Farrah GFE Vimeo

Interested in both provider and hobbiest reaction to the FarrahGFE video:

Interesting.
Words that come to mind are:
Reality check

I will be on the look out for the "nail check" move.

I really thought it was a excellent look at escorting. On the technical side, it was very well shot.

I watched it last night but wanted to wait for awhile and let it sink in before posting. What sticks in my mind is this:

Farrah starts out escorting out of sheer desperation, but she later states (~ 4:30) that she's now too lazy to go to school and get a better job.

Very honest and interesting.

I agree. I think it is easy to get caught up in the illusion of the hobby, which is what I meant by reality check.

What got me was the teen mom tie in...way to pick your heros...thanks empty V.
Also..who in their right mind thinks 2 bills in nyc is going to get you 4 walls and roof? Money wise she seems to be doing pretty well now though.

Agree that it is a reality check. I think the illusion is on both sides of why they get in as providers and how long they believe they will stay in it. Same for us hobbyist also.

I totally agree. I get it. I see it in my friends who bartend through college, then after they graduate they don't ever get a "real" job because they're essentially addicted to the quick cash and can't live on an entry level salary.

A couple of people mentioned reality check. For me the reality check is her understanding that she is a rape survivor. She was subject to the depravity of others in order to survive in NYC and she thinks it was more of a choice. There is emotional damage that is evident

Another are of reality check comes in when she talks about wanting the Mercedes and a house and is saving for it, but wants to quit escorting. She can't raise her standard of living without escorting to pay for the recurring costs that come with homes and cars. To think she can pay for that lifestyle without education, the job experience, or a rich husband, and not escort is a pipe dream. A different form of reality check.

Having been that bartender guy long time ago, yes, its easy to making 2K a month, cash, while going to school and neglect studies. But I woke up soon enough to move on and get to pursue what I really like, instead of easy money.

Onto hobby world, its one of the reason, I have wanted to quit, knowing what IOP is about. I have pretty much quit for now, but we'll see how long I will sustain that.

But its the same reality check for the girls. If you truly are serious about quitting, then get a real job, if not you will never quit.

I do know few girls in here, who do have a real job, and do this for fun, and yeah, make some extra cash as an incentive. But that is very rare, and those girls rarely advertise.

I think what's really going on is the "Farrah" is very empty and disconnected while her real life alter ego seems to function normally.

Did you also catch that she sees about 20 men a month, but sometimes as many as 7 in a single day? So do you think she just works a few days then just hangs out with her friends the rest of the time? That in itself could make someone rather vapid, in my opinion.

And all this time I thought escorts loved my BCD skills, now I see it's all about the money...I'm hurt and shocked.

I guess it's B-n-G's from now on.

I wonder how old she is?

Dang. Checking her nails. Sounds like SOE.

I'd venture to say she was lazy before she got desperate. She wanted to move here and pay 200/month to couchsurf. Then it didn't work with the dood but she could stay long enough to save for something else??? She could have worked a real job and found another arrangement.

She wanted to fcuk and make a lot of money. She admits she is too lazy, but I don't think being an escort made her lazy. I think being lazy (and liking to fcuk) made her an escort. She could have done other things besides get on CL.

Not saying all ladies, just the one in question. Ladies who do this are as varied as anyone who chooses to do any trade. Interesting look for sure though. Thanks for sharing.

It is stories like this that make me question being in the hobby. It is bad enough to have to work at a job you don't like but to dislike working at one this intimate is sad. I feel for the girl. The sex started as a survival activity and now she has lost the initiative to go forward with something that will carry her beyond the veil of constant lies and fear of discovery.

There's a zillion ads for it on...yes...you guessed it...CraigsList! We know she knows how to use that!

Also, I think she's vapid/shallow (her right to be that way), but I didn't see her as similar to a rape victim at all...
