I think it would be fun to share the terms we have picked up over the years. I Would love to hear some from other English speaking countries and also non-English (especially Spanish) with their English translations and any background to explain them if not obvious.

I’ll start off. These are USA terms, but possibly used in other english speaking places as well:

Ladies of the evening
Ladies of easy virtue
Women of negotiable affection
Working girl(s)
Turned out (not so sure about this one)
On the corner / stroll

I’m sure at least some of you keep your ears out for interesting terms for a subject so near and dear to our hearts…Let’s hear ‘em.
