Why Are Students Becoming Escorts?
When people think of sex workers, they tend to think of people in their late 20s or early 30s. They imagine someone who needs some extra cash, who perhaps works another job and does a little bit of escorting on the side. People tend to forget that sex workers come in all shapes and sizes, and that they can be anything from mature ladies to students. Continue reading Why Are Students Becoming Escorts?
Lib Dem Politician Forced to Resign Over Sex Work Comment
When there was a possibility that School Careers Offices could suggest prostitution as a line of work to pupils, Dennis Parsons, the chairman of Cheltenham Liberal Democrats introduced the notion that the idea shouldn’t be dismissed, and mentioned that something needs to be done to get rid of the stigmatisation of sex work. What came afterwards for Parsons were a lot of angry comments, counter attacks from his colleagues, and a resignation paper with his name written on it. Continue reading Lib Dem Politician Forced to Resign Over Sex Work Comment
The Celebrities Supporting Sex Workers!
The news is pretty horrifying lately. Barely a day goes by without a headline hitting the papers to say that the world we live in is in trouble. When it comes to the topic of sex work, it can be tough. People have their own assumptions about the industry and just what should be done with it. The problem is that most of those proudly and loudly declaring their opinions haven’t actually had any conversations with sex workers. They don’t actually know what would be best for the industry.

Man Dies During Sex: Prostitute Still Attached!
For pretty much every single one of us, the idea of dying during sex is a bit of a scary one. We might joke that popping it during orgasm is the way that we want to go, but never do we actually think that it is something that could happen. For one man, his romp with a prostitute turned, well, deadly, when he actually died in the middle of the hot and steamy sex session. Sounds pretty terrifying, doesn’t it? Would you believe that it actually gets worse? Continue reading Man Dies During Sex: Prostitute Still Attached!
Why Escorts Are Better Than One Night Stands
Most people have absolutely no idea about what the world of escorting is really like. The media has made them believe that it is just like ‘Pretty Woman’, and that most women in the job are there because they have no choice. They have been forced to sell their souls and their bodies to give abusive, horrid men satisfaction. Their clients are evil men who can’t be bothered taking a shower and going to the pub like a normal person. Instead, they want to pay for sex. This, of course, ignores the fact that the majority of escorts are doing it willingly. They are very select about the clients they see, and the clients know just how lucky they are to spend time with them. Continue reading Why Escorts Are Better Than One Night Stands
