Yeah, I don't think so. I bought them for my son and he carries them. That doesn't mean he is a prostitute. It means he is responsible and doesn't want to die for a few minutes of pleasure!!

OMG! So it means that the condom I have in my wallet "just in case" could make me a prostitute? That's hilarious really! That can't be serious!

Very well said. My thoughts exactly.

what? that's ignorant, and irresponsible to discourage condoms. there are so many things wrong in the world that stem from people being judgemental about other peoples private lives

That's silly, anybody should be able to carry condoms without question. Ridiculous. Obviously they need some more work to do or something?!

No way everyone should be free to protect themselves

such prehistoric reasoning for laws. the same flawed logic that goes into "abstinence only" sex education.

That's just as crappy as the dorm hall rules here. Money, condoms, some drugs can be connected, and there are even more things that can be present on prostitutes but none are solid evidence.

In college, my now hubby always had a back-pack half full of them. Could he have been charged as a "sex worker"...???? (He called it being a " horney college student").

I think it is a person's right to protect themselves for unsafe sex by carrying condoms. Plus using that as evidence you don't know if they are prostituting or just go home to a sex maniac and they don't want to get pregnant, or could just be skanky you don't know. There are so many factors besides getting money for sex that goes into buying condoms that using that as evidence should be frowned upon heavily.

I personally think it's disgusting. Having sex for money should be evidence of prostitution, not condoms. Making people think twice about having safe sex wont stop prostitution, only make it more dangerous.
Agreed.

That is absolutely ridiculous. If someone wants to carry around 47 condoms in their purse they have the right to do so. There are many diseases out there that can be prevented.
Hey...it's "nanny state city". If they don't arrest you for the condoms, they just might for having possessions of a large soda pop!

Absolutely not-Unless there is an extremely large amount of them.

The worst part is that this creates an incentive for prostitutes to not carry condoms, which makes the problems inherent to the trade, and the reasons for making it illegal, even more dangerous to public health.
This is my primary concern as well

Everyone has the right to safe sex. They should just legalize prostitution in a safe manner.

Yep. Legalize it, regulate it and tax it.

I AM curious, though--how many condoms does someone have to be carrying before it's considered evidence of prostitution?

It's humorous, yet upsetting at all the silly and antiquated laws that are still on the books around the country.
