A brothel, also known as a bordello or whorehouse, is an establishment specifically dedicated to prostitution, providing the prostitues a place to meet and to have sex with the clients.
In some, prostitutes are held in bondage without the option to leave, receiving only a small portion (or none) of the money paid by the patron.
In others the prostitutes are employees, receiving a small fixed salary and a portion of the money spent by the customer.
A unique business model exists in the brothel Big Sister in Prague: customers have sex for free, with the operation being financed by the sale of video recordings on the Internet. |
