@Plane_Jane thank you for sharing! There were many sugar babies/prostitutes in the original Jetsetbabe and Inner Circle groups. To me I consider it all the same. People like to classify sex work and the word prostitute is somehow bad, but selling sex is the same in all forms. I am glad you managed to escape and make a better life for yourself. I hope you have a retirement plan and eventually get out of the "life".
Maybe you can say a few words to those people who still believe in the Pretty Woman fantasy that Anna is selling.
I always found it shocking that women love that movie. The most hilarious and sad part of it is that they think a rich man who hires an escort will no. 1 not want sex, no. 2 want a relationship with them, and no. 3 will be motivated to "save" them from the lifestyle.
One thing I miss from those days when we had the group was how open everyone was. To anyone reading: the stories in the jetset world are not what you see on Instagram, believe me.
I also consider that being a sugar baby and a prostitute is the same. The word prostitute has a very bad reputation, which is why many women decide to "make up or sweeten" their profession with sugar baby. This, especially, happens at the beginning, when they really do not understand how much is the price you can ask for a night, for example. Many men take advantage of the situation, offering them, for example, 300 pounds to spend a full night with him, having sex all night. When, any prostitute, would not ask for less than 1000 pounds. For example. They take advantage of the lack of conscience of these women to give them a pittance of money. Obviously not all men do this, but it is becoming increasingly rare to find a man who will pay you tons of money for nothing. Most will try to pay you as little as possible. (Especially in this bubble of the world sugar babies are).
I have no plans to retire yet, as I am enjoying my job. But the moment this is no longer the case, I will go into another trade, perhaps spontaneously turning to prostitution if I feel like it. I study so I don't have to do something I hate and live frustrated like Anna Bey, for example.
As for pretty woman, honestly, I have had very few clients who have not asked me for sex, the vast majority want sex, but also a large percentage of these are looking for a pleasant female company, that has more than two neurons connected to have a conversation , for example. Not only is it worth being pretty, most don't care if you have expensive bags or expensive clothes.
As for a relationship with a client ... It's very complicated. I have had clients who have asked me for marriage, dates, free sex ... I reject them. I am not interested in mixing love and business, although I know women who have married clients, some have beautiful relationships with those who were once their clients, etc ... Among these clients, there are men of great purchasing power. But to be honest, this is not the norm. Most of these clients are married, widowed, or too busy to be in a relationship or simply not interested in long-term relationships. (There are also those who are not able to get a girlfriend, either because of shyness or because they are not the prototype of masculine beauty.)
Today I have a boyfriend, we live together and we have a very beautiful relationship, he knows and respects my work and we are very happy together. But, I don't know if he could have a relationship with a client. Couldn't probably trust him. (I mean if he was married cheating on his wife or having a girlfriend or something.)
And finally; I have heard stories of "sugar daddys" paying 50 pounds to a sugar baby after having sex with her. Other sugar daddys become obsessed with these girls, find out where they live and harass them, even compulsively making calls to their phone numbers at all hours. Some girls have denounced these men and are awaiting trial, etc ...
When you are a prostitute, the limits are very marked, you pay for "X" time, then the client leaves, and does not contact you again until he wants to make another reservation. However, in the world of sugar babies the limits are much more blurred, it is assumed that you have a type of relationship with this man, and they end up becoming quite abusive and controlling on many occasions.
This is the main reason why many sugar babies end up practicing prostitution as such, it is calmer and you meet people, as a general rule, less crazy.
Saying so is extremely insensitive and disrespectful. Like my middle school German teacher would say : "Don't say it's ugly, say you don't like it".
