引言
Introduction

关于美国合法性交易，始终笼罩着层层谜团，以至于每当这个话题被提及时，好奇心总是不可避免地被激发。对于那些将内华达州合法妓院视为潜在选择的女性而言，这种好奇尤为强烈。然而，许多人之所以犹豫不决，并不是因为她们已明确否定这条道路，而是因为根本找不到任何系统化的信息，让她们了解如果身处其中，究竟会面临怎样的现实。本指南正是为这一群体而写，其目标是建立一个通用的知识基线，帮助女性理解合法妓院的实际运作模式，并且本指南的内容完全独立于《婬荡华夏》，不涉及任何关于该机构的考量。作为已经亲身走过这条路的人，我深知，只有先掌握行业的基础知识，才能真正理解《婬荡华夏》所构建的基础具有何种价值。那么，接下来让我们先从一些基本事实开始，看看当一位女性进入这个奇特的美国合法性交易行业时，她究竟会遇到什么。

There is so much enigma surrounding legal prostitution in the US that curiosity is unavoidable whenever the subject comes up in conversation. This is particularly true for women who are looking at legal brothels in Nevada as a potential option for themselves, but are hesitant simply because there is no curated information anywhere regarding what a woman can expect if she were to put herself in this environment. This is the demographic that I wish to address in the context of this guide, my objective being to establish a generic baseline for how the legal brothel world works at all, independent from all considerations about anything having to do with Erotica Sinica. As someone who has already walked this path, it is only after one can establish this type of baseline knowledge that the value-add of Erotica Sinica's infrastructure can even begin to make any sense. With that being said, let's establish some basic facts about what a woman will find upon entering the bizarre world of legal prostitution in the United States.

​

关于内华达州合法妓院
About the Legal Nevada Brothels

内华达州是美国唯一允许合法妓院运营的州。这一点直接涉及到美国法律体系的架构，因此对于那些不熟悉美国法律体系的非美国公民来说，这一事实本身就值得关注。 具体而言，《美国宪法》第十修正案规定：

​​

“宪法未授予联邦政府的权力，亦未禁止各州行使的权力，均由各州或人民自行保留。”

​

这一规定在实践中的意义是，凡是宪法中未明确提及的监管事务，均由各州自行立法决定。由于美国有五十个州，这意味着在涉及诸如酒精消费、博彩，以及本指南中最关注的性交易等事项时，理论上各州可以订立50种不同的规定，因为美国宪法对此完全未作规定。

The state of Nevada is home to the only legal brothels in the entirety of the United States. Because this is a fact that directly touches upon the very architecture of the American legal system, it is intrinsically worth noting, particularly for non-US citizens who are unfamiliar with this country's framework.

​

Specifically, the 10th Amendment to the United States Constitution provides:

​​

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

​

What this means in practice is that any regulatory issue that is not expressly mentioned in the national constitution is automatically the purview of each individual state to decide their own legislation. Because there are fifty states, it is technically possible to have fifty completely different sets of laws governing things like alcohol consumption, gambling, and—most pertinent to this discussion—prostitution, because these are all things about which the national constitution is completely silent.

​

由于其独特的历史背景，内华达州在加入联邦时，便形成了一种极度强调个体选择自由的文化。最典型的例子便是博彩业——在 20 世纪的大部分时间里，内华达州是美国唯一合法赌博的州（新泽西州直到1977 年才合法化赌博，但仅限于大西洋城；印第安保留区的赌场直到1988 年《印第安博彩监管法案》颁布后，才开始真正兴起）。与此类似，内华达州于 1971 年正式将妓院合法化，但事实上，自 19 世纪以来，性交易在该州便已相当普遍，以满足遍布全州的金矿与银矿工人的需求。

Due to the historical circumstances in which it entered the union, the state of Nevada has culturally been a place that hyper-prioritized freedom of individual choice. Case in point, this is why, for the majority of the 20th century, Nevada was the only viable option for gambling in the United States (New Jersey would legalize gambling in 1977, but restrict it to Atlantic City only, and casinos on the Indian reservations would not take off until the passing of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act in 1988). Similarly, Nevada officially legalized brothels in 1971, but houses of prostitution have been pervasive since the 19th century to accommodate the men working in the gold and silver mines all across the state.

​

然而，需要特别注意的是，内华达州对性交易的合法化附加了两项极为严格的限制条件：1）性交易仅可在持牌妓院内进行；2）持牌妓院只能设立在居民人口少于 70 万的县内。在 1980 年代，内华达州曾有大约 35 家 持牌妓院，而截至今日，这一数字已减少至不足 20 家。在这些妓院中，只有 3 家位于距离拉斯维加斯都会区较近的范围内，它们均位于奈县，分别是：《外星人妓院》，《草鸡妓院》，《谢瑞女士的妓院》。此外，奈县法律要求应聘陪侍者必须年满 21 岁，但该州北部部分地区（如：里昂县）的一些妓院接受年满 18 岁的女性申请。

It is important to note, however, that Nevada's legalization of prostitution came with two very stringent conditions: 1) purchasing sex is only permissible at a licensed brothel; and 2) licensed brothels can only do business in counties with a resident population below 700,000. Nevada used to have around thirty-five brothels in the 1980s, but as of today, that number has dropped to fewer than twenty. Of those, only three are within reasonable driving distance to the Las Vegas Metropolitan area, all of which are in Nye County. They are: Alien Cathouse, Chicken Ranch, and Sheri's Ranch. Nye County legislation further requires one to be at least 21 years old to work as a courtesan, but some of the brothels in the northern part of the state (in places like Lyon county) do accept applications for females who are at least 18 years old.

​

截至撰写本文时，我本人已在《外星人妓院》工作了三年，但尚未在其他妓院工作过。然而，我确实曾与在多个妓院工作过的女性共事，并且在2022 年，我曾在 《谢瑞女士的妓院》预约享受性服务。在那次经历中，我与该妓院的一名性工作者进行了深入交流，探讨了她在《谢瑞女士的妓院》的工作情况，并在她的带领下参观了整个场所。至于《草鸡妓院》，我的了解相对有限——迄今为止，我仅曾驱车经过其停车场，并从外部观察其设施。尽管如此，我仍会尽可能详细介绍奈县各家妓院的情况。

At the time of this writing, I personally have been working at Alien Cathouse for the last three years, and have yet to work at any of the other brothels. However, I have indeed done business alongside ladies who worked at multiple locations in the past, and I booked a session to receive sexual services from a prostitute at Sheri's Ranch back in 2022, where I extensively spoke with her about the nature of her work at Sheri's Ranch, and toured the premises with her. As far as my experience with Chicken Ranch goes, I have only driven through the parking lot and viewed their facilities from the outside, but I intend to provide details about each Nye County brothel as best I can.

​

《外星人妓院》位于95 号公路与 373 号公路交汇处，距离拉斯维加斯大道上的《凯撒宫》约 90 英里（≈145 公里），向西北方向行驶可到达。这里的客户群体十分多样化，涵盖各行各业的男性，包括蓝领行业（如：卡车运输、矿业、油田钻探等）以及白领行业（如：会计、电影、科技等领域的等专业人士）。由于《毗邻红岩峡谷国家保护区》和《死亡谷国家公园》，许多顾客是国际旅客或热衷户外活动的人，他们喜欢徒步、山地自行车、攀岩、户外摄影和露营等运动。作为该地区最小的妓院，《外星人妓院》最多可同时容纳八名女性工作者，所以这里的氛围相对轻松，运营模式也有所不同，意思是说激励机制鼓励每位女性帮助客户选择最适合自己的人选，而不是不择手段争夺客户。在行业内部，我们称后者的行为为“肮脏推销”（英文："dirty hustling"），但在《外星人妓院》，这种竞争模式并不存在。《外星人妓院》的规模和布局，使其更像是一个温馨的家，而非酒店或商业场所。其拥有一个公共区域，设有一个酒吧式会客厅，供客户放松交流，还有洗浴设施，包含大淋浴间，专为卡车司机（或多人团体）使用，备有按摩室，提供按摩服务的专门区域，以及套房，可供预约过夜服务。女性工作者的配套设施包括大型厨房（每天提供至少一顿家庭式餐点，并可自由使用食品和厨房设备），一个配有桑拿房和美黑床的健身房，一个洗衣房，一个小型摄影棚（可用于拍摄色情内容）以及宽敞的多间卧室，其中大部分配备特大号床，并设有按摩浴缸（带漩涡喷射功能）。

Alien Cathouse is located at the intersection between Highway 95 and Highway 373, which is roughly 90 miles (i.e., ≈145 kilometers) northwest of Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip. There exists a huge variety of clients—men from blue-collar industries (like trucking, mining, oilfield drilling, etc.) to white-collar industries (like accounting, film, technology, etc.). Due to its proximity to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area and Death Valley National Park, many customers are international travelers or active outdoorsmen who enjoy hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, outdoor photography and/or camping. Because Alien Cathouse is the smallest brothel in the area, housing up to eight women at a time, the environment at this particular establishment is relaxed and operates in such a way that each woman is economically incentivized to encourage incoming customers to choose the prostitute he would like best, rather than each woman engaging in whichever behavior is necessary to try and seduce the client for herself (in the business, we call these types of behaviors "dirty hustling"). Alien Cathouse, due to its size and layout, feels like a cozy home rather than a hotel or a commercial property. It has a parlor area bar for the clients as well as a large shower for truckers (or large group sessions), a massage room, and suites to book overnight sessions. For the working women, there is a large kitchen (ladies receive at least one home-cooked meal per day and have open access to food and appliances), a gym with a sauna and tanning bed, a laundry room, a small studio (for shooting pornographic content) and bedrooms that are quite large—most of them with a king size bed as well as a bathtub with jacuzzi jets.

​

《草鸡妓院》和《谢瑞女士的妓院》彼此相邻，均位于内华达州帕伦普镇，距离拉斯维加斯大道上的《凯撒宫》约 60 英里（≈97 公里）正西方向。这两家妓院的设施和布局相似，均包括酒吧区、主题性癖房间（如：地牢、胸推按摩房、偷窥室等）、可供过夜或周末住宿的套房、游泳池和按摩浴缸区域、洗衣房、厨房（其中《谢瑞女士的妓院》的酒吧兼作餐厅）、健身房以及女性工作者的卧室。《谢瑞女士的妓院》通常同时接待约 20 名性工作者，而《草鸡妓院》相对较小，一般有约 13 名性工作者在职。

Chicken Ranch and Sheri's Ranch are directly adjacent to one another in Pahrump, Nevada, which is approximately 60 miles (i.e., ≈97 kilometers) due west of Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip. Both of these brothels have similar accommodations, with a bar area, themed fetish rooms (like a dungeon, a nuru massage room, a voyeur room, etc.), suites to accommodate overnight or weekend stays, a pool and jacuzzi area, a laundry room, a kitchen (Sheri's bar also doubles as a restaurant), as well as a gym and bedrooms for the working girls. Sheri's Ranch typically has around twenty prostitutes in-house at any given time, while Chicken Ranch tends to have around thirteen.

​

这些妓院之间最大的区别主要体现在规模和管理风格上，当然，这些风格可能会随着管理层的更迭而发生变化。《外星人妓院》以氛围最轻松而闻名，而《谢瑞女士的妓院》则以对陪侍执照持有者的管理更为严格而著称，这很可能与其庞大的设施规模有关。《谢瑞女士的妓院》和《草鸡妓院》整体上更接近大学姐妹会（英文："sorority house"）的社交氛围，而《外星人妓院》则更像是与几位女性室友共同生活。至于妓院内女性工作者的行为表现，就我个人的经历而言，整体相处体验非常乐观。如果您正在考虑申请其中一家妓院工作，我建议选择管理风格最符合您个人偏好的地方。

The biggest difference between these brothels would be their sizes as well as their management styles, which, of course, can change when management changes. Alien Cathouse has a reputation of being the most relaxed, while Sheri's Ranch has a reputation for being managerially stricter with the Courtesan License holders under its roof—most likely due to the sheer size of the facility itself. Sheri's Ranch and Chicken Ranch do seem to have more of an overtly sorority house feeling, whereas Alien Cathouse is more comparable to living with a few female roommates. Regarding the behavior of the women working in the brothels, my own experience interacting with these individuals has been overwhelmingly positive, and if you are considering working at one of these brothels, I recommend applying for the one that stylistically seems like the best fit for your preferences.

​

定价与客流量
Pricing and Foot Traffic

在这点上，有好消息，也有坏消息。

At this point, there is some good news and bad news.

​

好消息是，在内华达州合法妓院工作的性工作者持有陪侍执照，因此可以收取溢价，因为客户不仅是在购买性服务，同时也在购买合法性——在这里，他们完全不必担心因嫖娼而被逮捕；此外，他们也在购买安全保障，因为每位女性 A）必须接受每周强制性传播感染（英文："sexually transmitted infections"，简称："STI"）检测，B）法律规定必须使用安全套。由于内华达州是全美唯一允许合法性交易的州，且靠近拉斯维加斯的妓院仅有三家，供需法则使得持有陪侍执照的女性可以收取比独立伴游更高的费用——与在常见伴游网站上非法宣传的拉斯维加斯性工作者相比，妓院内的定价至少是其两倍。这使得持有陪侍执照的女性能够最大化时间收益比，并且在短短数小时内即可实现五位数的收入潜力。

The good news about working in the legal Nevada brothels is that Courtesan License holders are able to charge a premium rate because clients are not only purchasing sex, they are also purchasing the ability to do so legally—with zero chance of being arrested for soliciting prostitution—and safely—knowing that each woman A) receives weekly mandated STI testing, and B) is legally required to use condoms. Because Nevada is the only place where this can occur in the entire United States, and there are only three brothels in proximity to Las Vegas, the economic laws of supply and demand enable Courtesan License holders to charge a higher price point than their independent escort counterparts—with pricing that is at least double that of Las Vegas prostitutes who advertise their illicit services on common escort listing websites. This allows a woman with a Courtesan License to maximize her time-to-income ratio, with the potential to make five figures in a matter of hours.

​

坏消息则在于，依赖自然客流量并不是一个长期可行的策略。在所有妓院中，女性工作者最大的共同抱怨就是客流量长期不足，以及广告宣传受法律限制所带来的问题。由于法规规定，持有陪侍执照的女性只能作为独立承包人（英文："independent contractor"）工作，而不能被雇佣为正式员工，这意味着她们必须自行处理所有市场推广相关事务。这正是我本人选择与 《婬荡华夏》 合作的原因，同时也是为何如今一些持有陪侍执照的女性开始尝试经营社交媒体和 OnlyFans 账户，或进入色情电影行业发展。但请务必清楚一点——即使完全不做市场推广，依然能够赚到相当可观的收入，只是如果单纯依赖自然客流量，工作强度会大幅增加（即：效率较低）。

The bad news, unfortunately, is that reliance on foot traffic is not tenable across time. The biggest complaint among women in all the brothels is the pervasive and enduring lack of foot traffic and the issues that come with the legal restrictions put on advertising. Due to legislative regulations, the legal sex work environment requires a Courtesan License holder (who can only work as an independent contractor and never as an employee) to handle all marketing questions and needs on her own. This is exactly why I myself chose to work with Erotica Sinica, and why some Courtesan License holders are now attempting to grow social media accounts and OnlyFans accounts, or are starting to work in the porn industry. Make no mistake—there is still quite a bit of money to be made even without any marketing, but it is far more work-intensive (i.e., inefficient) to try to rely on foot traffic alone.

​

妓院的销售模式更类似于汽车销售或房地产销售，而不是零售店铺的销售模式。与其说是不断有男性进进出出（双关语纯属巧合），大多数人以较低的价格频繁购买多个商品，不如说每周只进行少量高价交易，最终在收益上达到平衡。这意味着，在妓院工作的大部分时间，要么是在与不会购买服务的顾客互动，要么是独自安排自己的时间。这往往是导致大多数女性在妓院工作的结果出现两种情况的原因：A）第一周内便离开，或者B）工作两周后不再返回进行下一轮的工作。这项工作需要耐心，同时也要求从业者具备在孤立环境下管理自己时间的能力。

Sales at a brothel are more akin to car sales or real estate sales rather than sales at a retail store. Rather than having men constantly in and out (all puns intended) with most of them purchasing multiple items at a low price point, a select few sales are made per week, but at very high price points, which ultimately evens out. This means that the majority of the time in a brothel will be spent either interacting with customers who will not be purchasing services or managing one's own time to oneself. This is often the reason why the majority of women who do show up to work in the brothels either A) leave within the first week, or B) stay for two weeks but do not return for a second tour. This work requires patience and the ability to manage one's time alone, often in isolation.

​

检测与执照办理
Testing & Licensure

根据奈县陪侍执照的要求，申请人必须先接受性传播感染和性病检测，其中包括：艾滋病和梅毒的血液检测，以及衣原体和淋病的子宫颈拭子检测。通常，这些检测由巡回护士（英文："travel nurse"）在妓院内完成，但申请人也可以选择前往拉斯维加斯的专业性传播感染检测诊所，该诊所专门为性行业从业者（包括妓女和色情演员）提供检测服务。除了性传播感染检测外，奈县还会进行联邦背景调查、采集指纹，并拍摄头像照片，以用于陪侍执照的印制。获得执照后，性工作者需将其直接交给所在妓院，由管理层保管，以备季度性的警长检查，因为在检查期间，警长办公室的执法人员会不定期突击检查妓院，确保所有在岗女性均持有合法执照。

As a requirement for the Nye County Courtesan License, one must first receive testing for sexually transmitted infections and diseases—specifically, a blood test for HIV and syphilis, and an endo-cervical swab for chlamydia and gonorrhea. A travel nurse typically does this testing in-house, but one can also go to a testing clinic in Las Vegas that specializes in STI testing for sex workers, including prostitutes and pornstars alike. Along with these test results, Nye County will also conduct a federal background check, collect fingerprints, and take a picture of one's headshot to be printed on the Courtesan License. The working girl will then deliver her license directly to her brothel, where management will retain it on file in the event that there is a quarterly sheriff inspection, where officers from the sheriff's office will arrive unannounced to the brothel to ensure all women who are working there are licensed.

​

独立承包人
Independent Contractors

在内华达州合法妓院工作的每位性工作者都是独立承包人，这意味着她是自雇人士，可以根据自己的意愿管理业务，包括自行安排工作时间、设定价格和提供的服务，并且有权因任何理由拒绝提供服务。她与妓院的合作模式类似于租赁关系（就像现代美容师在美发沙龙租赁座位一样），即：支付一定费用租用工作空间，同时必须遵守性交易广告法规（例如：不得在妓院房间外公开价格信息），以及妓院的内部规定（例如：如果离开妓院超过规定时间，必须重新进行性传播感染检测后方可复工）。因此，持有陪侍执照的女性需要自行负责采购所需物品，在年终向美国国税局（英文："Internal Revenue Service"，简称："IRS"）申报并缴纳税款，并与妓院管理层协调个人工作日程。

Each legal Nevada brothel sex worker is an independent contractor, meaning that she is self-employed and dictates her business as she sees fit, determining her own schedule, pricing, and services—with the ability to refuse service to anyone for any reason. Her arrangement with the brothel is like a lease (similar to how modern cosmetologists rent a chair in a beauty salon) where she agrees to pay a fee to rent the space and abide by prostitution advertisement laws (i.e., do not share your pricing outside of your room at the brothel) as well as the house rules (i.e., if you leave the brothel for more than a specified amount of time, you must redo STI testing before returning to work). The Courtesan License holder is therefore responsible for procuring her own supplies, filing and paying her own taxes to the IRS at the end of the year, and coordinating with brothel management to set her schedule.

​

服务菜单
Menu

性工作者提供的服务清单（即：“性服务菜单”）应由以下因素决定：1）自身乐意提供的项目；2）希望进行这些活动的时长；3）愿意以何种价格提供这些服务（取决于具体的客户）。有些女性会准备书面菜单，而另一些则倾向于直接与客户交流，因为对许多人而言，价格可能会因对方是谁而有所浮动。有些女性的菜单非常丰富，涵盖从感官体验、三人行到SM及各种性癖活动，而另一些则仅提供“普通”一对一性爱和按摩。关键在于，法律禁止妓院介入陪侍执照持有者的性服务范围及定价，这在多个层面上是有利的，但同时也意味着性工作者本人必须完全负责对自己的商业策略和销售技巧负责，因为妓院不会在这方面提供任何实质性的指导或帮助。

The list of services one provides (i.e., "sex menu") ought to be determined by 1) what one enjoys doing; 2) how long one would like to do those activities; and 3) how much money one is willing to do these activities for, with any given person. Some women have a written menu while others see fit to simply have a conversation, often because, for many individuals, pricing will fluctuate depending on who is sitting across from her. Some women have extensive menus, including just about everything from sensual experiences and threesomes to BDSM and fetish activities—while other women may only offer "vanilla" one-on-one sex and massages. The key point here is that the law forbids the brothel from having any involvement in determining what a Courtesan License holder does sexually and for how much she does it, which is indeed beneficial on many levels, but also simultaneously requires the sex worker to know exactly what to do in terms of business strategy and sales, because she will not receive any actionable assistance or direction from the establishment itself.

​

客户
Clients

典型的客户通常礼貌而友善——他们前来是为了享受自己与一位充满性渴望的女性共度的时光。尽管大多数客户的互动体验都令人愉快，但确实存在少数客户可能在行为、期望、个人卫生、性攻击倾向或心理状态方面存在问题。大多数情况下，这些问题可以通过简单的引导、让对方先去洗澡，或明确设定语言界限来缓解。然而，有时仍然可能遇到存在某种危险的潜在客户，无论是身体上的危险，还是心理上的不适（例如：“作为性工作者，我不想留下这段记忆”）。在这种情况下，持有陪侍执照的女性有两个很重要的应对工具。第一，设定一个能让身体或心理风险“值得”的价格，同时采取措施降低受伤的可能性（例如要求经理定期查看等）。第二，直接拒绝提供服务。无论如何，在任何情况下，如果客户的行为过于恶劣，性工作者都可以随时终止服务，且不予退款。根据我的经验，设定相对较高的价格往往可以有效筛选出这类不良客户，因为在我听到的案例中，大多数关于“问题客户”的投诉都来自那些以异常低价提供服务的女性。

The typical client is respectful and kind—he is there to enjoy himself and his time with a sexually eager woman. Though most clients are quite pleasant to interact with, there do exist rare clients who will have problematic behavior, expectations, hygiene, sexual aggression, and/or mental problems. One can ameliorate most of these problems by simple redirection, a shower, or strict verbal boundary-setting. However, sometimes there will be a potential client who poses some sort of danger, whether that be a physical danger or a psychological one (i.e., "I, the prostitute, do not want to carry this memory"). Courtesan License holders in this type of situation have two very important tools at their disposal. The first is to set a price that makes the risk of physical or psychological danger worth it, while taking steps to decrease the chance of injury (examples include asking the manager to check in at certain intervals, etc.). The second is simply to refuse service. Regardless, one can always terminate a session at any point without a refund if a client is behaving egregiously. In my experience, setting a reasonably higher price point vets out these types of misbehaviors, as the majority of complaints I have heard about problematic clients came from women who booked their session at strangely low prices.

​

其他性行业的工作
Other Sex Work

潜在的陪侍执照持有者可能会考虑（或已经从事）其他形式的性工作，例如脱衣舞、色情片拍摄或独立伴游。任何既对性工作感兴趣，又希望最大化时间收益比的女性，在合法妓院工作都将获得最显著的收益。即使是完全匿名、不做任何市场推广、仅依赖自然客流量的陪侍执照持有者，在妓院的常规工作期间，也能在短短数小时内轻松赚取四位数甚至五位数的收入，从而使她可以在其余时间自由支配，专注于自己真正想做的事情。

A potential Courtesan License holder might consider (or is already involved in) other forms of sex work, such as stripping, pornography, or independent escorting. Any female is interested in both sex work and maximizing her time-to-income ratio is going to benefit, by far, the most by working in the legal brothels. Even the anonymous Courtesan License holder, who relies solely upon foot traffic and makes zero efforts in marketing herself, is going to discover that she can make four or five figures in a matter of hours during a generic sojourn at the brothel, which means she can spend the rest of her days working on what she desires while on the premises.

​

确切而言，脱衣舞确实可以带来可观收入，尤其是对于年轻且具有吸引力的女性而言，若她额外提供性服务（视地点而定，可能面临刑事指控），收入潜力更高。然而，其时间收益比极为不平衡。尽管她可能在一个周末赚取四位数收入，但这需要她连续工作数小时，消耗大量体力，包括与客户互动（其中不乏醉酒且喧闹者）、跳舞、穿高跟鞋长时间行走，并且通常身处一个高度竞争的环境，与许多同样美丽的女性竞争，而她们之间往往缺乏合作激励。能够找到一个所有女性彼此协作、相互帮助的脱衣舞俱乐部，确实是极为幸运的事。不可否认，这样的地方确实存在，但数量极其稀少。在内华达州的合法妓院中，也存在类似的竞争环境，但相比之下，更容易找到合作氛围良好的妓院，而不是尔虞我诈的场所。

To be sure, stripping can be quite lucrative, especially for a young attractive woman who also offers sexual services on the side (running the risk of criminal charges depending on location), but the time-to-income ratio is severely unbalanced. Though she may be able to bring in four figures per weekend, she is working hours upon hours, expending copious amounts of physical energy interacting with customers (who can be drunk and rowdy), dancing, walking in heels, and often in a highly competitive environment with many other beautiful women who are not incentivized to work together. Lucky indeed is the stripper who finds a workplace where all of the women are working together and helping one another. Admittedly, these places do exist, but they are incredibly rare. This type of competition can also be found in the legal brothels in Nevada, but it is much easier to find a brothel where the environment is cooperative rather than cut-throat.

​

另一方面，拍摄色情影片同样可能带来可观收入，但与妓院工作相比，其时间收益比依然极度不平衡。 如果选择开设 OnlyFans 账户，并且能够成功积累一定的粉丝群体，很快就会发现，这项事业需要持续大量投入，包括不断策划、拍摄和剪辑刺激性内容，以及持续与订阅者互动，以维持关注度和订阅收入。如果按照色情行业的传统模式，女性选择签约专业经纪公司，那么她将进入一个竞争极为激烈的环境，并且除非她已经是知名人物，否则她的每小时收入往往远低于在妓院工作的收入。不仅如此，她在拍摄时，除了要进行性行为，还必须在镜头前表演，同时完成“妓女”（尽管技术上并非如此）和“演员”角色的扮演。或许，对于某些女性而言，与剧组合作拍摄色情影片，比直接与客户互动并提供性服务更轻松，但我个人并不认同这种观点。

Alternatively, filming pornography can also be quite lucrative, but the time-to-income ratio is also severely unbalanced when compared to brothel work. If one decides to start an OnlyFans page, and is actually able to build a decent following for oneself, one will quickly discover that such an enterprise requires an enormous amount of upkeep in terms of continuing to design, film, and edit titilating content as well as constantly interacting with subscribers. If, as is traditionally done in the porn industry, a woman decides to take the route of working with a professional agency, she will find herself in a highly competitive environment which pays her (unless she is already a celebrity) less per hour than what she would earn in a brothel. Furthermore, she is not only exerting physical labor by having sex, she is also having to do so while being filmed, fulfilling the role of "prostitute" (though not technically) as well as actress. Perhaps, for some women, filming pornography and interacting with a crew feels less labor intensive than having sex and interacting with a client, but I am personally not one of those women.

​

在所有性工作类别中，独立伴游与妓院工作的性质最为接近，并且确实具备一些优势，其中最显著的一点是可以“自由”在线公布具体的定价。然而，在美国，独立伴游始终伴随着因地区差异而不同的法律风险。归根结底，唯一完全合法、合规的性交易方式，依然是在内华达州的持牌妓院内进行。此外，妓院提供了许多开展性交易业务所需的基础设施，例如：筛选客户、接听电话咨询和处理定金、提供服务房间、设立会客区域（如：酒吧）供客户洽谈、提供安保人员，以及在必要时报警驱逐（甚至永久禁止）不守规矩或危险的个体。正如前文所述，持有陪侍执照的女性还能够借助当前市场上的低竞争环境，以及合法性交易的额外优势，收取更高的价格。

Independent escorting is the subcategory of sex work that is by far the closest in nature to brothel work, and does indeed have a few advantages over brothel work, the most notable of which is the ability to "freely" disclose specific pricing online. However, independent escorting in the United States invariably comes with legal risks that vary depending on location. Ultimately, the only fully legal, above-board manner of offering prostitution is in the licensed brothels of Nevada. Furthermore, brothels take care of much of the infrastructure necessary to run a prostitution business, such as vetting clients, taking phone call inquiries and deposits, providing a room to offer sexual services, offering a common public space (i.e., a bar) to meet clients, providing security personnel, as well as the ability to call the police to escort (and even legally ban) unruly and/or dangerous individuals from the premises. As previously stated, Courtesan License holders can also extract a higher price point due to the current lack of competition and the added benefits that come with booking fully vetted and legal prostitution services.

申请流程
Applications

希望在妓院工作的女性需要访问目标妓院的网站并提交申请。通常，妓院的管理人员会与申请者电话联系，安排电话、视频或现场面试。如果面试顺利通过，妓院管理层将收集申请者的信息，用于创建在线个人资料，并设置专属电子邮件，同时协调她们的首次驻场工作日程（大多数妓院要求至少工作两周，部分妓院则不允许女性工作超过两周）。此外，如有需要，管理层还会协助安排交通。
Women who desire to work in the brothels visit the website of the brothel of their choosing and submit an application. Typically, a manager will call them to book a phone, video, or in-person interview, and if that is successful, brothel management will collect their information for their online profile, set up an email for them, coordinate a schedule for their first tour (most brothels require at least two weeks and some do not allow women to work for more than two weeks), as well as make arrangements for transportation if necessary.

如果在阅读完上述内容后，您已经准备好迈出这一步，但不希望独自进入妓院工作，我强烈建议您了解一下《婬荡华夏》佳丽培训项目：预选计划。对于有意加入正式的《婬荡华夏》佳丽培训项目的优秀的女性（21 岁及以上），我将亲自进行支持和辅导。该项目有助于解决市场推广难题（即：初期难以找到客户）以及可持续发展难题（即：难以维持长期客户），这两个问题在前文已有详细讨论。

Alternatively, if, after reading all of this, you are ready to take the proverbial plunge, but do not wish to start working in the brothels alone, I highly recommend checking out the Erotica Sinica Starlet Training Program: Preparatory Apprenticeship. I personally am offering to mentor highly qualified women (21 years of age or older) who are interested in joining the formal Erotica Sinica Starlet Training Program, which offers the potential to solve the marketing problem (i.e., difficulty finding initial clients) and the sustainability problem (i.e., difficulty retaining clients), both of which were outlined above.
