    lol. Naive.

    btw, who's the dumb prince who hire big tits and big dicked girls anyway.

    Escort and pornstar have different criteria.

    who's more popular? definitely pornstar.
    who's making more money? definitely escort

    When I started this profession, i really wanted to find out who is the most financially successful escort in the modern world.

    I finally found her.

    I was naive at the time. I thought she will look like Pamela Anderson with big tits and fake blonde hair.

    I was completely wrong. She is a next door type of girl, 5.7, brunette, B cups (not even C or D cups) with an excellent social skills and high IQ, earning roughly a million dollars during her prime time, attractive and fun to be with nevertheless.

    that's typical a high end escort look like.

    those men hire her because she is smart, attractive but not "embarrassing". Discretion is part of escorting world.

    Those men will be embarrassed being seen by a porn star whose tits are bigger than their head.

    Again, you're focusing on material differences, i.e. the wealth of Dubai versus the poverty of North Korea, rather than the underlying structure of autocracy, oppression, and exploitation. Likewise, your characterization of UAE working conditions as "less than ideal" is perhaps the understatement of the year, and you are incorrect that workers in Dubai can simply "resign and go home" any time they want, as that requires their employer relinquishing their passport and the worker relinquishing any claim to unpaid back wages, wages which the worker would likely need to get home in the first place.

    All of this shit has been well documented. Just because Western tourists can have a nice vacation there doesn't mean there isn't some truly hellish stuff going on behind the glitz and gleam.

    2) When I get to Dubai I can stay in any hotel I want -something I cannot do in North Korea where a) there aren't that many hotels, and b) foreign tourists are assigned a specific hotel.

    3) I am free to travel around Dubai whenever I want, by foot, by car, by taxi, by subway, presumably by donkey, horse or camel but I can't confirm the latter three. I am not free to travel around North Korea and will be escorted wherever I want to go, having been given permission to go which in many cases is not given.

    4) I can go to Dubai and shop till I drop; I can go to Dubai and not shop at all. I am not sure if there are shops in North Korea.

    5) There are night clubs in Dubai, I don't believe there are any in North Korea.

    6) Ask someone from the Philippines if they would like to work in Dubai and I reckon 80 out of 100 would say yes. According to the Consul General of the Philippines in Dubai:

    "...the number of applications for passport renewals and similar activity at the consulate in Dubai itself has increased by about 200 per cent since December 2012.
    “These are signs that the employment opportunity in the UAE and especially in Dubai is growing. There is a demand for more manpower and, fortunately, our nationals are the ones who are benefited,” he says.
    The UAE, he says, has become the most preferred country in the GCC and the Middle East for Philippines nationals travelling abroad for employment.
    “This country provides a safe and vibrant lifestyle which is unique,” he says.
    http://www.emirates247.com/news/emir...06-03-1.508899

    -The opportunities for foreign workers in North Korea is =0.

    Of the Filipino transexuals I know, 100% would love to visit Dubai for a holiday.

    7) Working conditions in the UAE and in Dubai are not ideal, living conditions in the UAE and Dubai are not ideal, but the key point is that the Filipinos, the Indians and Pakistanis, the Bangadeshi and Sri Lankan and Nepalese workers will trade creature comforts for a wage that supports the family back home -that is the bottom line. There can be no comparison with North Korea because there are no comparable foreign working communities there.
    -I once worked a low-wage job in the rural South of France and was given living quarters with no running water or toilet. Water was collected from a well in the boss's yard across the way, the fields were my toilet. I did not complain. I was broke and glad for the work.

    7) Slavery does not offer its workers any rights, least of all the right to resign from a job and 'go home'. As far as I know, most foreign workers in the UAE and Dubai can resign and go home any time they want, so the comparison with slavery is wrong.

    Dubai is not heaven on earth, neither is North Korea; are both autocracies? Yes in their own way, with degrees of flexibility for people who behave themselves. If you know Muslims do not drink alcohol then adapt, and don't expect to have wine with your meals, or retire to a lounge for whisky and cigars, even though that can be done. Comparing the UAE and Dubai to life in Europe or North America is unfair, neither country even pretends to be similar. As long as you know what to expect in either Dubai or North Korea you need not be outraged or surprised, if neither place holds any interest for you, then don't go. I know one transgendered Filipino who will not set foot in Australia, for obvious reasons.
    You're being a little disingenous but I will only address the comment about Filipino workers going to Dubai - or any other country for that matter - for work. it's clear to me that you haven't spent a lot of time in the Philippines around poor people or you'd understand perfectly well WHY they go to Dubai. The reasons are simple: the chance to earn money (somewhere between USD175 and USD400 per month), ignorance of muslim countries, and the chance to earn money! A large part of the Filipino population is UNEMPLOYED. Those lucky enough to get a job usually earn around USD250/month and that's for more skilled work. Someone working as a domestic helper may earn USD50/month + food or working as a salesperson/labourer USD100 - USD200 per month.

    When they are in the Middle East either the agency bringing them over or their direct employer WILL withold their passport. When abused they cannot go to the local authorities as that will create significant problems. They may go to the Filipino embassy only if they are certain the officer at the embassy handling their case isn't taking bribes from the employment agencies to bury reports. Keep in mind a flight home costs about USD800-USD1000 which they will not have available. The added worry for them is losing the ability to earn any money whatsoever since that will create problems for the family they are supporting back in the Philippines.

    Like I said in my earlier post, if I told some of the stories I've heard first and second hand, you will likely be shocked and outraged.

    I understand what RDTD and Miranda are saying. I agree the situation in Dubai is dangerous and there are always parallels between one autocratic state and another, particularly on that issue most affected by the centralization of authority, civil rights. But differences do often come down to the details. North Korea is literally a country with a prison system that resembles a network of concentration camps. The control over the amount of communication between it and the outside world is nearly absolute, the poverty is not normal poverty but a major humanitarian crisis with at least hundreds of thousands of people dying of malnutrition. The leader claims to have near god-like status and can point the finger at anyone and have them killed. We can say that these are only differences in degree but at some point the differences in degree are so severe that you are talking about a very different experience.

    And this is not to downplay the experience of being a transgender individual or homosexual in Dubai. I've already said I think it's untenable for anyone to expect someone to travel to a country where either your identity or your sexual orientation is criminalized. I just think the reason the parallel to North Korea works so well is not because of the clear parallels striking up eerie similarities, but because of its shock value, knowing that it is a country run by a madmen that engages in practices that could be taken out of a science fiction book.

    Yeah that's the way I took the comment too as a shock comparison.

    And by no means do I think Europe and North America are ideal societies but as pointed out earlier, at least progress is made over time and divergent views can be debated more often than not without the state imprisoning or killing its citizens.

    where every single thread with more than three posts in it that mentions another nation inevitably, inexorably, incredulously has to take a ginormous detour and start blasting away at the US. You can set your watch to it.
