The Sex Market and Sexual Relations

Alexander Matyushensky (1862-1931) — Russian journalist, writer, and publisher.
One of the most scandalous books of its time, «The Sex Market and Sexual Relations» opens the story of legal prostitution at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century in the Russian Empire. The author ruthlessly tells about brothels, yellow tickets, and professional «priestesses of love».
At what age was it allowed to work in «houses of tolerance»? How much did one night of pleasure cost? How many brothels did Japanese businessmen open in Tsarist Russia? Which social class did «priestesses of love» most often come from? How did a first-class brothel differ from a third-class one? Who were called «camellias»? And what was referred to as unnatural vice?
An explicit book about the history of paid love in pre-revolutionary Russia with comments from artificial intelligence.
