Aurora Banqiao Brothel ❤️❤️❤️❤️

About Taipei

Brothels been around forever, precious. Old Rome had ‘em – lupanars, they called ‘em, wolf dens! Girls howled for coin, ha! Me favorite bit? In Nevada, legal ones got rules – condoms, check-ups, no messin’ about. Surprised me, that did! Thought it’d be all grime and chaos. Nope, organized as fuck. “You’re a ghost,” Monty’d say – invisible workers, hauntin’ the system.

He’s just a little dude, probably didn’t mean it. I can’t stay mad. I just laugh it off.
