Why men use prostitutes

by Amanda on January 16, 2010

in Rants

The answer (that is) according to Julie Bindel. Before I start can I just say that I don’t like the word “use” in that context. Visit is much better, but of course ‘visit’ doesn’t have the nasty connotations that ‘use’ does, so we won’t see Julie using it anytime soon.

Julie wrote another column for the Guardian yesterday. The title of which is exactly the same as the title of this blog. Unfortunately, I missed the deadline for comments, so I shall hold forth at you lot instead. :)

The subject of Julie’s latest article is a report on why men visit prostitutes. Although it has been undertaken by a group which includes members who believe that the only safe choice for women is lesbianism, I’m sure it isn’t at all biased (Where’s that SarcMark when I need it?).

Have you seen this?

The SarcMark:

I can see why they’ve done it of course. Not because everyone needs a character to denote sarcasm in the written word, but because they want to charge everyone $1.99 to get hold of the flippin’ thing.

I think it looks like a Mr Man has tumbled over. :D Lazy

Minor Irritation du Jour

by Amanda January 13, 2010

According to a poster on the Punternet forum, it is ‘not possible’ to have a relationship with an escort because there will be ‘an eliment (sic)* of deep mistrust’.
The evidence for this is a case in Wales where a man is accused of murdering his wife after they rowed over his use of casual sex [...]

If only I were a bear :(

by Amanda January 6, 2010

If I were a bear,
And a big bear too,
I shouldn’t much care
If it froze or snew;
I shouldn’t much mind
If it snowed or friz–
I’d be all fur-lined
With a coat like his!
For I’d have fur boots and a brown fur wrap,
And brown fur knickers and a big fur cap.
I’d have a fur muffle-ruff to cover my jaws.
And [...]

And there it was… Gone!

by Amanda January 2, 2010

I’ve taken down one of my posts. I’ve never done it before, but I don’t have some grand view about doing it, so it’s gone.
The post in question is the one about the Alexa DiCarlo debacle.
I wasn’t particularly worried about absolute details. It wasn’t as if I was preparing a legal document. I wasn’t prepared [...]

Yes I know…

by Amanda January 2, 2010

I’ve been a very naughty floozy. I have a stack of email to catch up with and my phone answering skills haven’t been up to much either.
Sorry.
Christmas is partly to blame, as is this horrible weather. I’ve been toying with the idea of hibernation.
Anyway, I am now going to give myself a metaphorical [...]
