A recent article in Playboy pays homage to the legal brothels scattered throughout Nevada. There are 30 licensed in the state, according to the Centers for Disease Control, and they dot counties with populations under 400,000, per state law. But a major reason that people show up at the brothels—all of which can only have 50 employees or less—isn’t for sex, Playboy reports. Many merely want companionship with no strings attached.
“Most people are too concerned with their partner judging and leaving them. Married couples die every day never truly understanding the person they spent their lives with, and never knowing the types of raw uncut truths that we will get,” Playboy quotes one employee posting in an online forum. “Sex is a perk, the true art of our jobs is all in the mind and the soul.”
