false <![CDATA[Brothel: Mustang Ranch and Its Women]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171475032m/101027.jpg 101027 4 A journey into a fascinating subculture, Alexa Albert's exploration of Nevada's infamous cathouses began as a public-health study into the safe-sex practices of these legal working girls and the effectiveness of condom requirements in preventing sexually transmitted diseases. It took her three years to gain access to the brothels, and when her project was eventually approved by the head of the Nevada Brothel Association, she was surprised to be invited to stay at Mustang Ranch, among the women of the brothel, for the duration of her research. She learned that despite the legalization of prostitution in several counties of Nevada, the working girls still faced restrictive local ordinances and work regulations that kept them virtual prisoners inside the brothel compound. Outside, they encountered the same social stigma that has always haunted sex workers. In her compassionate, engaging first book, Albert answers all the questions you might ever have about prostitutes, providing a rich and nuanced depiction of a largely hidden world. <I>--Regina Marler</I> 293915 2001 Brothel: Mustang Ranch and Its Women total:385|5:52|4:174|3:130|2:27|1:2| 385 1402 510 83 3 2 false true Sun Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2001 Fri Jan 04 10:59:48 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 04 11:15:12 -0800 2008 I was still in high school so i admit i was looking for a book to fuel a pervy fantasy.
