More and more Hungarian women are moving to Germany to become prostitutes. Most of them offer their services 12 hours a day, and a large majority of them hate it.
Their horrible economic conditions at home, the pressure from their family, the temptation of quick money, no knowledge of the language, and an urge to belong to someone or physical or psychological coercion all lead to these women handing a large part of the money made with the hated but lucrative sex work to a man. Even if they could easily keep the whole sum to themselves.
Modern pimps look for young women on Facebook who then they put in business abroad, and not even their personal presence is required as the women are wiring the money back home.
From the street, one can only see his naked upper body. He arrived back to Bremerhaven the previous day after spending a few days in Hungary with his wife and children. But business was hot the previous night, and they only managed to get to bed at nine in the morning. The man looks at his clock and begrudgingly acknowledges that they missed the group arriving at lunchtime.
They are the clients who'd rather spend their lunch break with a quickie in the red light district than a cheap meal at a local restaurant. Despite this, he told me later during one of our conversations that he came to Bremerhaven to work. In practice, this means that he lives in the port city with his sex worker girlfriend, regards himself as her manager and lives off of her pay. He stands in the window absorbing the view of Lessingstrasse, the only street in town where prostitution is legal.
