Yes. The presence of brothels & strip clubs is a very reliable indicator of how financially, socially, and morally impoverished a nation/society is. Interest & participation in brothels & strip clubs is peaked typically around times of particular societal strife
>moral/cultural collapse normalising sexual commodification
>failure of education across decades creating low-/unskilled women
>creative/cultural bankruptcy creating space in men's lives to engage in sexual consumerism
Everything about the existence, use, and sustaining of brothels & strip clubs is a net-negative indicator of society's health.
