Nope. We're actually a fairly reactionary city that's highly segregated and has the biggest wealth gap between rich and poor in the US. We also kill black human beings as shockingly and for no reason as any third-world Hillbilly Heroin Hole in this Armed Madhouse of a nation.
Prostitution is illegal. Period. Check out NYC Backpages Escorts to get an idea of the hostility a client/provider encounter offers (and how putrid the women are). If you can a decent escort, she'll cost you a fortune. Streetwalking is illegal; you may find yourself in jail, as it would probably be a set-up. Or the streetwalker may have a cock, not a vagina. Craigslist is a mega set-up to entrap mongerers.
All that's offered are cold Asian massage parlors---ugly women, usually old, offering a wank for $150. Or ripoff "gentlemen's clubs" if $500+ lap dances are your thing.
As recently as 1995 (joking) there were a few brothels in nondangerous areas that opened up for a few months before being closed down.
I imagine there are some mongering holes here and there, but they'd be in very dodgy areas. I live in a Latino area, I'm sure games are played, but there are no messages about the party nor am I invited.
NYC sucks for sex. I also found Paris (the prices!!!) and Rome (not even a girlie magazine in the shadow of Vatican!!!) to be subpar.
Boy, you said a mouthful, brotha; I've lived in NYC for the past 4 years, and it's exactly how you describe it. I've found a few brothels from Backpage, but you're RIGHT on about the Asian massages. What a turn off...
