Zurich Opens First Sex Drive-In
There are lots of things you can get from a drive-through. Hamburgers. Burritos. Coffee. Money. Booze! If you’ve got a loyal Nordstrom rep, you could probably spend an entire day shopping without leaving your car.
And now, if you live in Switzerland, you can even get LAID in a drive-through! In an effort to make (legal) prostitution safer, the city of Zurich has decided to instal “sex boxes” where regulated paid sex can go down. Via The Huffington Post:
Zurich first revealed its intention to open the “sex boxes” in November after residents approved the plan in a referendum vote. The city diverted 2.1 million Swiss francs (more than $2.2 million) to the project.
Similar to a car wash, drivers must first pass a checkpoint, where they will negotiate the rate, before proceeding to one of the nine booths for some private time. Each sex drive-in is equipped with an alarm so workers can immediately notify authorities in case of emergency. Security guards and social workers will also be on hand.
The sex stalls are expected to be open daily from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. Women working at the drive-in will be required to pay for a permit and medical insurance, along with a nightly tax fee of five Swiss francs (about $5).
Of course, we at OBC don’t really need to resort to paying for booty, but hey, we appreciate the openness to sexuality that the European nation has goin’ on. Someday, America! Someday!
