Is it Actually Legal to Work as an Escort in Texas?
Life is expensive and the idea of selling your time to someone lonesome might sound interesting to you. Once my electric bill was so high, I considered selling pictures of my feet to weirdos on the internet. Something in the back of my mind kept me from doing it, but no judgement to anyone who has. I get it...
Did you know it's perfectly legal in Texas to work as an escort?
An escort is defined as a person who is paid for their time, NOT a person who is paid for sex. It's 100% legal to pay someone to spend time with you, however, if sex is involved in the price, it immediately becomes prostitution, which is still frowned upon and illegal in Texas.
Escort services go to great lengths to word contracts in such a way that they do not involve sex acts, in an effort to protect them from law enforcement, but legal teams are quick to poke hole in them during court proceedings.
So, that being said, you are allowed to hire an escort to be your plus one for a wedding, or even as your date for a fancy business event, etc., BUT, you are not allowed to bang it out! That's when it becomes illegal.
If you're thinking of becoming an escort...keep your hands to yourself and make that money, and if you're thinking of hiring one...well...keep your hands to yourself and SPEND that money...
