Does anybody out there have any information on Turn Off The Blue Light?!

It started out here, it would have been fair to call it an E-I project for its first few weeks, but as it was talked about it was decided it needed to be independent to E-I, that it should be an escort led association not an E-I project, and that's what happened, that's where it went.

I had no idea about that Pat when I linked to the first post I could find about TOBL. I never joined it. Is it escorts only who are involved now and would you happen to know how active it is?

I believe membership was open to everybody so it was not *only* escorts that could be members, but it was set up in a way where escorts were making the key decisions. I'll try to get some info.

There is something very sad about that...normal people, behaving responsibly, and because it is the sex industry it gets turned into something grubby, that even I believe in...well, I will not be allowing myself to be persuaded into that degree of prejudice and gullibility again in a hurry...

Bajaxed, this world is currently being ruled by men, and it has been this way for a long time now. Of course majority of men took the advantage and behave like pricks without even realising it as due to their position in the society, they have no comparison so its became a norm.
We can be only lucky that members of the supressed sex are sometimes willing to express their opinion where they can and remind us about the problem, so the good men can take a note and see wheather there is something they could improve about their behaviour.

That is true but it's largely beyond the control of ordinary men or women, and is also a consequence of centuries of discrimination and downright hatred which I've never understood nor would willing want to take part in. I view women as at least equals, though many times I've noted their superiority in certain areas (planning, quick thinking, ability to think outside the box, and in some cases sheer ruthlessness).

I believe that every ordinary man and woman has the choice to take control of their life and of the things they agree or disagree with. You can only be made feeling like a victim if you agree to it. So is it with the dominator. Just the other side of same coin.
