Chinese authorities have broken up a prostitution ring, which involved women with nursing infants who breastfed their adult clients in exchange for money. Some 15 women have been arrested in Beijing and Hubei in connection with the scheme. Services cost as little as US$10 per week. One undercover reporter found a mother who’d breastfeed him for $160, or $240 if sex was included. Sadly, the woman said that she was more likely to earn repeat business if she offered sex along with nursing. She was quoted as saying that mothers who only provided breastfeeding services would only get regular customers if they offered sex. A 23-year-old mother said one website offered a weekly and monthly service, costing $6400 breastfeeding each month, more with sex.
