The Netherlands in the 17th century was a great seafaring nation, with many sailors going out to sea for more than a year. When these sailors returned to land, they needed to vent the stress that had accumulated at sea, and the demand for sexual services arose.
To meet their needs, Amsterdam's "Call Girl" was born. They are mainly gathered in the port area of the city, which is the initial prototype of ***. As Amsterdam has developed from a fishing village to an important port city, it has become more and more developed.
By the late 19th century, Amsterdam had become famous as one of the most famous in Europe at the time.
At that time, the industry was mainly distributed in the downtown area, the scale was expanding, more and more women participated in the "first easy", and the industry evolved into an important underground economy.
Today, Amsterdam has become one of the world's most famous companies and is known by many as the "Sin Capital of Europe".
The most famous area is the Devalen district, where hundreds of *** establishments are gathered, and it is estimated that thousands of sex workers provide services here every night.
The most striking thing is the shop windows lining the streets, which is a major feature of Amsterdam***. During the day, these windows are covered with red cloths.
When night falls, the curtain of the window slowly rises, and what is displayed inside is no longer a commodity, but a man in scantily clad **. They use various movements to attract the attention of passers-by, and carry out silent "sales".
The reason why these window girls are scantily clad and exaggerated in their movements is, on the one hand, that the rent is expensive and that more business is needed to recoup the cost. It is reported that the rent of window windows in the Devalen district can reach thousands of euros per month.
On the other hand, it is also related to the open sexual culture in the Netherlands. Under the influence of such an environment, they do not have too many moral barriers to "sex" work.
When asked why she chose this profession, a sex worker in the Devalen district said that it was nothing more than a means of earning hundreds of euros per hour, which is much higher than the average job. Passers-by reacted differently to the window girl.
* Easy legalizationSince the 60s of the 20th century, Western countries, including the Netherlands, have launched a sexual liberation movement, demanding the legalization of some "sex"-related behaviors.
In October 2000, the Netherlands officially implemented the policy of easy legalization. This provides a policy basis for Amsterdam*** to flourish.
Nowadays, tens of thousands of domestic and foreign tourists come here every year, driving the prosperity of related service industries. In order to promote sexual culture, Amsterdam also deliberately established the world's first ** museum in 1985.
There are a large number of artistic ** sculptures on display, reflecting the open sexual conception of the Dutch. One of the most famous exhibits is "Marilyn Monroe", a statue that will be dressed in order and finally appear in a completely ** state.
Such a bold display would be unimaginable in China. The museum is now one of Amsterdam's new landmarks, a must-see attraction for tourists, and a driving force for tourism in the Netherlands, attracting millions of domestic and foreign tourists every year.
Ancient Chinese sexual culture was heavily influenced by Confucianism, which believed that it was necessary to restrain one's desires and that being too open would affect the social order. The poet Bai Juyi used obscure techniques to describe "sex" in his famous work "Song of Long Hatred".
The spring night is bitter and the day is short, and the king will not be early in the dynasty", this poem describing the emperor's indulgence in beauty reflects the shyness of the ancient Chinese for sex. In contrast, contemporary Dutch and Western countries as a whole appear to be more open and tolerant when it comes to sexuality.
