brute force and ignorance

[skywalker85]

I was talking to a girl in the chat room yesterday and she told me that she had been robbed on Sunday - a client took all her money.

Are you sure ya could call him a Client,, we'r clients who respect The Escorts, we dont rob escorts,, so in other words he was a Robber/thief.

Sickening to hear of this happening . It's a hard job being an escort.

Another terrible occurance. I'm glad to hear the lady involved in the horrible situation is doing ok, and hasn't let the situation get her down or cause her to live in fear. These ladies deserve respect and admiration for the work they do, and it frustrates me to no end to hear of stories lie this, which are far too common.

I myself had met an escort a that was a regular in Dublin a few years ago who'd been robbed, only a matter of days before I first met her. She and a few others she worked with were robbed by cowards at gunpoint. This prompted her to move to a different part of town. She told me about the robbery, and it must've been so terrifying for the ladies there. I'd love to meet out those cowards myself, and see how they like it...

recently i met an escort who had been terrorised by four thugs who stole everything she had on the ruse that one was a customer who forgot his keys, they hit her and frightened her out of her wits, thank god nothing worse, she was on her own, touring escorts are enormously exposed, living out of suitcases, sometimes the apartments are a mess, some escorts have to buy their own bed linen because they have high standards for them selves and their customers, the guys who call and dont show up, the abusive callers, the great unwashed are all bad enough, the violent nutjobs are anathema, a boil on society, this woman is tiny, speaks better english than most and was an easy target, within missing a beat she was back at work within days in new town meeting more ananymous strangers all of whom could be a threat to her life, obviously she works for a living, hopefully enjoys some of it, you sit in an apartment all day waiting for a call, hoping it will be ok, have to look your best, perform to the best of your ability, otherwise you might get a bad review from an otherwise good guy or a freak, anyone who has worked in a service industry knows the pubc are dangerous freaks, in the field of providing sexual services with all the paranoia involved, how bad could that be?
Soe years ago i was in a relatioship with an escort. leaving aside the obvious jealousy, fear, withdrawal, there was the dread of real harm coming to someone you adored, nightly phone calls, separation, thankfully she gave up the job which she always wanted to do, which of us men could look good 24 hours a day, be ready for action at 10 mins notice, make the right noises, send you home happy and then be ready for the next gift from god, these are extraordinary courageous people, when you complain about their prices, ask yourself what you would charge not for just your time butyour actual being, the wonderful woman i met is young, a little inexperienced, who could have just given up after this trauma in a foreign country, these incomparable women fill a void in our lives, celebrate them, walk in their shoes and you will see

I am sorry to hear this, unfortunately it is a common occurrence. If possible, please encourage your friend to approach the Guards. This type of thing can and will only be stopped if we stand up and show these people attacks on us will not be tolerated, in the same way you cannot expect to rob any woman living quietly in the privacy of what is effectively her home for the duration. If she doesnt feel able to do that, and she advertises here, if she post anonymously in our forum we can at least try and help.

Nice post

Great post Sir.

What I revere is the inner fortitude of the ladies, carefully concealed by that warm smile and effortless cordiality. How do they do it??

I have also been witness to the effect of others. The lady I saw regularly back home, “roughed up” by a “freak”, visibly shaking when I arrived for an appointment. But, an hour and a coffee later she was back to form – quite incredible!

I am coming out of posting 'retirement ' as I think it important to say a few words on this subject in support of the OP and the girls in general without being sycophantic in any way.

To the general public,prostitution conjures up images of either street walking skangers or alternatively Vogue model types being paid zonks by rich playboy tycoons to play with them. Little do they appreciate that really lovely ladies, lovely people indeed, are easily and privately available at the touch of a button or at the end of a phone in this country.

We are a small island where 'everybody knows everybody' and therefore with few brave exceptions we are dependent on ladies from abroad either coming here to stay for a year or two or coming here to tour on a regular basis. We must make sure ( as best we can ) that these independent ladies feel safe and comfortable and feel that financially it is worth their while to come here. Yes, escort fees are expensive to the punter in the current environment but I would suggest escorts are really no more expensive here than in most of western europe and that is somewhat surprising given that we are 'off the beaten track'. I think the quality of the ladies we have had and continue to have here is at the top end internationally.

It is only when something is taken away from you that you appreciate what you had. My guess is that the quality of 'punting' has never been better in this country. Not alone can we reasonably easily book a range of gorgeous women for sex but it is delivered wrapped in the GF experience ! If our partners knew about this, they would have a canary !! ( might buck some of them up ! ).

It is for these reasons it makes me sick when I hear of these girls being assaulted and robbed by these cowards. Their difficulties become our problems as unless these ladies can operate safely and in reasoinable conditions, they will not come here and we will suffer. It has been an absolute privilege to have been entertained by so many great ladies -- I do not want this to change or to give others the excuse to change things for us. Unfortunately, there is very little we can do to protect these girls ourselves due to the fact that we must operate ourselves somewhat in the shadows but we can at least give our business to those quality ladies who are genuinely independent and who stay here or keep coming back. I also think the boards do support the girls and I am impressed by the amount of ladies who actively post and I put a lot of this down to the pub type banter by the guys - its not always my cup of tea but it clearly works for the girls, so well done.

Reflecting on all the support and posts on this thread, I have one fear. A girl who is attacked/robbed goes to the Gardai, anti escort groups such as Rhuama will use these attacks to further demonise the services provided. As punters, we find it difficult to speak out on behalf of the girls and that is the problem. The more I think about it, the more I want to do something positive...problem is I can't actually work out what is the best thing to do....if anyone comes up with a way, we the punters, can help without compromising existing relationships etc...then please post and I for one will join in.

Hey ksteve mate, thanks for coming out of posting 'retiement' to leave this brilliant post! My blood has been boiling with rage all day since I read Zicooo's equally brilliant post this morning but I could not have written as brilliantly on the subject as both you and he have done. It is unfortunate that we, as you put it very well, are operating in the shadows ourselves, otherwise we could support the escorts more openly. The guys who terrorise these lovely ladies are nothing but cowardly thugs and unfortunately they are all to prevalent in our society.
To all you beautiful girls who brighten up our lives so much - we love you and would want to protect you, and most of all WE RESPECT YOU!

I'm with you there Doodlebug - I've been thinking about this all day but haven't come up with a solution. I will help in whatever way I can though!

[zicooo]

the young lady in question is ok, unbelieveably has returned to work straight away, the perpatrators were an organised criminal gang so will not be caught, she, however, is an extraordinary brave person who will not give up, it is a shame tah a knock on the door which should lead to kisses, hugs, touching, exhilaration, fantasy (well thats the idea isnt it) should become trauma, dread, nightmare. I go to meet one lady at atime, not multiple potential lunatics, the more clients keep in mind the issues that are out there possibly the greater the appreciation might be of your new friends, the saras,jessicas,ciaras, are not sexual punchbags, they are real people, they hurt too....
