THEY are as wrong as racism …

For nearly a decade now, I’ve been helping adult entertainers, just like yourself, make more money with their escorting businesses.

I have been in touch with literally thousands of adult entertainers.

Many of the escorts I’ve worked with have shared with me their biggest frustrations and problems.

Over time I have found that ALL these frustrations were often the result of ONE thing.

They were not treating the escorting business like a “real” business.

When pressed further, these same women admitted that if they were to open a restaurant, or a beauty salon, they would take that business much more seriously than they do their escorting business.

Why is this?

It isn’t glamorous to hear, but in many cases, when we dug deeper, we would find this was stemming from a lack of self-esteem around being an escort.

It’s not a big mystery that this industry is looked down upon by simple-minded individuals.

The problem is, simple-minded people often make a lot of noise about their simple-minded opinions.

And unfortunately I’ve seen a lot of ladies get distracted by this noise.

If you are getting distracted by the noise, I want to tell you something very important.

You may already know this, but it bares repeating.

The companionship of a consenting adult, such as yourself, offering your time and sensual services for compensation, is one of the most beautiful contributions you can offer the world.

It is a 100% legitimate business.

It is at least as legitimate and worthy a business as owning a restaurant, as selling insurance, as being a doctor, or a lawyer.

Furthermore, in my opinion, it’s MORE legitimate than many other types of businesses that are supported by the general public.

For example, the tobacco or even the fast food industries.

The consumption of addictive carcinogens to our lungs, or fried and modified frankenfoods to our stomachs, are both known to cause damage to our health.

Yet people walk in and out of stores to buy cigarettes, and fast food chains to buy very unhealthy food, every single day, without a second’s judgement. The general public seem to ignore the very obvious victims (themselves!) that are created due to these businesses’ success.

These are the same people that uphold illogical laws preventing the sale of something that is perfectly legal to give away for free.

The next time you drive by a store selling tobacco, or a McDonald’s, Burger King, Taco Bell, I hope that you
remember for a split second that escorting is a much more meaningful contribution to society than these businesses.

One day, I believe professional companionship will be properly appreciated for what it is.

If history repeats itself, then it will be.

History shows us many examples of escorts being revered.

Some held as much sway as the empress of an empire.

Others had enough wealth to rebuild entire cities after tragic wars.

In ancient Greece companions held high positions of governing power.

I can see a day in the future, not too long from now, when professional companionship begins to take a step forward again, in this direction.

But, given the current social and political climate in most places, for now, it is mostly going to be up to YOU to remind yourself of these truths.

And unfortunately sometimes you will be exposed to outside
forces sending you the opposite message.

Your government, the media, even friends and family. All telling you what you are doing is wrong in some way.

But it’s all noise.

When someone tells you that what you are doing is wrong or in any way something to be ashamed of: THEY are wrong.

They are wrong in the same way that people who looked down on the “speakeasy” business during the Prohibition era in the 1930′s were wrong.

80 years ago someone drinking a glass of wine would have been seen as a filthy criminal.

Now the very finest restaurants around the US serve exquisite wine and spirits without judgement.

They are wrong in the same way that the policemen arresting female suffragists in the 1900′s were wrong.

These were women non-violently standing up for women’s right to vote. A right that seems like basic common sense today.

And yet many people at the time thought the idea of a woman voting was despicable.

They are wrong in the same way the men who ordered Rosa Parks to give up her seat on the bus to make room for a white passenger were wrong.

Merely 50 years ago in the US, a black man or woman was seen as inferior, subhuman even.

And yet now the USA has its first black family in the White House.

Have you ever watched the Martin Luther King’s I have a dream speech in full?

If you have not, you owe it to yourself to watch it now.

It is one of the most inspiring things I’ve ever seen in my entire life.

It’s only about 15 minutes long, so be sure you have enough time to sit down for the whole thing before you start it.

Seriously, watch it now. It will take 15 minutes and it will change you.

If you never read another one of my blog posts, if you unsubscribe from my mailing list and decide never to buy anything from me ever, as long as you take to heart the message in this one single email, I will feel like I’ve done my job.

Because way more important to me than another dollar, is my mission to empower you, as an adult entertainer, to run a successful business.

A successful escort business that will put serious cash in your bank account, attract amazing clients, and keep you safe from outside persecution.

The foundation for ALL of this is to start treating your business like a real business.

And the secret to learning how to treat your business like a real business is to start taking pride in what you are doing.

So, ignore the noise.

Take full pride in being an escort.

Know that people with low opinions of escorting are the sheep. When the winds of popular opinion blow in a different direction, so will they.

You, on the other hand, are not a sheep.

You are a star.

You are laying the foundation for your own EMPIRE no less.

And it all starts with recognizing that you have more in common with Greek aristocracy than you do with your landlord, self-righteous relatives, or any of the countless employees you know still stuck on hamster wheels in their cubicles.

YOU have chosen to take matters into your own hands.

You have chosen to lead with your own mind, heart, and body.

Take pride in what you do, soon you will be the Queen of your own Empire.

Take care,

    Wow!

    I just want to say these words have really touched me! I’ve not been working for 6 months now. Up until I quit, I was really appreciated by the people I worked with but for some reason I started to question my line of work. It was mainly due to what others were saying about it. I started to become influenced by some of these views and stopped working. I’ve been miserable ever since!

    Reading this page means so much to me! It’s reminded me of all the positive reasons I got involved in the industry in the first place. It’s my passion and it’s what I’m good at so why follow what others do when I’m here to be me. I believe that perhaps I have touched people’s lives by doing this and that as you pointed out ‘The companionship of a consenting adult offering time and sensual services for compensation, is one of the most beautiful contributions you can offer the world’.

    Thank you so much for this! You’ve taken the time to give us this wonderful information and inspire us, I really appreciate that!

    Now it’s time for me to ‘take pride in what I do, soon I will be the Queen of my own Empire’.

    WOW this article highlighted exactly how I often feel when placing ads on eros.com or looking for conventions on menintransit.com or my locale chamber of commerce. Often times I get this feeling of frustration because of the
    notion created in my mind by the “simpletons” of the worldthat says that I’m not good enough because I am an escort.

    This article has given me a new way of looking at what I love to do! Thank you so much writing this! so inspiring!

    Hi Erin. Geez, for this very same reason I have been dipping my toe in and out of the water of escorting for the last 6 years. Time that could have been well spent building my empire. However, things happen for a reason and maybe now is the time that I take MY business seriously and tell others to mind their own ;)

    Thank you for giving us a positive voice!

    Your post is very dear to my heart because until I was attacked at knifepoint, I had a sliver of confidence in my work. I had accepted it as the best way to support and keep my family together. Your writings give me hope because we as sex workers are also so very diverse and our goals and reasons for our careers are as well. I want to know how to let go of the guilt and shame and replace it with a positive spirit.
