Re: Can You Be Considered High Class When You Sell Sex?
No, i'm saying that classifying an escort as "high class" vs a street walker is pointless. there's no sugarcoating the term "prostitution", they're still selling their body for money, which i consider demeaning and inhumane.
the term "high class" in itself is a very putrid statement to begin with.

Re: Can You Be Considered High Class When You Sell Sex?
It is only our vastly flawed nature which allows us to sell our bodies for financial gain. Therefore it is a very human thing to do. It is demeaning to yourself because as soon as you sell your body people no longer respect you whether its your friends, family or your clients.
I also concur that the term escort and prostitute are synonymous with each other, an escort is simply a more expensive prostitute. I think the point of this thread is probably to discuss the sugarcoating that goes on around this, especially in some of the advertising we see these days.
I have dated, been friends with, and seen escorts in a business capacity over the years. A number of which have described themselves as high class in their ads. One recent example conversation with a " High Class " friend went like so:
Me: Why do you like me?
Her: I like guys with shaved heads, and stubble, its hot ... that and arab looking guys.
Me: I thought you hated arab guys?
Her? When did I say that?
Me: Well anytime you tell me about weirdos following you home or trying to chat you up at a train station or something you always say they're arab and they're weird.
Her: Oh yeah, I see what you mean, ... but thats just the poor ones.
She also told me about her best friend sleeping with his brother and felt that was acceptable, as long as it didn't affect her. A high class individual?

Re: Can You Be Considered High Class When You Sell Sex?
the intimacy of love and sex are a sacred part of the human psyche in my opinion. to be touched and be penetrated, or penetrate a stranger , for the simple act of survival is what i consider demeaning (getting money to pay bills from that)
there's people that voluntarily get into the sex biz, and that's their prerogative. Just like i'm ALLOWED to have my opinion about it being demeaning. If they want to continue doing it, I don't lose sleep any over it, but it does not change my opinion.
Now,I know people are going to bring up the "blah blah blah, other jobs can be just as demeaning, blah blah blah" and to a certain extent I see their viewpoint, but to me it is very different doing a shitty job, and selling your body. sorry, but that's the way i feel.

Re: Can You Be Considered High Class When You Sell Sex?
Well take Grooby Steven for example: he too is a CEO of a successful company. Only problem is; HE HATES EVERY WAKING MOMENT OF IT - by chance he's been forced into a life where he is constantly surrounded by beautiful people and has to suffer from the unknown of what could had been
This is a perfect example of what it means to demean yourself!

Re: Can You Be Considered High Class When You Sell Sex?
I don't agree with your view but every person I've talked to who considers sex work degrading considers the sex worker to be a victim. Why then would you go out of your way to insult people you think are exploited?
Your comment was not the paternalistic one seeking to protect people from exploitation but a fairly obvious and unnecessary insult.
The next question I have is: can someone have class and do something demeaning? Even if sex work is demeaning (and as others have said I don't think it is any more demeaning than other work), why would that preclude sex workers from behaving with class?
