Looking at it from a very simplistic perspective I'd say no. Which if anything just proves the illegality of prostitution to be somewhat absurd. Don't take money for sex but take money for dinner then sex.

The difference is nothing but a loophole.

It's ridiculous really, they should just legalise it and then they can tax it as well as regulate it and make sure that the workers are safe.

I think sex isn't supposed to be involved in Escorting?

No Shaun

a Hooker
is not a Escort.


Its like saying Poundland is M&S

Same thing really IMO. Yeah apparently sex isnt part of the deal with escorts, maybe a select few actually stick to that rule, but I know girls who have been 'high class escorts' and they always ****ed the guy for extra.

I dont really get why prostitution is illegal anyway. Its really not that much different to going out to a bar, allowing a guy to buy you some drinks, then going home with him :/

Not quite.

guys don't tend to take Escorts out for dinner, to functions etc and sex is not always a 'given' either.

At least from where I'm living 'escorts' is just a loophole. Driving down to the docks and getting a brasser is against the law here but you can get them online where they are dubbed as 'escorts' and it's certainly all about sex. I imagine she'd look at you pretty funny if you offered her up a bit of garlic bread and salmon before the youse got down to brass tacts.

I remember escorts.ie being some weird revelation to me years ago. I couldn't believe it was so easy and out there and legal whereas it becomes illegal as soon as you take it off the internet. Crazy.

It's super overpriced though. I recall it being like 250 quid to get dominated. Maybe for my birthday.

I somehow don't see a businessman who needs/wants a female to accompany him to a business function, picking up some hardened hooker off a dockside and her quite making the grade, do you?

On the subject of prostitution - I have no idea why it's illegal. It's completely bizarre. Sex sells - it should be made legal, safe, controlled, monitored and taxed. Sometimes the Western World lives in the dark ages.

Make that 20 quid and you have a deal.

That's not what escorting is here. Like I said I'm speaking from a local perspective. Official escorting for lack of a better term has been reduced to dust and in it's place a prostitution industry using the term as a legal loophole.

Tight arse!

And I too am speaking from a local perspective where I am, and with regards to the difference between escorts and prostitutes.

[Vicky.]

I doubt there is many men who will pay over the odds for someone to accompany them on a business meeting who will not expect something else too :/

Obviously there will be a few. But I would expect it is extremely rare.

So why bother pointing out to me the flaw in my thinking then when it was a remark on locality and rooted in fact? It would be like me quoting your original post and saying 'well actually that's not what escorting is I think'. It's obvious to me that this is another improvised response because you tried too quick to catch someone out again.

My head hurts. It just never ends does it. 'And it was my opinion too'. We know, yeah. Smashing stuff.

For the same reason that you bothered pointing it out to me again. Okay for you to do but not me? I see......

Pointed what out to you? I didn't point anything out to you.

Doesn't negate that it still exists though.

Oh I know that

Its just...Im pretty sure escorts know, that while it doesnt quite say it on the tin, sex is very likely, if not certain, to be a part of their job.

Escort is just a more pleasant way of saying glorified prostitute with extra perks, such as dinner.

So back to square one why bother pointing out to me the flaw in my thinking then when it was a remark on locality and rooted in fact? It would be like me quoting your original post and saying 'well actually that's not what escorting is I think'.

*sigh*

It's only through putting that post together that I remember your insane ability to create an argument from nothing. To hell with it. You are making me sound riddiculous and I'm giving in to you which is my fault.

In many cases yes. My point is that picking up some hooker from a dockside is not the same as arranging an intelligent, educated, well dressed woman who is and will be comfortable and able to act appropriately in certain social situations that require her to mix with others known to the person she is escorting.

Not quite the same deal and a quick wham, bam, thank you man and here's your £20, get out my car.

Oh yeah, its a different kinda scenario, no disputing that
