Call me Madam
Today is International Whores' Day, dear reader, as you undoubtedly already know... It has been celebrated annually since 1976. In German, it is known as Hurentag (Whore's Day). In Spanish-speaking countries, it is the Día Internacional de la Trabajadora Sexual, the International Day of the Sex Worker. In Amsterdam, a statue (above) called "Belle" was erected [outside the Oude Kerk in the Red-light District, directly opposite the hotel we usually stay in when we're there; of course] by way of a tribute.
To mark this auspicious day, here's some whores...
Don't forget your PPE.
