Philip, I forgot to translate.

In the poster of the men on the left, the text reads:

"1 of 8 men has at one time or another paid for sex. It is a crime to buy 
sex."

That, combined with the poster from the clothing store, I thought, was
a nice contrast. Sometimes text is an important part of an image.

These are very heart-warming words. My thanks.
