Sex and the City: Amsterdam wants to close 33 brothels
Netherlands brothel owners are fighting the Amsterdam city council in court after a decision to close one-third of the sex businesses in the city.
The city council is demanding the closure of 33 of the city's brothels, claiming many of them are fronts for criminal activity. The prostitutes' union, which represents 20,000 sex workers in the city, claims that closing brothels will force women into illegal activity and a life on the street. Prostitution has been legal in the Netherlands for five years.
