More the reason why I HATE the people who try to extort our only income. I know how it feel. Yes, maybe not on that level some punters had,as I don't have anything to loose, but yet it was horrible. I felt like in a way someone try to "rape" me , if that makes sense. Maybe not the right wording. Apologies, as I'm Afrikaans.
I think I know exactly what you're saying. It's so ugly...I'm even tempted to use the word "evil". I honestly don't know how I would handle such a situation, never mind if I was in your shoes. Cunilinkiss is right: you have bigger balls than us :)



And here I am... Doing an "unethical job" in the eyes of the righteous people,but I do it for ethical reasons. Not one ounce of regret in my body. I love what I do. It's who I am. It's my passion. Thank you guys.

Thank you very much Mr.

Strip the makeup and sexy lingerie and the "stage" off of us, at the very end of every day, we just ordinary people with goals and dreams.

My children know and I had no problems with them understanding or accepting. They are well balanced adults with a very open view towards life. It did not change anything in our relationships with each other. My children has always respected the fact that I was raising then as a single mom I think knowing only made them respect everything in life a little bit more.

My extended family knows.
Most seem to understand and accept.
(I think a few actually felt ashamed about themselves when realising they had been asking money from me for years when they run short while having decent well paying jobs) It definitely changed the dynamic of some of those relationships but definitely for the better.

For the rest.. if they do ask or do find out...;) This is my Moto in dealing with it...

Those that matter don't mind and those that mind don't matter.;)

I honestly don't have space or energy to waste on people that still live with blinkers on. You either deal with it and be in my life or move on. I won't even waste time trying to make you understand or accept it.

If I had to be in that scenario, I would not disclose it to family. I might disclose it to friends in my inner circle but that's it.

I was at a dinner last night when the story of a well known retired rugby player came up.
He makes a living now by doing motivational speaking and earns 80 thousand dollars a gig. (I wish I was making this up) Apparently he hates it but realizes that his career as a rugby player was short lived and he needs to make a living, somehow.

I asked if he was any different to the ladies on this site who also exchange time for money.
The feeling at the table was that he is no different.

Food for thought!

That's an interesting analogy. How do you get to that?
