What are your thoughts on the red light district. Everyone just talks about it so casually and there r so many yt vid of men vlogging their time there. It honestly kinda icky. The way people (men) talk about the women who work there, which I'm sure is not a choice they chose happily.

Hmm how I feel about the red light district is perfectly articulated in the tv show Killing Eve, season 2, episode 4…

For those who don’t watch the show, the female assassin dresses up as a prostitute, goes to the red light district, and waits for a John. When he makes his move, she attacks.

She hangs him upside down and cuts down his torso, disemboweling him, and recreating a painting she saw earlier in the season and grew fond of: “The Corpses of the De Witt Brothers” by Dutch artist Jan de Baen.

It would be that, while journeying through the Rijksmuseum, the picture I took the second most photos of was The Corpses of the De Witt Brothers, attributed to Jan de Baen. I remembered it well from my first visit so many years ago. It does tend to stick in the mind and refuse to be dug out.

Instead of including that picture, here's one of a bust of Johan de Witt before all that awful stuff happened to him.

The Corpses of the De Witt Brothers - Jan de Baen, 1675.

Pictured below are two other views of their rather icky end. Below that are what they looked like before having their wigs split.

The De Witt brothers were popular figures in 17th century Dutch politics until one day they were not so popular with an angry mob. The mob wasn't entirely wrong: they blamed the De Witts for the Dutch Republic getting its ass kicked in a war against the French. Tried for treason, Cornelius de Witt was sentenced to exile and his brother Johan was made to quit his cabinet post in the government. The crowd outside thought this was a slap on the wrist and expressed their displeasure promptly. The mob lynched them and tore the brothers to shreds. Jan de Baen did not miss the opportunity to show a good spur of the moment anatomizing when he had the chance.
