The women are said to become very predatory and into scamming men, as well as develop a lot of disdain or disrespect for their male customers or men in general. Men become marks, targets, toys, etc...
Thinking about how much lying and scamming she must do to men almost every day. It gets to the point, that the CHARACTER that she is playing at the hostess bar BECOMES her. The separation of her true personality and that of a hostess erodes to where it becomes intertwined and she herself may not know the difference.
The hostess mindset seeps deep into their thinking, so that it corrupts and makes it difficult for her to have normal relationships with men.
P4P can do a similar type of damage to the mind and a woman's ability to have normal relationships with men. However, the difference being that for many OTHER type of P4P women, she can be HONEST about money and sex. Actually the opposite of the spectrum, as in brutal honesty. There isn't an environment or subculture of lying and deception in many other P4P environments, to the extent that it is with hostesses.
In other forms of P4P, the women don't take their work home with them or always must play a fake role. Prostitution is more 9 to 5, clear sex for money, and then they do whatever.
However, keep in mind that being a hostess is arguably another form of P4P. There are a lot of hostesses with Sugar Daddies (Sponsors) and who do have sex with SOME of her customers. Often the bar owner or manager pushing or TELLING her WHO she is to have sex with. They can also suggest who she is to sleep with, in a sneaky type of manipulative way. The bar's control over a hostess can get very DEEP.
And it's sex with the customers and having sponsors on her PERSONAL time, that becomes part of the blurring process. The sponsors can require the same emotional energy as with any boyfriend or her customers BECOME her boyfriends. Unlike other P4P where sex and money exchange is more clearly cut and dry, sponsors are often treated like boyfriends, even if she DESPISES him. Making for all sorts of very convoluted thinking and double-mindedness.
She can have to continously "play" the hostess character not just at the bar, but OUTSIDE of it as well, with her many sponsors or meeting with customers before and after the bar opens and closes. It wears and breaks her down mentally. So at the 2 year mark is considered the point where she has truly become the "hostess". That is now who she is, inside and out.
Damn. I feel bad for them, then. It sounds like the people who run these businesses are worse than those with p4p. I never thought about it being more predatory than p 4p. I guess p4p is kind of an "honest exchange" by comparison, like you stated.
