A young disabled man who receives care for his life-limiting illness at a hospice run by a nun spoke yesterday of his decision to use a prostitute to experience sex before he dies.
Sister Frances Dominica gave her support to 22-year-old Nick Wallis, who was born with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Sufferers usually die by their thirties.
Mr Wallis told staff at the Douglas House hospice in Oxford that he wanted to experience sexual intercourse. He explained that he had hoped to form an intimate and loving relationship with a woman, but his disability had acted as a barrier.
He told The Daily Telegraph: "It was a decision two years in the making and I discussed it with my carers and my parents. Telling my mother and father was the hardest part, but in the end they gave me their support.

Just having a dying wish doesn't justify all things. Some might wish for a 9-year-old, or a harem, or for their enemy's head.
The rubbing of empty bodies is not this. Not even close.

But it's a darn good substitute in the meantime!
It was funny when Charlie Sheen asked about why he payed prostitutes for sex when he said.
"I don't pay them for sex, I pay for them to leave"
Please read my post #240. If I had seen this post, I would have included your name on it.
So if he were to die from an illegal substance you provided him (or sanctioned him to obtain under your care) you would see no difference between that death and one that wasn't violating the law? I suspect your angle wouldn't get you off in court.
LMAO! You are on all of them, too!
Did you see my post #240. I just want to cry at how we women want to control everything about men, even their urges.
"and quite enjoyable I might add!"
Thanks for clearing that up for us.
Yes, the male instinct to survive is to pro-create, it's inbred, no stopping it, suppressing it is not doing God's will, it's denying our nature.
Men are instinctually attracted to women for fertility, to pro-create to survive. Also a reason why so many men are attracted to younger women. This instinct causes men to destroy their marriages, relationships, etc. too.
To understand the beast you have to know the beast.
not attempoti ng to tell you what you feel- just saying feelings don't equal spirituality is all-
I believe you may have misunderstood my point. Sex itself is not the act of an uncontrollable animal unless it's something that one can not control.
I know we're simply not going to agree on this point because my opinion is informed by my religious beliefs and it would appear you do not share the same beliefs. Simply stated, God created sex, but only for specific contexts. Wanting to have sex with some hot woman one would normally not attract simply isn't adequate to justify prostitution in my view. This individual may have experienced the physical act of sex, but he really didn't experience what sex is intended to be, he only experience the weakest shadow...he was really cheated.
That's about as close as the article comes to whether or not it is legal near where he lives.
"and quite enjoyable I might add!"
Thanks for clearing that up for us.

I'm always available for any clarification you may need, feel free to ping me any time.
It seems that the people on this thread have a very rye sense of humor. And their attitude is wheat, drink, and be merry. Some really crusty comments too!
And when did I claim otherwise? I fully expect that were I caught, I would be punished, regardless whether I believe the law is just or not.
And yes, I believe blue laws such as these are unjust and unworthy of a society of free men. Doesn't mean I think I can break them with impunity.
Of course you're right. But there are women here who just don't understand that.
I suspect your angle wouldn't get you off in court.

Only if the judge was REALLY HOT!
I'm a bit of two minds on this account. I'm not one who believes all laws should echo my personal faith...one of the things that makes this country great is choice. On the other hand, there are consequences for partaking of "blue" activities...and at some point those consequences move from affecting just the individual and affect society, so it isn't truthful if one were to try to claim they don't affect anyone else.
