Street walkers and red light districts in Brisbane

[The dude]

I stumbled across this site: www.wikisexguide.com/wiki/Brisbane

Either this is bullshit or I'm missing something.

I haven't seen a street walker since maybe the early 2000s (I think around new farm). These were drug riddled things that I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole. But KPT, Dockside and the valley? The internet and the influx of Asians has totally disrupted the old model.

As for Caxton street, a red light district?

I call bullshit.

[tommy thumb]

I didn’t really read anything in that article that I could agree with.

[Brissypunter]

Alway heaps Kangaroo Point near the subway Late st night drug infested things u would not touch even if they paid u lol

[gpeck80]

Brunswick Street, going toward new farm park.

[blake_ly]

Late 90s early 00s along Brunswick St yes. Now? I haven't really seen one that seems to scream SW in their attire or demeanour, so not sure how you would tell?

[ecchi.gaijin]

I often see a SW at KPT, not sure if it's always the same girl. I drove past her once to get a closer look and nearly crashed the car trying to get away fast enough.

Kangaroo Point has cleaned up a lot since the early 2000s,there was shit loads of them at the subway back than.still the same old girls walking there today,it’s pretty sad to see this still goes on in Australia.i haven’t seen a sexy one once in the hole time of driving to work in 15yrs🤦*♂️

Randy it’s just not the street girls that are a sad sight. Shop girls that stick around year after year after year are just as sad. The smart ones work for a few years set themselves up and run. The stupid ones hang around telling themselves that this is the last year. And all they end up with is a couple of handbags some jewellery and holidays back home

[The dude]

Thanks for sharing, gentlemen.

There's an equivalent page for the Gold Coast. Whoever put this together doesn't know their geography. Apparently the hookers prowl around "New Farm" and Palm Beach.

I have a recollection of seeing WLs soliciting on the Gold Coast HW to dudes in their cars - hitch hiker style. I think maybe that could have been Palm Beach. This is maybe five years ago (it could be longer) the cops chased them out.

..... and a boyfriend who treats them like shit but promises to give them a visa.

..... and a boyfriend who treats them like shit but promises to give them a visa.

both sides can be guilty. Some MLs use their bf's just to get a visa or citizenship, then dump the guy afterwards

[gpeck80]

2007/2008 probably was its ending. Remember the streetwalker serial killer that focused on Women that plied their trade there? He was an ambulance worker.

[Brissypunter]

I remember back in the day cops would use female under covers as hookers to get the punters and newspaper would name and shame them before court like one of the Dean Bro back then go busted and shamed hHahahaha

[The Professor]

Maybe this should go in the After Report section.
"A friend of mine told me a story"... about a guy who picked up a streetwalker on the corner of Brunswick and Harcourt Street back in the day. Gave him a blowjob in the back of his car and she let him play with her pussy.She was stoned but swore her love for him.
Apparently the hardest part was trying to find somewhere quiet and secluded to go out of the eyes of the public and the cops.... but apparently the girls knew all the good spots.
Apparently back in the days the first question by the girls was - Are you a cop ? - because back in the day you had to identify yourself....or so I am told.
Bring back any memories boys ? - come on whose got the courage - any more stories of friends of yours?????

This may bring up some nostalgia. As a young guy having just moved to Brisbane, years ago, I recall seeing the SW or " Ladies of the Night" hanging about Brunswick Street and particularly at Harcourt.
An artist must have noticed the same and painted 2 traffic controllers with "Ladies of the Night" as the theme.
Check this link:

Times have moved on and the controller boxes have been repainted..

[Brissypunter]

Yeah poor old shop owner these days no protection from higher powers. Girls know they cant b manipulated like back then too i suppose, which of course is a good thing, no matter how much they piss us off sometimes they should always b safe.

Girls are def safer but I wouldn’t say they are safe. From talking to the girl iv seen over the years. they all have a few horror stiries. From getting ripped off from customers of bosses, all the way to being raped. Not saying it’s anything like the bad ol days but shit still happens

Apparently not uncommon to be raped in a few I'll not name. I've never understood how they might not scream. Most of us punters are keen to defend the girls

The little shops are the most dangerous for that. Getting ripped off is there own fault and should only happen the once

This one i can definetly confirm, one of my favorite past times when i was younger was going on what we called "the whore betting run", before we left we would put bets on how many street walkers we would see that night, one night sticks out in particular, the old hangout on brunswick around the laundromat there was a good looking bird dressed up just like what would have passed for a street walker, as we pulled up to the lights we saw a bloke walk up and start chatting to her. Off we go and on the way back up the street we see her and two uniforms taking notes in police notebooks with him in cuffs sitting against the wall

Ah..... good old days

But Hector ran Bubbles. There was nothing in kp back then. And diners would have been rolled into the carbon with a coke bottle. I can still remember Carmel. Looked like twiggy with tits to match

wow, i suspect we may know some similar people, though I haven't seen tony for a while, i was at his house for a bbq a couple of years back in the north side. Thought i'm no where near the 60s

[Brissypunter]

Yeah heard he lives Northside somewhere he must still have a finger or 2 in something lol

[migaloo69]

No Blake . i was anyway connected to them . , it turns out our family friend was going into partnership on a marble mine in Chillgoe in north qld it wanted to impress me with his money connections i suppose . so my father would come in a well . $50000 back in the early 70 s

The hooker run when we were bored was interesting. Another interesting exercise was to hang around the night owl there and see what walked in.
