Ladies your opinions on men using brothels and prostitutes

You could go online - there are plenty of websites where you can find willing like minded people for NSA encounters.

I'm no expert on those sites, but from what I gather there are a lot of married women on them. So yes, the person may be willing but there's a good chance she will be a woman who is not in an open marriage.

Go to another city for a weekend and take your chances in clubs and bars. If you are reasonably attractive your are pretty much guaranteed to score.

That is not true. It's not always as simple as that.

I'm sure you use protection already but it is imperative to use protection in your situation.

Escorts are often 'cleaner' than a girl who has lots of one night stands.

I'm not advocating the use of escorts, just pointing out that things are not always as simple as they seem.

Someone I know once worked for a fuel company delivering gas, briquettes, etc. He and the other men on the trucks would often be offered sex instead of cash by college students. This was common enough that the men had coined the phrase "flesh for cash" to describe the offers they received. On one occasion the person I speak of had hauled a cylinder of gas up two flights of stairs to the door of an apartment, his knock was answered by a college student wearing nothing but a pair of panties who asked him how he wanted to be paid.

If you can't get a women without paying for it then you deserve to be celibate.

I'll certainly be sure to take advice from some who thinks it's all about "getting" a woman.

Threads like this and a similar one on the ladies lounge depress me. I and many other women don't agree with prostitution. No matter where we post here we are continually shouted down by a pro-prostitution lobby who are determined to reduce what should be an intimate act between consenting adults to a cold transaction.

Some men seem to think that they have a right to purchase sex when and where they choose if their wife doesn't "put out" or if they are away with the lads.

I don't know who or what is driving the agenda that a woman's body is nothing more than a piece of meat which can be purchased at whim by whoever chooses to do so. Anybody who disagrees is shouted down. Anti-trafficking organisations and organisations who rehabilitate traumatised prostitutes are also denigrated.

The pro-prostitution lobby has a very strong voice and I suspect that some of the "happy hookers" who post here and elsewhere are actually pimps. I also suspect that there are more female pimps than people might think. I find it hard to believe that escorts love their work and are happy to service all their clients. Any woman who goes to a club or bar would not be happy to accept all the offers she gets, indeed sometimes she isn't happy to accept any of them. The escorts who post here give the impression that their clients are all nice clean respectful George Clooney types who they love to service.

I am no longer going to post on threads about prostitution even though I oppose it. The reason is the pro-prostitution lobby have boards and other discussion media sewn up. If I had a daughter I would be very worried and any woman who goes along with the "prostitution is ok" thinking is being brainwashed.

Younger women are particularly vulnerable and I think they are more likely to feel their body is something they can sell. Case in point: the students who are reportedly offering payment in kind to tradesmen. Why do they think it is ok to do this? In my student days that was unthinkable for most people. Escorting is being glamorized and gullible young women think it's all right to put their bodies up for sale.

I think its a little unfair to posters who are not necessarily in favor of prostitution, to call them a pro-prostitution lobby.

I don''t believe in the prohibition of any service/activity, providing it is among consenting adults, who are aware of all the relevant facts.

Discussions of trafficking and suchlike have no place in a discussion about prostitution per se. They skew the discussion, much like talking about addiction when discussing drug use.

Who says sex with an escort isn't intimate? How much more intimate can you get?
I think you mean 'romantic', or 'special' rather than intimate. And with all due respect, some people like their sex freaky, maybe with an audience, maybe with a group of participants.

If you like your sex vanilla, as many do, by all means go for it.
But try to appreciate that there are lots of perspectives different to your own

Are you surprised that everyone on Boards doesn't share your outlooks, morals and standards?

Of course not. I am surprised that so many people seem to be in favour of women's bodies being bought and sold.

You do realize that women have a mind of their own and can think for themselves?

My logical self says that what is outlined above is clearly the way to go. I really honestly try not to be judgemental and I know I've no hang ups about sex itself. In fact the position that Fluorescence outlines would have been my default for a long time. Then I discovered the Escort Ireland website.

Being a curious soul I had a nose about. I was kind of morbidly fascinated by the whole thing. In the past, I'd always kind of envisioned the guys who used prostitutes as being kind of desperate (judgemental perhaps, but I'm being honest), but for the most part fairly harmless. What I saw on that site actually disturbed me; the way the people on the website talk about the escorts that they use utterly shocked me. Clearly I was naïve but 'reviews' were totally dehumanising. These escorts were discussed in the same kind of terms and ways as I might discuss a new set of headphones. There is no way on earth you could convince me that these 'punters' (there is a whole 'in' language used) have an ounce of respect for the escorts they are using.

Browsing that website put a new spin on things for me and it did change my opinion on those who use these kind of services. I no longer see it as harmless for the most part, but here is the thing; I think it is damaging for both escort AND punter. I'm sure there are exceptions. I'm sure plenty of people think I'm wrong, and that is fine. I'll accept that I might be. I'm just being really honest when I say that I do judge those who use escorts regularly in more negative light now.

Completely agree. When I looked through that website and the forum I actually felt sick.

Is it your place to stop a woman selling her body for sex if she should choose to do so?

Can you not say the same for drugs? If some druggie wants to buy heroin and sit in a corner injecting it why is it against the law? Is it not their choice to do what they want to ther body?

It absolutely should be.

Its against the law for a variety of reasons, none of which are particularly sensible.

I do think that's a different story however, in that it requires at least the facilitation by a third party. Prostitution is simply two adults doing something with their own bodies.
