You conveniently excluded my post in its content and thus removed it from which the context. Then fixated on the typo of using "we" instead of "them". The context had nothing to do with my role in these women's lives but rather the topic around STDs.
If it was relevant to the thread I would have made it so when you pointed out my misuse of a pronouns.
Ugh okay here we go.
Your misuse of pronouns? It was a whole paragraph.
There is only one way to read, "We get a lot of married and older guys calling ..." and "We get requests for sex without condoms...." right after your comments about the virtues of "sex workers." So YOU provided the context.
Your job is either relevant to the topic or not, and no amount of semantics gymnastics is going to change that.
Nothing vague about a family man paying the bills and rent of working girls though.
Again out of context.
A friend of friend of mine was getting desperate.. facing eviction ( I don't know her well enough to give her a place to stay). She relied on Craigslist and BP but recent pressure on those sites make it difficult for her to connect with her clients. It made it difficult for her to remain an independent. Coupled together with some stings in the area further pushed things.
I caught her taking a ride from a well known pimp to "talk business".... if you know how they operate this is the first step to gain leverage on her.. then its game over. I paid her rent for the next month (its not much) all I asked was her promise that she put off that decision for another month; focus on finding other options (including other regular jobs to substitute for the lost income).
What's wrong with that? Its not like I support them financially .... I simply bought her another month. Any more than that, I could start seeing trouble from the pimps/scum who have gang members in their pocket. You don't realize how much I despise pimps! I'll go through a lot if it keeps one girl out of their reach... I did so with my wallet to back it up.
All my posts stand on their own as to my stance on this topic.

You already know the back story. I dated seriously for two years one of them and that's my role... no more no less... they are extended friendships. Stop twisting it.
The way I took that "we" was in a mental image of this person hanging out with a group of talking women who are relating stories of the profession, and he's identifying as a part of a social group...but then, I'm also friends with a few sex workers, so I hear the stories, too. Anyhow though? What usayit does with his life isn't anything of my business and he has never come off to me like the kind of person who would be a jerk to women. If he's a pimp, he's the kindest and most caring pimp on the block. I think he's probably just someone who moves in different social groups than many, though. Connection to kink, poly, swinger, or alt-lifestyle groups, will put you in social contact with such folks. There is overlap. It's too easy to assume things when you've never had contact with such folks. I have. They're just people. People who make various different choices, many of which I might not do myself, but whatever. People.
Regarding the topic and the OP. I think it's a little uncool to be speculating on the questions like "what's wrong with him?" or "how does he get sex?" upon finding out he's never had a relationship. Why not just ask him? If he was willing to open up about not having had a relationship, maybe he'd be willing to talk about his sexual history. And if he's not, then none of it is any of your business and you can respect that or leave him alone. The way this was presented, looks like OP is looking for probable cause for negative judgment. What's your connection to this person, anyhow?

Hey, like I said, get on with your bad self, as long as it doesn't enter the world of your wife and kids. No need to defend, it's all good.
