    Prostitution: Most prevalent in London


    Male brothel, circa 1907

    Those pessimistic souls who declare with paradoxical relish that the nation's morals have never been worse should take time off to glance at the extent of Victorian English prostitution. Archenholtz talked of the 50,000 prostitutes in London, Marylebone alone having no less than 13,000 (such figures are generally thought to be exaggerated). The Kronhausens reckoned that the number of prostitutes in the London of Walter's days was around 80,000 (in a total London population of only about two million). If we add to this figure the estimated number of "semi" - or occasional prostitutes we find a figure of something like 100,000 - 150,000 women engaged in full-time or part-time prostitution at the height of the Victorian era in the London district alone!
