trannies with real jobs

Having made the statement above, I would be remiss if I
did not point out that much like any other business owner,
or sole proprietor the tranwoman who works in the sex
industry must be very cognizant of making good business
decisions.

The sex worker has a very finite earning period. Her peak earning
period may be from 18 - 35. If a transwoman has made the
decision to work in the sex industry she must take great care to
insure that she will be able to earn a decent living once she leaves
the industry.

Perhaps she has set up other income producing ventures. Often she
has taken the money that she has earned from the sex industry and
furthered her education.

A woman in 'the industry' may be likened to an athelete, or to any
other entertainer. As a business woman it is very important that
she insure the longevity of her earning potential.

That would be sound business practice.

As has been pointed out ..many TG women work in the Health sector .. my former GF (a pre-op TS) works in the National Health Service here in UK,within the surgical field.

Her employers know all about her & the only documentation remaining in her "former" name is her Birth Certificate (which will be changed after SRS).

Naturally,I'm not going to post her pic for obvious reasons.

Several of her TG friends enjoy senior positions in various other fields,including one working for a well known UK High Street Bank.

Bye for now,

But, aesthetically, they aren't on the same scale that you see posted up in the forum. Would make sense if you're only making so much an hour, the womans transition can only move as fast your financial income does.

So, $12 an hour @ Macy's dealing with Irate customers. Or, $350 an hour where she can dominate some bottom boy?

People need think realistically.

Unisex, I must beg to differ with you.

It has been postulated that roughly 33% of tranwomen work in the
sex industry.

It may appear that that the majority of transwomen are employed
as sex workers, but this is due to them needing to be visible by
virtue of thir high profile occupations.

Thus the transwomen that you are seeing are either women who
allow themselves to be known, or women who do not pass well.

There is a fairly high percentage of transwomen who pass quite
well, and one would have no reason to question their gender
status based upon a mere quick glance or brief encounter.

Tranwoman are a diverse population, with some working in
blue, pink, white collar realms, as well as the sex industry.

The transwomen you may know of may either fall into two categories,
highly attractive sex workers, or transwomen who do not pass very
well.

However the reality lies somewhere in between.

I was working as a call center operator in the summer as my summer job. I am not planning to become a sex worker.

Anything that requires effort and work is a "real job".I'm sure the porn and sex industry is very demanding and is not all glamour.We see the end result not the time and effort it takes to look the way they do or the hours they may have to work.Or the myriad other things they have to do or put up with.

can we post some pictures of them at work?

Ha ha Ballbreaker .. in the case of my former GF,it would do no good,as she wears a surgical cap,facemask & gown at work .. so you'd still be none the wiser.

Besides,it would be very rude to post another "private" persons pic on the web .. without their express permission & I like to think I'm too much of a gentleman to do that ... sorry.

Why make $12/hour at a proper job when one can make $350 hoeing? Hmm the answer comes on many forms.

1. "Working" is illegal, and not everyone relishes the idea of engaging in criminal acts, no matter how it's sugar coated as "victimless"

2. The deeper love of self and pride and respect that comes from being a productive and contributing member of society. The ability to hold one's head high and give a truthful answer when asked "what do you do for a living"?

3. The satisfaction the comes from doing an honest days work and knowing your income does not rely upon being intimate with persons you normally wouldn't give the time of day to on the street. Having those same persons on some level think they are better than yourself, after all you offered yourself to them for money.

There are lots of natural women working in positions that pay very little, by some rationale expressed here they all should go on the game.

The "Madonna/Whore" syndrome is very much still alive, and many men (despite what they may say) do not respect "working girls". They may have relations with them, even go around with them socially, but that is about the extent of things.

As for the trannies, if working was such a picnic, why are many of them so "angry" & "bitter"? Again, if you were depending upon being with several men per day or week for your daily bread, how content would you be? Things might be different if the men all gorgeous young males (of whatever race/nationality that floats your boat). Were polite and showed up to do nothing but make the girl happy, but the reality is far different.

Another thing is the constant stress of daily life engaged in criminal activity. Wondering who knows what, dealing with nosy neighbors, dealing with nasty comments. Or the flip side, people who know your game and want a cut. Doormen, pimps, lazy bfs, what have you can hold a working girl's occupation over her head to get what they want. The girls have little recourse and very little options.

Finally there is probably the incredible loneliness that comes from leading such life. Outside of a circle of people engaged in simliar or other acts, society can be very limited. Even when girls do go out, there is always the chance of being outed not only as a trannie, but as a hooker/sex worker as well. If you think the former changes how people view a person, the later has even more weight.

Well, I'm a licensed cosmetologist working at a full service salon, I have also worked as Make Up artist for M.A.C, while attending cosmetology school I worked at a Call Center/CSR for an International calling card company, and for Whitman Walker Clinic (funded in part by Elizabeth Taylor) as CSR for their 202-232-AIDS hotline. And yes doing all that including dancing at a club on weekends never made 300$ an hour, but I was happy with myself and that is all that mattered to me...
