i_am_a_prostitute Ginger And I'm not ashamed. This life suits me. I know I can get what I want from it and quit when the going is good. I'm not a drug addict or a streetwalker. I can choose to turn down a client if I don't feel right about it. This money I make, so much of it, simply by giving over my body to the pleasure of others, will get me through school, enable me to write when I want. The only thing that hurts me is society's scorn. I can feel the reader's of this bristling now, ready to tell me what terrible trouble I'm getting myself in, as if they knew everything about me, as if their job helping some big corporation to rape the world was a more moral choice. It shouldn't hurt me but it does. So I'm building up the calluses. I'm not hiding it any more. When people ask what I do, I'm going to tell them. Sure, I'll lose some friends, cause some major league dropped jaws at dinner parties but I've made my choice and I'm NOT going to live a lie. I fuck for a living. Get used to it, move on. 030725 ... john got a menu? 030725 ... daring to bare I for one don't see a problem with this. It's a choice made of you own free will that should have no affect on any other persons. You have the option of being selective, and as long as you follow some manner of occupational health and safety standards I see nothing wrong at all. I have to admit, it's something I've thought about doing myself, but I don't think it's really for me, though sometimes I still look at those 'girls wanted' ads in the paper and think how easy and quick it could be. How is this really that different to being commissioned to paint a picture, or sculpt a piece of art, or make a film? People are paying for your talents, talents that require something of yourself, an intimate display. As long as you are in control of your situation then I say go for it. Kudos to you. 030725 ... secret_dream_guy marry me wont u? but u have to give up your job when u do 030726 ... Ginger Dream is right sweetheart. 030811 ... Ginger And to you daring to bare: - I would never dream of encouraging anyone else to make the choices I've made. The one piece of advice I have I think you already know: Know exactly what you're doing at all times and never allow yourself to be out of control. Not even for a second. 030811 ... Ginger Oh yeah, and if anyone's following this one...the score so far is: 3 jaws dropped 1 friend lost 1 friend I never knew I had 1 new friend I'm not sure I trust (more about them later...) Feeling about 20 lbs lighter. 030811 what's it to you? who go blather from
