    Bella, I never said one person was better than another because they had a 9 to 5 as opposed to being an escort. Second, please don't extrapolate your situation into an excuse for all escorts far and wide. As I said previously, Peggygee offered girls help if they were interested in legit jobs and had a grand total of ZERO takers. This is why I hold to my belief that most escorts, not all, chose that profession because they are lazy and want easy money. And how could you really blame me or anyone else for having that opinion... I mean no takers whatsoever on legit jobs? None?

    Lastly, I never said anything about escorts or transsexuals in general not contributing to society, so I'm not sure where you got that. I personally know two transsexuals who contribute to society via payroll taxes and so on, but of course there are a number of ways to contribute to society beyond paying taxes. I'm sure there are escorts who contribute in those ways, but I don't know them personally... Maybe you do. But as I never claimed they didn't contribute to society to begin with, I fail to see how I'm being callous.

    Perhaps you should have saved those coins and contribute to your own household instead. Not knocking you if you want to give money away which you evidently don't have to spare but don't try and make it out to be some sort of Gandhi-like act to donate money for used panties.

    I do contribute to a kid in a developing country and thanks to your comment above I think I'll throw some to a kid in Rwanda too. Now you should feel great about that because you just made a difference in the life of an under-priviledged kid. And tell you what, if you send me your address I'll get them to ship you the fridge magnet

    Are they not escorts because they chose to be? Please explain if you're under some other impression.

    I guess I wasn't here for that, but I would have taken her up on her offer if it was feasible. I mean I won't work for $8 an hour, but within reason I would certainly take a day job.

    It could have been someone else who said it, I'd have to go back and check the thread, but you certainly seemed to mirror the sentiment. If I was wrong, I apologize, but even still, there are those who do have that opinion so my reply still goes out to them.

    I don't know why anyone would argue with the payment. I wouldn't go into Macy's and say "Yeah, I'm only going to pay $5 for this T-shirt because I don't really like red, but I still want to wear it." However, I would argue if there was an agreed upon price and then there was a price change after the deed was done.

    I'm not saying that everyone that turns tricks don't have better choices but sometimes choosing the lesser of two evils isn't much of a choice. I can appreciate that some people don't have all the tools at certain times and as the saying goes 'desperate times call for desperate measures'. Which is why I say I can understand it being looked at as a temporary means of survival with the ultimate objective being to get the fuck out!

    WTF? Well, excuse me for stating my opinion. I know I'm not Gandhi. I'm just an old perv who likes reading nice words from attractive young ladies. And just for the record, I've never received anyone's dirty underwear. I've got fetishes, sure, but I do draw the line at that. And of course I'll send you my address so I can collect my reward. Just check your pms.


    I want to make you gasp and sigh!

    LONGWINDED POST ALERT!!!

    Most escort did not enter the skin trade because there were no local job opportunities and they didn't have skills, and for anyone to pretend otherwise is an insult. Many people, countless people, have lived in shit towns working shit jobs to pay for an education to get them out of the shit town and shit job. I'd have attained everything I have today years earlier if I'd chosen to become a coke dealer, but instead like countless people across the country and around the world, I took on college loans and worked various shit jobs to make ends meet, then entered the workforce as a wage slave before progressing to where I am today. Many of the girls you're showing sympathy for simply want everything handed to them, and right now. Most never entered the workforce because of the fast money they could make escorting or doing porn, not because they were torn between the devil and the deep blue sea. Sure, some of them may have entered porn or escorting because of unique circumstances, but let's not pretend this applies to every escort here, or even most of them. I'm not trying to kick their backs in, but several girls have laughed at guys here bragging about how much more money they made and how much less time it took for them to make it, so if I was doing that I wouldn't feel bad. In most cases, they're just fucking lazy, getting out of bed in the morning only to get back into bed to get paid that $200 for an hour's "work". Does that sound as hard as what you do for a living?

    Anyway, how long could a person do something before you would no longer consider it a temporary vocation? I ask because, if you hang around long enough, you'll see many temps go permanent here. I know of one who has been escorting for at least fifteen years now but still claims she's only doing it temporarily to save up money to open a bakery. That bakery will never open, because she spends all of her money on designer bullshit, cosmetics and so on. As she ages, her attractiveness will diminish, her clients will stop coming, and she'll end up flat broke on the streets whoring. This is not an uncommon end. There are exceptions, but what I'm saying is not a rare situation.
