Yes, i did like it, although there are no sex workers in there, right? (I still didn't watch the most recent season.)Nice thread Alice! Did you like Orange is the new black?

Good pointI don’t think so. They have the used lingerie business though.
Brazilian version of "secret diary of a call girl" ?Just watched on the Japanese nextflix:
Confessions of a Brazilian call girl
Was quite good. Made the life look a bit rough (I suppose its rougher in some places than others) but in the end she was a strong, independent woman and despite sliding off a bit, she got back on track and both reached goals and created new opportunities for herself.
Haven't seen it yet, but Molly's Game was just released.
Come to think of it, why needing comfort in books or movies about the positive aspects of a freely chosen (I assume) and well-paying (I know) job?
I could understand that need in a guy who, say, has to pick up trash or clean corpses every day to feed his kids, and didnt have any better opportunity to do so. But here...
Yes, maybe. But the less you need reinsurances and pats in the back in this cruel cruel world, the stronger you are.I don't think it's a matter of 'needing comfort' (although correct me if I'm wrong). They just want media that they identify with AND is somewhat positive. I mean, I'm in the computer field and I LOVE Office Space and the IT Crowd, etc. If every show out there that referred to computer field jobs was all still 'Revenge of the Nerds' I'd probably be a little frustrated too, despite loving my career.
Its not exactly fun to see your carreer being mocked on tv and any character you relate to getting murdered.I don't think it's a matter of 'needing comfort' (although correct me if I'm wrong).

my chosen career is near if not at the top of Generally Despised Professionals
I want to do that with youNot exactly about prostitution only but I still find it interesting somehow... if you have Netflix, give 'the client list' a try.
Me too, dentists are awesome.I love my dentist.
are you a wheel clamper ?Not trying to win an argument, but pretty sure my chosen career is near if not at the top of Generally Despised Professionals...hmm, apparently only dentists are more hated. Strange; I love my dentist.
Lawyer? Lawyer was my plan B.Not trying to win an argument, but pretty sure my chosen career is near if not at the top of Generally Despised Professionals...hmm, apparently only dentists are more hated. Strange; I love my dentist.
Definitely. But those things bring a lot of problems. It should be anonymously since i want to have my own family and live a low profile life.Interesting Thread Alice and good feedback as well.... I think the reason there are not more positive portrayals of SW in media is because of the Religious aspect of society in general.. So as previously mentioned.. shows there is an opportunity for you "badass" to change the opinion by your own memoires or stories... of course that's going to be a big time investment, but if you journal (Blog or Vlog) everyday about what you did or your client did, then people want to know that. I think TV and Movies have made most people voyeuristic in general terms, otherwise, why these reality shows continue... Actually a reality show about Escorts would be really interesting and entertaining... I guess the main hurdle would be filming in a locations where P4P is legal... Netflix seems to be producing loads of content... I'm not in the industry, but..... I smell a market and potential which means $$$$ can be made. Look how 50 Shades opened the mainstream door on a otherwise sub-culture of S & M.... and I believe I read women were buying the book much more than men... Sooo..... ALICE.... BadAss in Wonderland... certainly could be quite a nice book, series, movie, etc..... The only question left is who to play you ? Nicole Kidman ? Margot Robbie ? Self ?
OK.... I know what I've typed has not added one constructive bit to this thread for which I accept flames and apologize for .... Don't underestimate yourself or your chosen profession at this stage in your life... Whatever you want to do, I'm sure there is a way to achieve it... just finding the proper people to help with the project... It doesn't have to be a "Hollywood" production and writing doesn't cost you anything but time..well and ink if you go old school...
I'm sure other's would agree that they would read, watch.. otherwise support that endeavor.....
