Sexual Issues In Las Vegas

There is a lot of shame surrounding addiction, and this may deter people from seeking treatment. It is common for one to face rejection from friends or family when they become open about their addiction and because of this fear, they often feel too ashamed to seek help. The person who is addicted will then continue to hide their addiction, often resulting in disastrous consequences. A 2015 study showed that only 20% of current opioid addicts receive treatment for their addiction, and a lot of this is attributed to stigma. By stigmatizing drug addiction and discouraging addicts from seeking treatment, we are allowing the life-ruining effects of addiction to continue

My paper will present the debatable question, should prostitution be legal in Las Vegas? As I argue for the issue, the reader must know that there is a misconceived idea that the city of sins, Las Vegas, is home to legal prostitution. In contrary to popular belief, prostitution is not legal in Las Vegas; there are rural areas in Nevada where brothels are running and prostitution is condoned, but in the county of Clark, it is the opposite. Although it may not be true, legalizing prostitution can bring Las Vegas and the people who work in such a profession multiple benefits. Any person who resides in this city of lights is aware of the busy streets that are filled with prostitution occurring even though the law is against it. Whether it 's the unkempt streetwalker or the high class escort, this seems to be a booming operation.

The safety of Nevada’s brothels is one of the main elements highlighted by Brents and other researchers. For instance, Brents found that 84% of the women that she interviewed felt safe. “Workers report that they felt safe largely because the police, employers and co-workers were there to protect them,” said Brents. Conversely, it’s important to note how much more dangerous the industry is in Las Vegas. Again, prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas, but there is a bit of a charade. It’s hard to believe that the city’s marketing campaign, “What

Looking at Nevada a state that has legal prostitution might help answer that question. It is the only state that has legal prostitution in the United States. A quick overview of history of Nevada’s prostitution history and where they are now. Nevada in the 19th century was a railroad town and in the early 20th century prostitution on the economy was beneficial and was allowed by the local government. The time the United States was active World War II the tolerance for prostitution in Nevada had changed and policies by the local government began to effect prostitution on Nevada; there was a change from 1905 where there was acceptance to 1955 where there was disparagement views on prostitution. (Rowley 2012) There have been laws passed for the

Until the Time Is Right Originally created for good, the devil has destroyed the idea of “waiting for marriage” and turned sex into something that today’s society flaunts flagrantly and openly with little respect for its first intention. God created sex for marriage and the devil has deceptively convinced people that it is fine to be open with things that need to stay between a husband and wife. This twisted logic is ingrained in today’s society and considered the “normal” and “everyone is doing it,” but is that logic really acceptable? Long before sexual promiscuity became the social norm, C.S. Lewis portrays the temptation to compromise God’s best plan for sexual fulfillment in his novel The Screwtape Letters.

Having a healthy sexual relationship is very important in a marriage (Heller, 2016). 1 Cor 7:3, Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.

Drug addiction is stigmatized throughout society. Stigma is seen in all types of situations; race, religion, disease, mental health, addiction, what a person’s social and economic standing is. All those examples can be stigmatized, and we, ourselves, do this every day and may not know we are. Because society and especially the media has engrained these moral judgments in our minds about what is right or what is normal. But we should take a second to think about these things a little more in depth before defaulting to what we think we know about these problems. In the case of drug addiction, we see stigma in all types of shapes and sizes. Whether in the media or walking to class with a group of friends, we see it more often than not. That feeling you get when you see a person on the street walking through the rows of cars at a stoplight. Some people (myself included) roll up their windows and avoid eye contact hoping they will just walk by. Chances are that person is in that situation because of a serious addiction and really needs help, but isn’t afforded that chance because we the normal people avoid them at all cost. Maybe we can change that. Maybe we can break through these common stigmas and begin to make a change in the way addiction is viewed in society.

It is a guarantee that entertainment based sites are founded upon the saying that “sex sells.” Las Vegas is not excluded from the list of cities that promote sex. People visit Las Vegas thinking that what happens here stays here, mostly in regards to sex. The city is becoming too consumed with the idea that sex sells that it has drawn out all the negatives that come with that association. The prevalence of organizations promoting sexual services in Las Vegas is rising due to the idea that sex sells. Such organizations hire promoters to hand out “business cards” on the Las Vegas strip. Billboards are no longer enough for these soliciting organizations. Solicitors promoting “special” services on the sidewalks of the strip create a negative image for the strip; turn tourists away from the strip; expose children to explicit images; and create a littering issue.

Christianity is a religion that is based off of, and adheres to the religious teachings of Jesus Christ. This section will focus mainly on how the aspects of alcoholism, fornication, and modesty are addressed within Christianity. Alcohol consumption is permitted in Christianity and Christ has often been portrayed in the Bible grasping a glass of wine. The Bible even states that "wine, which cheereth God and man” is that which does indeed “maketh glad the heart of man". However, the Bible states to those who drink excessively: “Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine, and valiant men in mixing strong drink” This clearly signifies a key concept of way with which intoxicants such as alcohol or drugs are perceived. If these narcotics provide happiness for mankind, there is no problem with consuming them. However, if these narcotics impair the senses, then the use of such drugs is greatly looked down upon. It is frowned upon by God. Therefore, this specific verse implies that it is not only excessive alcohol that is prohibited, but the use of any other substance that can cause a harmful effect for a human. This expands the definition of what was wine at the time to drugs in the modern world. Moving on, the issue of fornication in the Bible is greatly condemned. The Bible states that God encourages an individual to “Flee from sexual immorality.” An individual who commits adultery “will not inherit the kingdom of God.” Furthermore, in Christianity, women are encouraged to

Biblical writing tends to have strict laws about sex and sexuality and how it was expressed and universally accepted. The Pauline Epistles, or Paul’s views, had unique views on sex because he completely distrusted gender as a whole and because he believed that there would be an apocalypse. Many of Paul’s ideas were widely accepted back than because they explained may things that people could not, for instance it explains homosexuality. Today, the laws are seen differently and in some cases interpreted much more literally than they were back then. It is likely that ideas have changed either because people have become more understanding and accepting of others or because we no longer view sex and sexuality as a thing to be ashamed of. This new age of interpretation is seen in the way homosexuality is accepted today, submission of the wife to the husband in some religious dominations, and the ideal of marriage and its sexual implications.

Since the time of Christ, Christians have thought premarital sex to be a sin. Ancient Christians use to believe that "marriage was a second rate choice but if one lacked self control, he had to take
