PROSTITUES

just like every town in the world, Amsterdam has hookers. Unlike most citeis, here some sit in windows with red lights. Not that you were thinking about it, but the going rate starts at 50 euro for what they unpoetically call a "suck and fuck"(always with a condom). It takes about fifteen minutes, and probably won't be the most romantic experience you've ever had.

Some prostitues are trapped in debt and drugs, but many are in control of their own destiny. Women rent their windows for 100-150 euro for an eight-hour shift, and popular ones take in 500-750 euro a day. Many fill out tax returns and belong to a loose union, the Red Thread.

The most facous (and expensive) brothel in town is Yab Yum although the women are not necessarily more exclusive than at any other clubs. Your cabbie will be happy to receive a commission for bring you there.

If you prefer to, er, relax in your hotel room, Pretty Escorts offers just that. Perhaps the most customer service oriented operation in town, they are known to be reputable, reasonably priced and to keep their website accurate. The actual woman promised (usually an Eastern European in her early 20s) arrives at your door in 30 minutes. That is as fast as a pizza！

REAL LIVE SEX SHOW

Believe it or not, expect exactly what the signs promise. After haggling about the price with the multilingual doorman, take a seat in the small cabaret theatre. One can expect most of the following : a virginal muscle demonstration, a male stripper, a lesbian 69 number, and the grand finale: real live sex.

Set your sights right as it is more interesting than erotic. But no matter how you slice it, a man and a woman will come on stage, engage in mechanical foreplay, work the gentleman to typical porno-style 3/4 erection, and have sex before your eyes. Write home about that!

Theater Casa Rosso the best show in the red light district. No haggling about the price here; everybody pays the posted 30 euro. but you get a higher quality, reasonable sexy show starring attractive men and women in a clean, well-lit theater. When we were at Casa Rosso, much to our surprise, a full third of the audience was women.

If the Casa Rosso is not enough for you, head down the street to the nastier Banana Bar. This is a uh unique place where naked women alternate between fillying your drinks and performing erotic parlor tricks, including their trademark banana routine. For better or worse, the action happends on the bar right in front of your face. 40 euro includes all you can drink for an hour and an experience you won't soon forget. Best to go when its busy when there;s more action because someone has to pay to start a performance. Whether you want to be the focus of the show or near that person is up to you. Not surprisingly, a bachelor party mentality pervades and women would definitely feel out of place.
