Agreed.

For me, that is certainly the case. I'm the guy that always says the wrong thing and quickly scares off any woman who may have been interested at a glance. Maybe some men can make a nice translation from hobby to personal life but my first thoughts on approaching a beautiful woman since hobbying are along the lines of, "what do you think she'd go down for, $100, $200?" Hobbying simplifies an otherwise overcomplicated dance between two people who have mutually symbiotic needs, at least it does in an over-thought, over-rational mind like mine. I am not able to make a connection between the two worlds in that way.

Pretty much sums up my situation.

With the exception of this little nugget, i'm not sure there's really anything you could learn that you shouldn't already know.

I sure have been a lot happier since taking part in the hobby.

That fucking with a rubber is not really fucking.

But I knew that when I was 12 years old.

The hobby has shown me that there is absolutely NOTHING like the feel of a woman's skin against mine and the rush I feel when I am with someone new and I am encouraged to let go ... and I am released by her ... all under her power.

The hobby is a place where I finally found that I can find my fantasy and live it.

Not always.. but.. Im certainly happier since I started this business. Its nice not to struggle so much for once. Worked my ass off my whole life, sacrificed A Lot to start my own business and its nice not to struggle so much with it.. Gave up everything, even my love at the time, my favorite car. Which was a Huge Deal for me as i worked my ass to get the car in the first place! lol Nice to upgrade my day business. Its a good feeling upgrading your future. Im fortunate I can do this job and reap some serious rewards.. with a quickness.

Thanks for being a bunch of horny bastards!

And I really never expected this job would be less about the sex as much as its all about "sex". At least the gentlemen that come see me anyways.

It's worth doing business with professionals regardless of the industry.

While, I have gotten lucky with some amateurs, I have to agree with this.

I have made the best of friends with a bunch of both the men and women....When the chips have been down they have been there to pick me up. Great guys over the years have helped me move, helped me with transpo when I got seperated from my husband, and all around I have found it an addition to my "personal life". However, my lifestyle choice has always been on a need to know basis...There are times I do take a break or I would go insane!!! When I went west and worked at The Bunny Ranch I was "prepared" for the cathouse from the MP's I worked at here...I have learned it's a business you have tto use your instincts. Being a veteren at this 12 years later, I would say as long as everyone gets tested, uses protection and common sense and if us ladies share info instead of being jealous and money hungry we all "come" out better in the long run. I would write more butt I just woke up~ xoxo,Shana

I wish I could properly answer the OP's question.
My goals in this hobby are to share, learn, and experience. I find that I'm still learning.
I can say without question that I'm grateful for the friends that I've met along this path. My personal philosophy is that our mundane repetitive daily lives allows for no intrapersonal growth. I have recently discovered that new experiences and friends of the hobby provides us opportunities to learn more about ourselves and those around us. Like I said, I'm still learning.
Also, my penis really loves a beautiful woman!

The best and worst of people can be found in the hobby. And the hobby can bring out the best and worst from all.

I think I found a safe way to answer this. After thinking it over.
