Did anyone read the article in the Strib that says anyone can "just order up an underage girl on Backpage"? Where the hell do they come up with this horseshit?Has anyone here ever thought the lady they were going to see was underage?

That seems a little naive to me.   I've read some articles that have said underage gals will advertise by saying, "I'm new to town" to let potential clients know they are underage.  I'm not saying every other person who advertises on BP is underage, but I bet it would be very easy to meet with an underage gal if that was your thing.  There are some real sick bastards out there.

It's just the powers that be who take a rare situation and try to over-play it totally! I can honestly say that ALL of the providers I've seen are well into their adult years and operate totally independent. It's just part of the effort from the ugly feminist, media, etc. to try and shut down Backpage and others!

To read a newspaper is to be misinformed.
To not read a newspaper is to be uninformed.

I'm sure there's a very, very small number or slight amount. I've just never came across it and if I did, I would turn away among other things!

Maybe there are more underage street ladies.  Unfortunately, if there is demand for something, you know it will be supplied.  

And it certainly wouldn't be above LE to overstate the problem, either.

Love those 2 lines!!  And how true they are.

...is a well-known cranky dramatizer - a fact that was pointed out to me by a female co-worker who went as far as to say that she needed "a man in her life".  Anybody who has to do PR work in the 'Cities has to watch out for her write-ups.  It's not just the hobby that gets vandalized when she's having a bad day.

While I am STRICTLY a massage kind of guy (not FS), I do peruse the Escorts site now and then just for kicks.  I can't say that I have seen many women who even appear to be underage.  Not to say it doesn't happen, but I really don't think it is the huge problem LE and the nanny-staters want the public to believe.  They can just print the garbage they want knowing the public, like the lemmings they are, will just believe it.  Of course, if it's a "problem," then LE gets more money to fight the phony battle.  They want to censor and control. Every once in a while there is a pic in the "Body Rubs" section that causes me to look twice and question the age. But if there is even the slightest question in my mind, I pass.  Besides, I prefer mature women anyway.

Having written that, I want to be clear that I am 100% against under age activities of any kind and believe perps of those crimes should be punished severely.  I feel the same about women who are FORCED into prositution.  NO ONE should be forced to participate in ANY activities they do not want to partake in.  Period.   But what occurs between CONSENTING adults behind closed doors, in my opinion, is their business.

Between LE and most of the regular media you would think BP's escorts section is nothing but ads for underage girls and victims of human trafficking.  But it does happen and I've seen a few ads where the girl in it definitely looked like she could well be under 18.  There was one ad floating around a while ago that came up either here or on some other board that was easily traced back to some pics originally stolen off the phone of a 14 year old girl.

The writers also know that no one is going to publicly refute their version.  I don't see a signed letter to the editor saying, "I've been seeing prostitutes for five years and I have never run across an underaged provider" any time soon.

And my response in every case has been different depending on the circumstances...
However, there were only three that actually would ADMIT they were under 18, so I'm still unsure what we are expected to do in these circumstances; ID the girl before shoving my cock up her hole??

I'm no going to start seeing old MILF-hags just to be safe at this! I am now and always have been exclusively attracted to 18-19yo body and personality, so in a high-consumption hobby career like mine has been, I'm bound to cross that lower-limit periodically just due to the underbelly-nature of this business...

I don't necessarily like that he seeks BBFS from young ladies but I definitely appreciate his honesty.

We have always gotten along quite well and I have a great deal of respect for you as a person and for your unwavering g honesty as well...
(We had some rather meaningful conversations via PM back in my "BenDover" days.

And I surely don't expect you to like or condone my incessant barebacking of the young and naive, but I must say in my own pompous defense that I don't merely "seek it" but I'm actually quite successful at getting it  

And other that a few rounds of antibiotics from time to time,  little harm has come of it... I got spade long ago, so I'm not adding to the teen-pregnancy statistic nor increasing the lines outside the abortion clinics and I do get tested for the life threatening things periodically and thus far am still clean, so as of yet, I'm not putting anyone's health at risk but my own...

yep, and I believe I figured your new handle out looooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg  before anyone else did.    

I appreciate your fair assessment of me.   Thank you!!    It just goes to show that folks can see things and believe in things that are complete opposites and still get along quite well.  Doesn't always have to end in a trainwreck.   Although we've both started a few....... LOL

Have a great day!

If a hobbyist is busted seeing an escort who is under 18, it will very likely, maybe even almost certainly, be a felony charge.

I met my first"lady" many many years ago.Since getting back into the "hobby" several years ago,I have never,in all my life,met anyone who I thought may be underage!These stories really piss me off!
