The Odd Blog Quote of the Month has been chosen, but first, a little background.
On Saturday, sex workers in Amsterdam offered a free look at the city’s famed red-light district. Wide-eyed gawkers got to pose for pictures and snoop behind the scenes. Organizers planned the event to help combat what they considered “bad publicity.”
So anyway, an erotic dancer named Love, shown here, was on hand at the Banana Bar to pose for photographs in a fluorescent negligee, and here’s what she said about the event: It is especially interesting for women. If they learn what we do here they will realize it is not a big deal if their husbands or boyfriends want to come here.
If that’s true, then those Dutch wives must be very, very unusual. Readers should feel free to agree or disagree via Post a Comment. Alexandra Hudson reports:

You know, things we’re supposed to do together. Now that I understand–I mean I just, boy do I feel silly. You shouldn’t believe everything you hear, I guess! You go on, honey. You have fun!”
