How did Viv become a hooker in the first place?


She had no pimp, and she wasn't on drugs, so what's her deal?

reply

Vivian explained it after the picnic.
She was stuck in LA after few bad jobs with no money. Cat took her in. She was already working as one. Viv said she made it sound elegant.

go into a lucrative business is her deal

Bad influence from a bad crowd basically.

She was a movie hooker; they aren't much like real life ones.

reply

LOL, excellent point.

reply

He-he really? Roberts looks like a barbie doll compared to them.

reply

Same reason all hookers become hookers; they want and need money

reply

yeah but we all want and need money

reply

Some hookers just like what they do - they aren't necessarily on drugs or have a pimp.

reply

That sounds more like the exception rather than the rule

reply

some hookers are just sex addicts that want to get paid instead of giving it away for free all day

reply

and like I said before, yes but I'm sure that's not the majority. In the same way most of them don't look like Amber heard or Lucy Liu.

the street hookers here in McMurica sure dont but if u go out to the red light district in Amsterdam they look pretty dang good, unfortunately they are hookers so its like throwing a hot dog into a hallway

Its kind of gross that he picked up a hooker. Hookers service ~1 cock an hour. They work up to 12 hrs per day for years... even if they only work 200 days a year, they are sucking a couple thousand cocks a year....

If they go into porn they are gross too. Because, their assholes look like a worn out catchers mitt before the age of 30.

Where do you get your data? What did your research entail, exactly?

reply

Interesting. I hadn't considered that.

But how many women work "the bottom" of that industry? I live near a city that a couple generations ago had a very lively underground sex industry. I never frequented a hooker but the rep was for even "industrial work" a woman would not be sucking one penis per hour. And the ones that did specialties such as group sex did not do it every waking hour of the day. Unless you are a guy at the very bottom of society you want some degree of quality so you are not using an assembly line type hooker. While we are at it not all pimps and madams are what are shown in the movies. A fair amount of time the boss is some woman that knows how and is willing to exploit other women. As I said before most women employed as hookers have some emotional or mental issue that holds them back from being more in society than what they are. While I don't doubt the existence of the happy hooker I would say that they are a rarity.

As to porn most women are in by mid to late teens and "retired" by their mid 20's. They have to have a certain mystique to stay employed beyond that. Usually within a couple of years they are used up in terms of running the gambit of themes including but not limited to group sex and the use of certain openings. Chalk it up to guys frequently wanting new "faces" to look at.

She loves the cock. And you do what you're good at I guess.
