuted in the US for sex tourism but not heard of it happening here... I rest my case.

so far as I can gather, prostitution is legal in Canada but publicly soliciting for sex is not...would explain the amount of Craigslist ads that are for prostitutes

It was likely charges related to under age sex tourism. Brothels are not illegal in all 50 states, at-least 1 permits brothers in certain regions of the state.
