I quite like the word PROSTITUTE and commonly refer to myself as such, (or a filthy whore- depending on my mood) however when someone else was to use such a term it is usually done as a negative, and nobody has the right to put me down without my permission.

Hi Sophie, well put!!!!
I think that punters and wgs know that the word prostitute is just a job description and stops with work. in no way does it describe the person. Unfortunately, people outside of punters and wgs use the word much like a branding iron. Describing a person as a prostitute is judgemental, unjust and bigoted.
A prostitute exchanges physical and or mental experiences for money and or favour. Society rates this as sordid, low esteem and largely unacceptable.
A psychologist practising in sex therapy exchanges physical and or mental theories and answers for money. Society rates this as healthy, high esteem and acceptable.
I know who i'd rather see,

Quote:I don't like the term 'sex worker' either, mainly because there's a lot more to my job than sex. Alongside the obvious, for me it's also about companionship, caring, listening to client's troubles and worries, having fun and being a friend. Indoor Sex Worker & Outdoor Sex Worker sounds a little cold and mechanical, but I guess it's whatever floats your boat!
Actually you have an EXCELLENT point and I totally agree with you but I wanted to offer the media a term that replaced prostitute whilst doing interviews during the Bradford murders and it seemed less derogatory. But wholeheartedly agree we offer so many roles Annalise! x
Perhaps we could use "erection demolition" lol xxx

would it give you a different perception of the punter and his attitudes if he called you a prostitute instead of an escort ? ie could it be argued that someone would "use" a prostitute but "meet" an escort ? I know the service is similar but would you feel more comfortable with being seen as an escort and not a prostitute ?

it all comes with the so called "7 years from home". You can't just simply disrespect someone and wait for respect in exchange. We already know what/who we are but a disrespectful way to treat us won't get punters a good treat from us. You cannot wait for respect when you don't give respect (one of the rules of life, not of escorting).

Dont like to use the word prostitute myself, working girl or escort, by choice.

I didn't used to have a problem with the word prozzie, however, I have found that this word is being used in a negative and nasty way towards escorts in recent years. It has now become a word that I find myself getting offended by, purely because of the way its being used. I especially hate it when its spelt pro$$ie.
