Have name changed as I try not to link my location with my usual posting name.

Have just seen this on my Facebook feed from my local paper. So some dirty exploitative bastard wanting a naked cleaner warrants a jaunty little cartoon and some dodgy innuendo. Angry

There is a very high yuk factor. Whether it's exploitation I'm not entirely sure. Whoever applies for it is doing so in the full knowledge of what he is looking for and for which he's paying double what is the going rate for a cleaner.

I suppose someone might think she is comfortable being naked, what is going on in his head is his problem not hers.

Mind you I got told off by a proclaimed feminist for employing a cleaner at all as she thought it was disgusting I paid another woman to clean up behind me.

I don't know if most male cleaners are nude. Believe it or not, it's not an area of expertise for me. Grin

Either way though it's exploitation of a potentially vulnerable person for someone's sexual gratification. I doubt if the roles had been reversed then this would have been reported in the same "lighthearted" manner.

I don't see why this is considered sexist. It goes both ways. Most nude cleaners are male, arn't they?

yes. but I'd definitely do it for £20 an hour.
