young, close relative has become an "escort" WWYD?

[notreallymehere]

20 something low closeish relative has become an escort. She has been thinking about it for a while, tried it in London, stopped but now has gone back to it in her home town. She is with what appears to be reputable agency and seems to be making quite a lot of money. Lots of reviews now appearing on her webpage etc. She appears fully happy with her choice - she had a job before (working in a coffee bar) but says that the money is better with this (she has previously worked as a lap dancer). My question is what do I tell my friends/acquaintances if they ask about her. I've discussed this with some people when she first started in London and the reaction was very aggressive "well you should have stopped her" etc etc. (hence name change) Fact is that she is an adult and this is her choice and I cannot see how I can stop her - she is making a far bit of money at this and is very financially motivated. However she is part of the family and it is difficult to avoid the questions but many people are very judgemental (of me for somehow "allowing" this to happen).

you're probably right dittany.

Really dittany I would have said that marriage was the oldest oppression, first for woman and now the tables have changed and man are at every turn undermined and belittled, no wonder they seek a bit of no strings solace in the arms of someone that does not withold sex from them because they have the silent treatment for forgetting to take out last nights rubbish.

I have no idea Margaret for all I know you live in your glass house safe and secure and never leave, but what I am saying is as a 17 year old slapper I got myself into many situations that I have never been in for over 10 years of being a hooker, I am saying that rape and std's are not limited to hookers

Pretty much limited to hookers as a occupational hazard.

Shd....is there a handbook that comes with your job? How to justify selling sex?

1. Marriage is prostitution/oppression
2. Women are empowered
3. Better making money fucking random punters than working on a checkout.

No pretty much experience in the industry gives us all we need to know, nothing beats being there doing that to know that really goes on instead of relying on media, propaganda and massage figures to suit agendas.

Shd...absolute horseshit. You trot out the same crap as the next.

Come and tell us about the massaged statistics.

Sorry touched a nerve?, armchair critics quite often have that reaction.

touched what nerve? what could possibly come out of your mouth that had anything to do with my life?

I'm more interested in the massaged statistics and propaganda.

AZM

I am assuming you are a mum. How would you feel about your son/daughter..

1. finding out about how you made money when you were a prostitute ?

2. working as a prostitute themselves ?

Am not trying to create an argument wih you, just trying to understand. Because I really do not understand.

SNB, as an experienced woman you haven't really fallen for the line that the only reason men use prostitutes is because they have a harridan at home who doesn't appreciate him ...

have you ?

Really the most worthless scum on the planet? I personally reserve that for those that make other peoples lives miserable, those who think it is ok to take away children's innocence or those that use their wives/girlfriends as a punchbag, I will also reserve that one for drug pushers that destroy lives. Not perfectly ordinary law abiding citizens whose only crime is to pay for something they quite often are denied else where, so glad to see your priorities straight dittany, and while we are on the subject I have never in my hooking life had anyone of these gentlemen call me as a prostitute a 'fuckhole' they treat us with more respect that you can ever pretend to do.
I will defend the law abiding citizens of this country dittany because last time I looked buying my services was not illegal.

"and man are at every turn undermined and belittled"

Do people really believe this? Who belittles these men? Other men?

Shd....perhaps your punters aren't honest with you? If you dropped dead tomorrow do you think any of your punters would care about anything other than finding another prostitute?

Any man willing to pay for sex as opposed to find someone that is attracted to them on any level is not a man that I would spit on.

Oh I know so AF I have not always been and am not always a hooker and being a hooker is not all of who I am, I also have been guilty of what I have accused others, so again speaking yet again from experience I am well aware it does happen, married men are only a part of who sees hookers, there are widowed, separated, divorced, never married, the list goes on and on.......1 in 10 men of who you know are the scum of the planet as you so delicately put it

SNB...could you decipher that reply to me please.

I honesly cannot understand it.

And if one of my regular punters dropped dead tomorrow do you think that there is not another punter that would take his place?

that sums it up doesn' it, really

the utter soul-lessness of this business

people reaed as less than human

it works both ways I hink

punter/prostitute

both seen as pieces of mea or just another paying customer

very sad when something that should be as intimate and enjoyable as sex is involved

meat

my t key won't work unles I twat it very hard

Why should it be like any other industry?
The Tesco checkout girl would not care she would serve the next customer.
Neither party wants complications, they want sex we want the cash, intimate and enjoyable with punters is not mutually exclusive either.

Every day more woman take more abuse from men that profess to love them than hookers do from men that have no such pretence.

The last I remember a Tesco checkout person wasn't having sex with their customers.. I mean I know they now to Tesco direct, but I thought that was Tvs and stuff.
