Escort Ireland on 6:01 news

[Banjaxed]

You are also taking a stab at the potential daily income. LOL @ the arrogance

Again from what others themselves have said (likely exaggerated e.g.: €1,000 a day if they wanted), both escorts and clients. LOL @ the poor effort, really Heather.

It's really a pointless conversation but no one really knows other than the escorts, and they're not going to give their cards away as they rightly know that most punters would fill with begrudery faster than the basin of a sink with two taps left running.

Touring for the ladies, with all it's associated costs, (flights, travel, hotel/apartment rental, food, etc) are undoubtedly a financial investment, which certainly needs a good bit of money up front to even get it going in the first place. I'm pretty sure there's even been some escorts who have ended-up only just about breaking even on their tours when it comes down to income vs. expenditure. This could certainly happen if they fall ill or have to cut their tour short for some other reason, or they just have a bad week with loads of timewasters and not that many clients.

How much does it REALLY cost??? I don't know and I'm NOT ASKING. Ladies have their secrets, and that's just fine with me. Besides, they're in this game to make as much money as possible as QUICKLY as possible, so no one can blame them for keeping speculation as to how much they spend and earn to a minimum, and guard the truth as a 'trade secret'.

That's fair enough Cable, and I'd anticipated as much myself. I don't wish to come across as faulting anyone for it, if they can make it work for themselves, then well done.

I've no interest in engaging in one of these escort/client power struggle dynamics that seemly have to go on from time to time. Where someone from either group feels, either financially, sexually or in forum discussion, that they have to get "one" over on the other.

I just accept what I am told, when I'm told it (and do what I'm told, when I'm told it). All I know presently is if there wasn't a substantial financial benefit, no one would be doing it. Whether you make a great profit or are still struggling to get by it doesn't really matter, I'm still subject to "my" particular reality in either case, and finding out whether an escort makes a fortune or a pittance makes no difference to that.

So, apologies Heather, if you were ACTUALLY bothered in any way, but I'm rather just wandering aimlessly in this thread.

Since I'm the one working as an escort and you're not (presumably) it's not really a poor effort is it.
I am not going to go into finances at length but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out the weekly expenses to tour when you consider that accommodation alone runs at 100 per night and a return trip on the ferry costs me at least 300 euros.

The petrol, parking costs, food and drink, advertising costs, childcare costs is all free of course. It falls from trees!

Here's the link for the six-one rte news yesterday. The Ruhama clip starts at 15min 30 secs.

http://www.rte.ie/player/#!v=10044383

It has nothing to due with prices!! It coincides with the relase of Ruhama's annual report for 2011. It reiterates Ruhama's push to criminalize clients and censor the internet and block mobiles used by escorts.

There is a bizarre statement by the Sarah Benson CEO of Ruhama stating that there is huge competition for organised prostitutuion in Ireland because men are willing to pay more in Ireland in comparison to countries where sex work is legalized??? The fact that any competiton for organized crime starts with criminalization of an acitivity, seems to slip both Ruhama and RTE! But why let a good story get in the way of truth, huh?

It's not a price thread folks - just see the clip, it's more for the same anti-escorting propaganda. I'll bet the Ruhama crew that follow our forum are laughing their assess off seeing us fighting over what has been another media coup for them (in that their version of how things are is the only side that the media ever potrays).


We need to get above our differences folks and put our thoughts into invividual submissions to the Dept of Justice. Deadline is 31st of August. Here's a link on how to do it:

I think you are all missing the news angle, it was the publication of Rhuama's annual report. That makes interesting reading, despite headline figures of an increase is cases etc, it turns out that they dealt with 22 new cases last year. They have surplus funding of in excess of 150 000 which is quite an achievement for any 'voluntary' organisation. I suggest we all read the report it is strong on sentiment but lacking on actual stats or figures to back it up.

Not sure when their Annual Report is normally issued but the timing of this year's publication within 10 or so days of the fast approaching consultation deadline on prostitution is well timed from their perspective!

Sorry Morpheus, I wouldn't have left my quote above if I has seen this own of yours. Replied as I came across things. Thanks again.

You betcha D.E.!!! Which is why we all need to get our two pence in to the Dept of Justice before the deadline!

Could someone explain to me the justification for blocking an escorts phone number or stoping her advertising on the internet?
As far I am aware, the much lauded Swedish model doesn't even go that far, as the escort isn't committing a crime so why should their contact details be blocked?
Not sure if this has been explained before so sorry if I missed it?

It's the same when they say we want to decriminalise sex work. How can you legalise something that is legal.
It's all a smoke screen for the real agenda of ending sex work.
