and the view she got was to punish the clients, which doesn't stop prostitution at all just makes it go more underground

Just watched all 4 episodes. It's funny she did the same exact thing that she claimed Belle De Jour did. She titled it Happy Hooker but when you watch it all she basically puts on the sad music and flips it all around. Not really a fan. She seemed to give more respect to the men than she did the women. In a sense not pushing for too much detail from the men but the women she really went in on some of their most painful moments in the biz. I don't think she was really interested in going into the biz but felt this would be a great show for some school credit. Also the escort in the open relationship seemed to lay on the "look how happy we are" too thick. Still it was good to watch. Also I don't think the old guy with the houndstooth hat was being completely honest with why he started seeing escorts or why he still does today. He used the typical "wives are no longer having sex with their husbands, or we'll relationships in the past didn't really work out". For all we know this guy may like golden showers and scat smeared on him. Yeah like that's going to go over on a first date with someone off a dating site at his age.
Good to watch from a not so unique perspective but the sad music at the end really annoyed me. Like lets pity these women when not all encounter such things. I mean she couldn't find an escort that got out of the industry because some other opportunity made her leave?
Still I have to give credit to how this was directed. It made you feel like you were a fly on the wall to a woman's journey into the escort biz .Smart to draw the crowd in and drop them off the cliff.




It seemed promising at first then towards the end that sad music shit and guilt tripping I got mad at.
"Strippers are like pet tigers. They are nice to look at but they are not for everyone."






troublw ith tv is that every show has an angle. either the outcome is to paint prostitution in a favourable light or not. they make this decision at the outset then edit shows to tie in with the "angle" they want to promote :-(





Ugh!!! Wow that was disappointing! And annoying! I'm not even an escort but I'm pretty damn sure there are thousands of smart, attractive, strong women out there all very happily making a great income while setting their own boundaries, being selective about clients, and putting away a good chunk of money so that they CAN leave any time they wish to. The ones she interviewed who had bad experiences were not (and i am totally not downplaying the trauma they have gone through), let's face it, the sharpest tools in the box, and even less so, the most attractive! Did she fail to realize how that might limit their ability to charge high rates and market themselves to the higher end of customers? Basing the conclusion of her "mockumentary" on them gives a totally narrow and distorted view.
They didn't even bother to mention the thousands of women who escort because they LIKE it, and not just because of the money, and come on, if they're going to base everything on the Belle books, they very LEAST they could do would be talking to Brooke herself!
I enjoyed the parts where she got her friends, boyfriend's and mother's view (How sweet was her mum?!). But the rest was total garbage.
Still, it'll probably keep a few more girls from flooding the market![]()




Now that I come to think of it, I'm surprised she didn't talk about the legalities of the biz. She didn't interview girls who got busted and the fallout from that. And the girls she did talk to, she didn't ask them about their fears of being busted. And that "John", he didn't talk about whether he was worried about being busted. Is it legal to be an escort in London? And if not, can I pose this question to the escorts on here? How do you deal with LE, being busted, and the fines, lawyer fees, etc? Do you make that much money that it's worth the cost of a criminal record?
I'll admit, escorting is not for me because I can't fuck without getting emotionally involved. Plus the thought of fucking fat smelly guys irk me and I am a boring fuck, I just like vanilla sex. But most of all I would be most paranoid about being busted and have a permanent criminal record for a job like this that is only temporary. I applaud and respect you all who can do it.

Is prostitution legal in Britain?
Strictly speaking, prostitution has always been legal in the UK, in the sense that it is not illegal to pay for sex, or to receive money for it. But many of the activities that it involves - including soliciting, kerb-crawling, pimping, and keeping a brothel - are all against the law.
In practice, much depends on interpretation and enforcement. Campaigners argue that Asbos, for example, are frequently used against sex workers, outside of prostitution legislation.
What is the government's position?
It's under review. The Home Office has introduced a number of changes to the law, including a statutory redefinition of the term "common prostitute" and a new penalty compelling those convicted under prostitution laws to attend counselling sessions.
A new network of police tactical advisers and an action plan on ending trafficking have also been launched.
What are the arguments in favour of legalisation?
Campaigners say that where women are able to work without fear of prosecution they are much safer. They argue that even the Swedish model - where sex workers are decriminalised but those buying sex are criminalised - drives the women underground.
What are the arguments against legislation?
Moral and/or feminist arguments aside, some argue that even where the sex industry is legal, there will always be women who are so desperate they fall outside it.
They point out that several of the women who died in Ipswich had to leave more organised brothels because of their drug use and chaotic lifestyles.
What is the situation now in Ipswich?
In response to the murders, Suffolk police, action groups and local authorities put in place a strategy last spring effectively to end street prostitution in the town.
Thanks to aggressive policing - at least 120 men have been arrested - and highly dedicated support, more than 20 women have been helped out of prostitution.
But some argue that the situation for the very few who are still working - police say there are only two - is such that they are at risk of themselves being criminalised.
What other issues need to be tackled?
According to one study, 87% of street sex workers use heroin. Brian Tobin, director of the Iceni project which has helped most of Ipswich's sex workers off the streets, argues that "with street prostitution, as with burglaries, gun crime, shop-lifting, all that underpins them is drug use. Unless we effectively manage drug use in this country, everything else is fire-fighting."
The Conservative party chairman, Caroline Spelman MP, who has visited the project, told the Guardian that the party's policy was "committed to massive investment in drug rehabilitation" as part of its strategy for tackling prostitution.

I honestly think that part of the problem with documentaries about sex workers is that only the somewhat messed-up ones are the ones who would want to appear in something like that. Not that there aren't a few well-adjusted sex workers out there who wouldn't mind having their faces plastered on tv in relation to sex work (like Sasha Grey), but I think they are few and far between. I think most of the well-rounded women who just treat it as a job are more prone to staying off the radar. Unless you are an all-around devoted sex worker and are really amped about wanting to get the sex-work-positive image out there, the women who are willing to be like "oh look at me and my life selling sex" are probably the ones who are a little messed up. And wanting the attention, even negative attention, is a part of that.
That, and the fact that the story about the well-rounded sex worker who does her job and then goes home isn't exciting... Like that other thread that minnie posted about the Strip Club Queens - of course it has to be about girls cat-fighting and talking about butt implants and how they live in a trailer park... a show about the strippers who just go to the club, ignore the DR drama, and then go home and pay their bills instead of blowing all their stripper cash... well, who would watch that?
These 2 things are the reasons why I believe that an actual good documentary about sex workers just will never be made...
Don't try to win over the haters. You are not the Jerk Whisperer.
Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.



I hate how she kept using key words like GROSS and DISGUSTING! i mean if your doing an educated view point on escorting isn't there any other word you can use to describe this business especially if your supposed to not take sides and look at it from every angle i felt like she was just hating on the business from the get go and was like this is gross so im gonna make it a point to show how gross it is to the viewers but what she didn't understand is that every escort is different and we don't all go through the same things especially if were smart with what we do i felt like she was just lumping us all in one category which is unfair and biased im not saying that those things don't go on im just saying that if you are smart about it and know what your doing those risks are significantly reduced by a lot i really didn't like this documentary it was stupid and put escorts in a very BAD light
slut it out responsibly and don't forget to smile while you're whoring out!!
Glitter is like herpes that shit never goes away!
Nothing has turned out the way I planned.
And I am thankful for every minute of it!
