Always Blame The Newbies

The City of Ghent, Belgium, has initiated new local ordinances that prohibit prostitutes from appearing:

"...naked, in underwear, in bikinis or in see-through clothes," or of "dancing in windows" or "miming sexual acts,"

The working ladies are allowed to "present their wares" to potential customers in neon lit windows on the street. They just gotta change the wrapping.

Neighbours have been complaining, even the prostitutes themselves, about more and more nuisance in the area, in front of the windows, fights breaking out ...," the mayor said.

One particularly notorious prostitute, Madame Stinky LeFebve, has moved her business back to Amsterdam. She was ejecting pingpong balls from her shaved nuisance at passersby and refused to purchase a paintball permit.

Local newspaper Di Morgen cited one veteran prostitute as saying particularly competitive new arrivals from eastern Europe were behind this cranked-up atmosphere compared to a decade ago.

So no more discount coupons, free key chains or "buy nine and the tenth one's on me!" ticket punching. That's verboden!
