Re: Ladies of the night
Here we go again, the precious sanctity of 'the family' 
Actually separate hotels for people and their annoying children is a great idea.

Re: Ladies of the night
AIDS isn't that common amoung expats here since to be here legally we all need to have HIV tests at least every three years...some professions insist on yearly tests.
What they probably need to worry about are things like syphilis and other unpleasant things.

Re: Ladies of the night
I don't think i would be too happy paying a fortune to stay in a hotel and it's full of "ho's".
Just my opinion, i don't like it. Maybe Dubs should get a tolerance zone?

Re: Ladies of the night
Good. Keep your mewling brats away from sane adults. I have had too many evenings ruined by parents who leave their children to run around and make a racket when they ought to be in bed. You may find everything your children do to be appealling, but rest assured the rest of the world does not.

Re: Ladies of the night
The unaccetpable thing about Dubai is that this strict rule is not followed, and instead the discrimination is by nationality. Typically, Lebanese, Moroccan and Russians at the top end running down to African and Chinese ladies at the bottom end.
This is grossly unfair to hot gucci mamas from the third world.
A letter to the times is on its way.

Re: Ladies of the night
I watched an interesting documentary a few years back on the sex industry in Thailand. An Australian film crew followed this girl around for a couple of months. She had a child that lived with her parents and sister on the farm they all worked on. She would send money back to support her family. At the end of the doco there was a dialogue about how they had been unable to pay the young lady for the film, so they bought her her own farm - allowing her dad and family members to work it to support themselves. Twelve months later they went back to check on her - the farm was thriving and her family were doing well. She was working back on the streets and they asked her why - she said that it was her life, it was all she knew and if you're not from her culture and background you wouldn't understand.
Ultimately it goes on everywhere - calling them filthy won't change a thing, and given the desperate times some people are experiencing right now it's understandable almost. Perhaps legalisation and regulation would at least help protect the ladies health and likely prevent pimps from exploiting them further?

Re: Ladies of the night
and I think most businessmen would not want to go to a place like that either...so hotels will always be used, here and everywhere else...
lol...bet it made his day (although he will never admit it)
