Thank you Riley! I don't watch T.V. so I miss out on programs like this one. If it wasn't for your post, I would've missed it. I'm really looking forward to watching. Thanks again for taking the time to do this. You rock.:D

if I can find it online or put it online I will post it there is another one that I have to buy the dvd and post it online myself. I have an idea how to do with my old dvd/vhs player and software on my computer.

So in a nutshell, according to Diane Sawyer and the producers of 20/20, all woman involved in the sex trade are either emotionally damaged, poor and uneducated, sufferers of low self-esteem, victims of sex abuse or drug addicts.

Hmm. Interesting view. Especially since I personally don't fall into any of these categories, as I'm sure many of my fellow SPs don't either. I don't do drugs, so I was never forced into this profession to fund my addictions. I was never sexually abused or molested as a child, adolescent or a teen-ager. I'm a highly educated University graduate, and I have a very healthy level of confidence in myself. So why are we here then Diane? Are we just kidding ourselves when we say we enjoy men and sex and sensuality and feeling good? Because no women in her 'right' mind would sell the most precious gift she has? Her body? No, they got it all wrong. We women in this industry are powerful. We call the shots, we decide who we see, as well as the services we choose to provide or not. And the most precious gift we have to give is not our bodies, it's our souls.

And they're never for sale.

I was also hoping for a broader survey of stories, but Ms. Sawyer decided to stick to the narrative. I've always wondered how a country that has legalized brothels and a gigantic porn industry also gave birth to the likes of the Moral Majority and Andrea Dworkin. E Pluribus Unum, I guess...
