60
\n Bed Brothel and Drive-in Sex Sheds Planned in Shadow of Stadium<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

BERLIN
\n (Reuters) – A German company is looking to cash in on an expected boom
\n in the sex trade during next year’s soccer World
\n Cup with a 60-room brothel a walk away from Berlin’s Olympic Stadium,
\n German media reported Friday.<\/p>\n

Named after the virgin huntress of Greek mythology, the "Artemis" complex
\n is due to open for business in September with whirlpool, sauna, cinema,
\n buffet restaurant and a staff of 100 prostitutes, mass circulation daily
\n Bild reported.<\/p>\n

"This is no flash rip-off joint where clients are taken for a ride," a
\n spokesman for the Artemis GmbH investment company behind the project, told
\n the newspaper.<\/p>\n

Prostitution is legal in Germany in designated areas. Dortmund, one of
\n 11 other cities to host World Cup matches, has said it will install drive-in
\n wooden "sex garages" in time for the tournament in a bid to keep
\n the trade off the streets.<\/p>\n

Personally, we’ve always been partial to the "flash rip-off joints"
\n where one can always count on getting a good ride for your money. On the contrary, we hate those wooden
\n sex-garages
\n – they always
\n give us splinters….<\/em><\/p>\n
