I often wonder what pushes someone to the point where they decide to become a prostitute. It must be quite a moment, when a person makes such a decision. I routinely browse the Erotic Services section of Craigslist and am saddened to see so many young girls who appear to be perfectly normal girls who are trying to pay for their education.
Ten years later, when the girl in question has an established career and is in a committed relationship, what must it be like for her and her partner to deal with the fact that she was previously a prostitute?
Do prostitutes have serious relationships outside of their jobs? Do prostitutes hate themselves for what they do? What is the mindset of most prostitutes? Maybe someone is trying to tell me somethingβ¦..
I think the key here is desperation. Never been one to go into this realm, but depending on your market and your level of attraction you get ahead and live it up. Have you considered porn? Not that I endorse that but it tends to be better moderated and not as shady. One can land you in jail the other might make you famous and land you in jail too! I like a line from a Michael Penn song. At any rate hope you are just interested in the topic and not really feeling like your last resort.
I agree with seared β it all depends on the circumstances. A prostitute trapped by drugs and an abusive pimp and forced to sell herself is worlds away from someone who chooses her profession. Bust just sometime around August had an article about hipster callgirls, might be worth a check-out. Astro: Is postman merely a euphemism, then? How many times do you knock? They needed it. I needed money. I actually enjoyed the job. I never had a moments remorse. All of that said, I do feel sorry for people who are forced into prostitution for whatever reason.
