Pleasure house

A pleasure house is an establishment in Essos similar to a brothel. Instead of prostitutes that have chosen this life as a means to survive, pleasure houses usually employ bedslaves, slaves trained in the "arts of love" and forced to perform sexual acts for the gain of their owners.
The Free City of Lys is particularly known for its pleasure houses, which cater to every taste. The city of Yunkai in Slaver's Bay is one of the main suppliers of bedslaves for pleasure houses. Braavos makes use of brothels instead of pleasure houses, since slavery is illegal in that city.
