Texas Penal Code Practice

Which behavior is classified as Promoting Prostitution?

1. Engaging in sexual conduct for a fee

2. Receiving money to participate in prostitution proceeds

3. Soliciting another person for sexual conduct in public

4. Displaying a deadly weapon in public

The correct answer is: Receiving money to participate in prostitution proceeds

Promoting prostitution is the act of receiving money or other property to participate in or manage a prostitution enterprise. This behavior contributes to the facilitation of prostitution activities and the exploitation of individuals involved in such activities. Engaging in sexual conduct for a fee falls under the act of prostitution itself, soliciting another person for sexual conduct in public is classified as solicitation or indecent exposure, and displaying a deadly weapon in public is typically a separate offense related to weapons possession. Therefore, the correct answer is B as it directly involves receiving money to participate in prostitution proceeds, which aligns with the definition of promoting prostitution.
