turns out that the media’s display that men only want sex doesn’t quite turn out to be true, after all
Comment on Playing therapist isn’t fun.

I’ve heard that’s actually pretty common among sex workers

Depends on the media. Secret Diary of a Call Girl absolutely shows this aspect of it, and is an amazing show.

Even as sex workers women cannot escape being expected to take care of men’s emotions. At least they are getting paid for it.

Yeah! I for one am also sick of being supportive of my partners, next time she tells me about her life experiences or how she had a hard day I’m going to tell her I’m not her therapist and it isn’t my responsibility to take care of her emotions.
Actually I’ll continue being supportive because I’m a good person but I couldn’t miss the opportunity to make fun of the “woe is me, men want to be treated like humans too” bullshit.

They should consider raising their hourly rates.

It is, and it’s by far my least favorite part of the job.

Understandable, I too prefer sex over trauma

To be fair, my area of expertise is the girlfriend experience, so I understand how venting could be part of that. Still, I find the trauma dumping exhausting.

Wait so the “girlfriend experience” is more than just sex?
God see this is why I never bother to figure out how to find escorts. I don’t have time to figure out how it even works

How about trauma-dumping-less chatter? Just some friendly chatter. Good ol’ wholesome interaction. Just chillin together. No trauma, just hanging out. Just a… friendly thing. Wonder if that’s common, and how one feels about it

The girlfriend experience is essentially my bread and butter. I genuinely love it. It’s actually one of the main reasons I got into escorting in the first place, the human connection.

Oh, what is the girlfriend experience, exactly? Just… act the part? As a girlfriend? Honestly, as someone who’s never been in a relationship, not sure what that would entail. Hanging out? Going to movie theaters? What exactly makes someone a girlfriend vs. a girl friend, a gal pal, a woman friend?

How long are you obligated to listen to these guys after sex before you can say, “And that’s our time.”
genevieve@sh.itjust.works 1 day ago
For as long as they’ve paid for. They pay me thousands $ per hour, I perform flawlessly until the end and provide a quality service. I have a reputation to uphold.

Everyone’s job has its difficulties. What are the difficult parts of sex work for clientele that can afford this?
Zwiebel@feddit.org 1 day ago
Now I’m curious about the pay, may I ask how much you were able to take as a beginner vs now? :D I have no clue how much prostitutes actually take either, even though it’s a perfectly legal job here it’s like a parallel world my sheltered ass has no contact with

All I needed after I creampied her was a big hug and a long kiss and then went our separate ways and then sexted about it until next time
We both ducked to forget our problems for 20 mins not focus on them !
