Not much talk on this, however from what I've gathered and researched, it would either be Portland, San Francisco (the parades say it all) and NYC.

I’d add Las Vegas, LA and Austin into the mix.



I would say LA is pretty liberal from my experience. The men there would do practically anything with two legs and a vagina. Sf is pretty liberal from a political and labor standpoint in the sex work world. There is the Lusty Lady, which failed but was a good try in what some may perceive as the right direction. As much as Offerel Theater may not be a favorite on here, I greatly admire their pushing the envelope so to speak. One instance was their notable lawsuit against low-level criminals videotaping the porn they would show in their theater room. They won the lawsuit and it set the precedent for porn being considered copyrighted work and therefore not a free for all. There are a few notable sex work organizations with home bases in sf as well. Also, wasnt that the city from which the free love movement arose? Nyc being sexually liberal is also a given, I think, where anything goes just like la. Nevada is pretty liberal with all its strip clubs, brothels and number of escorts but not in a progressive sense because sex workers are still controlled by the male majority in power. As far as control over sex workers, I think nyc ranks right up with Nevada in terms of the white men in power constantly breathing down our necks. I think that as cities gentrify and "clean up", they can still be liberal for the average lay man or woman but necessarily the same haven for women "in the industry", however. This is just my input of the cities with which Im familiar. Some of the others mentioned, Im not.

I'm also adding Ibiza, Spain, Amsterdam in the Netherlands, Germany, and Tel Aviv, Israel. I'm actually surprised many other countries aren't as liberal as I once thought they were.

Really? Just curious why you wrote that. A change in politics or something? When I was there back in 2011 it was too wild for me. It might not be considered hot. But extremely liberal. Or, have changes happened? NY used to be a happening city. That's long gone. I would say liberal politically. But not so liberal when it comes to sex or drugs. LA and San Fran liberal. And Austin.

I wouldn't say LA is liberal,... Anymore, due to their stupid laws now affecting porn, camming, etc.
That being said, it IS the most aggressive when it comes to how men hunt women for sex.
It turned me off when I lived there.
So disgusting.
God, I miss that.
Lol!



You all are amateurs...lol. It's Pattaya Thailand.



western Washington ( seattle, tacoma, places on the peninsula like port townsend or port angeles, bellingham etc ) and just politically in the US WA is one of the furthest left and progressive states in the country legality wise... though EASTERN WA like spokane ( which isnt too bad comparatively, tri-cities, pullman etc is more conservative with alot of bleed over from northern idaho and western Montana...so the population itself isnt as consistently open or layed back as it is on the coast

I think that one's answer to this completely depends upon how one defines "sexually open/liberal."
If you are talking about regular ol' heterosexual sex, I don't think it matters where you are almost anywhere in the country, except perhaps small rural areas. I've lived in a few different states and traveled in most of the others and I never got the sense that any of these places was particularly weird or closed off about sex. Grown adults over a certain age are going to have sex regardless of where they live.
If you are talking about homosexual sex, then I would tend to agree that more liberal areas (west coast, northeast) are more open to those topics. That's obviously not to say that same gender sex isn't happening all over the country, but there are definitely chunks of the country that are more accepting of addressing it openly than others.
If you are talking about adult entertainment, then IMHO it becomes much more murky. Extremely liberal states, like CA and MA, are often as antagonistic towards escorts and strip clubs as deep red states like Arkansas and Missouri. The extremists on either side of the aisle (so-called feminists on the left and evangelicals on the right) both hate adult entertainment, even if for dramatically different reasons. MA hasn't seen a new strip club open in 20 years and CA has been leading the charge against BP for many years. At least from a strip club standpoint, states with a high concentration of clubs per capita seem to be those that are more laid back and where extremists from either side do not have a heavy influence over policy, like OR, TX and FL to name a few.
Anyway, experiences and opinions will differ obviously, but this is just myfwiw based upon my own experiences.





If by liberal you mean depressing and seedy. It's an overserved tourism area and the people just don't seem to like tourists. Maybe they liked you, but people who head to the redlight district are in for a shock.
I haven't heard good things lately. Never been in person though.

I feel like where I am in D.C. is ..... and definitely NYC, LA, Vegas, San Fran.
Denver maybe?

Montreal seemed like a petty sexually open/liberal city last time I was there.



people are saying nyc and someone said maybe nyc in the 60's lol. i will go with nyc, but gentrification has clashed its known "gritty reputation"









I'm born and bread NYC native for generations. Since the early 1800's. I hate it now. The best cities have a struggling or burgeoning art scene. And a happening food scene,etc. NYC's hey day was like in the 1920's. With prohibition, dancing and jazz. Then in the 1960's with Andy Warhol. A great party and club scene in the 80's. Now like most big, boring ,expensive cities , it seriously blows.

The Death of a Once Great City
The fall of New York and the urban crisis of affluence
What's ironic is, even those of us who have some amount of financial stability are sick of it. I want to actually live in my apartment, not hoard it. So many great restaurants and unique stores closing down.
