Prostitution: The oldest profession
  • Tip Rating:
  • Prostitution is not just in the Geylang or Desker Road area. There are MANY other avenues also - and the main ones are massage parlors. Most of the smaller massage places offer "other" services. The KTV and karaoke clubs are also providing more than "singing". There is a whole big group of freelancers with regular customers and spread of word through mouth.
    But you cant really define prostitution - there are ordinary everyday neighbourhood ladies and girls who would return favour for favour - and Singapore is very much full of them. There are many internet sites as well (especially free ones) like hotbar.com

    Prostitution: Just looking!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Prostitution is legal. Hookers working in brothers take exams every 2 weeks. Beware if your friend is a street walker or is from nearby country in Singapore only for 2 weeks on "visitor visa".

    Note 1: Didn't hire any hookers, can't provide prices.

    Note 2: Read David Brazil's "No Money, No Honey!", it neither glamorizes nor degrades prostitution in Singapore. I believe it is updated by co-authors.

    1) Desker Road - Ready to see women over 45 hooking? Won't find them on Desker Road, but on a back alley between Desker and Rowell Rd (goes east-west, starts east of Serangoon Rd and goes all the way to Besar). On 4pm Sunday, 10 store fronts left their doors open and you can see each having 3-5 women staring back. Local friend said they wouldn't talk until you enter to negotiate prices. The work is done in small rooms inside the store. My friend also said local rate is SGD $12, and most clients are construction workers from India/Thailand (who are paid SGD $20 daily). I found this hard to believe: (a) sex for US$8, (b) the woman were yucky. By the way, it is very safe to walk around here.

    2) Geylang - You can find more googling for "Geylang". We drive and didn't get to check out the aquariums. From the car, some streetwalkers were very pretty. Hard to believe local rate is only SGD $40 for a short time (but tourist discount is SGD$80-100). There are even white women, as I saw 4 in front of a love hotel. Many pretty Chinese ones too. Tons of men, guessing Indian/Malaysian, just loitering in the area.

    3) Clark Quay - A classy tourist area. You will find some working solo or with a friend, but nothing obvious. I was propositioned two nights in a row by different girls.

    4) Orchard Towers (4 Floors of Whores) - Didn't go, but read this is where you spend SGD $200-300. Aussie friend said the name came from 4 dance clubs over one another: 1st floor are cheap women, 2nd floor are pretty girls, 3rd floor are tranvestites, and 4th floor is a pricey club where women are gorgeous.

    Prostitution: Geylang- Red light area
  • Tip Rating:
  • Books and booklets that I read before visiting S'pore described it as amazingly clean and strict city under law. Clean it is, but only where more visitors travel. You can say a face make-up. To see the "other" side of S'pore, do visit Geylang area, especally in the evening. More specifically, Lorong 4,8,10,12,16,18 are complicated areas where u can see numerous prostitutes. The area is also gangsta- area.

    Prostitution: Geylang
  • Tip Rating:
  • Prostitution is illigal in Singapore but there are thousands of sex workers - both obvious and hidden. The obvious ones you can find in all the lors of Geylang .. there are hoards of them - coming from China, Thailand, Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Vietnam and other places.
    The Govt is usually looking the other way unless they are underage - or there is some fight or something.
    ALWAYS be protected. Prices range from 30 to 100 - you have to hackle.

    Prostitution: Saturated by working girls
  • Tip Rating:
  • Prositution is legal in Singapore, but I was thinking this is something you could deal with if you want and discreet enough if you're not interested (like done in Chijmes place).
    This was clearly not the case around orchard road / scotts road junction.

    I'm no more naive, after my "cultural alignement" in Kuala-Lumpur, and I had sometime excellent discussions with "discreet and fair working girls", in a mutual respect.

    But, coming back in orchard road after a 3 hours evening tour was a shock: I was stopped all 10-20 meters by chinese (?) very young girls, speaking only the minimum set of english words, provocant. Seating 15 minutes for relaxing and giving some calls was clearly an error.

    I'm used to be tolerant, with respect and fair when I am sought and after having declined some offers, but I felt verry irritated when I was stopped all 10 meters, loosing progressivly my supposed fairplay.

    Too much is too much and the day after, I put a badge on my shirt labelled as :

    >
    I want to be alone during the night.

    This made my walk better. A local friend, asked about, told me this is not so visible and agressive normaly. But during vacations + a lot of peoples coming here just before the olympic games in china, sex business opportunities have been well caught with a lot of temporary workers.
    Business is business?

    Prostitution: Fake Massage Palours
  • Tip Rating:
  • In Singapore, there are many massage palours. Be wary of these massage palours which provide "extra service".

    Some tell tale signs: The ladies are standing at the door, pulling your arm/hand and saying "massage? $20." The ladies are mostly from Thailand and China. These ladies will wear very sexy clothes that show the cleavage and their thighs by wearing mini skirt. Some usual places where such massage palours can be found: Orchard Towers, People's Park Centre, Geylang and other places.

    How to tell whether are they doing clean business? These are some things u must look out for. The ladies should be well dressed by wearing jeans/long pants or 3/4 pants. Their top should be just polo t-shirt or t-shirt. Some may have uniform.

    A place where u can be sure of: Pearl's Centre (beside chinatown OG. It is a orange n green building.)

    Prostitution: Singapore...the "Four Floors of Whores"
  • Tip Rating:
  • There is a place known to sailors as the Four Floors or Whores. It's world famous, but a total dump. Across from the Hilton on Orchard Street is a 4 level mall...i think it's called Orchard Towers. The bars are filled with overpriced and nasty Thai whores. Many of them are transvestites. Fun to poke fun at them, but not a good place to find after hours entertainment.

    Prostitution: employing a maid?
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you're staying in Singapore for long and think of employing a maid, a note of caution to watch over your house from time to time while you're at work. Because it is common to find the maids bring into homes their boyfriends in the absence of their employer!

    I can't help overhearing a funny conversation of a Singaporean in my train ride today. Apparently, she counted her oranges in the fridge and interrogated her maid how 20 oranges became 10 overnight! I'd say you can spot subtle changes in your house like these oranges too if you fear your maid had gone astray.

    Note that the penalty for changing maids more than 5 times would be that you would not be allowed to employ maids anymore!

    Prostitution: singapore - prostitutes 4 floores etc
    I'm a woman. I've been to 4 floors of whores. It's harmless and a good laugh.I want to beat the 'sailor' and all blokes who sleep with 'whores' who think they are somehow above the woman they sleep with. These girls are normal, nice , cool women who close their eyes and hold their breath and think you are just a paycheck and neither they nor I would sleep with you under 'normal' circumstances. The sailor who slagged them off is probably a stinky, diminutive litle prick who would NEVER have intercourse with women unless he pays. (FACT GUYS - IF YOU"VE GOTTA PAY, YOU'RE A LOSER - SAILOR OR OTHERWISE) I am incensed that he wrote about the girls as though THEY were somehow dirty and had the kind of diseases only people like HIM spread...eeeeurgh i can't begin to imgaine how rancid he is. I guess that's why he became a sailor...because woman wouldn't sleep with him unless he showed the green stuff - and i don't mean his saliva either, though am sure it's as bad as his breath. Poor guy. We all know what sailors prefer anyway....and it aint ladies. Why else would you put yourself away with a group of buff fellas for months on end?!!
