Also a story in the DM

Now I'm not here to slate sex workers.

But men who use prostitutes are in my eyes abusers. I have read on here lots when men use prostitutes the advice is LTB.

Cannot believe the comments on instgram supporting lily. Her behaviour is disgusting.

No @Impulsesealer it's not my first post. You can name change on MN and I do this often. Because people for some reason search posts and then either accuse you of just joining or bring up what I said about childcare or tesco in a completely unrelated post Hmm if you have a problem with this post feel free to report to MN rather than make try hard snidely comments.

I find this story so gross. Yes she's an attention seeking twit in my opinion and I just don't get all the fawning on instgram over this as if she's done nothing wrong!

I have a friend who is a sex worker and insists she's fully happy with what she does and is in control. Sadly I also know she had a horrendous childhood and has also lost a child and is unable to do a 9-5 job due to depression and alcohol dependency. She earns a LOT of money and works little hours but still not an easy life and I feel is a product of what life has handed her. It's her way to survive.

And people using escorts surely don't believe they all had lovely childhoods and lives with pots of money and do this for fun? They must know they are paying very sad unhappy and depressed and broke people to do things they don't want to do. And to me that is abuse.

And lily Allen has abused her power and money to get into woman's knickers so how is she any better than a man who does this?

And are also sang about how she doesn't need to take her clothes off because she's got a brain so obviously thinks the people she paid to fuck are stupid. What a horrible woman she is.

I know it is their decision to do this for a living but how could she do this . I feel so bad about it . I can't even explain why it is so bad but it just feels abhorrent to me. I suppose it is because even though these things go on in life l really didn't expect it of her .

TatianaLarina · 02/09/2018 09:27

Seems really odd given that she could have picked up girls for free.

Twenty1 · 02/09/2018 09:30

As you say, no better than a man who exploits.

Twenty1 · 02/09/2018 09:32

Never took those refugees in herself either.

MorningsEleven · 02/09/2018 09:32

It's to promote her book that's coming out shortly

I wonder who might have "leaked" this to the Daily Maul Hmm

keyboardjellyfish · 02/09/2018 09:33

As a sex worker I'm not so much annoyed that she's slept with one but more that she wrote the lyric 'Don’t need to shake my ass for you
Cause I've got a brain' at the same time as sleeping with sex workers. Like, ok, so you'll insinuate we don't have brains whilst giving us money? Hmm

Aworldofmyown · 02/09/2018 09:37

Her Dad is Keith Allen, think that says alot!

MarklesMerkin · 02/09/2018 09:53

Cannot stand the attention seeking little twit and wouldn't be surprised if she's making it up just for the book! If this was someone else she'd soon be tweeting her opinion of it all and saying how disgusting and abusive it is.

MaryandMichael · 02/09/2018 09:57

No interest in her.
She can sleep with whoever she likes, for me.

sue51 · 02/09/2018 10:01

So humiliating for her children to deal with. For their sake she should stfu.

mydogisthebest · 02/09/2018 10:10

I cant stand the awful woman. I wish she would grow up and shut up. She should never have had children

rwalker · 02/09/2018 10:12

only to be expected people have lost interest in her needs something to shock and put herself back in spotlight very sad doubt it's true the woman craves attention .Makes a change from her going from one disaster to another offering her support grabbing headlines and the moving on to next good cause without as much as a backward glance. sad sad woman feel sorry for her kids.

HPLikecraft · 02/09/2018 10:14

In her Instagram post linked to above, Allen states that a newspaper was going to report the story, which is why she decided to break it first. It's not something she came out with out of the blue.

user1457017537 · 02/09/2018 10:16

I watched a documentary where Keith Allen moved in with a poor family and was very impressed. I watched another documentary on Lily Allen and thought she was an absolute pig, the one where she opened a vintage boutique with her sister. Not a bit surprised

Juells · 02/09/2018 10:16

I admire the ciswoman intersectional feminist complaining about swerfs and terfs. Totally.

RebeccaWrongDaily · 02/09/2018 10:17

I am not justifying this, but whoever said up there 'she must've had a fucked up childhood' she really did. Some of which I bore witness to (I used to know her dad in the late 80's early 90's) I imagine the 'girls' were about to sell their story, so she got in first with a woe is me.

IDontEatFriedTurtle · 02/09/2018 10:18

I don't really use Instagram but when it gets linked the comments seem to be full of idiots.

My mind isn't changed by this story.

Something about swerfs and terfs etc. Microagresssions are THE LITERAL WORST THING EVAH but paying a woman to rent her body is fine because it is sex positive.

IDontEatFriedTurtle · 02/09/2018 10:19

Also it's not a "leak" when you have published a book, it has probably already been reprinted thousands of time and seen by numerous people and you are hoping everyone and their uncle will read it.

NeffSaid · 02/09/2018 10:20

SleepFreeZone I knew her for a few years as a child and yes, I would consider the upbringing she had - at the time when I knew her, which as I say was only a few years - to be pretty messed up and unhappy. I guess she’s passing that onto the next generation now, as so often happens. Sad

She'd wrote about it in her book which is coming out on Sep 20th. Someone just pipped her to the post and and (allegedly) leaked something from the book.

NeffSaid · 02/09/2018 10:21

X post Rebecca. I knew her in the mid 90s. Guess it was a mess all along then.

Isn't it weird the way intersectional feminists include everyone apart from those horrible women who don't agree with them?

Mrbatmun · 02/09/2018 10:24

What an attention seeking bellend she is. Her poor children, I really thought once she had kids she might grow up a bit but obviously not. Remember when she moved to the country and was going to just be a SAHM and live an idllylic life with her children? She got bored of that pretty quick didn't she and now her two kids will have to hear about her sleeping with prostitutes or whatever else is in her book.

Oh and I'm sure all the pro-sexworker brigade will be out in force as well to tell Lily how empowered she would have made those prostitutes feel blah blah blah.

WilburIsSomePig · 02/09/2018 10:24

She's an embarrassment. Not because she paid sex workers to sleep with her, she's just an embarrassment, full stop.
