between a prostitute and a porn star.
Each has "relations" for money. Yet on COPS, the prostitutes get arrested regularly while the "movie stars" do not.
Does that mean if a man wants to hire a "lady of the night" he should carry a video camera with him?
Does the adult film star have some sort of licence making her job legal?

Here is the best way that I can think of for you to answer your question.
Find a web site that has mug shots of people arrested for soliciting as prostitutes. Then, find a web site with pictures of porn stars. Compare the two pictures. See the difference?

This question is one that I ask all the time. There is never a good answer. The law is the law right now. Even when it does not make sense.
So, if you are going to solicit a prostitute, it would seem instead of asking for sex for (insert amount), just show her the camera and ask her is she would like to star in an adult movie for (insert amount). I doubt it would work, but who knows. Either way, the officers doing the sting would get a good laugh out of it.
Under the same thinking, Texas has the lottery, but will not allow casino style gambling. What is the difference? Both are peoplepaying money in the hopes of winning more money, when everyone knows that in both, the odds are always on the house.

The main difference here is that both porn stars that are "doing it" are getting paid, not just one. It is not an offence to hire two people to do it on camera for you.
*The offence is to communicate for the purpose of prostitution, not the sex act itself. In prostitution one person is offering sexual services to another for a fee. The other person getting the sexual service is paying for it not getting paid to do it.

In some places prostitution is legal
Nevada and other places
Porn movies are made in areas where it is legal to make them
If they were made in other places it would be illegal
The laws vary greatly from place to place
In some places it is illegal to own or view porn

There is a legal release that the actors/actresses sign. There are legal documents on most porn workers. This would include the periodic test results for sexually transmitted diseases. They keep everything in writing to comply with the laws.

Prostitution is the exchange of money or any other type of compensation for a sexual favor. Porn stars aren't being paid by a customer to have sex with them, but instead are being paid to entertain you and me by having sex.

YOU don't get to sleep with a porn star, while you can with a prostitute. Therefore, porn stars have more honor. =)

What True _ Blue said. Also the actors are being paid by a third party.
So I guess if you want a hooker, not only will you need a video camera, you need to find someone who will pay her and/or him, and you..................
