You are very right about RI's split personality. I jokingly call my friend the conservative liberal: he's economically very liberal, but personally very conservative. I grew up in Rehoboth, MA right near RI (we'd watch Providence weather forecasts) and my mother worked there, so I know it pretty well. Went to college there too. My father also lives there. He told me that the prostitution thing is really more of a loophole nobody's bothered to close than anything else. That the law was written specifically addressing outdoor solicitation.
Here in the Northeast Kingdom (name for the NE part of VT) we have a clash of local conservatism with statewide liberalism. The whole civil union thing caused a big uproar here, but it faded into nothing almost immediately once there were no discernible consequences at all.
