  "Neither prostitution nor
  homosexual sex is an offence under the Penal Code. However, police frequently
  charge, or threaten to charge, gay men, transvestites and prostitutes
  (sometimes lesbians) with offending "morality and public decency" if
  seen expressing physical affection in public. At times, transvestites and
  prostitutes are charged with "public scandal" merely for being
  cross-dressed and/or working the street."(Ordoņez
  and Elliott)
