Its also the world's oldest profession.
[QUOTE=One O Nine]Selling one's body is not your average impersonal commercial transaction. It's heartwrenching.[/QUOTE]Its also one sure fire way a women with zero skills and zero chance of making more than the minimum amount of money in a low level job can support herself and her family.
Having met the majority of prostitutes who just got started working, I can say that in the beginning, its more about helping their families than buying fancy clothes.
Is this an episode of the Oprah Winfrey Show?
[QUOTE=One O Nine]Well I've met a few more working girls than you
. . .
Selling one's body is not your average impersonal commercial transaction. Girls who can handle it are rare. It leaves a mark. You may not notice it every time, you may not notice it right away, not every girl will show it, but I've seen it many times. It's heartwrenching.[/QUOTE][b]One O Nine[/b]. OK, you met a few more working girls then me. But that is for the Ukrain.
This discussion is more general then only the Ukrain.
By the way: how did you meet all these working girls? Was it in your role as worker for the Salvation Army when you were trying to rescue them?
Or were you "buying their bodies and thus leaving marks upon them"? And now your christian moral makes you feel guilty?
Prostitution is not sympatic. Prostitution is selling sex for money.
Most women I met want something back in return for sex. If it is not money then it is a relationship they want in return. A relationship that might vary from sponsorship to marriage.
I have no intention of starting whatever relationship. I also have no intention of lying neither, pretending to have a realationship and then dropping out. So for me prostitution is a good and honest solution.
Like I wrote: prostitution is not sympatic. Not symaptic for both parties.
Nevertheless, want prostitution to be as pleasant and beneficial for both parties as possible.
There is no joy in abusing a woman who is forced into prostitution for whatever reason.
But there is also no joy in being cheated by a prostitute who wants to have a maximum of money in return for a minimum of performance.
I am very suprised a discussion like this is going on at this forum.
Thought this forum was about prostitution and not about womens lib.
I am also pretty suprised the direction this discussion is heading towards.
Reminds me of the Oprah Winfrey Show.
Anyway, to me the reason is getting more and more clear why in western culture (were guys have a mentality like "One o Nine") even unfounded aquisations of sexual harresment can have far going consequences for men!
Live theater vs. Life theater
[QUOTE=Prosal]The myth of the expensive EE hoe selling herself for harsh necessity is BS. Those girls are not selling their ass for survival, they're selling it so they can buy BS status accessories (expensive mobiles phones, Prada shoes, D&G jeans, ect) and live a livestyle that would normally be out of their reach if they managed to do it and make month end without whoring. They become hoes just for the same reasons that some girls become escorts in western countries : because the money is good. And if they can stand having sex with old fat guys, the work really isn't that hard.
Getting us to feel sorry for them is a big part of their scam. I personnaly never felt and will never fall for this.
Some of you 'experts' seem to forget that prostitution is all about role playing. That's live theater, that's all.[/QUOTE]Pro:
I like your analogy of prostitution being live theater. Respect. That comes pretty close to the way I deal with the individual pro. And is why I like to bring a video camera. I'll remember the term "live theater" next time I'm on the road... :)
But regarding the comments of my fellow mongers below, since when are we talking explicitely and exclusively about expensive hos? And since when are we wholly generalizing?
I also don't feel one damn bit sorry for those cold pros that scoff at a fair offer with the argument that "real men" can pay $500 etc or counter any small talk with "don't do this, don't do that and make up your fucking mind" all while looking at her D&G watch and texting her padrushka on a sponsered $500 phone. The vindictive mercenary-like pro doesn't enjoy my sympathies and experienced mongers avoid these girls like the plague anyway. I've seen Cruiser, 109 and a number of other experienced mongers "in action" at clubs and these girls don't stand a chance with them. I trust that most of the experienced ISG public behaves similarly.
By the same token, I believe if a girl is just trying to get ahead in life and afford some fun accessories so that she can live a glam lifestyle I am happy to support her... just as long as her price is fair and her service is good. Fair price is a relative thing and also dependent on the situation... market prices for the venue you met her in etc. etc. Just because you can bang a salon girl for $60/hour doesn't mean a RP girl has to accept the same tarif. If you want salon prices go to a salon.
Irregardless of where I picked up the pro though, I personally have very rarely been confronted by pros that complained or whined about anything. The vast majority simply did their job without complaint and most seemingly enjoyed the evening. Only after some candid conversations or some keen observation on my part was it apparent what was going on. The girls neither asked for extra money or support and certainly didn't ask for any sympathy. Hos are a tough breed. I've seen them deal with broken condoms, cold showers, utter exhaustion, theft by other mongers, fear and any number of other problems with a bravado and panache worthy of a SAS HRT.
I usually treat pros like girlfriends... as generous as I feel appropriate without overdoting and overspending. It's a system that works for me and one that gets the best response from them. As 109 said, after all they are also humans... and at the end of the day, women are women and its easier to love them than to fight them.
One of the golden rules of mongering is that there is a fine line between being a chump and being a champ.
But we are talking about hos in general and the notion that they all live happy lives as Gabbana-clad princesses is pure propaganda that some astonishgly inept mongers choose to believe, as it apparently matches their skewed outlook on life and disturbed relation to the female species. Some of the woman-hating comments here seem more appropriate in a Sharia textbook than a forum for educated mongers. I find it equally sad that some seem to have declared war on females and hold them responsible for all the frustration they feel in their lives. Sad indeed. Get a life or get a grip is all I have to say to those.
IMHO it is a relatively simple situation. Fuck enough girls and sooner or later you will have fucked some that are losing the game or most probably, never even really had a chance to win.
Night Flight in Moscow and River Palace in Kiev are full of the mercenary-type pro. If you get the wrong one of these, you'll end up feeling worse after the sex than you did before. Get a good one AT A FAIR PRICE and you'll cherish the memories.
Napalm in the morning. Smells like victory.
"Damaged goods" pros are primarily found at the middle to low levels of prostitution and BY NO MEANS are they ALL damaged or living horrible lives. It is rare however to find one that can continue the job for any length of time without going cold or suffering a disturbed relationship to sex or relations in general.
In fact, THE SAME CAN PROBABLY BE SAID FOR MANY MONGERS.
I am by no means trying to take the high moral ground. I am a monger. I fuck women for money. I've fucked angels and devils. High-class hos and 80 IQ country girls from the port.
I've seen both ends of the spectrum and know that prostitution is a job for many, a lifestyle for some and for many others, simply a cruel fate based on economic necessity, poor career choice, abusive boyfriends or simple bad luck.
Denying the fact that many girls suffer from prostitution is silly. It is equally silly to say that all suffer... obviously many profit from it big time and go home laughing at the pathetic men that pay for the holidays, clothes, cars and presents for their real boyfriends.
I prefer my girls somewhere in between, and that's why I am generally quite choosy... often going to clubs and leaving alone because I didn't find anything I liked or any girl I got good "vibe" from.
It's all about keeping your eyes open. And if need be, wallet in hand.
The observation is really the connection
This is what tipped me off, look at this

Observeration writes in this post [url]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showpost.php?p=558244&postcount=2527[/url] "that is not sexy"
That is not sexy is the name of the web site the connection posts in this post [url]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showpost.php?p=559003&postcount=2537[/url]
And look at the way Cruiser uses the word connection so much. Probably another alias.

The "Knight in Shining Armor-syndrome"?
[QUOTE=Cruiser D]Myself, the good Doctor and 109 - who combined have probably fucked more prostitutes and women in general then you could think is possible in your dreams . . .[/QUOTE]My o my. Now I am really impressed! What are going to reveal in your next post? The combined size of a certain body part of you and your friends?
[QUOTE=Cruiser D] . . .Now just stop going on and on about nothing and concentrate about your occasional whoring trips to Kiev when you can get away from the wife. If you continue on and on about this you Will crash and burn. If it will make you feel better we will say the real victims of prostitution are the girls and Fido Dido.[/QUOTE]Sorry that you get upset about what I write. But please don't start answering with nonsense. Just put me on your ignore list.
Now some words to [b]One O Nine[/b]
Please read very carefull what I did write. And please try not to be the "Knight in Shining Armor"[QUOTE=Fido Dido]Prostitution is not sympatic.

These girls know what they are worth and they are not giving it away. They are in it for the money. Period!
I am very sorry, but I have no pity for them.
These recent posts say it all. No need to comment:
[QUOTE=Prosal]The myth of the expensive EE hoe selling herself for harsh necessity is BS and nonsense.

Some of you "experts'" seem to forget that prostitution is all about role playing. That's live theater, that's all.[/QUOTE][QUOTE=NeilSydney]I used to use Gia all the time prior to the 'Orange Revolution' in 2004. Back then, I felt 'ripped off' paying $70USD for 2 hours but was always very happy with the service, so I was a returning customer. This always included bbbj and in many cases anal...ah, sweet Larisa, wish she was around still.
Now as I return to Kiev, 3 years later, I am saddened by the new pricing. Its now often 140-150usd for 2 hours and sometimes you have to pay additional $10-20 for bbbj, cim, things like that. And anal is no longer available.
I can understand the market changes, and it has been 3 years. But what made Gia my favourite years ago was that it was reliable and yet cheaper than other agencies, albeit some of the women weren't quite as good looking. But now, what is there to distinguish between Gia and using others? I guess I'll answer this question in a few weeks time.
And the thought of what RP girls might be charging nowadays (quoting 200-300usd 3 years ago).....its scary.[/QUOTE]
