A red-light district is a part of an urban area where there is a concentration of prostitution and sex-oriented businesses, such as sex shops, strip clubs, adult theaters, etc. The term originates from the red lights that were used as signs of brothels.[1] There are areas in many big cities around the world which have acquired an international reputation as red-light districts

Gordeedoo,
Did you notice in the red light district Amsterdam, the lights on the bridges were red. The other bridges have white lights.

I remember Balsall Heath from much earlier than you until they Demolished Varna Road, Princess Road and Alexander Road which by the way were all in Edgbaston. They demolished those three roads in the 70's getting rid of some good Victorian houses and replacing them with boxes because they thought it would rid them of a problem. All they did was move the problem to the other side of the park and Cheddar Road.

GNC what we have to remember is however it looks or sounds distasteful to us , she is after all someone's daughter and they probably think the world of her

My personal opinion of prostitution (said to be the oldest profession in the world) is that if that someone wants to sell their body and someone wants to buy it then it's their business. So lets keep it off the streets and legalise it so it can be monitored and kept healthy out of the public view to avoid affecting the sensibilties of those who think thaty sex is only for those who have a piece of paper or have been given permission by some religion or other.
