Morgan, you know what I think? I think he made these statements because if someone like himself had a job that paid above average wages and he had to down-grade to the "real world" wages, he'd probably lose it. He wouldn't know what to do with himself so assuming that someone making "tax-free" cash that some don't even see in one paycheck would obviously not be able to handle a "real" 9-5, 45% tax cut and health benefits. I'm being funny. What he doesn't realize is that he's not an SP and he doesn't know a damn thing about what SPs do while they are SPing and what they can do after they leave the business. Could it be that some may think it's so easy to be a SP in the first place? That SPs couldn't make it in the "real world" in the first place so they became SPs? Could be but I would be an ASS to assume he's one of these.Morgan Ellis said:

You really can't assume that all women in the business are "crack and or shopping addicts". Thank you Moragn for your comments you're proof that there are level head SP's out there. I've met a few in my 9 years of hobbying.Morgan Ellis said:

Actually, there is a rumour that a certain well known GTA mayor used to be a call girl way back (and I mean way back) in her day.red said:

.That could be a possibility but I highly doubt it. If I did find out that she was an actively working SP that would be the end of it. No mater how you look at it that's cheating. Having sexual encounters with strange men regardless if it's for work it's cheating. If you knew about then it wouldn't be cheating.Morgan Ellis said:
Bingo! Thank you!DoingWhatIDoBest said:
I think ppl are just jealous because SP's are making so much money. Mean while you've got people busting their asses off to make an honest buck. Fortunately I'm not one of them. I've got my own thing going and I couldn’t be happierjazzy_doll said:

I think I'll take my chances in Oz thank you. There are so many things I hate about the GTA it's not just the women here.Morgan Ellis said:
I base my comments on my own interaction with SP's both personally and professionally. As far as a scientific study - obviously not, but I'm sure your comments have no scientific support of any kind either. That is what this board is about, opinion stated in a format for discussion. With respect to your comment that SP's are "crack addled, shopping addicted head cases who can't hold down a day job or a relationship," based upon the SP's I know and call friends, none are addicted to the stereotypic vises you so easily label.Morgan Ellis said:
Although your rebuttal is nonsensical, I will try to respond. You are correct in that I am not a SP but I know a fair number of them who have confided in me for assistance. I have no doubt certain SP's could become high paid executives in the real world but the question is why don't they try? I respectfully submit the answer is the fast and easy cash available in this business. A lot of SP's claim they are in the biz to obtain money for education, shelter, family, etc and those are certainly noble reasons. In reality, again based on my own non scientific interaction, although they start out with that in mind many (not all) choose to stay on the path simply to raise as much cash as possible for other things. Many (not all) who are in the biz a long time might tend to pick up bad habits - drugs, alcohol, etc and the money disappears. I have the utmost confidence that most SP's have the ability to pick whatever career they want outside this business. The question resolves itself into do they really want to do something else based upon the pay scale they are currently on taking into account the "tax free" status as you so aptly state.DoingWhatIDoBest said:Morgan, you know what I think?

I guess I won't be invited to your house for Easter dinner. Too bad, it would be an interesting interaction. You state I have no experience. Well, if the litmus test for having experience is being a SP - then I agree. On the other hand, my experience is in my interaction with current and former SP's. One can learn a lot from such a diverse group. I don't have pity for SP's as you suggest - it is a choice one makes as is the hobby itself. As far as your comment that SP's lack intelligence, nothing can be farther from the truth. I view SP's as having a tremendous amount of "street smarts" and even though I have many years of education, I personally would take "street smarts" over academics any day of the week. Sasha, think about Easter Dinner - I'll bring the wine!Sasha Jones said:I'm belittling the SP crowd? Are you kidding me?
You make a post such as yours, assuming that most former SPs have a hard time merging into society and you say I am belittling?
Sweetheart, the only bitterness I have toward this business is because of idiots like you who assume the facts without having any experience whatsoever. Oh those poor ex-hookers must be having such a hard time getting used to living in the 'real world'. Hey here is a secret for ya, we have been living in the so called 'real world' all along, just like you
There are MANY women in this business who are far more intelligent than you could imagine, just because we sell our bodies for money does not degrade us into the lower ranks of society.
I absolutely LOVED working as an SP but as with everything else in life, things change and other facets of my life became a priority.
There are likely 10x more women in society that are having a harder time adjusting to living in the real world that have never even thought of becoming SP's than those who have actually been SP's.
Like I said, I'm not bitter, I just wish more people would pull their heads out of their asses once in a while.
