That’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it. Why gang up on you if you disagree?

It was meaningful in its day, but now it seems trite and campy.

And @Beancounter’s post: Please don’t insult our collective intelligence and think that “it’s escorting” will hold water in an actual case, with the IRS or the law on the whole. We all know what we’re about, and if found out, so would everyone else. It’s disingenuous to insist otherwise. This site evaluates people against sexual performance…Any lawyer will make the easy case that if money is exchanged during the escorting period and something sexual transpired and is evaluated based on sexual performance on an escorting site, it’s prostitution. So what we do here is participate in something that wants to pretend to be something it’s not officially but unofficially wants to insist upon norms and mores that something it pretends to officially be would require.

It is fine. My mother and I had a difficult relationship, we loved each other. I do appreciate your words, though. Thank you. It wasn’t always the healthiest relationship with her, but I feel her absence… Anyhow, we don’t have to dwell on that.

Yes. Sadly quality isn’t known at the time of money agreement talk. And like I said somewhere, maybe earlier in this thread, no one is getting a refund for unsatisfactory experience. I would pay more to have the peace of mind knowing that the experience will meet expectations.

I believe that was pointed out a few pages ago, but it does well to point it out again. I agree with you. But some may not.

I like the ones with the male symbol, ♂ Not excited about the rainbow anywhere.

And if they do report it, as some say they do through a business like personal trainer or life coach or whatever, that’s called money laundering. The penalties for money laundering are much graver than for prostitution. @Kevin Slater– Don’t shit on a plate and tell me it’s a chocolate covered brownie. If what you say is true, there’d be no one worried about VICE operations or the FOSTA-SESTA. We most definitely discuss it. Please don’t be disingenuous. If escorting is what is reported on schedule C as the business, then it’s not sex work that’s taxed. It’s escorting. Which, as you say is legal. But sex work is not. Sex work is a euphemism for prostitution. So…is sex work taxed or is escorting taxed?

Could you explain how prostitution is taxed?

More like golden sprinkler…

I expect you’d see a vital black market due to taxes, but also law enforcement much more interested in sex workers because of tax evasion. That’s my immediate thought. I doubt it would make the prices any less. If anything, it might make them higher as it’s sanctioned then. The black market may offer lower prices, but the “better” escorts who abide the law would be more expensive precisely because they can provide a legal option. A premium for legality, if you will.

This has made me squeamish.

Yes. People already suggested I was wrong in thinking that some guys would consider his lack of abs chubby and it was in fact his bulge. I suppose that’s valid, but I also believe it’s just as valid to maintain that many guys would find his physique chubby. We don’t have to agree.

At the risk of going off topic, I am a lexophile. I love words. They have personalities…each of them. There’s always a good word for every situation…You just have to know it – or create it. Language is a living thing and neologisms are the mutations of its DNA.
