    It's easy! Just use my contact form and tell me about your event, when it's scheduled, the audience size, the venue, and the topics you'd like covered. I answer I all my correspondence personally!


Scheduling Questions

  • How do I set up an appointment with you?

    My contact form is for all non-brothel-related inquires, if you're looking for hands-on intimacy training, couples sessions, or for other services offered exclusively in Nevada, you can contact me via HannahFoxx@bunnyranch.com


Profession Questions

  • What is a Legal Courtesan?

    The Nevada Brothel System allows for independent contractors to work under a prostitution license (which is fully legal in the state), so that a practitioner is legally allowed to touch and interact with clients in a discreet location. What kinds of services each independent contractor offers is entirely up to them! Traditional sex therapists and doctors aren't allowed to physically interact with sexual dysfunction or watch sex acts to educate, and this allows me to do what no other intimacy coach elsewhere can do, help you hands on!


Personal History Questions

  • What qualifies you to do this kind of work?

    I've worked with individuals, couples, and public events as a doula/midwife and sex educator for the better part of a decade. I have hands-on experience dealing with everything from sexual dysfunction to the psychology of dating.


    I have also trained as a nurse and EMT, though because of my license I must specifically say that my intimacy-related services are not under the auspices of a medical license and are NEVER a substitute for the advice of your doctor or licensed therapist.


    I have great working relationships with pelvic specialists and other amazing professionals that I am happy to provide referrals for if your problem requires medical attention.


Legal Nevada Brothel Questions

  • Are the Nevada Brothels closed or open?

    Yes we're open! Some indexing websites haven't gotten around to updating for every location, but rest assured the industry is alive and well. The death of Dennis Hoff caused some people to question if his properties would remain open and they too are already up and running.

  • How many legal brothels are in Las Vegas?

    Trick question! The answer is zero! Clark County (the county that includes Las Vegas) has a strict policy on legal sex work and you'll need to drive a few hours outside of Vegas to find a legal establishment. If someone offers their services directly out of Las Vegas, no matter how reputable they seem, they are operating outside the law.


    The only exception are properties like the Moonlite Bunny Ranch who provide the ability to outbook and outcall to go anywhere in the state for a booking, but you must first meet in person on the property outside Carson City in Northern Nevada to start the booking, as it's the only place that's legal to discuss prices!


    The great news is that many Nevadans commute back and forth from Northern Nevada to Las Vegas for employment, and that means there is an inexpensive flight daily that can take you from Northern Nevada to Las Vegas in as little as 45 minutes. Book a companion or an educational session on the property and fly out to have your own private adventure!

  • How many legal brothels are in Nevada? / Where are brothels legal?

    Nevada Brothel Law is complicated. Only counties that have chosen to allow brothels may have them, such as Lyon County, and generally only properties that have already been licensed can offer services. 


    This strangeness of the law creates the odd situation that properties have to meet very strict criteria to be able to make improvements or remodel, and many of the brothels in Nevada are full of architectural oddities that date back to the 70s or even earlier for this reason.


    Cathouses near Reno and Carson City have a very rich history, with many celebrity visitors and events that aren't necessarily focused on the services offered at the location, such as Karaoke nights, celebrations, and educational events. Due to the fact they aren't allowed to advertise, many of these events are only visible on the actual content for those locations or by word-of-mouth.

  • Are Nevada Brothels safe?

    Being licensed to work on location requires constant updating of health screening paperwork and background checks, and all activities booked through the ranch require protection.


    Operating under the auspices of the law also gives Legal Brothels the ability to offer discretion and protection from scrutiny for the private adventures and education that take place there. Many locations offer discreet entrances, on request, and you can proceed with a visit or booking with the same confidence you would scheduling a massage at a commercial chain location.


    Due to the fact that extensive background checks are necessary as part of working in the industry, brothel workers, be they on a small tour from living elsewhere or living on the location semi-permanently, have a vested interest in not only your privacy, but keeping their behavior both professional and legal.

  • How much do Nevada Brothels charge?

    Every person who works in the legal system, with few exceptions for location-based staff, is working as an independent contractor and has guidelines that are set through the house but have a lot of latitude in pricing for their time.


    Factors include whether or not that lady lives locally or has to commute from elsewhere in the country to go on tour, expenses for everything from clothing and makeup to educational materials, and what they do in their primary career if they have one and need to charge to make offering their time worthwhile.


    As legal workers, we also pay taxes! Most establishments take 50% of booking amounts to pay to keep the lights on and pay the series of fees and licensing requirements to keep their doors open. Establishments have to have their own employees, as well, for everything from security to housekeeping to accounting in order to offer a safe place for brothels workers to operate.


    This means if you book a legal sex worker for $2000, they're actually getting about $700 for their time before expenses, and an average tour costs someone who travels to go on tour an average excess of $10,000, not only from lost wages or opportunities from their life away from the ranch, but for travel expenses and more.


    For this reason the average booking amount for simple services at a legal brothel is in the lower four figures, and planning a minimum budget in that range before making arrangements to travel for your very first visit is a wise idea.


    Bear in mind that after your first visit to any property, most of these concerns will evaporate as once you step foot on the property it then becomes legal to discuss services, time, and most importantly, price.

  • Why should brothels be legal?

    Do you believe that intimacy is a human need? Have you ever thought about how challenging it can be to have sexual dysfunction, a new medical diagnosis, or to try to rediscover dating and intimacy after the loss of a partner you never thought you'd have to live without?


    You're not the only one!


    It's a common misapprehension that brothels are antagonistic to important cultural values like fidelity and marriage. Most people who have no exposure to the legal system conjure up mental images of strip clubs and seedy bars and imagine married men being seduced by lascivious prostitutes for money while having to keep one hand on their wallet.


    Narratives like this can be amusing, but they have nothing to do with the reality of the legal system. Most marriage and sex therapists have the crippling limitation that they cannot touch or physically interact with you when trying to provide guidance or education. Imagine the boundaries that are lifted and the incredible progress that can be made without those constraints!


    Most brothel visitors are looking to connect, and they think they can't ask for the emotional context they clearly need, and so they start by asking to explore fetishes and encounters with more than one person at a time because without understanding more they think it's all we have to offer.


    What visitors come to understand, however, is that motivated self-interest is a part of every relationship, be it personal or professional, each with its own boundaries and circumstances. What Nevada Brothels offer is less important than Who is offering it.


    Many brothel workers are teachers or educators, have Master's or other professional degrees, and work in industries like Health, Education, and Professional Services. PhD candidates in gender studies or Psychology will even sometimes do a tour to learn first-hand the dynamics of the human condition behind closed doors.


    This makes finding the right kind of provider for your visit crucial, and it should depend on a lot more than how they look in a bathing suit.


    Human intimacy is a need, and when someone on the autism spectrum or a veteran with scars from combat or a couple who is looking for a safe third partner or a person who wants to figure out the cause of their sexual dysfunction visits, it's not an oddity, it's a daily occurance!


    Many of the studies and statistics you'll see about the sex industry are based on 98% of the public experience, the criminalization of sex work, and that perception touches us through media and film.


    The reality of legal sex work is much closer to prohibition. 


    Can alcohol be a negative part of cultural reality? 


    Yes, and it was made far worse by making it illegal. It created moonshine, a dangerous unregulated product that caused everything from poisoning to still explosions, it created speakeasies, gangsters with tommy-guns, and money laundering. Our failure to make alcohol illegal should be a lesson, and that lesson is that a regulated industry keeps those who work in it safe, shares that safety with those who enjoy those services, and keeps a legitimate human need within the reach of those who need it.


    Lawmakers are there to serve the public good, not to legislate their personal morality. Just as it was true with alcohol, keeping the legal doors open allows for more control and safety over an industry that could be just as negative as any other if not regulated.


    Recently, Lyon County called into question whether or not brothels were an outmoded call to the Old West and if it was time to make them illegal. Residents responded overwhelmingly (~80%) that the legal system not only benefitted the community, but that the services offered there were anything but dangerous to the public good.


    Only deciding to have your own visit to one of the properties (most of them offer free tours!) or listening to first-hand experience will let you really understand the truth.
