There has always been prostitution in Nepal. On a few occasions when I have gone for night out in crowed places in Kathmandu, away from residence aria and the like, with friends later at night. It has been obvious that things were going on. Once we went to a dancing bar which was very tame by western standards. The girls dancing were showing no bare flesh and were covered from neck to ankle and dancing in bollywood music, non-provocative fashion but it wasn't traditional Nepali dancing. It was full up with fat, loaded Nepali business men and you could sense what the place was a front for. I didn't like the place at all but it left me with the sense that there was plenty of that stuff going on amongst a certain ilk of seedy people of Kathmandu.I can see that prostitution is happening in thamel area to. I have tried walking into a massage parlor to look for decent massage. So I saw a group of girls sitting in the parlor waiting for their clients. From my point of view, I don’t think that they are professionally trained and their dressing is not too right. I came out of the place without a massage but later spoke to some guys, they told me that sometimes they are being offered 'extra' services and to make matters worst, there are many Chinese in thamel area as well. These Chinese are mainly businessmen (not from the big cities) with Chinese girls behaving too 'intimately' in the public places.
Let's hope our beloved place will not be so badly polluted...
