Talk:Prostitution

Do we have a source on it being illegal on Federation worlds? Jaf 13:53, 27 Sep 2005 (UTC)Jaf

Farian female and Mareel
Is the image of the Farian female, located at File:FarianFemale.jpg and the Farian article, one of the prostitutes? I'm just curious because I think a photo of a nonhuman prostitute should be on the page. Also, on the page it implies that Mareel is a prostitute, yet it says nothing of the like on her page, except for a vague reference to a "difficult life." Does anyone know what's up with that?

I have no recollection of anyone ever saying prostitution is illegal on Federation worlds. Maybe it might be looked down upon by a lot of people. But, so would drinking alcohol. Prohibition only breeds black markets. Romulan ale, anyone? Cite your source or face deletion.--Mike Nobody 04:20, 4 Oct 2005 (UTC)

First Contact Episode reference?
Wouldn't what Lanel did to Riker in exchange for helping him escape from the hospital technically be prostitution? --31dot 22:26, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that is a bit of a stretch... --OuroborosCobra talk 01:29, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * She wasn't doing it for money, nor was it her profession, which basically just makes her a slut. ;) --Alan 02:26, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, if you think about it, she paid for the sex by helping Riker escape, so that sort of makes Riker the prostitute :D --OuroborosCobra talk 03:11, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
