Sad post - why I am on the verge of quitting

I feel sorry for her but people actually pay her for sex?

She can work at tims if she wants to....or any fast food.

Why would I ever pay a 55 year old for sex??!! Unless she looks like a fucking model there’s plenty of girls in Torontos agencies a third her age.

We need a section that teaches people how to reply without being a dick.

Right?

People with preferences that verge on pedophilia, love to voice their opinions about how "gross" it is that a man is interested in someone that isn't built like a teenage boy and just moved out of their parents house

There are still men that like women their own age. Theyre usually really smart, sexy and mature and women their own age adore them.

In your place, I would have either bought her some food and groceries, or given her some money (how she spends it is her choice).
But yes, I wouldn't have been able to go through with a session.
But then again, things like this need to be our screening criteria.
We are paying for fun. Don't wanna take on emotional baggage where I don't need to.

There are lots of survival workers. I would argue that there are more survival workers than there are high paid escorts that choose to do this.

I think there are higher paid escorts, and there are survival workers, and there are the workers in between... And then there are the workers who don't even know they're sex workers.

I would argue that if you combined all the women who engage in sex work but don't identify as prostitutes... And the survival workers they would outnumber, the higher paid or working class escorts.

As much as you don't like it. Unfortunately, you are providing them a source of income. You are providing them a way out of the situation that they are in.

You might not feel comfortable given the money, but someone else will. She's doing it safely. She's doing it online.

She's willing to do something in exchange for that money.

It's just a way of life for some people.

Myself included, i'm pretty consistent, but if I really need money for something, don't think that I don't advertise a little bit more heavily when money feels like it's getting tight or Christmas is coming. Lol.

There are plenty of people who would take advantage of her or who would treat her like shit. Just know that if you're a person that goes to someone like this and you treat them well and you treat them with respect. That's all they want. I don't feel like you're hurting anyone for seeking healthy services and I don't think she's hurting anyone by offering her services... But the men who seek out desperate women like this to treat them like crap are real human garbage.

Locanto is like the bottom of the barrel.

I'm not just saying it's the bottom while it's the barrel for sex workers. It's the bottom of the barrel for clients too.

If you wanna pick up clients with no etiquette and no common sense and they don't know how to act... You get them from locanto.

I had someone call me several times and I asked them to stop... They said they had no idea what I was talking about and that I needed to stop talking to them... Then they proceeded to try and book an appointment.

That's the type of riff raff you get off locanto.

I had someone try to trade me for an inflatable jacuzzi yesterday Locanto is fucking nonsense

Everyone has a story and we dont know what people are going through.

We would be absolutely stupid and ignorant if we believed that all providers want to do this and be in the profession.

While there are some that truly enjoy their profession, there are some that are here out of necessity.

Some for substance abuse and others just to live and survive. This poor woman is an example of the latter. I contacted her months ago form a listing that wasn't very descriptive and was going to set up a meet, except it was canceled because she had food poisoning from eating spoiled food.

She then messaged at a later point randomly to try and set up a meeting because she hadn't eaten in days.

Now I saw her today on the verge of homelessness. Over 50, down on her luck and likely little skill to make her employable. At least thats what I read from it.

I could not do it. While I won't give money away freely as I dont know where it goes, her story hit hard where I could not take advantage of her misfortune for my own personal gain. I even told her that. I was offline for months afterwards and have only seen mpas since.

I just saw her post today and again will be taking an extended break. My heart goes out to the woman who are just trying to survive and I hope there is a better way for you to do so while keeping your dignity.

Gebts, I hope look to this as an opportunity for compassion. If I did know more of the story honestly, it would just be a warm meal to be a good person.

Sorry for the somber post but again, this hits hard in todays climate.

I feel like this topic and post is complex and requires far more nuance than the vast majority of members on this board are willing to engage with.

We don't know her story, we don't know how she got here, what routes she has or hasn't exhausted, or what has made her feel like this is where she had to turn to. There is so much we don't know and it's far too much to begin to speculate on.

At its core, this post is simply asking us to put our judgements and opinions aside and remind us to be compassionate towards the women we all choose to see or not see. No need to speculate, share half-baked suggestions of advice, or cast judgments on her or what platform she chooses to advertise on.

I hope she is able to get whatever support she needs.

It's an emotionally charged, yet nuanced conversation to have. My view of sex work is that it's like any other kind of work, and everyone (except those on disability) has to work to survive. There are plenty of people, men and women, who are homeless, either by their own making, by circumstance, or by the evil doing of others. And plenty of people in a job they'd rather not have, simply to make ends meet.

What makes it more nefarious in sex work is merely the lack of visibility, which makes it ripe for exploitation. Exploitation is why the legislation needs to change to bring the industry more into the light.

This woman sounds like she has some mental issues and that makes her vulnerable to immoral clients. I wouldn't have gone through with it either, because I'm repulsed at the thought of taking advantage of someone mentally ill, though I probably would have given her enough money to eat for the day and added a night to her motel stay. And I hope she gets the help she needs. She DOES live in Canada, where those resources are more readily available than the vast majority of the world.

There are always choices out there. It's the choices that we make that make us

I’m finding myself partaking less and less every month at this point but not for the reasons in this post. Between the rates steadily climbing for the level of talent and service I want and finding myself less horny for a bunch of reasons, I think I’ll just make going to the gym 3-4x a week my outlet for extra energy.

I’m not even averaging 2x a month at this point and I used to be no less than once every other week once upon a time.

I totally understand not wanting to give money. I have made that mistake before and people can hurt themselves. I have learned that gift certificates from grocery stores work. They may get traded or sold, but in the end, someone is getting fed. Thanks for sharing, I am not a FS guy…only like a massage once and in a while so i can help this person out with some eats.

^ That makes no sense. A grocery store gift card can be traded for stuff. It's not really helping out much and nowadays grocery stores sell alcohol.

Personally there's no need for this topic as it heavily relates to Locanto bottom dewellers because that's what that platform is about. If Locanto is all you know for sex services then I can see why you may feel down or depressed. Sounds like a "you" problem." Figure out your life or you may end up in the same boat as the ladies that post on Locanto.

Locanto posts should be banned outright. The amount of positive experiences
Coming out of using that website are so low that I’d rather not ever see this stupid ass website mentioned.

I use to see a couple of working girls that worked out of their storage locker and I would bring them to the McDonald's across the street to make sure they had something to eat.
