I loath this word Hobby!  Used to describe what we do here. The word is a tired term, old, and antiquated.  It's mocked and scorned by many, yet it's still used on this board.  Let's modernize, change, and begin to use terms that reflect a positive message.

Whatever PC word you come up with won't make my 8 seconds of jizz any more or less enjoyable.

I have always hated the term "hobbyist", but compared to your idea I love it.

Hobbyist is a better word than Whore Monger, but after your suggestions, I think we should take GaGa's favorite term into consideration as well, huh?

Hobby doesn't bother me but I've never liked Provider.  I mean both terms are better than Johns and Hookers.  Provider seems so generic or from the medical field.  Although I do consider some woman as my primary health care specialist!

We don't got no badges...we don't need no badges...we're not going to cho you no steengkeeng badges!!!!

I also take it you didn't read my link.

but it doesn't roll off the tongue quite as well as "whore monger" does it?

I intend on continuing to hobby, and my hobbying shouldn't concern you much as the Hobby is a personal thing which we all enjoy, no matter what each of us may call it.

Maybe League of Degenerate Bastards is still available. We could call ourselves Freethinking Republicans, that would be fun. Or, if that's too extreme, simply Weird Pussy Lickers! That leaves the question open: Is it the pussies we lick weird? Or are the clients who lick them weird? The ambiguity seems intriguing.

From Romeo and Juliet...

from now on I will refer to myself as a "blow job-ee".

Please refrain from trying to steal Big Peter Johnson's name.  Be original.  Also, you are overthinking all this terminology.  Please get a life.

obby:  [hob-ee] noun, plural hobbies.
1. An activity or interest pursued for pleasure or relaxation and not as a main occupation:

do not disturb light turned on.

First:  It is "wherefore" not "why for", though the meaning of wherefore is why, so at least you got the spirit right.

pay for players?

I mean ... that's what a hobbyist is, right?

1) i've always called it "this endeavor."

I refer to myself as such often, even in polite company

This is exactly what we are all about: "a person who seeks to promote the welfare of others, especially by the generous donation of money to good causes." Is there a better cause? I think not! I love helping the ladies!

but there's already some other guy with the handle "PeterJohnson" on these boards and he's new too.

Number of reviews are not a great indicator of how long you have been in the game BPJ...

I heard the term "hobby" I thought of golf. It just sounded so silly. Collecting stamps is a hobby. This is more of a lifestyle, but "in the lifestyle" has already been claimed by swingers.  I don't know about "explorers" either. I thought "secret decoder ring" when I heard that one. I've heard a few people call guys, "tricks" or "Johns" and that sounds so streetwalkerish that I wonder about the user of the term. I'm ok with "monger", but I wonder how many people realize that it is just a shortened version,and less offensive version (to most) of "whore monger". I doubt many would be ok with the original version. It sounds too much like a soon-to-be ex wife term.

Meetings would be called social engagements.

to think you could fuck her IRL.

So a whoremonger would be correct for a pimp, not a John.  Still, I prefer it to hobbyist, which is totally lame.  Mr. Storm may be correct that this business qualifies as a hobby for guys, but the term is stupid and I try not to use it.

* especially one that is undesirable or discreditable *

I'm all for a live audience xD

The primary definition is "a broker or dealer."

The English language is complex, a fish monger sells fish, a whore monger buys/rents whores.

What I was discussing with Brittney was simply that the term "monger," when used by itself, meant seller, not buyer, thus rendering "whoremonger" an oxymoron.  But  I suppose when a word like whoremonger is used often enough, the definition can change.
For example, you refer to yourself proudly as an asshole, which is not something one would normally be proud of.  Yet you have repeated it often enough that (in your mind at least) the term has become a badge of honor. In fact, I have been known to answer to "asshole" myself.  LULZ!

I don't quite get the last one but maybe we should use it.  

I think others here have characterized it quite differently.

It could be worse. In the UK they are called "punters. "

fuckers!

and may be we would not call ladies  
Providers

With only 6 review, you are pretty bold to try and re-define the hobby.  

I hate the term hobby, but I have no interest in banning anything. I'm a guy, who likes to have sex with beautiful women, and is willing to do anything to make that happen. I believe the technical term for that is "heterosexual male"

Paramour? I think that's the only time I've seen that word used in years. I'm not really sure what it means ...

i said eofm, mf!!

I assure you, nobody would pay to see me on chatterbate!  

ea, I think it's more fitting. Cuts right to the chase
