Prostitutes in Spain wear reflective vests to avoid fines for being a danger to traffic

Seems that the glow provided by a red bulb doesn’t always provide enough light to draw attention to sex workers in a Spanish town…

Having been fined by the local council for reportedly being a danger to moving traffic, prostitutes in Els Alamus have taken to wearing high visibility vests. Not sure how this look goes down with the kerb crawlers, but if these ladies of the night were to accessorise with a pneumatic drill and cement mixer, it’d give a whole new level of meaning to ‘street girl’.

Interesting...I was in Barcelona 3 years ago and saw no hookers; and I sure was in the tourist areas. Perhaps Barcelona has a different attitude towards “sex workers.”

Have you seen the movie Skin Deep (1984) with John Ritter?

"I was in Madrid recently. I was really shocked to see the hookers in broad daylight..."

It it's anything like Germany, the quality improves with the night shift.

I wish I could remember the area. It was in one specific area of the city center. It wasn't pervasive through out the city. But still it wasn't an area that particularly screamed out "red light district" either. Well, with the exception of the hookers. (: Funny thing was, it was a cold February day too.

Hell, at least someone was working.

Average at best sex comedy but it has a glow in the dark condom scene that will have you rolling on the floor.

I had always thought that the pronounced “headlights” were sufficient.
