		<description>I&#039;d like more information about this job. I am not experienced, but i am very interested in this type of work. I am curious and in desperate need of money. I am currently a full time student and work part time on campus. A woman I met in one of my classes last semester told me that she was, at one time, a dominatrix. I took her information to contact her, but she gave me the run around. I understand there is training available. I would like to know how to find a personal trainer, and where I would train; as well as where I can find work. Please contact me at Janedough2lm@hotmail.com ASAP.
Thank you

		<description>Though we can say that there ediot if they pay over 200 dollars for a NYU dominatrix, lets also understand the fact that they work for living like we do. It&#039;s simple as if you payed for the food that you eat or the service that you are able to use.

		<description>With regard to the most recent comment, I do not feel it is accurate to say that &quot;In regard to prostitution...most women have a dislike for sex with completely random people because of the entirely natural (sometimes subconscious) fear that they might get pregnant&quot;. I think I am speaking for most women when I say that for women, sex is more about establishing an emotional connection rather than a physical one. Pregnancy is just a small concern, especially in a time where we are inundated with information about contraception and safe sex. Sex is NEVER just about making babies, or providing pleasure for the partner and self. I would never think of having sexual intercourse with some random person, just for the fun of it, because it would be like violating myself and toying with my emotions. Moreover, I do not believe in giving myself to a man who I don&#039;t know and who won&#039;t appreciate me once it&#039;s over. This is the part of prostitution that irks most women. We just cannot imagine &quot;doing it&quot; with someone for money. Which is why many of us feel that prostitutes are only in the profession because there is no where else to go. Hence the desperation that sticks to the job. Hence the place in the lowest pedestal of the societal hierarchy.  

You are completely missing the point when you say that it is possible to view the job neutrally because unlike other jobs, the amount of emotional strain involved and the personal space being violated in this one is very high. And they get treated like shit by the society because of their line of profession. How can you say that it is possible for prostitutes to view prostitution &quot;neutrally&quot; if the respect you show them varies from all the other &quot;neutral&quot; jobs? And I don&#039;t think they get into the business for fun. Or in the rare case that there are some who do, I am quite sure the fun wears off after a while anyway. In this profession, the only fun is the one the client is having. All that the prostitutes can do is to dress and act the way the client wants to be pleased, even if they have no wish to do so. And on top of all this, they have to put up with the gross amount of hypocrisy thrown at them by the society. The very same people who patronize brothels look down on prostitutes outside. That&#039;s just how superficial the society is, where the moral burden attached to such private spheres is intense, and we are all just looking to push it away from us. 

Sex is a natural part of a comfortable relationship, but its immoral for you to seek it. But those who seek it can get away with it, while those who provide it get insulted. We have no right to criticize those in the sexual professions to stop placing each other in a hierarchy, because we have put them there. We have decided to put ourselves into a patriarchal hierarchy which rates women. And no one wants to be on the lowest step below everyone else, hence the distinction between those who have sex for money and those who provide non-penetrative sexual favours. We cannot ask of them to view they profession neutrally, unless we can view them to be neutral, equal members of the society.</description>

		<description>In regard to prostitution, I think that most women have a dislike for sex with completely random people because of the entirely natural (sometimes subconscious) fear that they might get pregnant with the baby of someone they don’t want to have a long term relationship with. But wouldn’t it at least theoretically be possible for a woman to emotionally know that she was protected from pregnancy by contraceptives and think of prostitution as a neutral job which she might enjoy sometimes and just consider a normal job at other times? 

Just because she isn’t attracted to every client doesn’t necessarily mean that she has to hate the job. I mean, the interview above gave an example of a case where the dominatrix did a session with an older man which she didn’t enjoy.  Dominatrixs don’t love all of their sessions and prostitutes at least theoretically don’t have to hate all of theirs. I feel like it is at least theoretically possible for both to view their job neutrally.</description>

		<description>To me the hierarchy comes from the power role. If i have sex with a man for money i am allowing myself to be penetrated, therefore i am allowing myself to be violated. someone is entering me who i don&#039;t want, whereas in the role of domme, I am in control. the man has to come to my dungeon and obey my rules. and they do so by choice. 

i can&#039;t generalize but i&#039;ve never heard of someone becoming a prostitute because it was intriguing. it seems people become prostitutes out of desperation, whereas the choice to become a domme, at least for me, is based more on the desire to learn a science, to feel a sense of power in a healthy setting, and to explore the human psyche. 

i don&#039;t judge prostitution, but i would never, no matter how broke i was, let a man who i wasn&#039;t in to penetrate me.</description>
