Perhaps most of us here could agree that in the art world - there is a fine line between cutting edge, abstract and interesting, and just plain stupid and pretentious. :|

Well... It makes sense. There loads of white horses made of chalk covering alot of the hills over that way. Although it doesn't make much sense to have a 3D figure of something that's already 2D, I agree.

I would much rather have an actual 'Angel of the South' than a 'Horse of the South.' :P

But alas, I have studied art for a couple of years with probably one of the most pretentious teachers ever. Although he was cool, sometimes I wanted to smack him with mallet. :D
I mean, when he wasn't being pretentious he was cool. xD

^^ Wow, that really sucks!! What do you do?


On the flip side of that: It's really un-awesome not having a job, no money, and having to go out on Monday to scrounge around for work. It's just hard. Lots of rejection, lots of NOBODY OFFERING JOBS THESE DAYS, lots of wondering and waiting. Lots of disappointment.


*sigh* I need the money. Actually really need it this time, not just for recreation. :|

Dubious...

We were drinking when we read that and when you said that we began looking at the actual escorts on the site, and then we started looking for escorts near where we live... Out of curiosity and not requirement, obviously; I don't want to pay to fuck an STD-ridden whore when I could quite easily pick up a slapper in my local... But anyway, the sites we found were very un-awesome. Full of young, hot, foreign girls who for some reason decide that the only way they can make money is by having sex with fat old men. Loads of reviews, a lot of bad ones.

The clients genuinely think that when they pay for the woman, she is an object that has to please them and that's all it comes down to. Most were like "she was giving me head and she really didn't seem enthusiastic, what a dumb bitch" or "she wasn't interested in me at all after she got the money". Wow, what a surprise; you're paying for sex presumably because nobody is attracted to you, and the person you pay to sexually violate isn't pleased by your exploitation of them. I mean, they charge such high prices presumably because of what a horrible and difficult job it is. Don't expect them to enjoy it, or even pretend to enjoy it. UGH. UN-AWESOME.

Indeed its not cool. Unfortunatly though, the jobs that never run out, are the ones involving sex. Whether its through porn, or prositution, there's always someone out there whos willing to pay for it. It's not exactly something you need qualifications for either, so I guess if you are in that much need for money, its a "good" option. I have a hatred though of the whole sex trade thing though in pretty much every manner.

Kinda ironic really considering I've had 3 offers to be in porn films. Figure that one out. :P

Oh, and I'm sick to death of people making rape jokes, or referring to rape when something goes wrong. It really really urks me. :evil:

No no, it's fine. I never have been raped. I've been sexually assaulted a couple of times, but I don't want to make a deal out of it or anything, as it's not that "bad." But obviously, it's just made me terrified of the whole "what if?" concept you know. I think the worst actually was a teacher at my old school, put on a film which had "a not very nice" beginning. To say it wasn't very nice was a huge understatement. So, I guess I just don't see why its funny.

It was quite awhile ago now though, so I'm fine. :D

If you go around telling people you don't even know about those offers, it looks like you're promiscuous. Sexualising yourself deliberately, for no apparent reason, objectifies you. I'm not trying to belittle the fact that you were assaulted, I'm just saying that you need to take care not to be overly suggestive; there's a fine line between "asking for it" and "gagging for it".

I think that women being exploited in porn is different. A vast majority of people do watch porn, understandably. From my standpoint, the women surely have aspirations of fame and wealth. I'm sure it doesn't work out for most of them, but being a porn "star" seems to be a career move to a lot of them. It's far more drastic than prostitution as a way to make money, because there is a permanent reminder of the "work" you do. Why not just prostitute your body out if you're really in need of money? You're going to get fucked either way, there's just footage of it if you do porn. Sure it's disgusting shallow tripe most of the time, but we're humans and have needs. If those needs can be satisfied without demeaning another person's rights, porn has fulfilled its purpose. If you think about it, someone masturbating is far better than them raping women (or men!) and purchasing sex.

My posts are annoyingly long, I blame our education system making me write nine page essays full of elaborate language and pretentious adjectives. I know you are going to respond with something cutesy which makes me look like a big bad antagonist (because everyone is so nice on these boards, including you) but when people say things that I think are stupid; I will express that I think that they're stupid, and state the reasons why. It's just how I roll, not personal vendettas or anything. Everyone is free to pick indiscrepancies in the integrity of my arguments. The internets are srs bisness, I have no time for tomfoolery or asshattery of any description.
