But Auckland Prostitutes Collective head Kate Dickie was sceptical of suggestions that decriminalisation of the industry had led to aggressive competition on the streets. "Charging less does not mean more work. It just means you work harder for the same money."

Can Someone who speaks english translate that for me?

I think it means: they do the same amount of degrading work for less money.

"Charging less does not mean more work. It just means you work harder for the same money."

If a prostitute charges $40 for a BJ and can serve up as many as 36 of them in a 6 hour period, she potentially makes $1440 in a 6-hour period of time.

36 customers X $40 = $1440

If another prostitute charges only $20 for a BJ and also works a "6-hour shift," she must serve twice as many customers per hour in order to make the same money.

72 customers X $20 = $1440

The second prostitute has worked harder for the same money.
