妓院

妓院或窯子(bordello)是一處以賣淫為目的的室內處所。它可能安頓在一所公寓、一組旅行拖車、或一整棟大大小小的建築物內。在一些國家，妓院是合法的並公開刊登廣告，在另外的國家，妓院是非法的，並因而在“僻靜的”特定區域（通常員警是熟知的）不聲不響地經營著它們的營生。在某些大城市，妓院可能被局限在一些叫“紅燈區”的地區。

在妓院的工作條件差異懸殊，從實質上的奴隸身份到拿著足夠收入的正式聘用。在一些案例裏，妓院只不過是常規的公寓，在那裏數名女人一起工作和接待主顧。一些大型妓院（在德國稱為“性愛中心，Eros Center”）僅僅把房產租給自己經營的妓女。妓院的這種佈局大都在大城市或靠近大城市。無論如何，因為租金非常之高，妓院的擁有者總是獲利最多。另一方面，在遇到有虐待行為的主顧時，大型妓院裏的女人有得到保護的優勢。

近年來，已經發展起來一些新型妓院：大型、奢侈和帶有影屏、游泳池和同時為數百名主顧提供服務的桑拿浴設施的“豪華”俱樂部。 通常，常規的門票費含有免費進餐和軟飲料。去那裏消費的男人可能只不過是去放鬆而已，但是也會碰到赤身裸體的女人，在與她們預先做一番某種私密的性服務討價還價之後，然後進入一個分隔的空間。這種女人是自己開業者，而且直接收取報酬。像這種大型賣淫處所，人們稱其為“大妓院（mega brothel）”。

在歐洲的大城市裏有另一類相當獨特的妓院，如果主顧同意在他們性活動期間給拍攝電影，就會為其主顧提供免費的女人性服務。這些影片是為付費的互聯網觀眾所拍攝的，而且也作為錄影或DVD出售的。所產生的利潤支撐這種整個的經營活動。

“大妓院”網站

在歐洲許多國家，妓院在互聯網上公開做廣告。此處顯示的例子是來自一家巨型妓院的網站大幅主頁截取的畫面。（為了避免被輕易識破，廣告中這些場所的名稱及其它細節內容已經做了處理，但是其活動的內容則確定無疑。）

Brothels

A brothel or bordello is an indoor establishment run for the purpose of prostitution. It may be housed in an apartment, in a group of trailers, or in a whole small or large building. In some countries, brothels are legal and openly advertised, in others they are illegal and therefore run unobtrusively in “secret” locations (usually well known to the police). In some large cities, brothels may be confined to so-called “red-light districts“.
The working conditions in a brothel can range from virtual slavery to regular employment with adequate income. In some cases, the brothel is nothing more than regular apartment where several women work together and receive their customers. Some large brothels (called “Eros Centers” in Germany) merely rent their premises to self-employed prostitutes. This arrangement is mostly found in or near large cities. In any case, the owners always profit most, because the rent is quite high. On the other hand, the women have the advantage of enjoying some protection from abusive customers.
In recent years, some new types of brothels have developed:  Large, luxurious “wellness” clubs with movie screens, swimming pools and saunas accommodating several hundred customers at the same time. A general entry fee includes free food and non-alcoholic beverages. The men can simply relax, but also meet nude women on the premises with whom they can negotiate some private sexual service and then retire to a separate room. The women are independent operators and are paid directly. Large establishments like this have been called “mega brothels”.
Another, rather unique brothel in a large European city offers its customers the free services of its women if they agree to be filmed during their sexual activity. The films are made accessible to paying internet viewers and are also sold as videos or DVDs. The profits support the whole enterprise.
