Annoying as it is, and first and foremost unfair, the same treatment would not be applied to someone whose skin is of a different colour, cause it is racism, hence shocking and appalling behaviour, but ostracism against me was "kinda ok".
Well not in my eyes, it wasn't.
I had to prove to everyone that although I am of a certain origin I am still a nice, competent and professional person.
Having said that I cant sit back here and watch everyone waiving the racism card.
It is not racism. Racism carries discrimination or antagonism.
Escort asking you where you're from is making a choice, maybe based on stereotypes, but it is still a choice.
You are being very intimate with someone in this line of work.
You simply cannot impose of an advertiser to cater for everyone.
That would no longer be consensual.
What if she is only seeing lads over a certain age?
Would you complain about ageism?
No you would not.
Again, it is a question of personal choice. You probably be disappointed but you would respect it and call someone else instead.
Instead of trying to look for a reason to be offended, let try to understand each other.
