These are tough times for many people, but now you can do your part to save the environment while doing something else entirely.
Maison d’envie, a legal brothel in Berlin, is offering an “environmental discount” of 5 euros for customers who arrive by bike or can prove they used public transportation to get there.
That’s around $7, or half the price of tongue kissing at the brothel (yes, you have to pay extra for that). Rates at the brothel normally start at 30 euros for 15 minutes of sex and assorted naughtiness.
The brothel owners say they’re in walking distance of stations on both of Berlin’s major commuter rail lines, as well as a well-maintained bicycle path.
Brothel owner Thomas Goetz said the new promotion has put some bang back into his business. He told Reuters that up to 5 customers a day are taking advantage of the discount.
Numerous Berlin housewives are wondering why so many of their husbands have suddenly taken up bicycling.
