Red Light Districts Legal in Taiwan

"Instead of crumpets, you get a whore!" - Cenk Uygur

[MultiUniv3rsal]

The only thing that banning prostitution accomplishes is to run prostitutes from the cat houses to the street corners while denying them the same protections as any other type of worker.

[YukioSnowoBloom]

wait... geisha are not prostitutes! wtf

[iiKitty03]

They are just lady boy aka shemale who don't wear protect.

[Snyper20]

[shakeval]

these subtitles tell such a crazy story, completely different than the story

[Lets1Eat2The3Chibis]

@shakeval tree walkers... 

[miamicrackheads]

And by the way, I LOVE HOOKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[miamicrackheads]

Your an idiot. we all at some time or another do things that we have to and dont want to. are you going to take care of them? No so shut the f up. let people do what they want do do and stop the republican communist thinking.

[Preetima1125]

@Catskywatcher113005 well that's your choice and belief. Do you think these women want to be prostitutes? Do you think they love the idea of sleeping with strangers every night just so they can support themselves? Don't be so naive. Everyone has their reasons and it's their choice, not yours.

[Catskywatcher113005]

@Preetima1125 You defend it like if you are a prostitute or often need one. But its ok, do you. I have my reasons to dislike it. Who the hell has ever died from the lack of sex? And I would more easily understand a woman in a very hard situation having to choose to do that until she can get a better job. But most of these prostitutes do it because its easy money to buy stupid shit they don't need. Our society has conditioned us to believe that sex is more important than it really is.

[Jeridiculous]

PROSTITUTE SUPPLIES

[BadVoodo0]

lol one of the funny TYT cast

[Catskywatcher113005]

Prostitution is simply wrong all around. WTF

[codediporpal]

@Catskywatcher113005 Wrong does not equate to "should be illegal". Picking up a new sex partner at a bar every night is wrong. Being a drunk is wrong. Smoking is wrong. Watching TV instead of doing your homework is wrong. The question is where the law should step in, and Taiwan is a place where they have wisely decided sex for money between consenting adults is not on of those places.

[Catskywatcher113005]

@codediporpal Im 23 and had only 1 sexual partner so far. I believe that sex should not be treated as just recreation. Sex should be between two people that love each other. I get frustrated with prostitution and promiscuity because it is disgusting, dangerous and unhealthy. I wouldn't want my husband to be with a prostitute and then with me. I dont want to catch an STD. Even single lonely people should not use prostitution, that's what masturbation is for.

[miamicrackheads]

@Catskywatcher113005

Only one sexual partner huh? Damn, you must have some amazing stuff down there. Wow, would like to taste that.

[Catskywatcher113005]

@miamicrackheads Sex is very special to me. Call me crazy for being more romantic then slutty.

[buakawkaoklai]

CENK IS THE MAN...MORE POLES THAT YOU BARGAIN FOR...LMAO

[MultiSamTaylor]

Fucking someone who fucks for a living---- ewwwwwwww nasty! Some people are just plain stupid!

[reg12269]

@MultiSamTaylor its the oldest profession dumbass, get with the program of life

[Frances3654]

3:33

a wild snorlax appears.

[payasoinfeliz]

they do that in mexico too. as a 14 yr old i went into a barbershop and was offered free soda, and saw scantily clad women walking to backrooms. the woman that was cutting hair next to me had no bra, and you could see through her shirt. they give expensive haircuts.

[aliensupremacy]

well i guess we can say there red - y to open red light districts in taiwan

[OrbitFighter]

"so is he getting the facial, or is he giving the facial?"

they are talking about sex and prostitutes... you figure it out.

[SaudiPseudonym]

Asia, land of the free?

[osp80]

hell,i would actually expect to get jerked off in a asian massage parlor...

[mesmokumpeacepipe]

I wish I could give Ana a facial

[brandnutopian]

Believe me, if a masseuse has sex on the menu, she'll grab your junk at some point and let you know.

[NotRelatedToBob]

almost no-one in England has tea and crumpets!

[DaCatOnTop]

lmao what a hilarious videdo...as usual Cenk makes me laugh; I burst out laughing when he said "Surprise!!!" lmao

[TheLogicman1]

Taiwan.... the safe house for nationalist china.... legalizes prostitution... God we are so far behind

[blckjade05]

HONEEYYYYY????!!! guess where our next honeymoon is going to beeeee!!

here's a hint, its got nothing to do with your pain in my ass mother so itll make me happy and theres a chance i might get explainable rash.

[AMagicalUsername]

Legalizing prostitution is the answer to the problem. To the ones that are against it, start commuting like everybody else. Sometimes you have to drive to opportunity. ;)

[kylem1112]

LoL. Ana likes the phrase "rub and tug."

[theautomaster]

As part of the legalization, I would think STD and HIV testings would be required.

The John's should be required to get STD test as well

[SummerInTahoe]

That's the way it should be.. free market for all.

[OMGitsSEVEN]

I really enjoyed this vid

[5starchiccccca]

@jaluck i think it is but i don't know for sure, becuause they sell health cards for prostitutes to know have no std's prostitutes on "Cops" probably didn't have cards

]\

[1thruZ]

I like how Cenk starts off "it was to legalize prostitution so it was a good thing" as if that's the one thing that's for certain.

[ihaterobbie123]

@1thruZ It is for certain. Once industry (and prostitution IS an industry) is legalised the government can start collecting tax from it. Not only that, the government can impose regulation pertaining to things like disease prevention and worker safety, which are huge issues surrounding illicit prostitution.

I don't even agree with Cenk that there's a downside, disease-spreading sex workers need to be reigned in. They cause damage and devastate lives just for money.

[WangDugay]

When the cops raid the brothel, some men came out running, others ran out cumming :P :P :P

[EvilFingers]

@WangDugay LOL, thats sick and funny at the same time!

[DrMasaaki]

@WangDugay That almost happen to me in Dubai.

[Direksone]

Have fun. You will meet lots of shemales.

[mike61524334251]

Legalizing prostitution is one thing, but in certain areas that's messed up. I think prostitution in all areas should be legalized.

[Fifty1stState]

03:24 Cenk wants Crumpet? I hope his wife doesn't mind!

"Nudge of the nudge of the wink of the wink of the hows ya father" as the Python's would say!

[Fifty1stState]

0:55 Okay, Cenk must have realised what he just said!

[Fifty1stState]

@Fifty1stState He still has a stright face!

[marcatiede]

5:58 chingchong moment = Soundboard win!

Made my morning. :D

[UberNoodleX]

Oh great, so now more horny White guys will come to Taiwan like they own the place.

[backspace971]

I got tons of whore houses around where i live,we call them bars.

[NeilCrouse]

I love Ana's reaction to Cenk's reference to "hand love" right at the end. :)

[SuperSpanishChicken]

DON'T CUM

[eternalcrumpet]

thought they already were legal

[Nielsen700]

CUM.

[59dominic]

Dam i love her titties!!!!

[TheRacistsMustDie]

Dear TYT,

In Europe there are things happening that could lead to a new global economic collapse. How come then that the first foreign news is about Taiwanese prostitution?

Sincerely,

European who's about to be in a world of trouble

[glurp1er]

The subject is stupid but the video made me laugth ;-)

[MaicoMoon]

The sexual puns are awesome. Is he getting a facial or is he giving a facial, lol.

[haroonfunny94]

[iddicted]

whether its legal or not its still goin down

[timoback3000]

Taiwan ftw! But while not as vast we got the samething in the US @ massage parlors and night clubs especially after hour clubs

[BrimHawk]

Instead of the Crumpets, you get the Strumpets.

[emerice]

the gay barber poles spin backwards

[95tahoe1]

The happy ending!!!!

[MisterEvil1]

A Resource Based Economy would make prostitution impossible.

[darthstew666]

Handlove.. i'm going to start using that

[lAgent69l]

@BlintVidz LOL THATS HILARIOUS!

[misterchicitymayne]

@BlintVidz HAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHH

[kirtooroohet]

I love this show and all the TYT people that work there. I wish we could have this on standard cable. : )

[piotrezzz]

LOL LOL LOL ... a clip concerning red light districts got started with an ad for dating.dk . kind of distasteful ;-)

[Amid87]

SUPPLIES!!

[MiLoMac06]

Cenk had way too much fun with this story lol.

[themaypole]

turn on the captions, Cenk cannot be transcribed >.<

[kirtooroohet]

@themaypole Please email them through youtube. this is important and they may not get to see your comment.

[roningarrison]

"If they punish the john, the guy who's coming, then they won't come" I loled

[Bankstercide]

I can answer Ana's last question in this segment - like any good salesperson, whores will establish a clientele, a "book of business". Many of the more discreet establishments act like a "botique" where the prostitutes take their clients with them.

I have seen this happen firsthand in the Finance industry - brokers moving from banks to smaller private broker dealerships.

[TroubadourPariahTV]

"The services we need." lol That's a man with proper perspective.

[Bankstercide]

Another thing about the karaoke booths is that they are used like a low-budget love hotel. They are cheaper, are often open all night and the seperate rooms provide some modicum of privacy.

That last bit is also why internet cafes in asia are NOT regularly used for sexual liasons. However, they are used by homless in the same manner that cars are in the US.

The more you know, yadda yadda yadda...

[Bankstercide]

Another problem with these prostitution laws is that they do not factor in illegal immigration. Generally, the most disadvantaged people sell themselves into prostitution and that includes illegal immigrants.

Unless they have some sort of DADT approach to addressing this in courts, this just becomes another hurdle for prostitutes to jump; all hassle, no protections.

[pWnaniX]

0:53 And more importantly, if they punish the john, the guy who is cuming. Then they wont cum.

[emerice]

@pWnaniX double entendre for the WIN!

[EliteDoomer]

@pWnaniX lololol

[taxiuniversum]

1:42 - Ana is so cute, all in amazement about those weird men, who "need" the services of prostitutes so desperately. LOLS ^^

[rudykaddah]

lol that was funny

[TruthAndMoreTruth]

When in Vegas, if you happen to notice a pretty unaccompanied woman at the bar do NOT MAKE EYE CONTACT!

Well, unless you have some cash in your pocket... LOTS OF CASH!

[domino18717]

as a legit massage therapist i really found this video funny cuz we deal with it allllll the time.

[Uktrayf]

you need to move prostitution into concentrated areas so they can be easily regulated and policed, and kept away from residential areas... how is this not a good idea?

Also, how the fuck is a red light district in a wealthy area profiting the rich? you think it's going to help property values if the area is surrounded by whores?

very disappoint, tyt.

[AnonEyeMouse]

@Uktrayf

Because it will most likely be invisible. Understand, a red light district doesn't have to be filled with street walkers and flashing neon signs. With sufficient start up capital you can hide a brothel in a church and no one but those who use it would know.

In fact, it is likely to push up the prices because it is there, but not visible. There would be no need to advertise, it would be a badge of prestige.

Understand that this already happens, it just isn't legal.

[Guitarvirtuoso666]

getting a facial?

[starliteinfernal]

cenk is such an asshole lol

[Zakdayak]

My guess is this clip won't be airing on CurrentTV...

[Draegun]

"is there any place in Asia that's not secretly a whore house?" - lol

[fr4nC1z]

@Draegun lol its not just Asia i believe its all around the world

[secretbubba3]

Anna needs a facial!

[majorjuxta]

they won't cum?

[fishypaw]

If you want 'it' in a tea shop one must ask for more 'crumpet'.

[CyewWayne]

And yet would you believe that, in Taiwan, adultery is illegal?

[jimisback]

Annas shirt is so 80s.

[kpsimon189]

i am def gettin a tea there lol

[Shinobi3213]

Cenk man.... your wrong lol

[Grnvolpe]

COVER the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal

[werewolf873]

...this has only redoubled my wish to one day go to aisa

[SSJ3Ulcer]

Now legalize da chronic.

[max2082]

We need Red Light Districts in America cut the crap. >:( :3

[pookiewood]

I've missed "Ooooooohhh". LMAO!

[SkullOfYorick]

Warning to anyone visiting Taiwan (or Japan): hot-spring baths are baths, NOT brothels.

[ERAUPRCWA]

Cenk made a cumming joke at the beginning without even realizing his schwang wang

[Yamikaiba123]

I'm starting to thing it's the same 13 people always pressing the dislike button.

[bnz500]

Asian bitches > All other bitches

[rorylol]

@bnz500 maybe if you are an azn or a weeaboo.

[littlehelphere]

Geisishes are not prostutes.

[ChunkyMilkification]

@littlehelphere they are

[littlehelphere]

@ChunkyMilkification Geishe in japeness means artist. they play and instrument, does dancing, singing and conversation. They do not have sex with their clients, hence they are not prostutes.

[12235117657598502586]

God Dam!...Those clever & inscrutable Chinese people (Taiwanese are part of the Chinese race)...They're in a total WIN/WIN on this in two ways....(A) They can get extra tax income & (B) They can regulate (to a certain degree that 'service' industry).....

I wonder if that would work on the drugs industry if they 'taxed' the users?

[MALIRIPPA]

LMAO HAND LOVE FOR THE WIN

[lomirandachile]

too much make up today Ana

[Twiztedgoalie]

Geishas did not sleep with their clients. They were singers/hostesses. It was the "less than Geisha" women that did that.

[loismlsx]

We have las Vegas people so STFU!!

[cne08]

How long will it be before Republicans start making excuses to go to Taiwan?

[dobbsiancant]

skin care or fore-skin care?tea and crumpets or tea-bag and crumpets.barber shops...i got nothing.

[solo13th]

@dobbsiancant get a trim or get some trim. your welcome:)

[deandake]

@dobbsiancant Barber shop = going in for a little trim

[MrMrkeithl]

lol who else laughed their ass off

[underbjorn]

This is a smart tactic from the government to tackle the black market of such services and get some moneys from it as well.

Ofc conditional legalization of previously criminal services isn't something new.

.

I think this should be tried here as well, a sector where clearly society is lacking behind, but without "district" limits.

It will bring revenue to the state, the whores don't need to act in the shadows and risk being beaten black and blue by their Russian pimp and everybody's happy.

[Yvieneify]

Half of those female prostitutes are actually shemales.

[woojet]

Yah that doesn't happen in Seoul...u know for all the fantastic research done by tyt on the political scene however when it comes to what's happening in Asia on topics such as this I'm always surprised on how either unrepresentative or just blatantly twisted it becomes...

[waltermh111]

@woojet What doesnt happen in Seoul, you got me confused and curious.

[strongpimphand]

Cenk: Did you say "oooooooooooh!"

 *Chuckle* "That ain't right!"

Steve didn't speak again....

[sumrblizrd]

I greatly enjoyed all the euphemisms that were dished out during this segment.

[TMOvids]

Barber shops had a sexual undertone here in the UK only a few decades ago. It was a place where only men would go, and they'd frequently be offered "something for the weekend" or condoms and lubricant, which were kept behind the counter.

[coolero80]

"But more importantly...if you punish the 'John' (the guy who's cumming), then they wont cum"

Yeah Cenk, we know...

[SSTTEEAALLTTHH]

Don't legalize it. Decriminalize it.

Legalize implies that the government should have any authority over it, but you should feel lucky they are being kind enough to let you have a go.

Decriminalize implies it's none of their damn business, which is isn't.

[Olawz]

This would have been awesome except that this is the same county that this place has the most cases of women chopping of dudes dicks

[Lorenzo2468]

Are these people that culturally ignorant about Asia?

[waltermh111]

@Lorenzo2468 Its hard not to be when you dont live there lol

I pay alot of attention to asia all my life, but then moved in with korean girl and a chinese girl, and still learned new things.

You just dont know how ignorant you are til you get deep in there, and we dont all have all the time in the world to know about everything there is to know.

In general people that dont love asia culture have no reason to learn about it. They dont exactly do business there.

[LeLimeLine]

Lol, poor Ana can't contain herself.

[R3APER24]

lol Awesome segment

[DackIsBack]

Leaving, On A Jet Plane...

[DoIphZiggler]

Who the fuck cares about Taiwan? Fucking slants.

[DickCheneyXX]

@DoIphZiggler China...

[NothingBut666]

What's wrong with having a lot of Polish people at your barber shop?

[UrbanZ0mbie]

So I could go to Korea, get sex with a haircut and then watch some StarCraft on tv.

Awesome.
