It's not work. Work comes with rights and regulations.

What term would you use-thought everyone used the term sex worker now? Escort isn't really the same (as there are people who do the plus-one thing without sex, so I wouldn't tend to use that term).

You don’t have to give away specifics. Do you think you could do hospitality as in hotel reception staff, booking people in, and you get good perks yourself for board and travel for instance. Or something similar ?

The men want older women they can have a conversation and some pillow talk after with … 2/3 of the men I’ve seen in the last week have been between 28-32 good looking, lovely men, and one a lawyer another an engineer … each paid me £140 for an hour of my time.

It’s completely nuts I agree, I’m just sharing what I’ve experienced.

But you do get old codgers too … but it’s about gradually filtering out who you’d see again or regularly, and who not …

Thanks for the reply. I don't think it's nuts, plenty of older people are attractive. But I am a bit suprised since men do tend to put younger women as their ideal of attractiveness.

Re pillow talk: are younger women also not able to offer this? I'd imagine they probably could : maybe some of these men feel safer with an older woman if they aren't very experienced?

Do you find these clients tend to not be having much sex in their everyday lives? Or do they just want a different experience?

It's sexual exploitation. Consent can't be purchased

Show quote history

And yet here is OP, freely selling her Consent.

If it can be freely sold, it stands to reason then it can also be purchased.

Work is a physical or mental effort directed toward producing a result or achieving a purpose according to google. There appears to be effort and a result, so its work.

Youd believe that if the recent spate of MN threads were all you had to go on. Most women are forced into prostitution by poverty or trauma, and as a result exploited by men. Men who don’t give a shit but see a body for sale.

I don’t think you could find any woman in prostitution who has not ended up there as a result of trauma and/or poverty. That’s not a freely made choice.

Show quote history

In the case of poverty at least, the same is true of most of us. We'd be unable to pay the bills without our jobs, so the real reason we go into our chosen vocations is to avoid penury, it's just a bonus if it also happens to be something you actively want to do. Prostitution is no different in that respect.

Well done on the weight loss. You look great.
