I very good friend of mine is forced in the provder business for reasons she cannot control. It makes me sad to know that there is no place in vegas that helps these young people when they are in need.My point is please remember when you hobby that this young lady is someones loved one . Please let them know that you care about them. I dont mind the people that do this because they want to . I just hate to see someone do it because they have ne place else to go.And for the provders please remember someone loves you.

Is she being held against her will and forced to be a provider? If she is then my heart goes out to her...

But, if she is a "free person" and able to come and go as she pleases, then she is not "forced", she is simple taking the path of leadt resistance... Vegas is a hard town, and has an age-old history of being such a place... She should take the money off of her next trick and catch a greyhound to middle-america, where she can work a simple job, perhaps go to night school, live humbly and drop out of the fast pace of Vegas.  
 We've all had to make hard choices in life, leave family and friends, relocate to persue careers, ect, ect... I'm curious what circumstances this girl has that "bind her to her task-master"??  

 Mostly, I've run across girls that hate this job and would like to leave it, but their lust for MONEY and reckless shopping, and supporting some dead-beat man that she thinks "loves her" are the things that "force" her to keep going.... all of which are paper shackles that she could easly tear free of... Perhaps as her "friend" you need to give her a pep-talk and help her plot an escape route?

dont miss my point.These young ladies are someones beautiful daughter. Treat them with respect. None of us are any better than them.I have a hard time that anyone would hurt another person when they are down. Please hobby with respect.

I agree with the tone of Dirty Jesus's remarks. I don't believe anyone should feel "forced" into this profession. I can understand how sometimes circumstances may cause someone to think that she may have no other choice, and I may be naive, but there ARE other options(including that bus ticket out of town). The provider in question is choosing this profession to allieviate whatever situation that causes her to think she has no other choice.

I can't imagine that if a provider feels she is being "forced" into this profession she will have the desire to provide "good service". That in and of itself may exacerbate the downward spiral your friend may currently find herself in.

My sense is that most people on this board do "hobby with respect", and maybe the most respectable thing you can do for your friend is to help her find another way out of her bind.

It is my opinion that the best providers are the ones who choose to be in this profession and make a concerted effort to be the best they can be while they are working in this profession. My heart goes out to any provider who feels she is "forced" into this profession, and if she feels that way she should find the fastest way out of her current situation.

That's just my opinion, and I obviously haven't "walked the walk"... I don't know... ladies, am I out of line here?

While these types of organizations can't help those addicted to money or have issues out of their control, they are there to help those who want to get out.

Las Vegas Rescue & Restore Coalition is a sorta umbrella organization, I believe headed by the WestCare agency.  Something you should look into if your friend wants to get out.

There's another based outta LA called Coalition to Abolish Slavery & Trafficking (CAST).

Both statements are mutually meaningless!

I just want a clear definition-of-terms when we discuss these opinions of acceptable hobby-conduct...

When you say "hurt" do you mean beaten or slapped around by aggressive clients? We've had some cases of that here in Mn and I agree, that should not be expected... Unless of course she is offering for sale dom/sub S&M type experences. There's every kind of experence available out there, and I think it is inappropriate for a man to expect or attempt anything that the woman hasn't agreed to for a price.

As far as "respect" goes, I 'm not sure that's part of the hobby, I think it's a misplaced emotion. That doesn't mean I support "disrespect", it simply means that I'm conducting a business transaction for sexual pleasure, I'm not looking to hire out to falsely fill the relational voids in my life, so I'm careful not to let business arrangements become confused with matters of the heart.
 
 We all have to do things we'd rather not to to earn a living, things that are unpleasant, boring, embarrassing, or even dangerous. What keeps us all doing what we do is the compensation we receive, So with that in mind, it's hard for me to get too white-knightish over a girl bringing in between $200 & $500 per hour!  Especially when I think of how much more "discomfort" most people in the world have to endure just to reap a tiny fraction of that wage!

You can certainly treat people in customer service industries with "respect" while you're engaging in business transactions, no?

This is simply a rather unique customer service industry, I've found- and "respect" (treating people well in the service industries, even when there's a business transaction involved) usually returns respect. That doesn't mean getting carried away and thinking GFE = girlfriend or white knighting, but if "respect" means "having consideration for people as people", I'm down with it.
