"I'm so scared for my health," said a sex worker in Tijuana, "I don't know if the person I'm with has the disease or not."
Tijuana, Mexico's famed red-light district, called Zona Norte, sits a stone's throw from the US-Mexico border. Called Coahuila, the area's main strip, is normally teeming with a frenetic action bathed in neon light.
Women in short dresses and the highest of high heels stand along the sidewalks, beckoning groups of men to spend some time and money with them. Massive strip clubs, some with hotels attached, act as de facto brothels.
Many specifically cater to the thousands of Americans who cross the border from California each month, looking for a kind of fun that can't be found legally in the United States.
Called Zona Norte, and it sits a stone's throw from the US-Mexico border. Just a thought.
