This is true. I know a successful businesswoman who was a prostitute in order to help pay for college or grad school. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/21/2009 11:56:35 AM | I knew a few girls waaay back in my college days that hooked to pay for tuition/book/food/rent. They'd been cut off from family $$ help and they did what they had to do to get where they wanted to go. Working minimum wage at MacD's just doesn't cut it when you're going to Vet school.
So my question would be WHEN did the EX part of the ex-hooker come about? Last year? Yesterday?
Or 1982?
There's also a BIG diff between a high price call girl - usually extremely well educated, clean, tested, pick their own clients etc - and some crack wracked street skank who is likely HIV times every clade their is, client list of homeless also-skanks.
Ya, let those who are sinless cast the first stone. Lots of judges in here. Common sense plays a BIG part in an answer though. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/21/2009 1:14:14 PM | I'd have serious misgivings and would probably be disinclined to date one.
First, them street walkin or truckstop lot lizards are just fricken nasty!
Second, what would a high-priced call girl want with me?
It's hypothetically unlikely, in either case. | |

If you have fallen in love with a person, you are in love with their present self and the sum of their life experiences. If their life journey meant that they had to resort to desperate measures during desperate times, that's their business.
One would be surprised how many RESPECTABLE women have through necessity had to resort to histories oldest profession to survive.
All I can say is I feel sorry for the men who have to criticize and slander women who have had to make a difficult choice during their lifetime.
I would not go looking for one, but if I fell in love with someone who in the past had to make a difficult choice, it would make no difference. The person I would be in love with would include the sum of their life experiences. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/21/2009 3:15:28 PM | I love the white knights rushing to the defence of hookers in this thread.
Hey, sure, she might have had to make difficult choices. Sure, she might be an assertive and business-minded woman. Sure, many respectable women have done it.
But you know what? I don't care if she won the Nobel Peace Prize.
She still sold her hole. Sorry, no respect. Zero. Once you sink to that level, there's really no coming back up. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/21/2009 3:38:07 PM | No, I'd NEVER date an ex-prostitute.
And those who make a difference between a "cheap" hooker and a high-end one... what's the difference? A prostitute is a prostitute, no matter how much they charge. Period. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/21/2009 4:29:04 PM | | Did she quit, or was she fired? I'd be suspicious of a sex worker who was fired for incompetency. There may be something of an art to masterful sexual performance, but it doesn't take much to be merely good. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/24/2009 8:16:12 PM | Here's a spot of thought for all of you:
In 13th century France prostitution was not looked down upon. In fact it was considered to be a valuable public service (sorta akin to garbage men or police officers I suppose). If the prostitute had served her community well and for a long enough time, at around the age of 30-ish she could go to the local church and say that she wanted to quit 'the business'. They'd forgive her of all her sins and even set her up with a modest dowry. The catholic church would even find her a husband amongst the local bachelors/widowers. Men generally had no qualms about marrying an ex-prostitute because she was skilled in ways the more traditional wife wasn't and usually had good financial sense.
Just thought I'd put that out there; maybe give y'all something to think on.
Ta! | |

Sorry, just not my cup of tea. What the french did in the 13th century has no bearing on todays world. For me, NO WAY NO HOW. PERIOD. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/24/2009 9:46:34 PM | I grew up on the wrong side of the tracks and I knew girls and women that went into prostitution. Fact is they are human beings just like the rest of us and not "Them".
Being a past prostitute wouldn't bother me a bit but it's not all that likely a past prostitute would be attractive to me (regardless of whether I know her past or not). The business does things to your outlook on life and love and most of the women I knew that had been hookers have trouble trusting other people. As a psychological defense they often become cynical and adopt a "hit first so they can't hit me" attitude. I can't blame someone for this attitude and I'm pretty sure I would too if I'd lived that life but its just not attractive to me.
I don't have unprotected sex ( I actually like the tight feeling) but if I find that magic someone and want to ditch the protection then I'll insist we both get tested. Not because I don't trust her but because I don't want either one of us to kill the other and there are many ways to contract nasty diseases other than having sex. Clear the worries and doubts because doubts are the mind killer. | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/26/2009 1:05:35 PM | Interesting thread
similar to "would you date a pornstar"...
the answer to that is that there is no answer,
it is not a job that defines a woman, for me, it is who she is and how we are matched.
For example, should the following categories of professionals be relegated to never being in a committed relationship purely on the basis of their work?
1) (Male) gynaecologist.........Will he find my vagina clinically wanting? 2) Weapons engineer..............Will he/she make the weapons that could one day kill us? 3) Slaughterhouse operator...He/she kills animals for a living; I am a vegetarian. 4) Defence barrister for a convicted paedophile's appeal...Does he/she condone it?
Just food for thought...

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/26/2009 1:13:36 PM | | the key word is ex, dont judge a woman by her past, chances are she would be pretty passionate in bed; note i have never been with a prostitute, and i dont have 'casual' sex but long term is wonderful, so is a woman with some experience | |

| For The Guys- Would you seriously date an ex-prostitute? Posted: 6/26/2009 5:43:13 PM | Why would I want to date a woman who I knew gave of herself (and her soul) to countless men all for the sake of the almighty $$$? Why would I want to date a woman who I know that its "in her blood" to want (need?) to do it again, maybe next time to utterly devastate the man she is with? (which would be me if I got involved with her) Why would I want to date a woman who knowingly took advantage of mens needs in the name of making a buck? Why would I want to date a woman who chose this Profession over any other profession?
MOST IMPORTANT!!!! Why would I want to do this when there are so many nice women out there looking for a nice man to want to build a future with?
There's a saying about guys who gamble, "once a gambler, always a gambler". Also about alcoholics and cheaters. Its in the blood and stays there. I wouldn't take a chance under any circumstances. Not judging..just stating my position and my feelings. FOR ME: NOPE..NOT FOR ME...NO WAY NO HOW. THE END! | |
