About Guaynabo

But serious, it’s rough out there. Pisses me off—some punters treat ‘em like trash, like they ain’t human. Had a mate, swore he fell for one, said she had eyes like “a melody trapped in silence”—straight outta “The Pianist,” I reckon. Got me thinkin’, these girls, they’re fightin’ their own war, hidin’ in plain sight. Survival, mate, pure and simple. “Play, play!”—like Szpilman bangin’ keys to eat.

Decency and democracy: the politics of prostitution in Ponce, Puerto Rico, 1890-1900.

The poor have been obliged to accept prostitution as a neighbor. Prostitution now resides within honor. Tired of invoking the law, which has refused to come to their aid, honor and decency .

So, I roll up to Plaza Las Delicias, right? Beautiful spot, all those colorful buildings and the iconic Parque de Bombas. I’m just soaking it all in, thinking, “This is the life.” But then, boom! My client, this local artist, decides to do an impromptu street performance. Like, dude, we didn’t plan for this!
