Woman who manages legal brothel explains their number one rule for deciding who can work there

A manager of one of Europe's largest legal brothels has opened up about their number one rule for deciding who can work there.

Catherine De Noire says her background in psychology makes her different from your average 'pimp' who takes on women for sex work.

The PhD student, who claims to be 'the highest ranking person' in the company - besides the owners - told LADbible what the interview process for recruitment looks like.

Her shift - which sees her start at 7pm and finish at 6am - is made up of answering emails and reading reports, to interviewing potential workers.

But what Catherine says is unique to her brothel is that the clients, made up of married men and women, aren't the ones who make the decisions.

"At the beginning of the night, I have interviews with new women that want to work with us," she said.

"Like the philosophy of the interviews, it's not like I would give them a banana and tell them, like to 'show me how you make a b**w j*b'.

"This is not what we do. So we basically sit down and we have this philosophy to give almost everybody a chance.

"I never decide based on my personal preferences. It's like, basically everybody has a chance."

The manager said that the sex workers can be any shape or size, noting that they can pick and choose which client they work with, and what's off limits.

She continued: "The system that that we have, it's like quite different than the other clubs. So with us, the business is completely up to the girls.

"So they decide about the prices, they decide about the services. Because not every every girl does full-service sex work. So some of them, they specialised in like BDSM.

"We have a girl and she does, like exclusively, just a s*******g. Then we have girls that provide only, like lesbian shows.

"So they also decide about the services that that she wants to she wants to provide, also about the schedule.

"So we never tell them, 'Hey, you should come to work'.

"This is up to them, you know, and it's also up to them what type of the clients they will accept so they can refuse the client anytime. And that is the most important thing that we do."

Catherine says the top performing sex workers, who are aged from 21 to 60, earn around $50,000 (£40,000) a month.
