Everyone is concerned about the environment and wants to do his bit to save the earth. But what do you do if you run, say, a brothel? A Berlin one, Reuters reports, has decided to offer a discount to patrons who arrive on bicycles. Thomas Goetz, the owner of the ‘Maison d’envie’ brothel, says the recession has hit the industry hard.
As for the discount, he says “It’s good for business, it’s good for the environment — and it’s good for the girls.” Customers who arrive on bicycle or who can prove they took public transportation get a ¤5 discount from the usual ¤70 fee for 45-minute sessions, he told Reuters. “We have around 3-5 new customers coming in daily to take advantage of the discount,” he said, adding the green rebate has helped alleviate traffic and parking congestion in the neighborhood.
