 |
| 10/1/2008 12:21:47 PM From: Ali I indulged in a little phone sex with my ex-husband when he was away with his job. It didn't do anything for me, but he enjoyed it. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. |  |

| 10/1/2008 12:22:11 PM From: mercury as to how I feel about it... whatever floats your boat and is legal. |  |

 |
| 10/1/2008 12:24:22 PM From: MrsK Would you ever consider it as a source of income? |  |
 |
 |
10/1/2008 12:27:21 PM From: mercury sure... as long as the guy at the guy at the other end gets off a whole lot of giggling  |  |

| 10/1/2008 12:31:37 PM From: Ali If I was low on other options, performing the services legally and lived in a household where there was no chance of minors overhearing me do my job, sure. |  |

| 10/1/2008 12:54:39 PM From: Ali Speaking of entrepeneurs, I should open up a Sarah Palin phone sex line. I have her accent down pat (pretty easy being a NoDak). I could milk thousands out of the Jungle fellows alone. Call 1-900-GUNGURL! |  |

| 10/1/2008 12:56:53 PM From: timesjoke I like playing with fantacy, some of the oldest forms of art are very sexual. The fantacy with a stranger is common, phone sex would be the safest way to dabble in this while many others run out to do it for real.......as far as making money from it.....well I don't think I would go for that kind of thing, I would agree with Ali on the conditions making it okay such as no children who could listen, but I keep sexual entertainments as a strictly 1 on 1 proposition. |  |

| 10/1/2008 3:33:01 PM From: wildbob Perhaps that bankers were all into phone sex rather than looking at who they should lend money to. You may have figured out the entire banking crisis. | |

| 10/1/2008 6:36:03 PM From: Rani yeah but thing is you never really know who you are talking to on the phone or the internet for that matter. Could even be YOUR MOM! |  |

| 10/1/2008 6:36:28 PM From: Rani Or mother-in-law. But a great source of income. |  |

| 10/1/2008 7:21:10 PM From: beags It doesn't bother me. In fact, prostitution doesn't bother me, either- I think it should be legal and come with STD testing and free condoms. Reason being: have you seen what happens down at the bars on any given night? Men buy women drinks (costs money) or take them to fancy dinners (costs money) or buy them things (costs money) all in hopes that they'll get laid. Half the time when they do, they get some because they managed to get the girl drunk enough to think it's a good idea to have sex. It would free up the courts systems of many "rape" cases based on ridiculous accusations and then free up time from the prostitution cases. Square deal, both parties know up front what's at stake and what they'll get. | |
 |
 |
| 10/1/2008 7:22:53 PM From: beags All that said, I don't think I would do either. I don't want to sleep with random men, and I don't want to laugh at them while they ask me what I'm wearing.. I wouldn't make any money because I'd probably be honest.. what guy wants to hear "Oh, some running pants and a gym shirt." | |
 |
 |
| 10/1/2008 8:46:38 PM From: timesjoke Nice post beaqs, I agree, my own beliefs for my life would not allow things like this but I see no reason to stop it from society in general. I like the idea of legal prostitution, like you said, what is the difference between spending a hundred bucks on a date or a hundred bucks on a prostitute? I think this would be great for both women and men. Men only interested in meaningless sex will not waste a woman't time pretending to like her just to bang her then take off, she will have a much better shot as spending time with guys looking for a relationship. Women get what they want, men get what they want, win/win. Where there is a problem is many women view things like prostitution and porn as damaging to all women so I think this is stopping it from being legal more than anything else. |  |

 |
| 10/1/2008 8:54:34 PM From: Ali "Where there is a problem is many women view things like prostitution and porn as damaging to all women so I think this is stopping it from being legal more than anything else." - Yes, it's all the women's fault. Ultra conservative Christian groups are made up totally of women and no men who preach against this sort of thing. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/1/2008 9:04:54 PM From: timesjoke Oh please stop with the drama, was my statement wrong? Do many women see things like porn, stripping and prostitution as demeaning to all women? That chip on your shoulder is bigger than Alaska. |  |
 |
 |
10/1/2008 9:21:36 PM From: MrsK Awww, Ali's found a new playmate. *snickers* |  |
 |
 |
| 10/1/2008 9:43:08 PM From: Rani I don't see prostitution or porn as deamning to women. I actually seeing it as women knowing what they got and how to use it to reduce a man to a pile of rubble. Men are so easy when they think they are going to get some action satisfaction. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/1/2008 9:47:27 PM From: Rani At the end of the day, I see it for what it is and nothing more. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 4:05:45 AM From: timesjoke "reduce a man to a pile of rubble" well nice male bashing there but it kinda misses the point. the idea was if actions of a few women color all women. I say it is all similar, I see people like anna nichole smith as the highest paid hooker to ever take a breath. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 6:08:48 AM From: MrsK So, didn't you just agree that Prostitution should be legal? If so, why the sudden sarcasm about Anna Nichole??? lol! |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 7:22:42 AM From: Rani Oh please TJ, a man will step a few steps lighter if he is sexually satisfied. And God can they beg like crazy for it when they want it and she is not giving it up. Don't even try to tell me I am wrong. Seriously though, for the most part porn and strip joints are purely entertainment. Prostitution is like you said, meaningless sex and serves its purpose. And once again, the lack of body language led you to believe I was being nasty when I said "reduce a man to a pile of rubble" when in fact, it was a tongue in cheek, mischievous grin kind of thing. You know, comic relief. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 7:43:36 AM From: timesjoke Not sarcasm, my point of view, I still believe there is nothign wrong with it. Again, I have my own beliefs and morals but I can seperate my need for my life and circles without trying to force that on all of society. On a personal level I believe sex is a glorious gift from God that allows two people to truly connect and communicate love's language with a soul to soul connection. By charing that connection with many souls I believe we confuse our souls and end up losing our ability to make that connection. Then sex becomes similar to a toilet, any one will do to relieve yourself. |  |

| 10/2/2008 8:51:29 AM From: Ali What fukking drama? If you took the time to even learn about women, you'd find that many are fine with porn as long as it doesn't showcase brutalizing women. Most feminist groups advocate that a woman can be whatever she wants when she grows up and if she wants to be a whore, then so be it. These groups are more concerned with knowing that the women in pornography are of legal age and consent, treated with respect and not abused on screen or behind the scenes. Are there some feminist groups who are completely anti-porn? Yes, but it's fewer than you think. The biggest group who wants to do away with porn entirely is the Conservative Christian Coalition, who is made up of both sexes and typically led by men. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 8:53:09 AM From: Ali How knowing these facts makes me dramatic and carrying a giant chip on my shoulder is beyond me. The only one I see bordering on hysterics and acting like a big Sally here is you, TJ. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 9:17:07 AM From: timesjoke Ali, your playing drama queen by getting all up in airs over things I never say. Where did I ever say most or all women are against porn? I said "many" not all. Many women do think things like porn, etc is demeaning to women. Myself, I think phrases like "my baby daddy" has done more harm to women on a whole than porn. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 9:38:30 AM From: eddo ^^OH NO YOU DI'INT!!!! |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 10:15:42 AM From: Ali Really? You're going to split hairs over most/many? Stop assuming you know precisely what women think, feel and believe, TJ. You might gain more credibility around this site if you did. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/2/2008 10:19:43 AM From: Ali You've already told us that men are simpletons who only worry about food and where to stick their dicks. Then stop trying to analyze the more complex sex because you're doing a really poor job of it. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/3/2008 8:27:21 AM From: timesjoke Actually my doing a great job of it is what keeps you pissed off, women try to keep men off balance but there are a few things that can be understood if you simply watch...........like how women look around a room to assess the "threat" level of the other women in the rooom when she enters, especially with her man.........Men will never know everything about women, but I understand as much as a man can understand. |  |
 |
 |
10/3/2008 8:36:56 AM From: Ali It's interesting to see that you like to focus on the negative aspects of a woman ("what pisses us off" and you must hang out with some really insecure bitches. No wonder you think the way you do. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/6/2008 9:15:23 AM From: Feckless Wench I'd be crap at it, kudos to those women who do make money in this way though. |  |
 |
 |
| 10/6/2008 10:10:01 AM From: Ali I have to laugh - even when we quote TJ verbatim, we're still "putting words in his mouth"...lol. What a yutz. |  |
