    Stay away from it

    The job as you call it is as a prostitute. You should stay away from it.

    If you need money, you should sell your possessions - not your body. Try getting a few quid for that fish tank.

    The tank was a present from parents to my son
    I sold the old tank and am selling filter.

    When someone works in a factory - what are they selling? Their time and their body. When someone works on a farm, shovelling horse crap....same deal.

    Lots of people do dirty, unpleasant jobs. You can only sell so many possessions and that's only a short-term solution.

    If I had money - I would stay at home and play video games/travel/enjoy life. But I don't. So I sell my time and my body for a paycheck. There is no shame in any honest job. As long as everyone involved is happy to pay (IE you aren't robbing someone or committing fraud) I don't see any problem.

    There is plenty of places in the world where the sex trade is legal. Eg Germany, Spain, Netherlands and even Toronto. Women choose to work at that job and get well paid. They have no shame in what they are doing. The sex industry in those countries work as the women are in control. They are all self-employed and generally work from designated brothels.

    OP if you want to become escort do it. But make sure that you are the one in control. You are basically setting your self up with a pimp and putting yourself in danger. There are thousands of women working in the sex trade in Ireland with no issues at all. There is stories of escorts in the irish times a couple of months ago. Where there are middle aged women working as escorts and able to sort their lifestyle and children.

    Yes, because working in Supermacs for 7 euro per hour is so much more respectable, rewarding and fulfilling. If I was a good looking woman, I'd seriously consider escorting.

    Its not legal in Ireland so there are no safety measures or regulations in place , tread carefully my dear its a risky business , stay safe and be careful who you let into your life ,not only for your sake but more importantly for the sake of your children . Research as much on the topic as possible before you make any decision .

    Btw your boyfriend doesnt sound like he deserves you if you have to consider escorting to
    keep him .

    Escorting trends to come hand in hand with depression, personal worth issues and frankly difficulty leaving the profession.

    If you are being paid 2-300 euro per hour, it will be hard to turn that down. But what happens in 5-10 years time when you can't/won't do it anymore? Suddenly you have a very big CV gap with no explanation.

    I seem to recall a blog by an escort in Dublin. She was fairly intelligent and not being forced in, but she made the problems very clear..
    Google should find it

    Wrong, the paying/ offering of sex for cash though is absolutely 100% legal.

    What is not legal is organised brothels, middle men, kerb crawling, on street solitication and the likes.
    Its easy to get the difference mixed up in what is allowed and what not, but there is a difference.

    Fair enough but that doesnt take away from the fact that its a much riskier business to be in in Ireland than a country where it is REGULATED and safety measures are in place to protect the workers .

    There is a powerful, well-funded lobby group fighting to make sure prostitution stays unregulated and that harm reduction safety measures are not instituted on behalf of sex workers, google "Turn Off The Red Light".

    Advice plz


    Do not .. Do not do it at alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll.
    Go to social...

    You are on boards.ie which tell me you have access to computer, internet and can easily find a at least a data entry job or even better if you can work from home as virtual assistant.. Not financially, but I can help you on this. I will train you for a decent respectable job over Skype /phone. You can work from home and still earn a decent money for you and for your kids.

    Please please do not go into this job at alllllll.....

    So you're thinking about doing this for your boyfriend's future, but he can't know because presumably he'd break up with you if he found out (and he will find out).
    Seems illogical to me - doing something for your bf which will result in him not being your bf.

    Why doesn't he get his own job btw?

    I just had a peek at the website , unbelievable that some people actually think such actions will actually reduce trafficking if anything (from what I saw ) it will just push it further underground and give complete control of the industry to the traffickers, anyway very misleading the way they present the "facts" , "prostitution and trafficking "

    There are solicitors , doctors , nurses you name it who have funded their education through escorting and would not be the success they are today if they hadn't, some people find it works for them and others not , its just a shame that it is still such a taboo in this country and remains unregulated and unsafe ,

    200_300 an hour?
    I used to work with a lad that used them. He told me he rings up and offers 50. Sometimes they hold out for 80.
    Its not Richard Gere calling its usually somebody that cant get it anywhere else who will haggle money with you and want use of a shower afterwards. This was during the good economy days.
    You will need to rent a seperate apartment and pay your website ads and probably lose your deposit on the apartment every month when you get moved on because the landlord had complaints that everyone from old men on mobility scooters to boisterous drunk 18 year olds are turning up all hours of the night.
    Its not far off a burger king wage once the regular whore going public have Al had a shot and you are sitting around waiting on the phone to ring.
    But you get to be your own boss when you are not being shouted at for refusing to do oral without or being told how to use your medicine by the sti doc.

    Hi this is something you really need to discuss with your bf. Whatever about the ethics or morals of escorting. There are serious health issues at stake. If you want run that gauntlet, fine. However, if you intend to remain intimate with your bf. Does he not need to know about your activities?

    As regards his not finding out? He will. A simple scenario. Something comes up, he needs to contact you. He rings your 'place of work' and they say, 'sorry sir, we do not know this person.'

    If this is something you want to do. You need to discuss it with him.

    Isn't this the same girl who got caught stealing in tesco and was worried about being deported?

    You really don't know how to keep out of trouble, do you? Do something decent with your life. What would your child think if he/she found out you had sex with strangers for money?

    I'm still calling troll on this girl though.

    So why should you become an escort for 'his future'. If your bf is putting you under so much pressure to earn money for him, to the point where you are considering prostitution, when it is none of his business since he doesn't even live with you - then maybe it's time to consider ditching the bf.

    If you want a job, get one for YOU and your children. Think about what you want and go after it. There are easier jobs out there rather than having sex with strangers behind your boyfriend's back ..... in order to give your boyfriend money.

    I don't want to hurt you, but that seems messed up. I feel so sad for you that your bf put you under so much pressure that you turned to asking strangers on Gumtree for a loan. I don't think that's a good idea either.

    Maybe book an appointment with your Social Welfare officer and see what options you have.

    First off prostitution isn't illegal in Ireland and even if it was the offer was for work as an escort, proving that this involves prostitution is harder than plain old kerb side solicitation or brothel keeping.

    Don't do it, having said all that, unless you have the right attitude and temperament, escort work is not as easy as it sounds. Forget the pretty woman stuff. This is sex your selling and sex brings out the worst in some people.

    You are right it is none of my business. I understand that. There are things in my own life that I regard as no one else's business. I expect most people on here are the same. But here's the rub we don't start posting on bulletin boards about them - Do you see? :rolleyes:
    He wants to make future plan, live together buy a mortgage and stuff. But for that I need. Job
    And if you don't get a job so that he can achieve his plan, he'll be off? It's hardly a true romance is it?
    GOT IT?
    I think so yes thank you. Unless you get a job or become a prozzie the love of your life will move on.
