Sex & economics




This global economic melt-down that we're in must be really helping the sex industry.There are certainly alot more sex service ads in the back of the Moscow News and The Moscow Times these days. When i first came over in September there might be one or two ads which were often a source of comment and laughter for the young ones at language school.They looked sad amongst the adverts for taxis and business services.

Now, my word . Ladies and gents i give you the Karma Bar .Cut out the picture of Miss Bust in their ad and you get 50% off your entrance fee. If that doesn't float your boat how about the 911 mens club ... yep 911 that's what it's called . 911 ...emergency sex...... correct me if I'm wrong but has anyone ever died from not having sex ? That aside, quite frankly there's so much freeness on offer at 911 i do wonder how long they'll stay in business. At said club there is a 'totally nude free lap dance twice a night'.Between 6-9pm there a 'free gourmet buffet'... i wonder if food is the only thing on the menu ?!Wednesdays you can get a '2for1 couch dance' AND there's 'a SEXY DANCE PARTY' their capitals not mine. Then there are the women - sadly some students among them- offering their services with the usual promises of instant unforgettable ecstasy.Then one guy I've seen advertise simply says 'Sexy boy 28 for girls'.Just goes to show that even when we are selling what our mothers and fathers gave us , we women still don't cut out the hyperbole. Through checking out a couple of the websites these women have set up I'm amazed to find out that there's a service called PunterLink which basically an info site if you have an itch you don't mind paying someone to scratch.

There's one who has her own website and she somewhat dubiously claims that 'nothing implied or inferred within these pages is not to be taken as an inducement for payment anything other than time and companionship'.This 'claim' is somewhat at odds coming straight after the fact that she states that if anything happens 'it is a matter of coincidence and between consenting adults'. She must have alot of coincidences .A 'deluxe 2 hour date' with this woman is 200euros. Looking at her rates it seems the longer you keep her the cheaper the rate.She wants 400euros for an overnight, 600 euros for a day + overnight and 500 euros for each additional day.Now maybe it's just me, but, if your rate for 2 deluxe hours is 200 euros, how come a full day plus an overnight is 600euros ? Maybe after the first 2 deluxe hours she gets a deluxe headache !

As far I'm concerned there are alot of products that you can offer a discount on but as a woman your woohah shouldn't be one of them. In fact I've just made up a little mantra lets call it the 'Hookers Gospel'



If i should lay me down and you fall sleep , it ain't my problem , i checked... your pockets run deep.

If i should lay me down and you come so quickly you weep, it ain't my problem.. i checked... your pockets run deep.

My body, my temple.

You get laid,

I get paid.

The equation , my dear, is that simple'


In any event in this global downturn it seems to me that Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac along with Northern Rock aren't the only ones whose maths is a bit off point .
