DARWIN'S prostitutes and local ladies have been busy trying to keep pace with the swell of cute, horny US seamen on our shores.
But they must be more than capable because at least one chemist is reporting low condom stocks and a number of Navy blokes asking about Viagra.
USS Peleliu and USS Pearl Harbor have docked at Fort Hill Wharf and unleashed hundreds of young, well-cut and hot-to-trot sailors.
Ship rules mean no sex on board - beyond what's on offer in a magazine. Michelle Love, who operates Blondies in Darwin, said her 30 girls had been kept busy servicing the Yankees. But she said the increase in US clients had been offset by a temporary slide of local customers - suspected of either being jealous or considerate.
"Most of the local boys don't even call when the boats are in town. They probably think the girls are busy and worn out or they may get their noses out of joint," she said.
Ms Love said the US boys were never any problems - "they treat the girls like gold".
She said the only possible issue was competition from the amateurs.
"Every horny woman comes out of the woodwork," she said. "But there's enough to go around."
Taxi drivers are also enjoying a business boom. They've reported dropping off lusty groups at hotels who use rooms for short periods.
A Darwin driver delivered two ladies for a rendezvous with Navy sorts yesterday.
"One told me, 'Oh honey, I might call you later to pick me up again - I got a couple of jobs'," the driver said. "She said she can make up to $4000 a day because she's so busy."
A chemist assistant in Darwin's CBD reported a spike in condom sales yesterday.

Somewhere at Treasury, someone is working up a proposal that if we bring all the boys home for liberty, we’ll boost the economy big time. Talk about a stimulus!
Since the first army and navy was formed, this has been going on. Or so I ‘ve heard, never having been myself. [snicker]
Someone should explain to the author that Navy officers and sailors aren’t the same thing.
With the typical journalists level of knowledge of the military, they’re lucky she’s not talking about soldiers in boats.
I wonder how the story will read after repeal of DADT?
“Every horny woman comes out of the woodwork,” she said.
Hmmmmmm, I don’t quite know what to make of that. Hahahaha. Maybe if you are at sea long enough they all look good. Chuckle, chuckle, snort, snort.
“Ms Love said the US boys were never any problems - “they treat the girls like gold”.”
It’s not that the Yanks treat the Aussie hookers so well. It’s that they treat them so much better than the Aussie men do.
In Australia, women have their uses, but an Aussie male would much rather head down to the pub for a pint a “punchup” with his mates, than hang around women.
American men are the only water in that emotional desert.
Charming.
At 1st I thought this was a story on how US “seamen” (no pun?) are dying in droves because of STDs.
“Darwin’s prostitutes...”
Hence, the Darwin Awards?
Guess I was wrong.
Slander and calumny against the sailors of the United States Navy . Probably originated and disseminated to deceive our Australian cousins by some POMy Poofter boss-tawd.

“Or so I ‘ve heard, never having been myself. [snicker]”
I agree. Why would anyone buy it?!?! Obviously, many do, but the logic escapes me. One of those great unanswered mysteries of life (for me at least).
I am sure glad Seamen was spelled correctly for this article.
“American men are the only water in that emotional desert.”
Just to let you know I appreciate a well turned phrase.
Port call in Oz. Oh, hell...
Snap out of it, sailor!

Do they give out Darwin awards?
“....ignore the Aussie dudes.”
Indeed, if you have an appetite for “fishing”, Australia is like have your own barrel to yourself. It’s hardly challenging, when the competition doesn’t even know how to bait a hook properly.
sometimes I think AIDS has a point.
too bad marriage vows mean so little these days
