**QUEENS OF THE BAD SIDE OF TOWN — Some Streets Belong to Them** When midnight settles over the ugliest corners of the city, these women step out of the shadows like they own every cracked sidewalk, every flickering neon sign, and every filthy alleyway in sight. Dressed in dark leather, short skirts, fishnets, and impossibly high heels, they wait with the calm confidence of predators who know exactly what kind of fear they inspire. Men may think they are hunting for easy prey, but on these streets the balance of power shifted a long time ago, and even the pimps know better than to get too close. In the seedy glow of run-down bars, cheap motels, and smoke-filled nightclubs, these dangerous ladies of the night are not the ones in danger — they are the reason the whole neighborhood looks over its shoulder.
