Sex Industry Workers

[navigaytion]

What is your opinion of these careers (stripping, porn, prostitution, escorting, etc.)?

For those of you who had the body and the confidence, would you do it?

More importantly, could you date and/or get seriously involved with someone who's been in, or is currently in, that industry?

I think it's brilliant.

I would and I have.

Yes.

 

[asu1117]

My opinion of people that work in those sort of jobs is pretty neutral.


I would never do it, but that doesn't mean I judge people that do. And I'm certainly thankful that plenty of hot guys make porn. However, I can't see myself dating someone that does.

 

[skips]

My opinion of those who make careers for themselves in that particular field is that they're just doing a job.

Surprisingly, I would not be interested in doing that type of thing for a living. Not that I have a problem with it, I just wouldn't want to be a performer.

I think that if there was chemistry between myself and the guy, then I would definitely give him a ride. At least I know he'd be good in bed...

Someone has to do it and they might as well get paid for it.

Ain't much different than being a trophy wife/girlfriend/boyfriend in a relationship built on spending daddy's cash.

I've hired escorts before to keep clients entertained, as well as for parties. Additionally, I've hired them myself as well to take to various black tie events when I haven't had a boyfriend to take. A good friend of mine in North Carolina is a high-class escort / sex worker. So no, I have no issues with it, assuming of course it's voluntary and not a sex slavery type thing which is far too common in the world.

I'm selling myself, my brains, and my marketing savvy to clients everyday. Escorts and sex workers are selling their bodies, brains, and beauty every day too. Blue collar workers are selling their time and skill for an hourly wage. We are all prostitutes in some form or another.

What is your opinion of these careers (stripping, porn, prostitution, escorting, etc.)?

To each their own. I understand enough to see the difference between these professions (in some cases, a big difference). If the individual wants to go into any of these forms of business, well, I wish them the best.

Since we are on a gay porn website right now, I'm guessing most people will agree.

For those of you who had the body and the confidence, would you do it?

Nope, just not my thing.

More importantly, could you date and/or get seriously involved with someone who's been in, or is currently in, that industry?

I doubt it. Not because of the profession itself, but because those who are attracted to it are most likely running in a very different social circle than I am.

Of course, I could be pleasantly surprised, meet a great guy, hit it off, and then find out he did/does stripping, which I could deal with, but anything involving full-on sex acts? Not so much.

I hope you don't really believe this, and you are just making a rhetorical argument.

 

[navigaytion]

Once when this question arose before, I said that I thought there was something noble about escorting. Only one other JUBber really understood.

I still feel this way.

Could you please explain?

You must be really naive then.

You never heard of a partner withholding sex to get what they want? Happens a lot more than you think.

So...are you comparing that to being in the sex industry, and saying that the two situations are synonymous?

what MoltenRock III said.

If you have the body why not use it.
If you have big voice as a good singer why not use it.

 

[Gatorguy]

I'm with MR3. We all use our talents to earn a living. I see no difference at all between scraping moles off the elderly as a dermatologist and giving lap dances.

I'd date either as well.

Well, I see a huge, glaring difference between them. But, oh well.

If I had the body (I don't, and never have), I could easily do modeling or stripping. Prostitution I would not do, or escorting. Porn, maybe, if it didn't involve actually sex acts. I'd be too afraid of diseases to do that.

 

[wilbur33]

If I had the body (very unlikely, but it's a rhetorical question) and the confidence, yes to stripper/model but no to porn/prostitute/escort. I don't have issues with these jobs, but like any other job, it's not for everyone. I'm a very emotional person, so I wouldn't be able to handle the meaningless sex.

As for dating, once again it's yes to stripper/model but no to everything else. And once again, it's because of my emotions - even though he is only doing it for money, not love for the other person(s), I'd still be jealous and hurt that he was having sex with other people and I wouldn't be able to handle it.

I'd say being a trophy wife/husband is far worse than being a sex worker

you're lying to someone, telling them you love them, when all you love is their $

at least sex workers are honest about their motivation

Some great responses in this thread so far! MoltenRockIII said it best of all, and I liked the JohannBessler comment immediately after, and I have to say I agree fully.

Some of my answers to the original questions, will appear "in living color."

What is your opinion of these careers (stripping, porn, prostitution, escorting, etc.)?

I can't add to what MR3 said...it's merely the marketing of a skill that a person realizes that they have. And no question, it is very much a skill (and not all bodies and physiques are equally "qualified" for it).

For those of you who had the body and the confidence, would you do it?

No, it requires far more sexual diversity and flexibility than I've ever had. Being able to be aroused with a partner who may do absolutely nothing for you at all, is a skill that not all people have, but it's an important one and a lot of guys also "get off on" satisfying the other person. That feeling doesn't change if the other person is an escort/prostitute.

OK, just realized I was answering only half the question. If I had the body and the confidence, stripping would be the "easiest" of the alternatives. Porn would be more difficult than escort/prostitution in some ways, and easier in other ways. Porn usually requires a massive repertoire of sexual likes and turn-ons if the resulting porn is to be believable, but an escort can ask a customer ahead of time to be specific about what they want. (In these professions which involve sex with partners, the professional has the option not to include some practices that they may not like - usually the more exotic kink such as scat, extreme BDSM, fisting, etc.) Being a stripper is the only one of these I could have ever imagined doing myself, because my sexual tastes have always been excessively vanilla, and that can be extremely limiting within the profession. On the other hand, porn OFTEN/USUALLY involves partners which one is *likely* to find attractive and usually limited to a fairly narrow age and weight range, while with paid non-porn sex the physical attributes are a complete roll of the dice. In fact, with escorts/prostitutes, the partners are rather more likely NOT to be that physically "beautiful" because it's much rarer for the "gorgeous" guys to go out and pay for what they can easily get free.

More importantly, could you date and/or get seriously involved with someone who's been in, or is currently in, that industry?

I'm not even sure - it's one of those "cross that bridge when I get to it" types of questions. My first inclination is "no" but that's not a guaranteed answer. I'm maintaining an ordinary platonic friendship with an escort who I originally hired a few years ago.

Here in Greece many Asian Muslim illegal immigrants sell their sexual services to gay men that they may pay for a space to sleep on a carpet, along with others in a similar degraded position and feed themselves.

We need to distinguish between those who sell their services to earn money to address their fashion ambitions, buy electronic gadgets with fruity logos and others who are in dire need of eating a square meal.
