>In the early 14th century, the proportion of married men in the adult population reached only 32% in Basel, 36% in Ypres and 38% in Freiburg. This gender imbalance therefore favored the legal and informal economy of prostitution.

And in Germany it was the BISHOPS who gave sanction to the economy of prostitution by introducing its levy into the law. That is the "Catholic Tradition" in actual living history: a club of pompous PIMPS in red and gold raiment, the daughters of the poor pressed into the service of their whore armies. Just as Christ intended!
