Analysis of prostitution pricing throughout the world

[flamejob]

An interesting article examining the price of prostitution throughout the world based on economic and other factors, including:

* supply/demand
* appearance (boob size, hair colour, hair length, build,
* service (e.g. bbbj v cbj, cim, anal, S&M, group etc)
* location

It also discusses use of technology, e.g. apps designed to locate prostitutes in certain areas and sites that maintain details of bad punters.
