That reminds me of those stories from Japan where you can rent somebody to be your friend for an afternoon.

I have no experience or first hand knowledge of this but I saw a video with prostitutes being interviewed years ago. They said a depressingly large amount of people hired them just to talk and converse. No sex. Just talking like a good friend because the person hiring them didn’t have any. They just wanted someone to be their friend. It was really sad.

You generally don’t hire a prostitute unless you’ve hit a low point in life. That’s not to disparage prostitutes, I think it’s a noble and needed profession that’s demonized by society; but the kinds of people that are willing to skirt the law and take the risks in hiring one, are typically not having a good life.

Makes you wonder if the Japanese “rent-a-friend” service might actually be a good idea. Ok, need a different name but…

Or you’re in a red light district, I’ve seen many a man and woman become a giggling “I wanna buy the candy” person while window shopping … shit we peepressured my old boss into it 😂

That depends on the country because it is not illegal everywhere.

Yeah, completely legal in my country. Pimping is illegal though. Like ANY sort of middle man work for sex is illegal.

Your friend’s a prostitute, you take calls for her and schedule the customers? Illegal.
