NY Post: They’re not hookers — they just look as if they could be! A dozen scantily clad women rallied outside City Hall yesterday, decrying a bill they say prevents beauties wearing skimpy clothes from getting a fair shot at hailing a yellow cab. The proposal, which will soon get Mayor Bloomberg’s signature, slaps stiff penalties on cabbies who ferry prostitutes and get a cut of the cash.

But yesterday’s collection of bartenders and shot girls said that hacks will now be scared to pick up any woman wearing a short skirt or spiked heels — and noted that sometimes, even legitimately employed women have to flaunt it to make a living. “They don’t even know who is a prostitute or not!” said Diana Estrada, 27, a Sofrito bartender wearing a cleavage-baring spaghetti-strap dress. “You don’t have a shirt on that tells if you’re a prostitute or not.” She frequently takes cabs home to Astoria after leaving late shifts, and she’s concerned taxi drivers will pass her by, since she wears short-shorts or miniskirts.

Currently, the city’s Taxi & Limousine Commission has the authority to strip drivers of their licenses if they knowingly partake in sex trafficking. But the new bill — which the City Council unanimously passed Wednesday — would require the TLC to both strip a driver’s license and slap them with a $10,000 penalty if he’s previously been convicted of sex trafficking. On a first offense, a driver goes to a city hearing, where his license could be revoked. The proposal could make cops more willing to arrest drivers who are innocent, said taxi-union boss Fernando Mateo. “I will challenge any one of you to tell me which one of [these women] you would consider to be a prostitute,” he said yesterday. “They’re all sexy.”

I for one, am all for prostitution. I have never been a patron, but if two consenting adults want to exchange sex for money who the fuck cares? They aren’t hurting anyone. And the same basically goes for your everyday average slut. The everyday average slut likes to show off her goods in skimpy clothing to try to attract male attention in order to hopefully pick out the kind of guy they want. I LOVE sluts! The world need sluts! But seriously, if this law goes into effect in NYC, what are sluts going to do to get home? Crowd the very safe subways? Take a bus? WTF? This isn’t like the suburbs where everyone has a car. No taxi will ever stop to pick up ANY good looking woman just getting out of a nightclub, because let’s face it, they all look like prostitutes. And god bless them!

Anyone in the NY area who thinks the world is better with more sluts, not less, you’d better see what you can do to stop this from going into effect. Otherwise NYC clubs will start to be filled with women wearing turtlenecks and god knows we don’t want that shit!
