Going back to the OP, I definitely think there are negative effects of porn and while I wouldn't call it a real addiction I was pretty hooked when I was younger...
To this though I'm hardly surprised. But then, they are getting paid decent money. In fact sometimes very good money. Most people hate their work, those that earn more can be expected to be put under more stress/distress/pain than those who earn less, although I appreciate there are many cases where this is the opposite. I had a girlfriend who was previously an underage stripper and I was seeing a girl who's best friend was (and still is) an escort, with a young child. They weren't forced, they know/knew the risks and they did it for the money and that's about as much experience of "the industry" I have. Bad for some, not for all, and it'll be around until we've all blown each other into oblivion (in a non sexual way) |

EXACTLY. I remember a quote (Hermione, you probably know the one I'm speaking about) and the girl is talking about all of the work she's done including sex work and customer service. She talks about how badly people treated her and how they looked down on her and at the end, you find out she was talking about the customer service job.
Have any of you ever worked customer service?? People act like you should be bowing at their feet. I remember when I worked as a customer service attendant, and a customer rushed me, yelling at me because her kid's bus was about to be at its stop. She was yelling at ME because she was gonna miss the bus!!! And the coworkers there were gross and gossipy and horrible people. I was sexually harassed so much and no one did anything about it. Most jobs are like this, too, so you can't just pick out one position and be like WOW IT MUST BE SO HORRIBLE. |

Everyone has some target group of hatred where they work, if it's not the people you specifically work with "In the office" then there are others. Mine are student's parents, usually the parents of spoiled little pricks who can't sort their own lives out who constantly demand information I can't give them. The acts I hate, usually asking people for death certificates for whichever family member they have listed (some students use "bereavement" to get extra time on deadlines etc so we need to do this, but in the genuine cases you can't help but feel like a complete c***. |

Cater to weird fetishes, there is literally a fetish for everything. I had a burping line not too long ago where a guy would pay 100 bucks just to hear me on the phone burping for 10 mins lmao. I basically only have one client atm but he pays like 500 to see pictures of the soles of my feet or for me to make videos of me scraping dead skin off my feet Your views on this are really refreshing to hear, especially since this thread is full of patronising wank that's based on bullshit articles rather than actual experience or knowledge and it is so tedious to have to deal with this bull**** as much as I do |

Thanks, yeah I just try to base my views on whatever close up experience I have which isn't much in this case. I'll be honest I haven't checked out the bulk of this thread but I guess it is a topic where people can make some pretty sweeping generalisations or feign empathy and the like. |

wtf???? Sex work is real work, people just don't seem to grasp this. We're not selling our sexuality, we're selling others and it's ****ing irritating to be condescended to about our choices. My being a dominatrix was empowering and probably saved my life, because it empowered me to finally leave my ex, when our relationship was so ****ed up and he was so abusive I probably would have drank myself to death |
