    Default ESCORTS; Diary of a Call Girl, what did you think of it?

    Were you able to watch it? What about it was not realistic? Do you think it glorified/glamorized the job more than it should have?
    I've never been an escort but I always thought it was weird that she brought her clients to her very own apartment..... sure she had a separate room but still, is that not pretty stupid?

    I love the show! But there's no way every freakin' guy would be attractive like Ashok. He was crazy fine!

    Never watched it, but I can tell you the practice of bringing clients to one's home is very common here in Canada. Many incall escorts operate out of their own home. They say it makes them feel safer as they are in an environment that they know.

    I have been an escort, but would never invite a client into my home. I used a location that I shared with other ladies. I would often hang out at the location between clients and sometimes even stay the night. A few times I have had to deal with men just showing up (without a call) or drunks that sounded normal on the phone. I would turn these guys away, as it is very rude to show up at someone's door without calling first! I can't imagine having to deal with this problem at my home.

    im not an escort but i did feel it was glorified in the first season, and i also noticed the producers may have thought the same as the second and third contain more of the downsides of escorting not just like im rich, glamourous, love money, love sex, living the life etc. so it was good to get some perspective before it gets too encouraging. i wish there was a show for strippers like it too. i do love it.

    I like the idea of sharing a place with other girls for meeting clients. I remember seeing an episode where this guy puts her in this amazing condo and she turns it down. WTF.......

    Wasn't that crazy! I would have taken that condo in a heartbeat. The man wasn't even going to be in town more than a day a month or less! What's the problem? She wants her freedom to scrounge for bookings with random douches instead of this one cool dude?

    yeh i didnt quite get the whole turning down being a courtesan thing but i can understand it probably being more personal just to be the paid wife of one guy coz if that goes wrong it could prob mess her up a lot more than a series of douches she considers 'work'

    though i been DYING to see her and ben together. AHHH

    Sooo In love with that show!! I wanted her and Ben to get together too but wow it was such a mess. I felt the same thing with the whole courtesan spread. She's someone's trophy wife instead of doing whatever she wants. I thought wait what happens when he gets tired of you? Out on your ass? Plus she looses all the clients she built connections with? I hated Ben when he screwed her sister. That was it for me. Total bust in my eyes with that move.

    Was it me or did anyone else hate that cop. Ugg that guy was on such a control freak trip.

    Glamorized then it showed some horrible parts. Ohh and that editor guy sleeping with Bambam. Uggg. Talk about total back stab. There was just too much pain for her with all of these men that acted like their shit didn't stink.

    I liked it for what it was: pure fluff. Not one of my favorite shows, but it kept me entertained.

    I just noticed you're speaking in past tense. Is the series done then?

    Yep, it finished here in the UK last year (I think it was last year anyway.)

    I enjoyed it, I can't speak as an escort but I did think it glossed over a lot. But then, it wasn't a documentary!

    I'm a camgirl, but what my persona wears I'd never wear on the street. It is washed and stored in a different place [I prefer to say HIDDED, btw!].

    I haven't seen the show, but I did read the book. Overall; the book was ok. I enjoyed reading "Confessions of a Working Girl" a lot better.
