"Yoko wasn't slow to recognize the dangers posed by this [drink- and drug-binging] behavior. Just as she had once sought to sate John's lust by procuring him a discrete and trustworthy mistress, so now she arranged with reliable people, like Elliot Mitz or Tony King, to have her husband taken to a whorehouse. (John was too insecure to go by himself, and Yoko wanted a full report on how he behaved.) One of these establishments, a Korean brothel on 23rd Street, still proudly displays Lennon's signed photograph."

-- from Goldman's Lennon Bio -- specifically his account of Lennon's behavior shortly after Lennon returned to the Dakota.

You can make it illegal, but you can't make it unpopular.
