Despite being commonly known as one of the oldest profession in the world, escorts are still thought of as exotic appearances in most people’s day-to-day lives. That is partly because their job makes for such a taboo in some parts of the country and within more conservative groups of people. That’s a story for another time, though, as right now it’s more important to go through what kind of questions one can ask an escort, and more specifically, which questions are better left unsaid.

I learned that the hard way back in the day when I was a provider myself, but only recently I started to think about questions I’ve been asked due to finding a really cool collection of stories. The book is called Love Not Given Lightly and is written by a really cool gal and amazing author, Tina Horn. She spend a lot of hours talking with escorts and then wrote a book based on their stories.

Horn discovered that a lot of people are prone to ask escorts inappropriate questions, not necessarily out of bad will, but rather because of common misconceptions related to escorts. The main culprit here is the mere idea that since escorts are some of the most open-minded people on earth, they don’t care for any kind of boundaries, so people don’t shy away from asking them very personal questions sometimes.

Without further ado, here are some of the questions and statements that escorts said they felt uncomfortable with:

·        Where did you get the idea for this name?

·        What is your real name?

·        You must be having daddy issues since you’re doing this job. Were you abused?

·        Do you realize how demeaning your job is, since you’re being exploited every day?

While the first may be thought of as legitimate, with guys just giving voice to their mere curiosity, the latter are downright crossing all boundaries. Luckily, most of the guys are gentlemen when they make an appointment with escorts nowadays, and it’s always important that they keep in mind treating someone right goes a long way.
