Prostitute says she does wives a favour!

She controversially admits that while many have partners, she believes she's actually doing their marriages a favour.

AIBU to think that actually no, you aren't doing anyone a favour and are actually helping to destroying families?

No one is forcing men to pay for sex. She isn't destroying anything. Agree with PP that it's supply and demand.

Dinodigger · 27/01/2023 22:07

She just seems so smug about it!

Supply and demand.

Personally I’d prefer my dh was involved in this sort of stuff rather than an intense relationship with a colleague. if it’s a payg type approach, it’s a much more clinical option.

It’s much nicer for blokes to financially coerce a woman into having sex with them, eh?

I fucking give up with some women.

Why are women not allowed to hate other women who take away their husbands? It's really odd.Some kind of taboo.

Women don't "take away" husbands. The husbands choose to cheat.

jetadore · 27/01/2023 22:14

Yeh that’s it, blame the woman. She’s kidnapping the dickheads and making them pay for sex at gun point.

lucya66 · 27/01/2023 22:14

i do think it happens a lot. More than we generally expect.

Mum2jenny · 27/01/2023 22:14

Exactly, it’s men who chose to cheat!

Msgrieves · 27/01/2023 22:14

True, the women are complicit tho. They are not innocent bystanders.

Zanatdy · 27/01/2023 22:15

depends what’s classed as a favour. If you go on the relationships board there’s many relationships where the woman wants to live without sex but keep the marriage together, presumably for the kids. So if she doesn’t want her DH to leave and he’s not happy in a sex less marriage, then maybe she thinks she is doing them a favour. Some women are happy for their DH to get sex elsewhere as long as it’s not an affair and paying for sex is the safest way for that I guess

butterfliedtwo · 27/01/2023 22:15

Men aren't taken away or stolen. The ones that go go willingly, often ruled by their cocks. Men have agency. They're not lured away by bewitching sirens.

Felix01 · 27/01/2023 22:15

How is a sex worker supposed to know if a man is single or not?

Because the tired trope of the spiteful woman who stole someone's husband has been allowing men who cheat to avoid taking ownership of their behaviour for far too long

totally quoted the wrong post sorry @Msgrieves

Mum2jenny · 27/01/2023 22:17

The women chose their options, but if they know what they are doing, why do everyone else care? It must be their choice, surely?

She didn’t take away their husbands. Their husbands chose to go and pay for sex.

Sex workers don't care if someone is single. They just just want money. They are literally part of the problem. Nobody will say that though, because they are empowered ladies, making their own choices.

Mum2jenny · 27/01/2023 22:21

I tend to blame the paying partnered punters

I would blame a sex worker for being involved with a married man. It's purely transactional, they don't want your husband- so not the same as an affair IMO. But it's still a bit crass to claim you're doing the wife a favour. She deserves criticism for that.

5128gap · 27/01/2023 22:24

She is starting from a false presumption: that the most important thing for a woman is to hang on to a man.
No matter how sleezy, how morally bankrupt, no matter what type of sex he feels entitled to, she is a woman who believes any man is better than no man.
With this as her start point, she believes she is helping women keep this most important of things (because otherwise he would leave in order to work his way through the queue of women just waiting to indulge his fantasies for free) so no doubt genuinely believes she is helping.
I don't judge her. She has internalised some deeply harmful attitudes.

huniepop · 27/01/2023 22:25

Would not blame a sex worker!*

Ridiculous statement imo. It's like saying if I take the sweets away, my obese child won't carry on eating. Except they will, they'll eat something else, or go buy more sweets with their pocket money. If a man wants to cheat, he will find a way. Blaming women for capitalising on men's inability to think other than with their dicks is silly. Many women would offer it for free, why shouldn't a sex worker make money? He'd do it with someone else regardless!

Leaving aside the fact a lot of sex workers are victims of trafficking, of course.

How many prostitutes do you know? Not “sex workers” as in strippers or cam girls but actual prostitutes? I’ve worked with hundreds over the years and I can think of possibly 3 who were not being pimped out, on drugs, desperately supporting a child/ family member or had quite severe mental health issues. These are women right across the board from homeless women to high end agency girls.

lifeinthehills · 27/01/2023 22:31

Well, if my husband gets it with a prostitute even once, he can get all of it from a prostitute forever more. He won't come near me again.

The bigger problem is men who are happy to rent womens bodies for their own pleasure. If they didn't do it, it wouldn't be profitable to traffic vulnerable women and girls into sex slavery and loads would be saved from that fate.
