Here's a madame that could tell you a thing or two about sex in a brothel in Nevada. Check out her "Memoirs"

On August 9, 1999, after more than two decades of trying to close the Mustang Ranch the federal government quietly took over the pink stucco ranch and politely ushered the prostitutes out of the pussy palacio and padlocked the doors. Nevada prostitution would never be the same, and for the legal prostitute working in a brothel, cathouse, baglio, or whorehouse these working girls had seen a bit of Reno, Nevada history.

The property was forfeited to the U.S. government and Bureau of Land Management after guilty verdicts for fraud and racketeering were decided against the parent companies of the Mustang Ranch. And what a sex therapy tragedy this was, for once upon a time, on a busy night, 50 to 100 rooms were being worked non-stop by girls partying with marines, cowboys, businessmen, legislators, doctors, lawyers, and Indian chiefs.

They had a ritual called The 20 Initiations.

Storey County was the first to legalize (as opposed to accept) prostitution in America. Joe Conforte was the man who worked the hardest to make it all possible and Mustang Ranch was the epitome of his efforts, a legal brothel in Nevada where men could partake of all kinds of sexual fantasies. That was then, and now the Nevada brothel map has changed, and the old brothel guide is not the same. In November of 2003, the Mustang Ranch I, and Mustang Ranch II were sold on Ebay auctions by the Bureau of Land Management, to two separate brothel owners. Mustang Ranch I was bought by the owners of the Wild Horse Canyon Brothel (located a few miles east) for a reported price of $140,000. Mustang Ranch II was purchased by Dennis Hof, owner of the Moonlight Bunny Ranch located outside of Carson City, for a reported $18,000.

Both parties were required to remove the buildings from their existing sites, restore the grounds to a natural habitat, and relocate the buildings elsewhere. Both parties expressed desires to convert the former cathouses into brothel museums, for which they legally could advertise Today, however, the issue of who owns the name and licensing rights to the Mustang Ranch remains open to debate depending on who you listen to. Some people consider Mustang to be a location only, a name that cannot be transferred. The owners of the Old Bridge Ranch have stated that they might own the name and rights to Mustang Ranch, that the only things sold were two buildings.
