Being an escort already IS legal. I pay my taxes as an escort - it's CRA industry code: Other personal services (including Online psychic, escorts, dating, party planning, personal shopping) - 81290. I am also registered for HST and 13% tax is included in my rates. I hatehatehate the assumption that escorts dont pay taxes. I am a self-employed woman running a legal business, and I pay my taxes just like any other business owner.

I respect your opinion Valerie, but I do disagree with two of your statements. I don't think there is any class system or hierarchy among sex workers, and saying you are an escort, NOT a prostitute, denotes a class system. I am an escort. I am a prostitute. I am a hooker. I actually feel so strongly on this issue I made a post in my blog about it last week - http://thetattooedcat.blogspot.ca/2014/01/whats-in-name.html I also don't agree that younger is better. The vast majority of my clients prefer women 25+ - or even 30+. A gentleman I saw recently was almost beside himself when I reminded him I was 29 when we first met. He only likes to see women over 30 - and he himself is only in his early 40s. I am proud to be an escort/hooker/whore/prostitute. I love ALL of my fellow hos.

Thank you for sharing your article, Valerie. I think if people want to speak to the media, we should be careful about comparing ourselves to other workers in negative ways. We don't need to be looking down on "hookers" and giving the media and the public more sensationalism. I don't agree that there is a "large and illegal demand for underage escorts", either. Discussing the difference in working/the experience is fine, I would just like to suggest that we try to keep it neutral -- so, "street-based worker" instead of "street-based hooker", and try not to compare ourselves by saying something like "well I'm not a prostitute because I do XYZ". It's fine to say, "I don't like the term hooker/prostitute/sex monkey". It's another thing to say "I'm not one of them", IMO.

http://www.ottawasun.com/2014/01/24/inside-the-business-of-happiness Here is the link to the Sun article which is being published. I am satisfied that the Sun did a good job within the constraints of of their readership. My photos and quotes were used with permission. I would like the opinions of other people. I am not sure if this is in the right section so feel free to move this to any other section which you feel might be more appropriate for this article.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with the Sun reporter, Valerie. It takes a lot of courage to trust the media, and to speak with them about our experiences. Too often people don't reach out to us on issues that are important. However, as workers I do believe we have a responsibility to represent this industry accurately and fairly. I was wondering how you came to the conclusion that there is a high and illegal demand for underage escorts? I also agree with Kat and Cleo regarding the use of the term "prostitute". I think it's really important not to compare ourselves to street-based workers in a negative way. I feel so lucky, so incredibly lucky, to be able to work indoors and I fight really (really) hard in my personal and academic life for the life, liberty, and security of the persons of all sex workers, be they indoor or not. I count myself among the lucky ones, you know?

It's kind of alarming to think there are guys out there that think that another sp would be agreeable to help them find someone under age. I've never been asked or even had anyone hint about it. One thing, hopefully helpful, is the age of consent has been changed a couple of years ago to 16. That is still not, however, the minimum age for seeing sps, clients must know that the person they see is 18 and older. fwiw, i would pass on whatever contact info you have for these people to the appropriate authorities, along with copies of their requests that you find these underagers. :) When dealing with the general uninformed public, i always use the term sex worker. Sex worker means everyone, dominatrix, dancer, r&t provider, sp, escort, courtesan, whatever. They understand the term and that way we aren't forced into using the abolitionist's 'prostitute' who are trying to 'own' that word to dismiss and discredit us all. They've smeared the word to only mean the stereotype (as in starts at 14, on the streets, drug addicted, mental health issues, and of course, forced and pimped and unwilling, along with experiences of high levels of assault and violence. And they've twisted the word into meaning that, which is why my preference is to not use the word for any sex workers, not outside of those who understand the meaning at least). I liked the article overall, and thought both the writer and the Sun did a good job. I didn't even see the obligatory 20 year old short skirted, platform stripper shoed sp standing on the dark street corner for the photo to accompany the article lol. The only thing I would mention is that it seemed like you thought that you, as an indoor worker, are unable to communicate with clients about your services, etc. This is completely legal to do. The only time communication is illegal, at least for the next 11 months, is when it is in public. which is why it is the number one charge against street workers and their clients, and never the charge against any mp worker or sp incall, or escort outcall.

Sex work is legal. It is certain provisions around it that are not, such as hiring security or communicating in public. I pay taxes on my income like any other small business. Revenue Canada has a job code for escorting. Why is there always the assumption that we do not report our incomes, just because this is a cash-based income? It would be incredibly difficult to do things like sign a lease or a mortgage, get a credit card, buy a car and car insurance, etc if we were not claiming income.

Yes my friends, I have done it "my way"! Some may have noticed that my posts and threads are becoming minimal in nature (could be a good thing!). So as an update, the cancer continues to spread and has started to effect some nerves and cognitive stuff on a random basis. Docs tell me this is what I can expect for a while, nothing major, but all things being equal, by spring, my nerve endings will be really screwed up, memory may or may not be effected, speech may or may not be effected. They looked at me funny when I asked about my tongue! Anyway, hanging in, trying to get rid of this blasted cold provided to me by some uncaring asshole. Will continue to stay in touch while I can, hoping to be good for the next Ottawa Social, that is a focus! Will continue to drive and visit as long as I am able. Thanx, hope you all have a great weekend, play safe, play often and give the ladies lots of licks, kisses and hugs (YMMV)!!!!! Tom TheLiquor

There is a demand for underage escorts because I get called and emailed to put people in touch with younger ladies. Some websites somewhere posted that the age of consent in Canada is fourteen and I have been emailed by potential clients asking me if I know of anyone who is fourteen. I was advertising in the US for clients how come to visit Canada and those clients in particular emailed me about finding them fourteen year old escorts. I have also answered phones for an agency and the demand for younger ladies is certainly there. My age is posted on my website and still people call me to put them in touch with someone younger, as young as possible. When I was younger, no one ever called me to put them in touch with an older escort. It did not happen even once. I have clients who have seen me who have asked me to send them the names of younger ladies but never have I been asked for the names of older ladies. Not even once. This business has to be a cash business. I used to accept Pay Pal and I was burned. I used to accept credit cards and I was burned. It never ceased to amaze me how many men turned up with a credit card in the wife's name claiming that the wife never checked the bills. I have no personal objection to being called a prostitute or whatever. The Sun did take come liberty with what I said but I let them do it. The Sun has a readership that it needs to please and keep happy. The Sun needs to sell newspapers which is what makes it a profit. In that context, I find that what was said was fair. The point was that escorting is a legal taxable small business and it has all the problems and the challenges of any other small business. I think the Sun article succeeded in making that point.

I think you are overthinking the purpose of seeing sps and mps. The purpose is to skip over the getting to know you and seeing if we have a connection/chemistry/agreement. When you book an appointment, that is your agreement, a sure thing. with mps, as well there isn't full contact so you get massage, relaxation, touch, all combine to make you more comfortable with your decision to do this in the first place. There is no 100% perfect choice, there are only going to be the best possible choice. If you are having trouble with the first step, then i would recommend that you do not go to a spa/parlour, but rather than you connect with someone independent. This is something that you can email/pm first a few times, and see how it goes. Having said that, there are spa attendants (red named mps) who do have profiles here that you can interact with, depending on your location. I don't think a quick handshake and hello is really going to resolve your issue that you mentioned, actually. So a massageapalooza probably not a great way to meet sps and mps lol.

Quite frankly we are getting on. The threads having to do with cialis and Viagra speak to that. I still love the intimate contact with a beautiful woman. I loved my time with Lorraine Lacey, for example. What is your experience or interest?

With age comes experience, we all know that. What I've come to realize is that with experience comes a nice atmosphere, kind words and fun sex. I find older gentlemen usually enjoy our time (the activity and the conversation) without " powering through it ". I'm obviously having a hard time finding my words lol

A few issues here. First, when you enter a foreign country, you are entering at the discretion of a foreign government. You have no RIGHT of entry. With that in mind, everything on or about your person is subject to scrutiny under the laws of the receiving country. EVERY country has laws regarding the movement of people and goods across international borders. Second, when you enter a foreign country, the standards of law, evidence and reasonable search and seizure are those of the receiving country. You can be as "righteously indignified" as you wish, but it comes down to four words: "Their country, their rules." Last, and probably most important? If you don't want your dirty laundry seen by foreign governments, don't bring it along.

I love these spas and the women are just amazing. I've never had a disappointed time. From soft to deep they cover it all. Still need to try the hot stones though.

I think the problem is that we're taking personal experience and extrapolating that into the norm. Valerie and Cristy, your experience has been that clients are looking for underage women, so you assume that this is the case across the board. On the opposite spectrum, Nat and I have not personally experienced this, so we question how this could be the norm. I would be interested to see some real figures on this. Of course, any tracking/studies on sex work, and especially underage exploitation, is going to be difficult in terms of generalization.

I think Justin Bieber needs to be put under conservatorship so his life can be under control for the betterment. The problem is: who are willing to be his conservastors? He has been acting like teenager at age of adult so that is why he has been in trouble with laws lately. Soon he will may be arrested with a felony charge which is serious. Look at Britney Spears. Her life got in a real mess until her father and his lawyer took up conservatorship on her. Several years later, her life has been turned out to be real good as a better person.

I have had many wonderful visits with various ladies and not one of them could be categorized as 'disappointing'. I feel that the only safer bets than enjoying a visit with any of the lovely ladies here on cerb are death and taxes!

What makes them different-the location in which they work. We are all "sex workers" and the perceptions that some have of street workers don't end with them they are applied to all involved in the profession, some don't even think of it as a profession, but as a "fall from grace", a desperate time in ones life, not a choice, and so on. As I said in another article, call us what you will. The differences between workers in the sex industry are their titles, tags, labels, their personalities, styles of work, places they work from, ages, looks, manners of dress, education, rates, etc. None of which make any of us better or worse than one another or entitled to more or less respect. However many of our own like to give the impression that they are deserving of more respect and at higher level by titling themselves as courtesans,imo. But a title is just that:) As far as what society thinks of us, I don't think anything will ever changes it's perception. That sadly, is set in stone :) For me that is fine as I have always had a some what " I don't give a shit attitude " concerning what others think about me and what I do. I have to live with my choices, have peace of mind with what I do and I do and that is what is important to me, not what someone else thinks. I have and will continue to live my way and those that like it-thank you and those that don't-who cares:)

^^^ Word. More about "the sexy tax" : http://everydaywhorephobia.wordpress.com/2013/08/30/taxable-blow-jobs/ :biggrin:

35 for 1/2 massage 80 extra for topless HE Posted via Mobile Device

^^^ Reminds me of Sammy Davis Jr. He was very young at 7 years old, and obviously already know as a little performer, when this movie with Ethel Waters was made Do NOT watch this if you are offended by the portrayal of black people in Hollywood during those years, because it is totally filled with Scarlett Ohara's nanny type characters. However, this is also Ethel Waters, huge at the time, and the 1933 (I think?) movie is about how she dreams of her son becoming president, which of course at the time makes the movie a comedy and tragedy, and prophetic all at the same time. He's probably in his teens here, with his father and uncle in their act.

They advertise several times a week on craigslist under the heading "Full Body Relaxation Massage". The rates are in their ads. The phone number starts with 779. The tip for a HE is halfway between their 30 minute and 45 minute rates.

All I know is the ladies I see make this fifty two year old (fifty three this year yikes) feel like he's thirty again...guess that's why I still am smiling a week after my first two encounters of 2014 For whatever it's worth RG

when it comes to mug shots , they do not give you time to sober up before taking the photo . I had a mug shot taken where not only did I have a big fun loving smile on my face , I also put my hand behind my head and gave myself " rabbit ears " . this is not allowed ! when the officer came in bitching and screaming about taking a proper shot all was fine until he put his hand on me , I throw him to the ground and than had the misfortune of meeting 5 of his co-workers , wish I had a helmet that day . these actions have little to do with stupidity and more to do with the arrogance of youth . seriously are people here so old they forget what it is like to be 19 ! I cannot speak for any one else but at 19 I was not always making mature decisions . I sure as hell did not have the world at my feet , everyone bending over backwards for me and an endless amount of cash to make any whim possible . if I had I probably would not be here today . at 19 we are adults legal terms , this has nothing to do with maturity . we all have/had a friend or more that always wanted to go " try something " . " what could happen " , I generally was that friend . though I am not a fan of his music , it is possible I do have better understanding of what he is going through than most of you . the difference being as many times as I ended up face down somewhere I shouldn't be , mom and dad were always there for me whether it be a hug or a kick in the ass . there is no reason to have so much hate for this lad . you are intelligent people , change the channel , turn it off . I have nieces that listen to his stuff non-stop , I enjoy spending time with them so I hear his music more often than I would care too . whether his career continues or not , let's just hope he gets the support he truly needs and deserves . we don't need another member of the 27 club .

But Nathalie you are 25. You shouldn't be seeing your business slump as you are still in the category of those considered young:)you'll see the difference when you hit the age that hobbyists feel is mature and although there is a demand for mature providers, to that I can attest, it doesn't compare to the demand for those who are young, lets say under 30;)

It is after great thought and consideration that I have decided that it is time to announce that I will be leaving the Massage business. I would like to thank all of you for the wonderful memories and I will never forget the kindness of you all. Thank you for teaching me so much about myself this business and how wonderful the world can be. CERB is a Great Community filled with wonderful people, and I am thankful that I have had the opportunity to experience some of that greatness. All that being said that I will be retiring from the business at the end of February, So you still have some time to live all of your Tiff Dreams :wink: I'll be here at Angel's Touch Sunday January 26th 10:00am-9:00pm Saturday February 1st 10:00am-9:00pm Sunday February 2nd 10:00am-9:00pm Friday February 8th 3:30pm-11:00pm Saturday February 9th 10:00am-9:00pm Saturday February 15th 10:00am-9:00pm Monday February 17th 10:00am-4:00pm Friday February 21st 3:30pm-11:00pm Sunday February 23rd 10:00am-9:00pm Friday February 28th 3:30-11:00pm To reach me Call Angels at 613-274-7073 Text me at 613-277-4328 or Send me a PM here on CERB Hope to see you all soon for some Kisses Tiff XoX

Good points, interesting how we all read things differently. But as far as the large demand for underage- I'll say there definitely is. When I was answering phones for escort services, everyday, and almost every other call the typical question would be who is your youngest girl, if I said 18-19 the reply would be no one younger, so.... As far as the terms used and how we refer to one another , it really doesn't bother me, hooker, prostitute, courtesan, sp, comfort woman, whatever, they are only words, titles, not defining of who I am or what I do . Only I can define that and that definition may change per my mood. However I understand the need for diplomacy and keeping it neutral for some:) I didn't read her article as she was putting herself above anyone just describing the difference between the terms. There are many in this business who think escorts are "common" and courtesans are the upper class of the escort world, and prostitutes are the lowest, and usually drug addicted. These are not my opinions but others do define themselves that way, to each their own. Again they all mean the same thing to me. As far as her referring to younger being better, I didn't get that I think she was meaning simply that younger girls are in more demand and to that I agree and again when I was dealing with services, mature women got business but not half the business the 20 somethings got.

Ohhhh... here a few more. Service providers are witches. NOT TRUE. Witches float and are thus made of wood. That's why they burn witches. Service providers are not made of wood and generally are not ducks either. Ducks float and are not made of wood. So service providers are neither ducks nor wood. Service providers tear the heads off of their mates after sex. NO!!!! You are thinking of a praying mantis. Praying mantises also float, but they are neither ducks nor wood, and also not service providers. Service providers are defenseless. NOPE!!! Service providers get their credentials from the Jean Claude Van Damme school of charm, grace and kickass. To achieve their credentials, each and every one of the graduates must face JCVD, a tiger and a fruit explosion muffin in a fiery pit of death. JCVD usually is the first to withdraw. Soooo.... if you are in the same room with a service provider know that she has faced and defeated JCVD, a tiger and a muffin with her bare hands. All service providers have a small portable barbecue in their bedrooms. I know, silly... right? Okay... MAYBE I did bring buns, condiments and raw hamburger patties to just one or two (okay it was 7) of my first encounters. HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT A HIBACHI AND HITACHI WERE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS! Now that I know better... or ... ummm... okay... there may have been some form of slapping me in the head.... but she did say that she was an expert in the handling of meat. Just sayin'. Service providers need never shave their nether regions cuz they were born that way. Ummmmm.... damn. That's kinda true. Jeeeez. But.... hmmmmm. How do you explain..... errmmmmm. I am just baffled now...

I will be available today at Angels Touch from 3:30-9pm, I am looking forward to seeing my lovely clients and hopefully some new faces! xOx My name is Mandy!

Another one is trust...that most SP's cannot be trusted My experience, the vast majority of ladies can be trusted, and I do trust them. By trust I provide my personal information for screening to a lady, and I'm not hiding my wallet, watch etc when seeing a lady...if I felt that much mistrust that I wouldn't provide screening information, and needed to hide my wallet, watch etc I wouldn't see the lady And in certain special cases there are ladies I absolutely trust without reservation...to the point of being very open and honest about my private life. A watch and wallet can be replaced, your private life, that is something only shared with very few trusted friends...yes friends, not SPs, And privacy once gone can't be replaced A rambling RG

I adore Jessie. She's a lot of fun to be with and she's my go-to ALO MA. And I'll hopefully see her tonight.

Zoe would be good choice. Riley would be a great choice as well.

I offer MSOG in my Massage Sessions.. and so far I have not encounter a situation like yours... Normally with 30 min session I always offer the gentlemen the first release upon arrival... after that I go on with a regular massage session and a release at the end... I always make sure to mention to the gentlemen that MSOG is offered as Long as the Time allows it... It is certainly not something that just depends on the lady but in multiple factors... and Physical factor from the gentleman plays the biggest part of it! Also teh gentleman has to be concious that even if in teh past he has been able to do so there is times in differecnt circumstances that the body wont function same way.. this can be caused by stress, or simply being tired...

An old regular who I adore finally tracked me down after saying he misplaced my number and isn't too internet savvvy.

I would also like to give an honourable mention to Naomi. She's relatively new here and to the business in general, but I am certain that she's going to be popular for a long time to come. One of the hottest ebony girls I've seen in a long long time. Also you should check out Marianne, who works at the Acqua location on Fridays. She's relatively new to ALO, but she's had many years of experience at other spas in town. She does know how to massage well! She's also one of the most naturally fittest MILFs I've ever seen, she has toning and definition to a level that women half her age don't.

I can confirm Justas experience with Kayla. As mine was very similar. I will not repeat or recommend.

When these stories concerning underage are brought to the media the underage girls are always represented as victims, even though many of them willingly and with a lot of planning, conniving and manipulation apply to work for someone or set themselves up to work knowing the consequences their actions could bring to those they interact with and they do this without care in many cases. I know of someone who has bragged about doing just that, years after the fact, and how she got and used fake id. Even teenagers know right from wrong and need to be held accountable. If a service hires an underage that looks of age, and many young people look much older than they are, with careful screening, id check and so on, that service and those involved could be ruined, mentally, financially and in every other way with no repercussions to the underage offender. The media then portrays the service and customers that hired that underage as the offenders and predators. I don't know what the solution is as there are wolves on both sides. I do know that it's wrong for anyone, no matter their age, to be prayed upon and used. But no matter what the truths are the media loves salaciousness, so the more the story has the more likely we'll hear about it on the radio, tv and print.

Much like my reaction RG. my first thought was "that can't be what it sounds like" .... but wait, oh yes it can. This seems like such an inherently bad idea and also needless. Nothing wrong with soap and water. Porthos

A little late on this but I'd love to say congratulations Nicolette! You truly are a wonderful contributed to this site!

I offer Duo's with Keissy Hennessy & Savannah Lane whenever our travel schedules align....

Death anniversaries- My Dads is soon approaching :( I try to remain positive by remembering all the good times but lets face it there is nothing positive or nice about losing and missing a loved one. Additional Comments: Sorry to hear that, unless there was an emergency..... sadly clients do this too. Some people are just plain rude and thoughtless-me people- they always come first and never will they accept blame for anything. I'm not saying that is this persons case, but you certainly deserve an explanation and most certainly an apology at the very least!
