    I have noticed that many individuals on this site (hobbiests and providers alike) have an aversion to the word “work.” As a sex workers' rights activist, this has always bothered me. It goes without saying that there is a lot of stigma surrounding our work. I believe the key to achieving respect is having people recognize that what we do is legitimate work. It also bothers me that people think that by calling this “work” it means I dislike what I do. The truth is I love my work. I am a teacher and a massage provider and I love both. That being said, I wouldn’t teach my students for free, nor would I do massage for free because I believe I provide a valuable service and that I am deserving of the money I receive. There are many fortunate people in this world who truly enjoy going to work each day, and I’m lucky to be one of them. Hope to see you all at Pride tomorrow. I’ll be carrying the “Sex Work is Work!” banner. (I also wanted to add that my comments are in regard to what happens on CERB, not in regard to what happens during private encounters).

    I hate when we ladies put our time and energy into an appointment and people can't bother to show up or cancel...I verify this most recent gent with a lady here on cerb...I called him also to verify...then he doesn't show up...he's actually on cerb as i type...gentlemen please don't waist our time and please at least don't bother to book if you don't plan on coming...this is happening way to much in Halifax lately...your ruining for the good guys who actually keep appointments. I must add that when this happens and the guy is verified by another sp i feel very vulnerable because he now knows where i am...not good but on a good note...I look damn hot right now...lol

    I have said it before, but I will say it again. If a lady wants to PM me an invitation, she is more than welcome. Ultimately it is my decision whether I reply to the invite and/or accept the offer. I do not see where one would be inundated with such invites. If such a case arose where you were being spammed excessively, one could always notify the Mod. It has worked well for me in the past in setting up a rendezvous.

    I don't think there's right and wrong in regards to such, just different. If you're not comfortable, you're not comfortable.. I'd just go with what you're comfortable with. I personally like older men, I've always been attracted to older men.. that's my preference... I may get it from my Mum though, she was almost 30 years younger than my Dad. xo

    The only reason why drug addicts turn to prostitution is, except for stealing, it's the easiest and fastest way to get money for drugs. Period. They have no regard for keeping the profession classy because they don't have any regard for anything except getting that next fix. So for those who question why they don't just play it safe and go legit like the rest of us is trying to figure out why someone would choose hamburger when they can have steak. To me, street level prostitution is just a means to an often very dangerous and tragic end. There's an old saying, it's easier to censor someone than pity them, especially when you've never walked a mile in their shoes. It's a very real social problem that most people would prefer not to think about or pretend doesn't exist. Unfortunately it's when tragedy like this occurs that we are reminded that there are some very lost souls out there who desperately need help. Whether they ask for it or accept it is another discussion.

    Thanks Meg. xo True... Now I'm not saying this applies to her, but I think in many cases we try to treat the addiction and not the underlying cause. Unfortunately, you can tell someone over and over again how much you love them and it won't make their lives any better or their memories and problems go away. If you take away someone's drugs and they lead an unhappy life.. where does that leave them? (Some) People become crack/drug addicts to "get away", relax, forget... You need to give them counseling, other means to relax, ways to feel proud of themselves.. incentive to face their problems and move on. Life is not supposed to be all roses and sunshine, but some of these people addicted to drugs are obviously having a rough time coping with that. If you take a look at women's shelters.. a lot of them have good models for helping women start new lives. We need to expand on that...
