I persume this is in regads to the last few threads on the Romanian situation. None of the girls suggested to me anyway in the recent news have worked in this scenario. More, there were introduced to a lucrative opportunity to work in the sex industry for substantial financial gain. Unfortunately on occasion the introduction was made by callous scumbags. As far as I understand it, most girls are introduced to this game by an individual, be it a colleague in the game or a pimp. Very few decide to go it alone in fairness. Experience allows the more clued in girls to go fully independent eventually, but they all start from here. For some it suits them to stay ‘under the wing’ of their pimp for convenience and ‘security’. It would seem from recent events that this security turned out to be a false one… The chances are that most girls you meet here are pimped and the number of TRUE independents is small.. So that surely does limit your choices if one is to be pedantically a ‘true independent only’ punter…
Well said Jim. Excellent post, summarises my thoughts exactly.
Being trafficked and working for a pimp or agency ARE NOT THE SAME THING!!!!! Ruhamma and The TORL love intertwinning the words because of the emotive effect it has on the general public and clearly on us punters with consciences.
What is being Pimped?? Again a broad stroke tarnishing any working arrangment of an escort unless she works for herself and herself alone. (Incidentally how many of us are self employed? Good for you if your are. I'm not, and there is a certain security not being your own boss).
There are multiple permutations to this. A girl could work for an agency and take her share of the profits. A girl could have come willingly to Ireland with the help of a syndicate and send back a % of her earnings. A girl could be with a useless loser boyfirend who lives off her but provides some sort of protection etc.. These are all incredibly different situations. But they have all been labelled "Pimped" - avoid at all costs!!!
To me the only time it maters is when a lady is under the absolute control of another individual and is forced against her will to work as an escort and has to hand over all her money to the said individual. That to me is a "Pimping " situation that is unacceptable.
I don't believe that any of the ladies that shall not be mentioned (out of respect from me, and also in view of Samlads good dictate) - were in this situation.
Whatever way a lady chooses to run her business - with help or on her own - is entirely up to her. As long as it's her choice, thats enough to me. I completely agree with Rebeka on this one.
It is amazing how this has blown out of proportion and causing long standing revered members of this forum to self doubt. I don't think this is coincidence. Thre has been a spate of threads about this even though some of these events happened some time ago. Also there was recent re-questioning of the credibility of E-I as a site!
Ladies and gentlemen, it has happened - the TORL and Ruhamma are amongst us! It would be nice if they would stand up and show themselves.
