Why does someone become an escort?
Let's admit that
the escort work does not belong to the group of occupations about young people
dream as their future ambition. The fact that someone becomes an escort is a
coincidence of many small and sometimes unfortunate things in adulthood, which
can include a childhood trauma, growing up in a bad social environment, or just
the mere desire to overcome poverty.
If we want to
understand why exactly somebody will become an escort then the first thing to
look at is the trade itself. Nowadays working in the escort trade is one of the
most lucrative jobs. The good earning opportunity is also associated with the
fact that an escort girl can gain a great deal of profit in a relatively short
time. To illustrate it, let's take the case of an average touring escort (who
travels to foreign countries where she does sex work) who, for example, does a
week long term in Stockholm and she has been working for a year (that how
profitable she is or how many regular clients she has are not taken into
consideration now). An escort girl can earn from one thousand up to five
thousand Euros in one week's term.
This I think is
a good reason why an ambitious woman from a poor family decides to become an
escort. So the main reason for someone becoming an escort girl is to increase
living standards and lay the foundations for a career building. The type of
girl described above is usually a university/college girl or a graduate and she
can concentrate on her dreams purposefully. These girls are generally able to
get out of the escort business in time with good relations.
The next group,
but we can call it escort type, also comes from poverty, a bad social
environment, a foster home or a single-parent family into this profession.
These types of escort girls usually use some kind of helpers to enter the world
of escorts because of their ignorance and illiteracy. They belong to one of the
most vulnerable group, and either they can hardly get out of the escort
business or not at all, making their way straight into prostitution. The
helpers of this kind of escorts often teamed in criminal organizations usually
collect their pretty victims from orphanages and poor cities of some
Eastern-European countries.
Unfortunately,
there is a stratum of escorts that includes those forced into the escort
industry either by their own disadvantageous financial situation or by someone
blackmailing them. Under coerced escorts we mean those who, for example, do not
see other way out of poverty, who are deeply indebted, who do not have
qualification due to their family’s poor financial circumstances but have
ambition to earn a lot of money. Besides, there are escorts who want to provide
financial stability for their family living in deep poverty or to pay off family
loans.
Then there are
escorts who have become victims of human trafficking. These escorts are usually
deceived to go working abroad and then become forced to work in the sex
industry. It is a well-established method to offer vulnerable girls a well-paid
paid job in a foreign country. To prevent these women from escaping they are
threatened that their family members will be murdered if they do not continue
the sex work. It often happens that an escort is forced into prostitution by
her own partner or cohabitant. Emotional manipulation and physical force
sometimes are so intense that it is a wonder how these escort victims can get
out of escort business or prostitution.
Furthermore, the
worship of money or the desire for wealthy life often can be a strong motive to
become an escort. These escorts do not want a great career or build their
future consciously, but all they want is fun, spending money, having parties in
Ibiza and luxury around them in the form fashionable and posh clothes like Versace,
Louis Vuitton and GUCCI. The fast money easily mesmerizes them so they can
easily get stuck in the escort business. Getting out of sex work is very
difficult for these escorts because they cannot give up the luxurious way of
living.
Gays, shemales,
ladyboys, transsexuals and transvestites can easily get involved in the sex
industry in a sense. Due to the social stigmatization and the lack of
tolerance, it makes difficult for them to find employment, besides the
difficulties in their integration into the society. Let's say the gays are now
in a better situation than they used to be (in Europe and America), but a
shemale, a ladyboy, or a transgender person is likely to see difficulties in
finding a job. That is why it is common for these people listed above to find a
position in the night life. Becoming an escort is a real and lucrative
alternative for them.
And let's not
forget about another important reason: when a girl is a nymphomaniac and she
has no other dream than to date, to fuck, and to enjoy life with lots of men.
