Women turn to brothel industry in tough economy
January 5,2009
It's known as the world's oldest profession and in a time of recession, there is apparently no shortage in the number of women applying for jobs.
The owner of The Bunny Ranch, a legal brothel in Nevada, says he is getting a steady stream of applications from women who need jobs.
Prostitution is legal in Nevada, and Dennis Hof says that's where many women are finding jobs in an industry that seems to be thriving, even in a recession.
"There so many girls wanting to go to work now because of the economy," said Hof, who owns The Bunny Ranch. "There's lay-offs in every sector of the economy. The auto workers, the big insurance companies, Wall Street... we get a lot of people from New York City wanting to come to work."
According to Hof, The Bunny Ranch received more than 1,500 applications for employment just for the month of December.
