junkyard, this statement of yours implies prostitutes are not women. Kinda the theme here I think..
Sadly feminism seems to have passed some of you by.

No, the topic seems to be passing you by, prostitutes can be male or female you’re coming across as a sexist bigot.

It’s sometimes hard to believe that we’ve made any progress in the last 50 years.

Anyone who has ever viewed porn has engaged the services of a sex worker seems a bit hypocritical to then call them abusive names but I expect it’s got something to do with transferring the guilt some men feel at having to pay for sexual services.

A know someone who works as a stripper at Stringfellows she’s a lovely lass who is considerably smarter than the men who pay her.

Sorry igmc

Reminds me of the IT Crowd Matt Berry sketch:

I used to be a man

Would I date a call girl? I wouldn’t call it ‘dating’. Dating implies something nice.

What an odd thing to say. You do realise that some call girls are actually fairly nice normal people who are entertaining, good company etc etc…

In answer to the op though I’d like to think the answer would be “yeah why should I care if she’s a call girl or a doctor ” I think in practice though it would go one of two ways – if she hated the work and I couldn’t talk her out of it I think I’d have to walk away as I wouldn’t be able to watch the damage, or of she was fine with the work I guess after a while I’d probably start to find it difficult and it would make me feel uncomfortable /inadequate.

So yes I would but I don’t think it would last.

*edit – the assumption here being there are only two kinds of people who ran a living as sex workers which there aren’t, but after all this is the Internet, home of the sweeping generalisation.

No, your just a charity event/freebie

TBH I’d only get inside her if she was an Escort….

Disagree with prostitution on a discussion forum and get likened to a serial killer. Brilliant, good work.

work is work pleasure is pleasure.. to different things..

this statement of yours implies prostitutes are not women

It does not imply anything and not all of them are women.

Sadly feminism seems to have passed some of you by.

Nothing i have said [ ever on here never mind this thread]is sexist nothing.
Though sten1 can dislike men and no one has pulled her up on it except me 😕
That is the only statement I have seen that is openly dismissive of a gender though i may have missed something

yes you missed the huge pink elephant in the room but no matter…

junkyard, this statement of yours implies prostitutes are not women. Kinda the theme here I think..

Hang on a minute, in your headlong rush to be offended you’ve missed JYs point that they’re men too, at no point did anyone say prostitutes weren’t women, just weren’t all women.

(Edit: crossed posts)

Prostitution is a difficult one. I used to cycle down through town (Manchester) up past all the street/industrial estate spots by Picadilly on the way to the gym. The amount of times you’d see a car driving round slowly with a childseat etc in the back (obviously just the male in) creeped me out.

street walking is very different from putting a add on adult work.You were right to be creeped out, coz the men are creepy..

Well I am a woman and I am offended. Firstly they do not all choose to be prostitutes

I am not a woman and I agree.

Never ceases to amaze me how many blokes will spend a night trying to woo a woman in a club, chatting her up, buying her drinks, just on the off-chance that she might sleep with him at the end of the night and then never see each other again. And yet, you suggest cutting out the middle man and just giving the drinks money straight to her and those same blokes blanch at the very idea.

We’re very messed up when it comes to sex. A woman has a lot of partners and she’s a slag, a bloke has a lot of partners and he’s a stud. How’s that work?

Wrecker, cool your jets, you’re sailing far too close to the wind.

I lived in Coimbra northern Portugal in the 90s.
I had to walk to the bus every morning and evening. This meant walking through the red light area. No lights, just many ladies of the night.
Every morning and evening I would smile and say good morning to them. I always got a smile and good morning/evening back. One day I was walking with my friend and he kindly told them my name.
So, every day it was “Bom Dia ladies” followed by “bom Dia iolo”. Very pleasant.
One evening I get a date with a stunningly beautiful girl from work so I take her to a fancy restaurant. Th evening went lovely.
As I was walking her home we went through the red light area. Coming round the corner I was greeted by a chorus of professional ladies saying “Boa Noite iolo”.
That was the last date I got with that girl and my reputation at work was ruined. 🙄

ok for those that don’t get it, Its bad to think less of a woman or speak of her in a derogatory way if she sells sex, if you do you are a ass hole

It’s not! It’s exactly the same thing. Just because the participants are wearing nicer underwear, it doesn’t make any less seedy.
If prostitutes are socially acceptable, then you can’t pick and choose which ones. And the “men” that use them must also be considered socially acceptable too so clear conscience for all of the kerb crawlers.

No it’s not bad to think less of a woman, or man because they are prostitutes, that’s just your opinion (as a prostitute).

Oh yeah, and FWIW I think everyone’s misunderstood Junkyard here.

Disagree. Its hope- the hope you’d get off with someone really nice, it may turn into something. You may actually meet someone you like longtime. Avoid stereotyping every male in the land as wanting a one-night stand.

When we were single, deep down we all seek the life partner.

Men who see prostitutes aren’t all single men are they either. How many girlfriends or wives would allow such behaviour?

In addition just because you charge £1,000 and only meet in fancy hotels doesn’t mean its any different an act than £30 for a quickie in a Fiat Uno.

You missed the point didnt you, i was saying it much safer and nicer from the girls point of view, its a different world, the girls on the streets do it for drugs while a girl with her own flat could be doing it for drugs, but then again they might want a new sofa and TV.

No it’s not bad to think less of a woman, or man because they are prostitutes, that’s just your opinion

it my opinion youre a sexist bigoted ass hole that is likely a danger to women but then again that is only my opinion.

No I personally would not.

I would worry about HIV and don’t want herpes or syphilis/any other disease.

Monogamist values of mine would conflict.

Would I care if you dated an escort? no – as long as you are happy I could not care less.

I would date Billie Piper.

Bet they’ve changed his naughty mind though eh?

Cougar, Clobber, thisisnotaspoon I accept that I may have misunderstood junkyard, hence why I said implied, it only needed an explaination, not an insult (clobber).

Anyway clobber your conversation was limted to women was it not.

eg

I don’t think wrecker is being offensive to women on the whole just those who choose to be prostitutes

Anyway aside from the unwarranted insulting behaviour I wish to address this:

prostitutes can be male or female

I wonder is there a male equivalent of slag, slut or whore?

I wonder is there a male equivalent of slag, slut or whore?

All of them are applicable.

This lot? Bet they haven’t 😀

As I said, I don’t care for the opinion of a prossie.

the hope you’d get off with someone really nice, it may turn into something. You may actually meet someone you like longtime. Avoid stereotyping every male in the land as wanting a one-night stand.

You’re the one stereotyping and saying what we all want. It’s pretty much what I always wanted, but it sometimes felt like I was in the minority (when I was younger, at any rate).

I didn’t say, or even imply, “every male in the land.” But there will be an amount who are only interested in the next conquest. You think lads go on Club 18-30 type holidays to find a life partner?

It’s not sexist to call a prostitute a whore. It is sexist to go around calling women (who aren’t prostitutes) whores.

It might not be sexist but it’s really, really unpleasant. Labels like whore and slag dehumanise people same as words like queer, faggot, ****, coon etc etc it labels someone without a thought for why they are as they are and justifies shitty behaviour. Political correctness for all it’s faults is a means to try and stop the use of terms like these. I’m half Greek does that make me a wop or a deigo or somesuch?

OP: go for it. She likes you your hypothetical friend, you your hypothetical friend likes her. If it all goes wrong in a couple of months, shit happens. But better that than to wonder what could have been.

Any women that sells their body for sex is going to be Psychologically screwed.

Just not true. A colleague and I got chatting with a quite mature lady who was nursing a warm coke in a hotel bar in eastern Nigeria. She looked lonely and sad and we asked her if she’d like a drink, nothing else. She joined us since she had nothing else to do and gradually the story came out: hubby had left her or died, can’t remember, and she had kids to support and no job so had reluctantly turned to prostitution. She was a perfectly ordinary, mature, sensible woman. She wasn’t screwed up but she was bitter about what life had dealt her. I found the whole experience very saddening.

You think girls do?

well id rather be me a 31 year old TS m2f part time call girl than some boring bigoted middle aged **** that cant ride a bike.

You think girls do?

Did I say that’s what I thought?

as the OP to this entirely hypothetical situation, I should add that if any relationship did occur the sideline of work would finish…all parties are in agreement with that.

.

One who is currently partaking, no. An ex who was all checked out, probably. A stripper, sure why not.

My main concern would be the possibility of my John Thomas falling off.

Edit no scratch that, my main concern would be the fact she’s a pro and I couldn’t wrap my head around it.

But then could I wrap it around dating a porn star. Hmm. At least I’d know the fellas.

Ok so who would date a pro that only did women? Does that make it better?

well id rather be me a 31 year old TS m2f part time call girl than some boring bigoted middle aged **** that cant ride a bike.

Fair enough, I’d rather keep my self respect personally. Oh and I’m not that much older than you.

I have self respect that why i wont do it for a few drinks..

Nope, I couldn’t. I would just spend my entire time wondering what sweaty beast had been pawing at my girlfriend recently.

I recently visited Amsterdam on a work trip. As expected the red light area was part of the entertainment and I must say I don’t think I have ever been less sexually interested in some rather attractive girls in my life. Was it the girls? Nope they were very pretty. Was it the place? Yep partly. It was mostly the sight of horrible, seedy looking blokes skulking out of cubicles after they had done the deed. I felt ill tbh and I am normally a horny git at the best of times.

I could never date a prostitute, not an active one or one from the past. There may be higher class prostitutes but they all let some stranger put his dick in them for money and I couldn’t live with it.

i suppose that way you would lose you sense of ownership over her wouldn’t you.. 🙁
