Since retirement from the hobby, for the old men was mentioned, what about the ladies? I saw where there was some of the T-ladies doing their thing in the 1980s. So they might be having to retire, or they're switching to other types of work. However, if a lady has the fountain of youth, then more power to her. I'd love to go back to being 18 years of age, and to know what I know now!
Do our good T-ladies just keep saving their money till they got enough to retire on? Or do they get a pension or what? I would hate to see any of them become destitute! With most of the special ladies, I had to use a translator, so we didn't talk much.
There was one, down in Rio de Janeiro that wanted to argue with me over her phone translator. She was threatening to call the Law on me, because after a couple of minutes of being at her place, I offerd to pay her 1/4 of it. She wanted the full payment, for doing nothing. Since she called me old-man, I offerd her a double or nothing deal. To start at the bottom of her apartment building and race up the stairs to the top. If she won, she'd get paid double. She declined the offer. About the others down there in Brazil, I got along good with most of the ladies!
You all take care!
It's an interesting topic, but might be a bit shocking or sad to those who engage trans escorts or date trans women.
Many do indeed become destitute, at least somewhat so. There's zero pension or social security benefits in any cash occupation and most have to pay for so many things out of pocket to begin with so they're not able to save for the future or retirement very easily. Some save a bit and return to Europe, Central or South America where the money exchange is greater and they have family or friends they can live with. Some get into the beauty industry; doing hair, make up and or nails. Some do well with female impersonator shows. Some get an education to become a nurse or other medical/health related occupations, I've seen a few become realtors and do very well. Some only do it long enough to pay for an SRS or GAS and go on to lead much more "normal' lives.
Overall, I would say the statistics are low that many earn beyond a lower class income level after escorting. They often have other problems, social injustices, racism, bigotry, hatred, getting harassed, beaten and even killed. I believe black men killing black trans women is one of the highest among those kids of stats. But it also happens in the Spanish and Latino communities as well. They experience a much higher amount of jealousy, envy, insecurity and then rage with their boyfriends sometimes even husbands. I think another high statistic is trans women killed by a BF, a husband, or a male family member.
While things have gotten better there is such a long way to go for most trans people. For those who enter the sex industry, it's NOT at all an easy life. The 5-10-15-20 year period they escort is usually the peak of their income. Sure, there's exceptions but not many. You won't find many MTF trans women much past their 60s-70s. Again, it's not an easy life regardless if they're able to make big bank while they're escorting...
Okay we need to have a reality check. These ladies started as men, so what happens when they lose their hair and go bald?
A number of them already wear wigs. If they are not already, then fair chance they will get one. If going bald is their only worry, I don't think there's much to be worried about. I think they would be more concerned if their looks were to fade, and that can happen to anyone, not just T ladies.
They could get the gut, just lose that womanly figure too. Buddy half the time I’m on here just to stir the pot.
This post and most of these comments are wildly offensive to be coming from guys who supposedly are attracted to us. do better
Good Morning to you. About being offensive, would you rather have us lie to you? I prefer to say what I really think or see. If what I say offends, than sorry, but I will not lie to keep from offending someone. I want folks to be honest, whether it offends me or not! For some folks the truth does offend. I would rather here someone say this or that is wrong and here's why, then to just here it's "offensive". And I think most of us try to do "better".
My intent is not to offend, but to try to help! And if a lady looks like she's wearing a wig, I will not be attracted to her. I do try to help out, if I can. I'm not a multi millionaire like that Starr T-Lady. If you remember nothing else, remember that what I post is to try and help and to ask honest questions, because I do care! Have you ever offended anyone? It will not help you or anyone to be so ultra sensitive. Sorry if this offended anyone. Take care and have a good day!
This is for the FEW guys who engage with escorts; trans or genetic women, even other men, who have zero clue how much of an a-hole they can be. This is not directed at any one person, but if this is offensive to you, then it probably applies. The response from someone who stated how can guys who pursue trans escorts be so disrespectful to the type of person they pursue for their "personal selfish pleasure" was right on the money. Don't be an a-hole in a public forum! Being inconsiderate with such a lack of knowledge, understanding, compassion or empathy is uncalled for. It's not being honest, it's being an a-hole... period!
Most of us were taught a simple rule; if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all. If you don't know then error on the side of caution. Learn to express subjects with some class and dignity for all involved. People who engage escorts are not superior or at a higher level. We're all at the same level and have each been dealt different cards. A good topic was brought up about what trans girls who escort do when they retire. The unfortunate facts are statistically they live a more challenging than non-trans people. The few that still make bank into their 50s 60s + are few and far between.
This broaches another subject; how many who engage with trans escorts would date them publicly? I get it, married men probably wouldn't the same as if they engage genetic escorts. But the next thought is, how many men would take a trans woman as a life partner? It wasn't too long ago when men who dated genetic porn stars came out of the closet to date them publicly, now it's no big deal. So will that trend also happen with dating trans women publicly? After all; if guys are genuinely "trying to help" then these topics would be considered, right?
This is a forum to share info with escorts, this board specifically trans escorts. Poor service, fakes, cash and dash, scams are common place to share as well as good services and providers. Overly negative, derogatory comments are unnecessary. Again, if anyone thinks; "I'm just keeping it real" or "I'm here to stir the pot" or "I'm being honest" or "I'm trying to be helpful" you may have a blind spot and not understand that you're being an a-hole. Let's keep an appropriate level of decorum and treat everyone with the same amount of dignity and respect they deserve. Most of all be careful and have fun out there...
How many "multi million dollar" trans escorts, pornstars or former porn stars are there in reality, really? Let's look at the top several who've made the biggest bank and made it really big. Let's exclude those who didn't make their bank in the sex industry like; Caitlin Jenner, popstar Kim Petras or trans super model Candis Cayne and so on.
Former pornstar Kimber James has among the highest net worth at 1.5 - 2 million. Yasmin Lee seems to be at a similar economic level but this is from various online sources, not like their taxes are exposed. From there how many other girls have amassed near million dollar empires even with very successful OF pay sites? Early trans pornstar Vanity is now living modestly/meagerly with HIV. Foxy Angel, early trans site creator and pornstar is still escorting. It's very possible really enjoys it being the amazing dom top she is, so what's her retirement plan?
While statistics vary, if approximately 10% of the 7.9 billion people are in the LGBT community, about 2% are trans, about half of them are MTF. 1% = 79 million MTF trans people in the world, half under 18 half over 50. Of the 40 million in the world, how many are making big bank in the sex community or elsewhere and living a lush retirement? Is there even a million vs how many are disowned by their families, ridiculed against more then the black community and live in a part of the disenfranchised that isn't even recognized yet?
If this isn't understood then perhaps stop watching porn, get out of the fantasy world, educate yourself and gain a better perspective. While it's a good subject to bring up, if it's completely miss understood as it seems to be, then it's like white privilege among white people who think there's no such thing. Yes, I went there and I'm a white guy. Remember, be careful out there and have fun (careful with yourself and others)...
