Sex Workers

This may seem like a strange topic, but it is a collection of glimpses of the center of some cities.
Travelers know of the reputations of places like Bangkok and Amsterdam.
Amsterdam is in the final stages of moving their red light district out of the central city.
Amsterdam's district was a major tourist attraction.
But, there are also obvious other places where this sort of thing is seen.
My wife and I were having lunch it a plaza in Madrid. Two "lovely" young women dressed
for work made an office at the top of the local metro stairs. A man protectively watched the action from the shadows. Over a lunch hour, the woman took several walks with men who seemed to be strangers.
Prague has a large massage parlor very near the Municipal House (see above).
It is right in the famous plaza heralding the Astronomical Clock.  
Lots more sightings.
While seen in U.S. cities, it is more open in these European countries.
You don't have to look for  it, It finds you.
