I love it when guys come on here with stats... 90% this and 20% that... Where do ye get your stats... in a business that is covert and secretive. I don't even know the true stats, and I'm here a long time and a very active punter. I smile at some of your facts and figures..
All I can say or offer, is what I personally have witnessed and seen. Ireland is really relatively young in the escort/prostitution game... but it HAS evolved over time. Anybody remember Florin Ghenosu?..He was a busy boy in 2008 to 2011. Pimps like him don't seem to really thrive any more. Girls today seem to have more have choices. How many are truly "Indie" or not is now irrelevant... so long as they are not coerced, and its my belief that very few fall into the coerced category. Very few indeed.
Remember the good ol' days booking a holiday to Benelmadena or Torremolinos through a travel agent and finding the price/flight/accommodation being set with little or no flexibility... now we book ourselves with the likes of Ryan Air and using Air BnB or Trivago, More options, more choice. Escorting for the girls is more like this today. There is no big bad man wielding a stick. They have choices. Most know the choices and are happy.
Just because a lot of girls decide not to post here is not an indication of whether they are Indie or not... They just couldn't be arsed!!! Doesnt make them pimped...
Anyway.. €1000 or 5 years in jail... What??? Link me here please....
