Roxanne, don't you put on that red light
The information is indeed in the forum but very rarely covered. Yes, there is a street walker scene in Kyiv.
Dig through the forum to find the info or ask your closest seedy taxi driver.
[QUOTE=Debauchee; 1136710]I've been reading this forum for months, and have seen little if any mention of the streetwalker scene in Kiev. In a city of that size there must be some prostitutes who work directly through street solicitations, and I'm interested in where they usually hang out, the average quality, and how much the police harass them and their customers. I'm asking because I'm not a fan of smoky bars or discos (I don't drink or smoke tobacco) , and am too poor to afford many of the rates I've seen quoted for the women who ply their trade from the Web sites mentioned here (which don't seem like much of a bargain even compared to the US or Canada).
Also, I've read a lot of warnings on the Internet about the corrupt, brutal, racist nature of police in Ukraine (with some foreigners complaining of being asked for bribes from the authorities right after they stepped off the plane at Boryspil airport). As a fair-skinned Caucasian middle-aged US citizen of Western European ethnicity who travels alone, how concerned should I be about being targeted for police inquiries or bribes whilst hanging out on the streets of Kiev?

Oh we all love to hate someone don't we!
i am always amused by dumb ass english and americans trashing the french considering what barbarians we americans and english (well maybe the english aren't barbarians, just obnoxious). my experience with the french in france is people going out of their way to help a lost tourist. even had a bus driver turn his empty bus around and take me to the correct bus stop when he realized i was on the wrong one. yeah they are a little prickly about their language (have also seen a frenchman in cuba correct the pronounciation of the cuban tour guides french, and people snicker at an iberian airlines stewardess announcing things in french on the way from spain to france) but there are plenty of stupid american and british tourists that have been just as rude.
if you want to know why everyone considered france the most sophisticated and advanced culture in europe for a few hundred years, just go visit. us colonists here in the new world are dribbling morons culturally (just turn on fox tv) and the english still think the sun never sets on the empire they raped and pillaged. just like the french still can't get over the fact that they are not on top of the heap. something we will (or already are) experiencing here stateside.
face it, we are all cave men, willing to trade with other cave men unless we can steal from them and get away with it and have a primal need to feel superior to everyone else and fuck all the beautiful young girls we can.
now shall we get back to what we all agree on. the need to flee the women of our respective dumb
ass feminist cultures and visit more friendly climes for female companionship. examples of this in bangkok and jakarta can be seen in the attachments.
[quote=cruiser d; 1136892]being french (i assume) then you already know the french can be douches for no apparent reason other than cultural.
the whole world can't be wrong.
