I'm a criminal defense attorney and I've had a case like this. It actually happened to mesh with our defense, that the girls were just mad because the client portrayed himself as a rap video talent scout and took all sort of advantages of the girls.
What the OP said is true. You cannot raise orgasm or arousal as an affirmative defense, primarily because it is irrelevant. But that does not mean that it cannot be incorporated into the defense. In our theory of defense, we argued that the allegations were based on the girls' disappointment and desire for revenge after our client falsely held himself out as a rap video scout, had sex with the girls, and then taunted them for being gullible. So if the sexual act started with at least some amount of voluntariness, although there were plenty of evidence or coercion and even force, then the girls would have been into it enough to to have gotten aroused during the act and even orgasm from it.
It didn't work, and to be honest, we didn't think it would. For one, the allegations were of a rape spree, around 7 girls picked up from a urban mall and then raped in various abandoned houses. Only one of the girls reported arousal/orgasm and if anything, that made her look more honest and credible. Secondly, even if the jury had bought our defense for that particular girl, the motive operandi for that was identical to 6 other victims. It's hard to beat all those charges because they tend to support and bolster each other.
He was sentenced to 280 years in prison. Although he was eligible for life sentence, the judge specifically structured the sentence into consecutive terms of years to remove any hope of parole or early release, as at that time, life sentence is eligible for parole after 14 years.
edit: Some people are questioning how I can defend someone charged with such a heinous crime. I posted this explanation some time ago. You have to do your part, trusting (and verifying!) others to do their job. What results is by definition justice. If I work my butt off, vigorously defend my client to the best of my ability, and he gets acquitted, I've done by job. If I do the same, and he gets convicted, I'd still done my job.

It's not just driving services. And not even as a muscle if something goes wrong. But as a girl, you walk into an unfamiliar environment with a guy you don't know about engage in something illegal, I imagine it'd awful nice to be able to say, "My driver is outside." That should discourage the creepy and the clingy. Psychopath will still get'em though...
If these girls are working without an agency, it's a great margin for them since agencies typically take around half.

Have to reload from save first.
edit: fuck reddit... I submit what I think is an insightful and informative post based on my professional expertise and experience on vital matters people actually requested and get like 10 upvotes, but I put up a flippant little turd 10 minutes before I run off to do more of that professional shit I do, and it becomes my highest upvoted comment ever. Before this, it was when i was making fun of the Germans.
