STARK images show life inside a seedy brothel in the Philippines capital of Manila - where heavily pregnant women made up some of the roughly 50 sex workers used by mainly foreign clients. Prostitutes as young as 17 lived in the the basic living quarters of the sex den and can be seen getting dressed-up before a busy night's work. These images, taken in the nineties, show the basic living quarters and washing facilities of the building where most of the women lived and worked. The prostitutes would tend to sleep until the late afternoon before getting up to spends hours getting themselves ready.
When they were chosen by a client they would change from an evening dress into something less formal, before leaving to go off to a hotel or to the client's house. Pregnant women were heavily desirable among potential customers and some young mothers had to bring their kids in to be looked after while they worked.
Earlier this month aerial photos showed the sprawling landscape of Manila's slums where the tiny streets are some of the most packed in the world. Cops in the Philippines have been making drunks to push ups in a bizarre effort to tackle street crime.
