Although I'm coming to this thread late, I really learned a lot reading through all the opinions and posts. I was recently in a similar situation as the woman dating the man who had slept with a prostitute. I think it probably does depend on the people and the situation. That said, you have to look at everything else that you're learning about the person (or, at least, what they're willing to share), and the prostitute thing might be the tip of the iceberg. Use your best judgment and follow your gut. In my situation, the prostitute thing was just one more event in a string of past encounters (some not-so-distant) that reflected poor judgment on his part. It was a big disappointment and I'm trying to move on now ...

Hoes & Prostitutes are people too, why should you not date someone who slept with one? I mean as long as they don't have any contagious diseases, STD's, AID's, HIV's or whatever. What a silly question.

Sorry to hear that starlit. The couple in question actually seem to be doing really well. Expecting baby number 2.
Funny when old threads emerge. Makes for an interesting read!
This is exactly what I consider a solid "Don't ask don't tell" questions. I understand it is a possibility, but I don't want to know anything exact. Not unlike what I think men feel about the true number of sex partners his girlfriend had before him.

I'm with you on this one, too. No need for any such confessions.

Thanks, Hobokenkitchen (: I'm glad things worked out for your friend.
Your thread helps put my recent situation in a better perspective, actually. Hope bringing the thread back will help other readers, too ...
No, I don't think I would. I find the idea extremely unappealing, although it might be more feasible if it was a one-off thing, it wasn't a pathetic scenario were his friends drove him to do it blablabla, and the prostitute's circumstances weren't bad (yes, I do care about those things)... But even in those cases, I'd have a very, very hard time picturing him as a man for me.
