Escorts

Never had one and never will. I mean come on! They want 2k for a virtual blowjob. I'll go wack myself off in RL for free thank your very much ^_^

I don't really have an opinion on it. As long as my hubby isn't cybering with anyone else then I'm all good. What others do is their business and whether or not I approve of it doesn't make a bit of difference.

An astute business woman I used to work with once told me these words of wisdom:

"They don't pay us to be with them; they pay us to leave."

Most clients of such services are people who either don't want or can't have a relationship and all that entails -- emotions, love, time, etc. They just want the booty and then to be able to disentangle without the woman being all like "when will you call me? do you love me? come to dinner with my parents next week!" In many ways, escorts et. al. are the inexpensive option, and I don't just mean in terms of money.

And I'm sure there are guys in SL who want to play on the sex balls without having to get all invloved with someone. Doesn't make them losers(usually )

Ugh. Puritan much?

There is NOTHING wrong with someone selling themselves for sex (where legal). You are simply passing judgement with your old-world, religously biased views on the matter and dismiss sex workers as a lower class citizen who you further degrade by labeling them with a nasty little title of 'slut' ('e-slut', in this case).

It is mindsets such as that on this issue that have continued to place an undue burden on the sex workers throughout history and has condoned violence against people who work in that industry, mainly women. It has forced them to stay in the dark recesses of society for fear of riducule. It has forced them to work unregulated, without benefits, without security, without health screenings for far too long.

It may not be your cup of tea, Zoey, but passing judgement like that makes you look like an ___.


Oh, and do you file your SL income on your RL tax returns?

I probably should've stayed out of this one.. but, here we go.

Prositution is viewed by many as a nasty little stain on society that offers nothing more than a life of disease, violence, and hatred to those who work in that industry.

I've never understood people's adverse reaction to prostitution and as I've gotten older have become more appalled by it. We, as a society, are doing ourselves a HUGE disservice by keeping prostitution illegal. This is a public health issue. Yes, yes... I know what you're thinking: "Exactly. That's why it should remain illegal."

Wrong. Keeping prostitution illegal actually makes the situation far worse. With the exception of Nevada (less Clark and Washoe counties), there are no government regulations for this industry. That means noone is testing the prostitutes for STD's, noone is providing a clean, secure place to work in, noone is making sure they are being paid and paid fairly.

No regulation means that a prostitute working the street can continue to spread STD's for years, afterall, who's gonna stop them?

Legalization and regulation is the way to go and the first step to removing prostitution from the underbelly of society to a proper place where we can *control* it.


Sorry for the sidetrack, but this sort of stuff ruffles my little feathers.


So, how 'bout them escorts??

Question: `My husband works out of town for long periods of time. While he's gone, I receive and pay all of the family bills. Last month when the phone bill came in, there were several 900 numbers listed. They were billed from his hotel room to our home phone. I mentioned them to him and he admitted he had called the sex phone line. He said it was better than going out and cheating on me while he was out of town. How should I handle his reasoning on this subject?'

Pat: Telll him it's flawed. It really is a serious thing that people are on the road for a while and they have an active marriage and maybe they're in their 30s or what have you, and every hotel room has got all of these X-rated movies, the blue channel, or whatever they call it. The availability of prostitutes is extraordinary. There are bars around with women who are easy pick-ups and not to mention what's on the Internet. Now there is this so-called phone sex stuff of some kid on the other end of the phone breathing into the receiver. The truth is, we've got to keep our minds on Jesus and we can't let the basic nature take over, and this kind of thing leads to fantasy and it's the equivalent of adultery.

Jesus was talking about it, and he said even if you look after a woman, to lust after her, you have committed adultery. It isn't a question about the physical act. It's a question of what you do with your mind. So this man says, `Well, I'm not cheating on you, but I've got some kid on the other end of the phone and I'm going through all these motions with her.' It's the same thing. It is a mental, and in a sense spiritual act of adultery because the greatest sex organ that anybody has, ladies and gentlemen, is your mind. And so he's exercising his mind and who knows what is happening with the rest of him? But that is not a good substitute. I'm sorry.

The other alternative for this one is if it's at all possible, either get him to get another job or see if maybe you can't accompany him on some of those trips, because being out there alone week after week after week is not a good situation for anybody. But they need to be reading the Bible, they need to be getting together with Christian fellowships, they need to get their minds on other things, and if they start focusing on this particular thing, it will take them over and it's going to damage your relationship.

Terry Meeuwsen: I think women feel very used in situations like that.

Pat Robertson: Well, of course, because who are you now having a relationship with? Me or that girl who's on the phone?

Lisa Ryan: And the Bible says if you've sinned in your mind, you've sinned. You don't have to follow through on the act.

Pat Robertson: There's no question about it.



So who are you ... this is the Question
this goes both ways

I don't know if that conversation was made up or taken from some source, but it does show what I feel, IMHO, is part of the problem with sex and our society.

He tells the caller that "we can't let the basic nature take over". WTF? Sex *is* natural and here he is trying to tell us we should suppress it and instead "...keep our minds on Jesus .." Not to mention that he suggests "fantasy" is a bad, unhealthy and sinful thing.

I'll bet that 99% of these types of issues would never manifest themselves if people were truly honest and open about thier sexuality.

Be open about what you want from the bedroom (or kitchen counter, or wherever) and you're more likely to end up with a partner who appreciates and compliments your needs.

2k?? You charge that much????

Lol dont think anyone charges that much

.. um not that id know ..

Every time I'm in the mood for a paid date I can't find an escort. What's up with that? haha. I mean, it's not even about the virtual sex, sometimes I just want to go do something romantic, ya know?

As a scandalous woman, I must say that I find the notion that people tell me what I can or can't do with my body, real or virtual, offensive. If I choose to sell myself for sex it is the same as choosing to sell myself for construction work. You may not like my choice, it may not appeal to you, but you don't have to participate do you? I fail to see how prostitution is any different from any other profession really.

I enjoy being an escort, I enjoy the company of men. Yes I have my own issues with erotic power, and I enjoy the fact that I can make a man orgasm. Its not just typed words on a screen for me, it is the way he is hanging on them, dependent, knowing (or at least hoping) I am turning him on. It is a thrill. Also, in my deepest confessions, I admit that I am secretly turned on by the notion of impersonal sex... of being an object of sexual pleasure. I find an erotic thrill in detachment.

Am I disfunctional, probably, but I really don't want to be cured. It is such a small part of my life that it has no day to day impact on who I am. What is important is that being an escort is something I choose to do, or choose not to. Also as an escort I find it easier to trust men, becuase we both understand what the situation is. They now that I am not looking for a husband, and I know they understand I don't want to be committed to a relationship in SL. For me the Escort status clarifies the positions, and I worry less about jealous lovers hacking my account or nuking my house.

Noone forces anyone to be an Escort. If you don't like the choice I made, fine. But don't tell me I am wrong for doing it. After all I amy not like some of the choices you make either.

Zip meet Jen, Jen meet Zip ... the rest of the Trolls mind your own business

...................

lol am kidding .. but was hard to resist ..

Escorting is far from all that everyone assume's, sex, just sex? not exactly, there are those that would like just for that, yes it does happen, but on a sociological & psychological point of view it is very much more.
An escort is giving up their time, their life to provide an essential service in this day and age. what might that be?
Company, experience, companionship, and so much more, a sub or a slave these day's is similar in choice, not everything is a stereo type.
In this day & age, time is spartan for those that work, long hours, tight schedules, limited social - pleasure time (We are playing a virtual game of inter-action here are we not?),
people can be indeed very shy, some even scared of the modern world, not everyone lives in a succesful life with home, car, beautiful show-biz style wife, 2.4 children, some do not even wish to, here you can 'Be' what you may not be able to in RL, is this not what SL is all about, some people naturally do not have the 'Chat up stunning personality' that some demand of a relationship & are therefore deemed sub-human, a joke, or otherwise.

An Escort , wether it be Male or Female play's a very special role in this day & age, it fill's a niche that is so very missing by today's values which are forced upon people in society to conform , are not goth's frowned upon, although very common, deemed satanists, freaks, when infact most are the least likeliest to commit harm to others, do not wish to socialise with others that cannot respect everyone for what they are, mix amongst themselves, when was the last mass war , violence, sacreligoues crime, insulting behaviour ever caused by goth's? none I can recall but that fit's the 'niche' society has dictated goths are, when infact it is very opposite, most i have met (yes i am goth to) are in very good jobs, are degree level or even higher, hopeless romantics, artistic, the lost goes on, but the stereotype sticks as does it with Escorts.

Is it not in Japan where a true Geisha is a most honoured position in life, giveing their life to the servitude, respect, pleasure, & trust of others, their position in life is far from frowned upon, it is not just about wham bang thankyou M'am.

I cannot frown or condone such a position in life, it is a role in life & SL to be commended if anything, if there we're no Escorts, what would happen to those in need of such a service? the consequences could be far worse than just disagreeing with the practice, lol enough from me, you get my point, each unto there own, be what you are, be what you need, do not force it on others

Not to nitpick, hun, but you mispelled AIDS in your last sentence. It doesnt begin with an "L".

I still have a 'calling card' of SL's most famous escort.

You can go ahead and delete that, I'm not working anymore.

Then why did you charge me?

As an experienced escort in sl and prior phone sex talker irl I can tell you that I was as surprised as you might be, Eggy, to discover that my clients actually have not only better than average income, but also better than average descriptive skills. I think they are, by and large, simply unwilling to sort lentils from stones and prefer to spend their time engaged in the activities of their choices instead of sweettalking some babe who may or may not be up to par in terms of cyber or other related activities.

Also, many of my clients are interested in specialized services, such as domination, humiliation, forced feminization, or a very particular roleplay scenario that not every casual date is going to be equipped for. As a phone sex talker, I often spoke with men who struggled with the gender polarization in our society. Poor fellah might just want to let someone know he's wearing panties under his business suit, and I was happy to accommodate--for $2.69 per minute. ;-D

I have, since then, found more lucrative employment irl (union job, yay!) so I only do this sort of thing in SL, and primarily because I enjoy it. The Linden is merely an enhancement for my kink. *giggles, smiling impishly*

So in short, far from being losers, the paying clients are more likely to make me hot for a variety of reasons. One being that they have embraced my personal kink, another being that they are generally successful and respectful (more so than the average joe who tries to cyber me) and third because they are generally (with a few exceptions) better in the virtual sack than the average Joe or Jill. (Yes, I have female clients too!) As for prices, I believe the standard is more like 1K/hour.

Of course, anyone who has bought land or "services" from Anshe has her calling card.


"I am a material girl with a money fetish - this means I get very kinky if you give me a nice gift. I don't know why. It kinda happens. Just a reaction of my body getting very hot. Maybe because I feel you show me special appreciation. So many boys want to make love and have nice words, but not so many boys really give up something they cherrish. This is why I ask for a little tip when you meet me "

You forgot "people just walking by and it gets handed to them out of the blue". Never used her "services" but I have bought land recently from her.

lets take about the escorts who lure men way from there sl mates ... and the women who hate it .... that why so much drama as well in sl ... women hold on to the mane you love if you really care for them .... be up front and honest with your men about how you feel and all ... about escosts if you dont want to loose your men .... if they have any repsect for your sl relationship / marriage they wont stray from you ....then have them make choices then .,... i klnow it goes both ways but be up front and hoest with you man from the strait if the wife /gf will or will no accept this kinda of behavoir ....

this is another thought .... its happened to me (((((

guess the woman lured him or .... what i dont know ... but it can happen

What I REALLY want to know is how much Eggy and Zoey will charge for an RL blowjob!

-Flip

If that happens to you please file abuse report. There have been some griefers setup spam devices with copies of this notecard.

I never distribute notecards or items that way.

If you are making so much money that you can export some of it from the game, then perhaps it is income. But if you spend it in game, there is no income.

If you were going to export money from the game and you to treat it as a business wouldn't you deduct all of your business costs, ISP, cable service, computer, office space, etc. in whic case I expect that very few people would make much profit.

Your comment that it is disgusting is incredibly prudish and naive. Thousands of people in SL and RL, AOL chat rooms, yahoo chat rooms, IM services, are all engaged in Cybersex. Many of them waste incredible amounts of time and effort trying to find a compatible and willing partner. If you have one or can find one, wonderful, but sometimes that just doens't work out. Escorts can save them lots of time and effort, probably provide a more satisfying experience and keep them from annoying lots of other people like yourself (don't know what they are missing).

Is it disgusting that people engage in Cybersex, I say not, its clearly human nature. There is a huge interest in Sex on SL, you see signs of it everwhere you go. The most commonly purchased items in SL all have to do with sex. Appearance enhancements, skin, sexual organs, clothing, sex balls and eqiupment, jewelery, large attractive private houses and estates, all have to do with enhancing our sexual appeal. What we are seeing here is a true reflection of human sexuality uncensored by outdated real world morals.

Which I think are totally screwed up by the way. We can watch murder and war on TV but not look at Janet Jacksons nipple jewelry!?! !!! What does that say about our values....pretty dang disgusting I think.

If we accept the fact that it perfectly natural for people to participate in cybersex, and I say it is, then it can't be disgusting, its a natural part of our human sexuality.

In which case I say escorts provide a valuable and useful service. They make it more and satisfying then wandering thru dozens of laggy bars hoping to hook up with another horney stranger. In my mind an escort (who may also enjoy cybersex), who provides you with good service and an enjoyable experience is providing something of value and there is nothing wrong with charging for that service.

I have not tried an escort yet by the way, but after last nights frustrating experiences in several laggy dance halls, I'm sure I would have enjoyed the experience much more if I had looked for an escort.

"Yes our laws are silly, but boy do we got Wal*Marts!"

Amen, amen.
