I've heard college education is getting expensive, but this is really ridiculous.

Regards, Ivan

"Sex workers" sounds so...so....communist, so Eastern bloc, so 1984-ish.

Even "working girl" sounds better. Or "sporting woman". Or "fancy woman". Or "streetwalker". Or "call girl".

said women told her they had been impressed by films such as Pretty Woman that make the lives of sex workers appear glamorous. Like Julia Roberts, who plays the prostitute heroine, they hope to meet a rich man who will whisk them away to a comfortable life abroad.

ah,hollywood moral values exported,and fools believe it.

Reminds me of a dumb joke:

TEACHER: Students, I want you to use the word horticulture in a sentence.

STUDENT 1: You can lead a whore-to-culture but you can't make her think.

Somehow, this fits doesn't it? I mean, more concerned about getting the money than the condom and all. Nothing particularly new to the profession, but displays lack of thinking of the future for sure.

Trollop, Tramp, Harlot.


That's the spirit!

All of those are better. "Sex Worker" put me in the mind of "Coffee Taster" for some reason. You know, those people who taste and spit?

That was Dorothy Parker asked to use horticulture in a sentence at the Alqonquin Round Table in New York in the 1920s.

From this week's Onion

Stripper Failing School She's Working Self Through

LAS VEGAS—Exotic dancer Tricia "Mercedes" Hrlevich, 22, who is stripping to put herself through school, is failing her Red Rock Community College business classes, sources said Tuesday. "I definitely want to do something with, like, business," said Hrlevich, who has received Fs on three straight economics exams. "Dancing at Cheetah's [Gentlemen's Cabaret] is just a way of getting closer toward that goal." Hrlevich then accompanied a balding 54-year-old to the Champagne Room, where she earned $60 toward a Psych 101 textbook she will never read.

Maybe some day you folks will explore the meaning of "capitalism". (Hint: it isn't always something you like).
