Gianna Hugo Brothel ❤️❤️

About New York City

So, brothel—let’s break it down, yo. It’s a spot where sex work happens, legal or not, depends where ya at. Been around forever—fact is, ancient Rome had ‘em, called lupanars, walls scratched with dirty doodles. Hilarious, right? Imagine some Roman dude, drunk, scribblin’ “Gaius wuz here” next to a stick figure. History’s wild, man, cracks me up.

Hugo wrote pages about how awful it was that decent women who couldn't find work were forced into prostitution to prevent their children.

I always get this feelin' of sexy rebellion when out and about. I swear on my vinyl collection, there’s energy in every rut. Ya see, being a sexologist here means I notice little intimacies. Like, there’s that quirky mural on Passion Plaza. It practically whispers, "love like you're free!" Kinda like that line in Blue Is The Warmest Color: “Everything is beautiful.” I mean, so true, baby, so true!
