If they opened a pop-up restaurant or nightclub, I'd be pissed too; this wasn't a contract to sublet a space for commercial use after all. You can get libertarian about sex work, while ignoring the abuse of an agreement between to parties.
- JoeAltmaier 10y agoI don't think a brothel serves as many people as a restaurant in an evening? Those other examples are skewed toward obvious wear-and-tear and traffic problems. While the brothel example might not be distinguishable from a couple on vacation having a party, except for the money-changing-hands angle. Lets admit, its the moral angle at issue. The rest is after-the-fact arguments pasted on to make it seem like an objective thing.
- M_Grey 10y agoI don't know if it's moral or "squigged out". The former I have no patience for, the latter... I'm human too, and I like spiders, but they repulse me. Sometimes we don't make a ton of sense, but when you don't agree to rent out your home as a brothel, you shouldn't have to worry about it being used as one. As to wear and tear... it's a brothel... and not in a movie; you might be surprised at the turnover. Edit: I realize that "have no patience for" sounds pretty snotty... I've been a little sleep deprived lately and it isn't bringing out the best in me, sorry. Edit 2: I also realize that the issue of the brothel, totally aside from the homeowner's feelings, might represent a property value issue, in the same way as a previous murder. It doesn't have to sensible for it to hit him in the pocket; obviously sex work doesn't leave some kind of "spiritual residue" anymore than violent death, but people are often irrational.
