The younger, the better – paedophiliac wishes and prostitution

Published by Ella

(c) Mimi Some days ago I noticed an article on Facebook; to say it in detail, it was an article by Salome Balthus. Miss Balthus describes herself as a noble-escort and operates an agency in a big German city. It’s ok and she might have her reasons.
