A person's expenses does not retrospectively affect how hard they worked to earn their money (it may motivate them to earn more though).Quote:

And you are incorrect to suggest that all those minimum wage people can just save their 1k that took them weeks to earn - we all have expenses.
I may be ignorant of what a tgirl escort's life entails, but excuse me for saying you seem equally ignorant of what an actual normal, every day person's life is about. You're still very young, you've been to college - you could not possibly have worked some 'dead end job', and if you have then it hasn't been for long!
And you are correct to suggest that Domino might only see 1 client every few weeks, making her salary the same. But she has still only actually worked for 30 minutes of those 2 weeks for the same money!
This does not sound like 'hard work' to me. I am not saying her life must be easy as a result of this! Those are two different things..
Well you know what? Go to the doctor every 3 months to make sure your not having any physical side effects from the very expensive hormones you pay for, then saving up for medical emergencies, while paying for different plastic surgeries, while paying for regular bills like rent, phone bills, car insurance, clothes, food, etc... Your comparison to the real world has got nothing on our world. Step in our shoes for a month you will not make it a week.Quote:

The reason why a few women can charge that much is because they have worked hard to earn a name, an image, a product that most don't even do. This industry in general is hard work, it's called hustling. To go out and find a job out of the norm is not easy, however it is easier to some.
Higher paid women don't just wake up one day and say i will charge 1000k. That is stupid! Domino did movies to get her out there, then she paid for a few surgeries, and created an image, to create her product she paid photographers, clothes, and various materials. This took years, and god knows where she was before porn? Its hard work. How can you say it's not? she worked hard to get that salary. And deserves every penny of it, and the guy int he Mcdonalds register can learn a few things from people like us.
These guys just like jerking off to the finished product. If they had to visualize what you and I have gone through to be the people they casually want to screw, their dicks would go limp. They only want the finished product as a fantasy. Even an hour in our shoes within our first year of transition would have them slitting their wrists or blowing their brains out. You and I know that.Quote:

Personally, I think it's fascinating. And the irony is, their level of resentment is partially what gives us the right to decide what our time is worth. lol

Love Linda, She worked hard and deserves her money, and people were willing to give her that salary!Quote:

i know quite a few girls in transition that never needed to resort to sex work. they maintained successful careers. there are actually far more transgendered girls out there NOT in porn or escorting than otherwise. I respect them moreso than I ever would someone with a far easier job.
I respect people who work hard at anything. I don't think hearing about transsexuals and knowing a few gives you any profound understanding of what being a TS is really like. Most transsexuals I've known don't even verbalize the most painful aspects of their transitions. But they don't have to so much around one another. We know what we've encountered in life. Especially people who experienced GID even in early childhood. For them, stuggling to fit is just a way of life. If you don't bury it and become desensitized to it to some degree, you'll never work it out intellectually at a future date.Quote:

Case in point; I don't know what it's like to be black and wear a hoodie in FL, but I'm sure it's more challenging when you're not white. That'll take a toll on a person's psyche and concept of self. There are reasons that black people are often underachievers other than "they're all lazy". I know you're smart enough to understand that.
Anyway, why be here and cop a sanctimonious attitude? lol Obviously you're damaged goods yourself by society's standards on some level, to even have established a presence on this forum of all places. Does that bother you? And, if so, how do you emotionally process it?
