It is my understanding that Britain also uses the "true statements that
harm a reputation are libel", but that it is mainly used against the news
media.

In the Netherlands, this is the case as well. It is, basically, a criminal
offence to harm so

But in OSM we map what's on the ground. Create a new tag like

Hi,
I had an interesting conversation with legal today.
Even if it's the truth, it's criminal libel if you state it as a
brothel. There's an interesting saying which you can Google that goes
"the greater the truth, the greater the libel".

Hi Dan,
I realise that it's my fault for not being very clear from the beginning. I
think as John mentions, amenity=soapland is about right. I do suspect that the
establishments in Thailand are based on the same concept as those which exist
in Japan.

I really don't want them to show up on a map next to Wat Pho massage
The name tag can be whatever it is, but making a amenity=soapland might be what
you are looking for. That way there is no confusion with massage places and
clearly understood to be for adult services.

Hi,
To avoid having the word "massage" throwing off the discussion, I'll
refer to it under it's legal name of "entertainment place".
I'll go ahead with the restrictions then, but the other issue is the
specific legal classification that entertainment places fall under[1] as
opposed to a regular,
The word you are looking for soapland. Japan has the same "give you a bath and
then have naughty fun" places called soaplands. They are becoming rarer and
rarer, but that is the term for them. Fits pretty well with the "soapy
massage". Using massage is not right because they are more for adult
Hi,
Well, that suggestion specifies access limits (i.e. only males age 21
or more), and if those are true facts and they're what you want to
indicate, then go ahead. The access limits don't really tell you if
something is soapy or not, but if you decide you only want to "imply"
that and not to sta
Hi,
I saw that, but I'm not convinced it's the right approach as what I'm
referring require a specific massage parlor license to operate as
opposed to a regular traditional massage establishment which is more
suited for shop=massage. I think it would be akin to saying a
convenience store and super
@Dan S — Good answer. I was wondering how to tag such places myself.

Hi,
Thailand has these places called "entertainment complexes"[1] that
offers bathing + massage services and quite often the expectation is
that there will be sexual services offered. However, I don't want to tag
them as brothels as prostitution on the premises is legally not allowed[2].
