Being a bully and a prostitute doesn't make Helen controversial, just sad.

Escort, and that's not something she wanted to do. It was a last resort.

Very well put JoshBB. Clearly there were plenty ready takers too.

A last resort because she grew up in a middle-class home and wanted to continue to live with a middle-class income, despite having no qualifications or skills? Yes, then I'd agree with that. Otherwise she could have done what my daughter's best friend's mum does (and countless other young single mothers do) and worked hard in three normal jobs and... y'know... not become a prostitute.

Is it fair enough that she would rather turn to prostitution than work harder for less money? I'd say it probably is. It's her body to do as she pleases with. But a "last resort" it clearly was not.

You do also realise that "escort" is simply a euphemism, right? It's a legal loophole. You're paying "for their time and company", not sex... it just so happens that it turns out they did want to have sex after all. Completely coincidentally, of course. Paid for sex = prostitute, by definition.
