About Los Angeles

Brothels been around forever, fam—Romans had ‘em, called lupanars, wolf dens, ‘cause the girls howled or some shit. Wild fact: Venice, 1400s, they taxed ‘em! Government pimps, yo, that’s savage. Gets me heated—society judgin’ but profitin’, hypocrites everywhere! I’m like, “Let’s be real, world’s a mess.” Happy tho, ‘cause some girls outsmart the game, flip it, own it—genius moves! Surprised me too, heard this chick in Nevada, legal spot, she paid her way thru med school. Doc by day, hustler by night—iconic!

Project MUSE Mission

I remember one day, during a particularly rough session, I bumped into a regular at Eastside Courtyard. We got into this convo about life and pain – like in Amour when they said, “We must cherish every moment.” And dude, I felt it hard in my bones. It was like every stroke of my massage was a message, you know? The city gives you one heck of a workshop in life lessons.
