I found this funny little Gem of a story and
thought I would
share it! The story supposedly took place during a
2001-2002
deployment!! I don’t rightly know how true it is,
but it sure
makes for one helluva Sea Story!!!
Perth prostitutes were reeling from exhaustion
following an
influx of United States sailors stressed from a
stint in a war
zone, a well-known madam said today.
Mary-Anne Kenworthy said she was forced to close
the doors
Of her famous Langtrees brothel for only the third
time ever
yesterday because her prostitutes were so worn out
they
could no longer provide a quality service.
When she realised the sex workers just couldn't
cope any
more she closed Langtrees doors for a day rather
than risk
the brothel's reputation.
"We're the biggest and the best, I'd rather
take nothing
than offer a poor service, " Ms Kenworthy
said.
Langtrees did a week's business in just three days
after
5500 American sailors disembarked in Fremantle on
Sunday,
many of them stressed from their encounter with
war, she
said.
Three US warships the aircraft carrier USS John C
Stennis,
the guided missile cruiser USS Port Royal and the
fast combat
support ship USS Bridge were returning from taking
part in
the war against terror.
"A lot of it was stres. They'd been in the
war zone,"
Ms Kenworthy said.
"And they were a lot more agitated sexually
because they'd
been at Sea too long.
"All the sex workers in Perth would have been
exhausted."
Ms Kenworthy said she had to close the doors when
she
realised some Sex workers were taking money when
they
were not up to the job.
"The girls were starting to refuse to have
sex but still
wanted money just for taking their clothes
off."
Ms Kenworthy said she wished the US sailors would
arrive
in smaller numbers.
"I just wish they could dribble-feed the
Yanks in, fly a
thousand off at a time," she said.
"We usually find the Yanks are hard work but
lots of fun,
this time they needed the company too."
Ms Kenworthy said the last time she closed the
brothel's
doors was on December 31, 1999 so the girls could
party.

I guess when the system is overworked and breaking down, one must resort to the old, time-tested manual hand method

This did happen. I was on the Stennis. It was actually in the local paper that the brothel had to close its doors. Too funny...
ReplyDeleteDidn't have that problem when the San Bernardino pulled into Brisbane in ummm... 74 (?date may be off), the sity set up a "dial-a-sailor" program. They came to collect us!
