Not wanting to hijack and go off on a "RB" tangent, i would like to thank Sharon for her post on "Respect"...and thus:

Not too long ago, a dear regular of mine asked me if i was not concerned of being viewed as a "pariah or rebel".

Yesterday, after an all-encompassing session of erotic play, another dear regular, burst into laughter and claimed that i am a " true maverick".
It would take quite a stretch of imagination to turn any of these words into compliments of any sort.

Yet. I accepted them as such.

In both cases, a hearty conversation took place, with much laughter .

It got me to thinking....

How small and jaded have we become if nothing deeper nor broader nor bigger exists than the comments we post on this forum or any other forum?

Does one define oneself by the few that  go ahead to support or criticise one, forgetting that there are so so many more who NEVER post?

Are we also so unaware that this forum is viewed by quite a few international guests and not just locals? Is our bubble that small??

Does Having a "me" and not conforming to whatever the "flavour" of the month may be, make one any less worthy?

Respect.
Why such a funny and inconceivable concept here?
I always wonder what ......" i rammed her piehole till she dripped and screamed for more" .....is all about.
Yes.
Sounds "fucking" erotic and men may get a tingle in the nether region....but how necessary is it?
Maybe share those comments in your pm's.
I am sure many have rammed their girlfriends and wives sexy pieholes, but have not shared it openly for fear of tarnishing the image of her saintliness (wink).
...why do we choose to live in glass houses?
Every advertiser likes to be thought of as a lady and worthy of your respect and compliments. Costs one nothing to do so.

No matter the cynics, no matter the intellectuals and the critics i find the generalisation befuddling that many are of the opinion that wg/mg..'s are heartless , without feeling, harbour devious agendas and intentionally are out to get one.
Why is our character defined by the "work" we participate in,considering we form  part of the same society we all live in?
One cannot say a fellow accountant, secretary, fellow pier or family member have not disappointed one by dishonouring a debt or acting in an "asshole" manner.
Thus....putting things into context....there are questionable personalities in all walks of life.

Being an ordinary person, not driven by ego, but caring to attain excellence are the best sort i have had the pleasure of meeting through my life....and has continued in this environment.
We do care to associate ourselves with the best possible.
And i tell you what.....there are many many "bests" here.

But one should not forget.....there is more to life than being defined by ones workspace.

My good lady Bridgitte


A thought-provoking post indeed.

Yes, very sadly, we humans, very often, display such inhumanity toward one another. Way too easily, we judge others by our own standards and are frequently oblivious to the fact that those standards may be flawed and that our judgement is not necessarily appropriate.

Like you, I also don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach, regarding which standards to adopt whilst going about the business of the living of our lives. The soul principle I apply, is respect for the rights of others to live their lives as they see fit, provided that, in so doing, the right of others to do the same, is not encroached upon. Yes, I agree, "there are many bests out there" and they're probably all different.

Is Russian Bridgitte a “pariah”, a “rebel” or a “true maverick”? In my opinion, probably, but not in any negative sense. I certainly don’t believe that’s she’s a social outcast or a warmonger. Rather, she’s an independent thinker who lives life according to her own rules, whilst always ensuring that she respects her fellow human and takes care never to offend. She is a unique and rare breed. Therefore, I disagree with the statement “It would take quite a stretch of imagination to turn any of these words into compliments of any sort.”

Also, you’ve never displayed any egoism of any description. Nevertheless, quite often, self-confidence and “caring to attain excellence” are misconstrued to constitute egotistical behaviour.

Regarding “wg/mg’s being heartless and without feeling…”, well, Arizona and Veronica Franco have just displayed the complete opposite with their efforts to collect Easter eggs for some children’s homes.

Yes, “there is more to life than being defined by our workspace”, or anything else, for that matter.

Aaah Ms B always able to bring to light topics of interest and share your view on it... In a typically Maverick style :-)

Unfortunately too many amongst us have forgotten what it is to be human and our humanity.
I believe the ladies - and gents- here all deserve respect until proven otherwise. Yes yes I said they deserve our respect - even though it is a business transaction
Does one disrespect other people they engage in business transactions with?? Why with a lady providing this service should it be otherwise?

Respect given shall hopefully be returned.

Now Maverick remember you can be my wing woman anytime :-)

But one should not forget.....there is more to life than being defined by ones workspace.

I agree with this statement 100%. This is the very reason I very often bullshit and delegate my way out of actually doing any work and most of the time I tell the secretary I have to go to the dc but I rather go home early to chill out infront of the TV. I worked hard enough already so slacking is a good thing. I rather enjoy life instead of being a constant corporate slave.

@Mujahid001:
heheeh as always you present us with a brilliant alternative view!

My dear dear gentlemen, who understand the simple principle of respect for ones fellow man.
Blessed be your considerate hearts.

And now further as to my post

...say u met a lady unawares of her "employ"....u socialise over a period of time...get to appreciate her company for the person she is....only to find out later she is in the adult service industry.
There is no intimate relationship between the two of you, but only friendship.

All of a sudden she has a label...do u view her differently?
At no point in time had she given u reason for concern nor an inkling of a feeling of discomfort.
What do u do?

Stay friends
Run for the hills
Start imagining how she could become a friend with benefits.....Freebie sex. (....siiiggghhhh).

Respect was never part of the equation before her being labelled...it was a given.

Would it be different if this industry was legalised? Would it give more credibility to the adult service providers thus earning recognition and respect?

Hell no.

The Adult service industry is viewed as the lowest form of employ to be shamed and scorned.

Why? Simple....sadly It is associated with desperation, drugs, cheating, lieing, manipulation.......
Anything that is not legalised has no recourse and thus chancers and opportunists will abuse and use the loopholes to the detriment of others.

A change in mindset has to take place.....the first change has to be from the service provider themself.
A level of pride and recognition of oneself And the service offered needs to be understood and applied.
As has been said many many times.....this space is not for the fainthearted.
Many are fooled in believing this is the easy way out to ones financial woes.

Ego. .....The downfall of many a good person.  Keep your head high and feet firmly planted on Mother Earth.

But, even with a change of mindset...society will still scorn those in this workspace and men will still question the credibility of said lady.

There is no use beating ones head against the wall....it is what it is.
Remember u define yourself.... and how others see u is how u allow them to see u.
It is no more different than your everyday life.

None of us are perfect.....and that includes the gentlemen.

Wink.
