Why Brothels are becoming common?

Brothels or whore house means where people come to have sexual activities with the prostitutes.

In western countries like Amsterdam the brothels are quite common but In Pakistan these are becoming common day by day.

Previously they were found in some areas like streets of Heera Mandi, Texali Gate etc. Now the situation is very different these whore houses are quite common in cities like Islamabad, Karachi and Lahore.

In these cities these shifted in posh areas like Defense, Cant etc. there aren’t only Pakistani prostitutes but Russian and Chinese girls are also available there. What happening is that these prostitutes were evacuated from the streets so that they cannot do anything openly. This was done without providing them any other facilities like education, jobs etc.

As a result they didn’t let it go that easily, to make their life going and to earn money they moved towards towns. This was the reason which further led to an increase in the number of whores and the Brothels. The Russian and Chinese prostitutes came in order to entertain the upper class. Previously they came in a small group but now a major percentage of brothels are either filled with Russian or Chinese prostitutes, in the urban areas.

These are the reasons why the Brothels are becoming so common in our society.
