										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.dailycognition.com/content/image/predator_l.jpg" target="_blank"><img decoding="async" class="photo_right" border="0" width="250" height="188" src="http://www.dailycognition.com/content/image/predator_l.jpg" alt="The Governator." /></a>The British minister for women and equality, Harriet Harman, has asked The Governator to shut down <a href="http://punternet.com/" target="_blank">Punternet.com</a>, a website that allows men to discuss and rate prostitutes, many of whom are located in the UK. The best part is that her request openly mocks Schwarzenegger.</p>
<p>&#8220;Surely it can&#8217;t be too difficult for &#8216;The Terminator&#8217; to terminate Punternet and that&#8217;s what I am demanding that he does.&#8221; Now if that&#8217;s not diplomacy, I don&#8217;t know what is. Harman made the request of Schwarzenegger because the site is apparently based in California. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s also interesting to note that prostitution is <em>legal</em> in Britain. There are a whole lot of things associated with sex work that is illegal, like soliciting and &#8220;curb crawling,&#8221; but two consenting adults transacting for sex&#8230;no problem. </p>
<p>One of Punternet&#8217;s moderators has put together an open letter to Harman. You can read the <a href="http://www.punternet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22518" target="_blank">letter on their website</a>. </p>
