And here I had always thought it was because of the lack of sheep in metropolitan Philadelphia. :noidea:

Why did you give everyone a link, you dunce ? I thought this was going to be an open question to the Forums membership with a poll as to the reason men use prosty-toots.

I said for platonic companionship and a prostytoots conversational abilities above and beyond the typical chit chat at home.

In the words of a much older and wiser friend of mine: "you don't pay a prostitute for the sex--you pay her to go away afterwards..."


Seriously though--the article doesn't really address the paradox at the core. If prostitution were legal and more acceptable, would the customers have those feelings of shame, self-loathing or guilt, or at least to the same degree. It's a circular argument--"See, prostitution has to be kept illegal because people involved in it feel shame and guilt about it!"...

[How Brown]

Good point Magpie.

The shame and guilt involved with prosses...which is only realized,not surprisingly, after the proverbial wick has been dipped....forced our Sir Bob to think long and hard about it.

Not hooking up with hookers....but from being one. :spit:

Seriously, to get engaged with one on the streets today with all the diseases out there ( AIDS,syphilis, hamster scratch fever, creepin' gleet...oh, the list goes ever on !) you've gotta be worried that your Johnson doesn't blow up.

Sometimes men just need some "strange."

Don't look at me though. LOL
