It depends, if they're just your Bootycall, of course you only call them for sex. That's what a Bootycall is lol. But if she is a FWB that means she's also your friend so you guys hang out like normal but still occasionally sleep together.

The guys who get laid the most aren't sleeping with 5-6 random women ever week. They build rosters over years so they'll never be without sex even if they're not in relationships. That's something my older brother taught me when I was 16 and its as true today as it was 9 years ago.
Everyone cant do this though, hence the thread.

Or they just like fantasizing out loud.

What I cant get over is this naive notion that just because you decide not to see a prostitute, that you arent paying for sex/companionship. The vast majority of courtships (not even relationships - just courtships) involve men wooing women with gifts, dinners, and spa treatments. Many women in mainstream society are going to be just as slutty as prostitutes - and most men will never even know about it. And some of these men dont even get a relationship in return, much less sex. Yet this is rationalized as somehow more "noble" or something...lol..ok, I guess. And the courtship part is not even something to fuss or whine about, its just the way the game goes. But it just doesnt make sense, to me, for men to act like they made out like a bandit, or like they've taken some sort of high road, when in reality, they are paying for it too.

Beer and prostitutes are "two peas in a pod" for me. They wouldn't exist. I wouldn't pay for either.

There is one other difference many places. Legality. Nobody is going to end up in the grey bar hotel for wooing a woman with drinks or gifts. However, hiring that Escort might be another story. (Ask Elliott Spitzer, who had to resign as NY Governor after getting caught and charged with a man act down in DC).

The vast majority of courtships involve men wooing with spa treatments? Where do you get your data from.

I've known many successful relationships where the couple were both poor when they met...there was no wooing with spa treatments, and the couple mostly went halfsies.

Those who call it the oldest profession are nuts- It's a sad state of affairs..a chain of unfortunate events that lead to a pitiful life....It's not a profession- there is no such thing as a sex worker...just a screwed up person who has hit the bottom - even upscale escorts are victims- Using prostitutes is a disgrace- They are somebodies daughter- they were a mother's little girl...a father's delight- and once they fall into this trap it is tragic...those taking advantage of them are jerks.

I have often wondered what happens to prostitutes when they age? Do they make it out of that hole? What is their longevity? A friend of mine who worked in ER told me of a situation where an ex-prostitute came in there in bad shape (substance issues) and didn't make it.

Most prostitutes are nothing but victims of their own choices. Some women are forced into sex trafficking but if you are going to sit up here and say that most streetwalkers in this country are innocent victims forced into this lifestyle then it's hard to take you seriously. I've known women who've been dealt a bad hand in life and never turned to prostitution or porn. Again this isn't to say that prostitutes should be abused and mistreated but don't make them out like poor damsels who have no control over their lives.
