Escort work??

anniestar

Not really sure if this is the correct board but not sure where else to post. This is for some advice as I am in a quandary. I had a phone call from a close friend yesterday asking for my advice.(can I just say it really is for a friend am not being euphemistic) I honestly don't know what to say to her so thought someone on here may be able to help.
She told me her husband is considering becoming a male escort and what did I think?:eek: Not sure who's idea it is his or hers, didn't even know they had any money problems and she was rather guarded about why they had come up with the idea at all. Seems to think its all about taking single ladies out to dinner, meetings and parties. I googled escorts and it came up with pages of rather scantily clad women:eek: :eek: !!!!
What I need to know is there such a thing as male escorts & are they above board so to speak?
I am close to them (mainly her as we were at uni together)but have drifted a bit as we live in different parts of the country and "life" kind of gets in the way. They have been married ages, about 18 years and (I think) a very strong relationship. Both are working full time, wasn't aware of any serous money troubles. He is ok looking reasonably tall (lot shorter than my DH so guess about 6') and smart.
I have told her about this site and said she should do a SOA but she didn't seem too keen. Was going to ring her on Thursday evening but got a text this morning saying she will ring me tomorrow night.
What do I do? Anyone know anything about such agencies??
DH is appalled and thinks it is huge joke(mind you this is from a man so shy he would either spontaneously com bust or break the world land speed record if any woman looked twice at him:rotfl: !)
I get the feeling this is serious but I am totally at a loss.
Any ideas will be gratefully received.
Thanks for reading.

There are male escorts the same as female escorts.

I would imagine he's seen the "lonely older companions" market, which probably is more atuned towards male escorts in that sense...I can imagine when men get to that age they want something completely different ahem.

Try googling "Male Escort", when I did I got atleast one result that states explcitly in the headlines that it's a non-sexual service.

Other than that, why not approach advicing your friend as you would any other decision

Ask her how she feels about it, does she have any misgivings, how would she feel if he started enjoying his work, would she get jealousdiscuss the need to check the agency he is considering out thoroughly. Does it have a good reputation, does it offer good rates of pay, how does it resolve any disputes

Try offering a sounding board, rather than giving advice

Hi i use to do it and my best mate still does it you basically attend parties, functions work do's all sorts of things really where the woman wants a companion, My best mate is in italy with a business woman that has been his client for many years now. (Lucky git)

Not really the best idea if your in a relationship as you will get asked for extra's wink wink nudge nudge. And this is were the real money is to be made. its all above board because they are buying your company to functions not for the sex, but what goes on between 2 adults behind stays beind the doors, because if the company you work find out or let you do it then that becomes prostitution.

hope this helps

Thanks for the replies I am really grateful. I am going to post the link to her and also again urge her to at least have a look on mse-whatever the problem is there will always be someone that can help. And.......well that's it really. Spent ages worrying about it and trying to work out what to say but at the end of the day its really not my problem(that makes me sound really hard and I 'm not honestly) we are really struggling at the moment (as are an awful lot of us) and they are both adults more than capable of making their own choices. DH pointed that out last night and much as it pains me to admit it-he was right:p .
So many many thanks for taking the time to read and to offer advice. I am very grateful. Have a nice day and again, thanks. A xx

Coming from the other side of the tracks - as someone who has done a few dubious things in the past...

There are very few escorts that don't have sex with their clients. Those that don't have sex are mostly dommes in my experience (and usually offer some sort of additional similar services - lets not go into that). The idea that they're wined and dined and then head home is very romantic, but not reality at all.

Escorting is the legal name for prostitution, and I sure as hell wouldn't let my fella do it.

I would even be dubious of the ones that explicitly claim it's a non sexual service - because they're quite possibly doing that only to appear on the right side of the UK's prostitution laws!

A male friend makes a full time living on adultwork.co.uk. Draw your own conclusion from the site!

I don't know of many Pro-Domme who offer sexual services (I assume thats what you mean by similar to sex..ie not full penetration). Those who offer any level of sexual service tend to be anal training and occassionaly you'll see one who allows intimate body worship but thats fairly rare.

I wouldn't recommend that the OP's friend tries to become a Pro-Domme (or the husband a Pro-Dom) though unless they are very skilled in this area.

I know someone who is a male escort and its not all about attending parties with mature women - sure they pay for their time but they also want extras such as sex:eek:

If your friend's husband is good at DIY, gardening etc there is certainly a market for it - there is a chap near to me called Husband to Rent for all those DIY jobs (I haven't used him but have seen his ad in the local paper).

There are better ways of making money to be honest with you.

horace you can have non-sexual escorts .. not all of its about sex
