I like it, I'm good at it and I want to do it. It's not my only form of income, I do a lot of different things. I have used what I do to create security for today and the future for me and my family. How many people can say they are doing what they love and never feel like their working??? Originally Posted by Becca Blossoms

I hate to bring this up but there one other reason that no one wants to talk about. Being molested as a child. It's sickening but I've been told it is very common among escorts. Feel free to ignore this post because I don't want to talk about it either.

Not to be a buzz kill but that may be too intimate knowledge for people to mention, unless SL used to be an alter boy.

Duh..... Screwing doctors, businessmen is the same job as corporate sales, or pharma sales, or medical sales rep without all the college....... :-)

Being molested as a child isn't just common among escorts. It's common among women in general. It may be more common in the escort world to encounter a woman who's been molested in the past, though, since the majority of women in the world don't work in the sex industry.

The truth is I know more women who are NOT escorts who have been molested as girls, and I know just as many MEN who have been sexually violated or abused as children too.

And even if it were the case as to why some women get into escorting, who is to say that their choice wasn't working for them to get through their own sexual issues?

While I certainly have known some girls who have been sexually abused who got into the industry, it's like I said, how do you explain the many people who have been molested and never once get into the sex industry? I just think the stereotype is another way that some people try to justify why some women get into the business.


We often look for 'reasons' as to why a woman would 'choose' a profession that is marginalized and may seem to some to be an immoral and degrading choice. I once read on a board where a man stated that " If you look closely at most of these women who are escorts, there is definitely something wrong with all of them." That really made me angry. MANY clients also have issues with women, but we don't hear about how they might be misogynists, sexually abused.

Well Ava, I'm not a woman so I can only guess at what makes you all do this. I have two ex inlaws that were both molested and abused as young girls, both are in this industry. They exhibit extremely destructive behavior such as addiction, etc. They are very cold and cruel at times. Before I knew what had happened I always knew they had a bit of a blank stare and never ever seemed to be able to experience real joy even when giving birth. They are pretty screwed up and it really broke my heart when I learned the truth.

That's really all I knew until I decided to become a hobbyist myself. I am greatful to you, Ava, and many others here on Eccie for providing a much different and positive perspective about this industry. My own experiences lean your way. I yield to your expertise.

Hookers are lazy, period. If they weren't you'd need more than money to fuck them.
