The Belgian city of Antwerp is to dim its new waterfront lights after complaints from prostitutes.
Sex workers complained the bright lights were putting off potential clients, reports Independent Online.
"We had some remarks from the prostitutes that there was too much light, both for them and the clients," city council spokesperson Jorn Verbeeck said.
"We are investigating the possibility of lowering the light there."
Prostitutes complained to city and police officials that the lights did not give them enough privacy and hurt business, he said.
The port, which tolerates sex workers in a select few streets near the waterfront, is to test an electric system to dim the lights.
Since its Belgium, I'm guessing half the "girls" have wankers.
Truth is, hookers there are very keen amateur astronomers, and the lights were hurting their nightly variable star observations . . . |
Evil prefers the darkness. Evil NEVER likes the light.
Jhn 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
You know the liberal philosphy has gone too far, when the prostitutes have a powerful lobby.
Or at least too many legislators on the client list.
Antwerp used to be a wonderful city, until radical Jihadists took over and demonstrate downtown almost every week, and violence against the centuries-established Jewish population has escalated, with nary a response from the government.
Prostitutes are evil??
Or just the oppposite when they have to lobby them at their offices instead of their bedrooms.
That's the verse I was thinking of ... .
"Prostitutes are evil??"
Unfortunately you really can't compartmentalize their behavior with what's in their heart. What is in the heart comes out through their behavior.
So, having said that ... do you think highly of prostitutes?
Thanks, I will!
I'm sure, as individuals, there are those that are very good people, those that are very bad, and those that are somewhere in between...as for their profession, I really don't care either way, but I don't consider them or their profession, evil.
LOL!
You're as confused as they are.
Perhaps you'll marry a prostitute? Ah, a "good" one?
Some women charge cash for sex....others make you buy them dinner 3 times. What is the difference?
"Some women charge cash for sex....others make you buy them dinner 3 times. What is the difference?"
And some men can't help themselves ... so do two wrongs make it right?
2 wrongs don't make a right, but 4 rights will bring you around the block.
Also a negative times a negative will get you a positve.
Prostitutes have been around for 4 milliion years. It depends upon the form they take.
