There is a quote from a nerdy book I read."Always call a jack a jack, and a spade a spade. But always call a whore a lady because her life is hard enough." I get that, if a stream of unwashed, fat, haggling ladies tried to constantly get at my weiner, I'd probably be upset when they started using deragotry terms at the same time they were trying to get me to plow them without a condom.

I agree that what they do is definitely a challenge. What I don't agree with is singling a certain demographic out because they have "hard lives". Most of us have hard lives in some capacity. Now, a lot of these ladies are incredibly successful and are bringing in income hand over fist.
I am all for being old fashioned, but this is damn near 2016! How many people express discontent over calling doctors "quacks" or lawyers "crooks"? You don't hear a lot of bitching about it because those are two respected lines of work.
I use the full spectrum of the terms. However, at the end of the day, I respect the individual, not because they have a hard life and I pity them (hell, I'm sure some are living more plush lives than us), but because all people deserve it. Whether you're a Congressman or a Garbage man, you have my respect.
They are whores when it comes down to being on a "whore board". But when it comes down to a session, they become an individual. This is where I ensure I am proactively good, kind, and courteous because every person deserves that. I want them to enjoy their time with me as much as they can because we all deserve a good time right? I was even complemented in a session because the lady said I didn't make her "feel" like a whore.
My question is does a whore supposed to feel? Just because society looks down on the profession, does that make them of any less value? Hell no! We have just as wide a spectrum of whores as we do of the human race. All shapes, colors, backgrounds, professions, and socioeconomic statuses have there share of whores, be it on ECCIE or not.
I say, if you're a hooker, just own that shit and be proud! If it's true what they say, they're making money for doing something they love. Most Americans would envy that! I know I do!
It's just like my handle DarkeyKong, most people would look at that and think I am being derogatory towards myself when it is actually the opposite. I'm proud to be AA in spite of the fact that we are a traditionally disenfranchised people and that we are negatively viewed in many ways by society, from our speech, to our clothing, to our forms of entertainment etc....
However, there is nothing I can to about the fact that I have pigmentation in my skin, in most cases, there's nothing I can do about people viewing that as a minus. Therefore, I will own who I am and what I am to the fullest, hence the term "Darkey" there is no question about my ethnicity as I am owning it upfront! Only thing I can do Is be the best "person" I can be and ensure I'm incredibly successful in this life for myself and my peeps!
I guess I said all that to say this, we can't control what people call us, but we can control what we become! Therefore, the seat of our emotions can't be based in a name, but in our being. Ok, that's it rock on!
