How do you feel about prostitution?

[BillieH]

Hello everyone, I have name changed for this(no sinister reason) but i do post on here from time to time.

Anyway, I would love to know what your thoughts are on prostitution. I don't mean political views and I dont really want to get into a discussion on whether girls are trafficked, pimped, druggies. Just what you think as a whole.

I am talking about girls who willing become escorts or work in massage parlours under the guise of 'masseuses' when really they provide extras.

What do you think of men who see them? Are that losers, sad and lonely, 'sex addicts'or what? Would you think your dp/dh was cheating if he saw a prostitute.

I ask just out of curiosity, I do not think my dp has ever visited a prostitute! Also, apparently 1 in 10 men see prostitutes. Do you agree with this. If this is true what hope do we all have eh?

My take is that i belive some girls use their looks to earn money an 'easy' way. By easy, I mean that they do not have to train for yrs to get a decent paid job, or they do not have to work 9 to 5 in an office when they can earn a wks wages in a day.

I have asked my own dp and he beleives that there is something missing from a relationship if a man sees a prostitute.Obviously its different with a single man. He also thinks that some men have issues sexually with their wives/partners and are inhibited. Therefore, that is why they pay for sex acts that they can't ask for at home. These are exactly my thoughts.Anyone agree or disagree?

I'd like your thoughts or experiences!

Posey, is not rolling over dying or ignoring your charming repeated calls of us leaving this thread and Mumsnet snippy? Maybe you cannot quite handle a lively thread without everyone using your kind of favourite language?

Posie heard of irony?

Why do you want to confine prostitutes to ghettos?

I'm beginning to get worried about all these prossies, spending their evenings on Mumsnet instead of fucking, sucking and licking.

Aren't their pimps going to get mad and beat them?

I work office hours, think about it when is it easiest for men to slip out?

Pimps?? I work for myself I answer to myself, I don't turn to a husband and ask for 'pin money'

So as a mummy, when your little girl grows up and says "I want to be a prostitute", what will your reaction be?

is not prostitution part of porn?..they both objectify women..they both pay women for sex..just one is more personal and one is on DVD and will make even more money..

Well said, Dittany!

I'm PROUD to be a Punterphobe too!

What's mumsnet's obsession with prostitution? There aren't long, repeated threads on Pn about Mn, I can assure you. If you talk about us here, we'll come and join in; why do you want to talk about us behind our backs?

EA You forgot the The Guild of Harlots. Again I am typing this v e r y s l o w l y in the vague hope that you can digest some very simple logic. Being a contented prostitute does not exclude one from motherhood and/or form non prostitution sites.

Btw it?s interesting that you try to address/out people other than their nic. What next, try to out women to the papers, push faeces or a bit of petrol through their letter boxes?

OFFS... So you are a collective? I don't see any MNters on punternet.

No answer to your question EA, shocker!! None of the punternet folk are answering any questions...

No, I'm an indie; I'm not part of any collective.

(Though I used to work for Women's Aid, if that counts?)

I'm talking to you to your face love...and ask the OP..i suppose maybe its because we are women?..some of us may have had partners who have used prossies?..who knows..I think its a female thing..no matter how you try to seperate us some men few us as the same...

It's lovely to see you dittany.

There's more to prostitution than punternet, dittany.

How can it be propaganda to say 'I, personally, am happy with my decision'?

You haven't told me who I am, Posie. I'm dying to know. I'd like to find myself.

What question? I don't have a daughter, as EA should know if she's been hunting me all over t'interweb.

(Thought that kind of thing was rather discouraged here, btw? Or don't normal manners extend to whores?)

No Posie they're not, perhaps we should form a group and chase the prossies out! :)

Pimps?? I work for myself I answer to myself, I don't turn to a husband and ask for 'pin money'

There it is in a nutshell.
