BUT, the bordellos and bath-houses have disappeared, just not fitting into the type of story we are telling. I don't doubt that such things exist in Dale; but they don't fit into our retelling and are thus "off the map" (figuratively and literally).
What's wrong with a well-run bath-house? You don't need to add a prurient element to one.

Re: Cursing, Swearing and exclamations in Middle Earth
I do kinda wonder if humans know enough about the Valar to swear by them.
"Elbereth's armpits!"
"Who's Elbereth?"
"I dunno, some elven goddess or something..."
