BAWD

A bawd is an old-fashioned term for a person, usually a woman, who finds customers for a prostitute. They are also known as a madam. This term is often associated with illegal and immoral activities.

One example of a bawd is a woman who runs a brothel and arranges for clients to meet with prostitutes. Another example is a woman who works on the streets to find customers for prostitutes.

For instance, in the 19th century, bawds were common in cities where prostitution was prevalent. They would often operate out of disorderly houses, which were places where prostitutes lived and worked. Bawds would advertise the services of the prostitutes and arrange for clients to meet with them.

Today, the term bawd is considered outdated and offensive. It is important to use respectful language when referring to people who work in the sex industry.

The examples illustrate how a bawd would find customers for prostitutes. They would often operate in illegal and immoral ways, such as running a brothel or working on the streets. The examples also show how the term is associated with the historical context of prostitution in the 19th century.
