30 years ago it was.

 

[prometheus the supremo]

a legal prostitution district?

 

[kpad]

According to Wikipedia:

A red-light district is a neighbourhood where prostitution and other businesses in the sex industry flourish.

That's just screwy.

You said it, I didn't

 

[Bogtrotter]

Just wondering- where 'is' the most sinful section of the city?

 

[building babel]

King and Bay.

 

[Bogtrotter]

True, but does Toronto actually have a red light district anymore?

Well, not officially, but Jarvis and Carlton is a great place to find women of negotiable morals, as is Kingston Rd. from about Brimley to St. Clair.

 

[fiendishlibrarian]

Women of negotiable morals can be found anywhere. The only difference is in the formality, expense, and length of the transaction.

*ducks for inevitable criticism*

 

[andreapalladio]

Isn't there an old joke where a man asks a woman if she'll sleep with him for a million dollars, and she says of course, and then he asks if she would sleep with him for a dollar, and she gets all huffy and asks him what kind of woman he thinks she is, and responds that they just established that, and are now negotiating over price?

 

[cdl42]

You see, chidren, sometimes a man needs to be with a woman. But sometimes, when the lovin' is over, the woman just wants to talk and talk and talk and talk.

But a prostitute is someone who would love you
No matter who you are, or what you look like.
Yes, it's true, children.
That's not why you pay a prostitute,
No, you don't pay her to stay, you pay her to leave afterwards.

 

[ganjavih]

What's a prostitute?

Though Jarvis + Gerrard might be more of a Ground Zero for such stuff--at least for the "Hooker Harvey's" legend.

But on the whole, streetwalkers are yesteryear; if any "red light district" has been highlighted in recent months, it's the high-rises of Agincourt...
