I came across this thread while looking for something else and after reading through decided to impart my feelings and experiences. I for one do NOT look at a woman any differently because she works in this business and do not relate my experiences. I was fortunate enough to meet a therapist at a MP 8 years ago. I went back to see her over and over since we had a great time and sexually we clicked. I finally asked if I could see her outside the MP and to my surprise she agreed. What started out as a client , therapist relationship turned into a passionate love affair that lasted 6 1/2 years. She left the business, we moved in together and she confessed that she had also worked as an escort prior to working in the massage industry. I never asked any questions about her clients, experiences or anything to do with how and why she got into the business. Eventually she told me all I would have ever wanted to know and more. I never felt that she was different as a result of her experience and even though we are no longer together, we remain close friends. When I see her I never think of her as an escort, MP or any link to the business. I was raised to respect others no matter what thier station in life and I continue to live like that today, thank you Mum and Dad. I have gone back to seeing escorts for my own sexual needs and have the utmost of respect for them and the service they provide. They are human beings providing a service, they deserve nothing less than our respect. I know some of the men out there will scoff and think, fuck em, they are pieces of meat and don't deserve my respect, they have my money, do what I want! I feel sad for you and those around you, family and friends as you probably have no respect for them either.
