| One is performing, the other is physical interaction with the paying customer. |

Why is one legal and one is not?
In the United States I can't really come up with a good answer other than one is being filmed and one is not. |
The courts consider most pornography to fall under the first amendment, and since the "speech" is the act of sex between the two actors, it cannot be rendered illegal by prostitution laws.
Even if that weren't the case, it seems to me to be faulty logic to conclude that what is being paid for, when pornographic actors and actresses are paid, is the act of sex itself. Rather, the payment is in exchange for the right to film the act as a means to generate revenue -- that is, the sex is in this case a "means to an end" rather than the end itself (as is the case in prostitution.) |

i think its there to protect the hookers themselves.
porn studio is a pretty controled enviornment, and all actors/actresses are tested regularly.
with street secks, anything goes, rates are anywhere and who knows who's spreading what. plus you ight have alot more dead hookers.
then again the agrument could be 'well if it was legal it'd be controlled and what not'
i can't answer that :/ |

| Prostitution isn't illegal in Canada; everything related to it, however, is. |
