Ukraine/Kyiv is no longer on the top 10 list for prostitution in Europe, but it was at one time. Today from Europe, only Moscow, Netherlands, Germany and Spain make the world wide list. Thailand is number one.
Ukraine[edit]
Main article: Prostitution in Ukraine
Prostitution is illegal in the Ukraine, but is nevertheless widespread and largely ignored by the government. Sex tourism rose as the country attracted greater numbers of foreign tourists. Laws criminalizing organized prostitution and penalties for human trafficking have had little effect because many convicted traffickers often do not end up serving prison time.

K-dag,,, sometimes your writing is a little ambiguous.
Neither TomZ or I, called Kyiv the “the prostitution capital“!
Nobody (today) called pro shoppers “hookers” either. My personal opinion is that there isn’t much difference between hookers, pro shoppers, pro daters, and agency girls. If you deceive for money,,,, what are you?
Do we really want to start on the shopping sprees again?? In 2010 I took a girl on a shopping spree and spent some money! So what? She lost 20 lbs since I had seen her last, and woofed down a big dinner faster than I did. I helped a friend in need, I’m not embarrassed or ashamed of it at all. Would I do it again?? No,, don’t need to, she’s making good money right now.
K-dag: “Sex tourists like yourself, look for hookers ANYWHERE they landed.”
Nope! I look at,,, not for!! They can be quite entertaining, even in a public place. I had one bouncing her big boobies right in front of me while trying to use the wi fi in the lobby. It was mighty hard,,,,, to concentrate! lol
"
I had told her, that I didn’t want to travel that far after my long flight,,, then she suggested coming to Kyiv herself. I thought, it could be her way of testing me on my reasons for wanting to stay overnight in Kyiv,,, because let’s face it, most guys go there for the hookers. Letting her show up at the airport, and stay in the same hotel should have been proof positive that I wasn’t one of those sex tourists. "
I was not ambiguous, I got mixed up, it was you not TomZ but you. That was the perception form your comments.
TomZ: “You freakin' liar! Most guys do not go to Kyiv for the hookers.”
That is true since the price of pu$$y around here is around is dinner and a movie. Why travel 8 times zones for!

Hasn’t anyone else, had a girl talk about all of the sex tourists that come to Ukraine? They will say things like;,,, just because they flew to meet me they expect sex. Or, just because they gave me a gift they expect sex, and then all of the propositions of/for sex from old men.
Having/letting the girl come to Kyiv was my way of proving the stereotypes wrong.
LR:" Nobody (today) called pro shoppers “hookers” either. My personal opinion is that there isn’t much difference between hookers, pro shoppers, pro daters, and agency girls. If you deceive for money,,,, what are you?"
Take away the " deceiving for money,,," and they are not a marriage material.
Anyone can potentially be " deceiving for money" even a friend or loved one. How he / she responds is personal decision with lasting consequences.
"Do we really want to start on the shopping sprees again?? In 2010 I took a girl on a shopping spree and spent some money! So what?

I had done this and don't feel regret. I did even said " I be right back going to get more cash" and I did bough her what she wanted. $200 is a two weeks salary in Poltava but for me gone at a weekend happy hour. My current girlfriend haven't asked me for nothing. Question me about why I would send money. She gives me the long face when I payed for materials for a personal project ( sends me the pictures of her complete art work).
The difference between my lady and my previous ones, comes to one word, MATURITY. Don't be fooled by her age and education, always Czcheh that out.
TomZ; “If one wanted one they could find one locally.”
“Another lie by looneyRanger EXPOSED!”
While watching the news tonight,,,, they talked about the increasing number of prostitutes working in the Fox Valley. Spotting a hooker here is news worthy!!
The Valley is about 100 miles away.
"Hasn’t anyone else, had a girl talk about all of the sex tourists that come to Ukraine? They will say things like;,,, just because they flew to meet me they expect sex."
I had been in many other countries and the stereotype/ perception from most girls is as you mention. Something in her mind goes as " how am I going to react to his sexual hints or cues, why he is not give to me straight". Just because you got lucky doesn't make her a hooker. What kind of man thinks thinks this way. There is more than meets the eye.
Why would guys go to Ukraine, when they could find one locally?? Well,,, lets count the reasons!
To get away from their wife.
To go to a place where they won’t be recognized.
To go to a place where the law doesn’t care.
To find prettier ones.
To find a better price.
To find/locate them easier.
On my very first overseas trip to Moscow in 98, I saw more working girls in one night, than I had seen in the previous 30 some years. At the “””OLD””” Rosia Hotel,, they had four entrances,,, hookers at all four, especially the south main entrance. The hotel had a little bar and café,, more like a snack bar with vodka, on each corner on all floors of the hotel. The hotel had at least 12 floors!
Each night as the guys on the tour went to bed,,, you could hear the hookers walking down the hallway, knocking on everybody’s door. They would pay the attendants for the room numbers of the foreign men, and had paid the security guards to get in. Guys would go back down to the main bar to wait out the working girls.
I ate out every night with my girl there, and on one occasion, at the restaurant in another hotel,,, it was the same story. They had sofas for the working girls,,, and each one would try and catch your eye as you walked past. My girl could squeeze a hand pretty hard!
I’ve only stayed at two hotels in Kyiv, and guess what? Yes,,, working girls at both.
One night while calling home on Yahoo voice, I was sitting in the lobby noticing all of the German tourists. All middle aged men. I told my father that the hotel was full of Germans,,,, and 5 guys glance over at me. I went on to say that I felt bad about not knowing much German, it should be my 2nd language, not my 4th.
The following night,,, all of the Germans were down in the lobby again,, along with a half barrel of beer, which needed changing at least once. Some time after dusk,,, very pretty working girls would walk in, one at a time,,, about 5 to 10 minutes apart. They would walk in and take a guy by the hand,,, then head for the elevators. This went on for over two hours. The last guy, must have been 300 lbs + and could barely walk. The girl whispered something in his ear, followed by Da Da?? He burst out laughing with Yeah Yeah Yeah! The whole lobby burst out laughing with him.
Prostitution is everywhere in Kyiv, and the rest of the FSU. It’s allowed in the hotels, and some even have their own bordellos. I also heard stories about some boat or barge across the river from the Slavutich.
"A cutie might entice you on a expensive shopping spree because she got your pairs not the other way around. That doesn't make her a hooker, but it makes you an idiot!"
Kdumb - it's never happened with me. It's been tried and I just walk away.
I think guys that use prostitutes are guys like lr, who go for only one or two weeks, strike out with normal girls, then want to at least have something out of their trip so they pay for it with whores.
"Prostitution is everywhere in Kyiv, and the rest of the FSU. It’s allowed in the hotels, and some even have their own bordellos"
I saw that in Bulgaria
"TomZ,,, were you born yesterday??

LR this works if that individual knows the Russian/ Ukrainian. However, the locals will target any newcomer. The outcome of that varies from one to another. Yo can get evenly scammed with the dropped wallet scheme. ( don't pick up anything ). At a small towns people won't bother you.
For those that do not know, the dropped wallet scheme involves someone intentionally dropping a wallet to the ground and hoping that a "good Samaritan" will pick it up. When you bend over to pick it up, another person comes from behind and picks your pocket. One way to avoid this if you feel obligated to pick up the wallet is to lower your entire body down as you go to pick up the wallet and not to just lean over. That will move your pockets down near the ground making it more difficult for someone to pilfer your back side.
That is how it works locally. If it is different in other countries, the main thing is to ignore it and just wait to see who does anything. Pickpockets work in groups sometimes. If you have never heard of how some of them work their trade, then I guess you must not read the papers. It happens a lot on mass transportation.
The other flip side of picking up the wallet is that you would become a "scapegoat" and called to be a thief in order to pay a "bribe" to pay "hush money" to the police. In this case, the police are in on this scam. This does not happen in the USA. But elsewhere, where the security officials are corrupt, that scenario could happen. In some countries, NOBODY can be trusted from the top honcho down to the homeless bum.
Beemer,, it happened to an old forum member, dating back to before 2010. The person was referred to as “The Old Professor” in the post, and wore his hair back in a pony tail. Could be Barron555 or maybe even Durak?
This happened in Kyiv and he was semi mugged for his wallet.
