A: The problem with answering your question is that you do not give very much context. Any smart attorney will say it depends. In general the demonstration that you are speaking of, to adult and consenting males, would not be criminal. There are, however, a ton of ways for this to be illegal. I emphasize a ton of ways. If any of the males is under age a corruptiion charge would be appropriate. If a female is demonstrating prostitution charges could be charged. There are various other creative ways the Commonwealth to charge this type of case. Your best bet would be to have a consultation with a local defense attorney and give them the specific facts of what you are trying to accomplish. They will have a better perspective on what local authorities are likely to do/how they will treat this case.
