Amsterdam prostitute twins retire at 70 after 50 years and 355,000 men
Metro [UK] ^ | Thursday 14 Mar 2013 | Aidan Radnedge

Two twin sister pensioners have decided to retire as prostitutes after half a century in the sex trade, having slept with 355,000 men between them.

Louise and Martine Fokkens, both 70, say they are finding it a ‘painful’ struggle to go on working in Amsterdam’s notorious ‘red light zone’.

They claim to be the oldest prostitutes in the Dutch city and last year starred in a documentary film named Meet The Fokkens.

Mother-of-four Louise admitted, though, that her arthritis means some positions are now ‘too painful’ – while mother-of-three Martine complained about a drop in custom.

Only one elderly man addicted to his weekly S&M sessions remains a regular, she said.

‘I couldn’t give him up. He’s been coming to me for so long it’s like going to church on a Sunday,’ Martine added.

Brothels were legalised in the Netherlands in 2000 – but the sisters say this ‘has not improved prostitutes’ lives’.

Martine said: ‘It is better for the pimps and the foreigners, but not for the Dutch girls.’

But the twins are confident their income from film rights will keep them solvent in the years of retirement ahead.

355,000 ÷ (50 * 365) ÷ 2 = 9.72 men per day

Seems a bit hard to believe.

Ya think? It has never been a glamorous profession and never will be. Why don't some people (leftists) ever get that?

But the twins are confident their income from film rights will keep them solvent in the years of retirement ahead.

What?!! The great socialist societies of Europe won't give them a life of ease in their old age?

I’d love to see #1 and #355,000 hook up at a bar somewhere and compare notes....

They are young and can look forward to a Playboy spread, leaked sex tape on YouTube, their own reality show, and finally a career in the adult film industry.

By and large, Leftists want to ***** anything that moves with no consequences. Facts get in the way.
