Why do men go to prostitutes?

I know not all do but statistically one out of three does and I don't really get why? Why pay for it when you coud hook up or get a girlfriend? My friend is a social worker and she kinda became friends with one of her "clients" who used to be a prostitute. She said that a lot of men paid tons of money extra if she pretented to be their girlfriend. Like calling him honey/darling, ask how his day was, say I love or sleep next to her for a few hours. She said of course some were there Because they wanted to do stuff their wives didn't want to or other reasons but those faking girlfriend requests were the most common. I don't get it, why pay someone to fake it, when you can have the real thing at home?

  • It os OK for you to ask why men pay for sex. but your stupid assumption" why pay someone to fake it, when you can have the real thing at home?" really makes you look ignorant. that shows how completely out of touch you are. just ask the question without making stupid assumptions

  • Perversion

  • when was the last time you struggled and went without getting laid for say weeks or months?

    do you have ta lot of testosterone ? ( the hormone that makes you want to have sex).

    you probably live in a bubble you think life is as easy for everyone as it is for you

    what if you are not good looking or articulate enough, to treat women or talk? what if you rather spend your time on anything else, if you want something and there is a convenient way of getting it why not use it.

  • Imagine if the opposite sex never approached you, and you always had to make the first move, and most of the time you got rejected, and you had to at least offer to pay for dates. That's what most men go through!

    Most guys probably would prefer a fairly decent-looking girlfriend with a fairly decent personality to a prostitute.

    In the case of a one-night stand, a guy could easily spend more on drinks or whatever for her (with no guarantee of sex) than a prostitute would cost.

    Also: 1. The idea of having sex with many different women is a turn-on for many men, maybe because as often said, guys are more visual than girls. 2. Going to a prostitute is more honest really than hitting on a potential hook-up. 3. Few women seem to be interested in casual sex. 4. If you're old, you're not going to get a hot young woman, unless she's a gold-digger or a prostitute. 5. Some guys go to prostitutes, because they have uncommon desires, e.g. fetishes.

  • Girls don't give average guys a chance

  • guys go because girls will do the stuff they want without the guy having to put in weeks/months of time & money. some guys flat out don't have time to deal with an actual realationship or the drama they bring.

    can you guarantee that I can have it at home? can you guarantee a hook up?

    whats the difference if I have to buy a girl drinks food and entertain her vs just giving a girl cash for sex...then she can use the money for what she actually needs.

    • Exactly. There's hardly any difference.

  • A few reasons:

    - It's just sex and sex only. No strings attached, so no need to worry about the prostitute becoming attached.

    - Prostitutes are more than happy to fulfill a guy's wishes (whatever it is) seeing as they are being paid for their services.

    - Getting a girlfriend/hook up is not easy for all men so if they can't get a girlfriend or a hook up they can't get sex.

    - Guys who do have girlfriends may find that they want sex frequently which may result in their girlfriends not being able to keep up with them and disappointing them.

    - Many guys like variety so even if they do have a girlfriend or are hooking up with someone they may want to try new things with other women.

  • It is easy, no strings attached and they will provide services that some women refuse to.

  • They are desperate for sex, and have the money.

  • "Why pay for it when you could hook up or get a girlfriend"?

    Its not always that easy. At least not for all us guys.

    Plus its the oldest profession in the world.

  • Because they are easy and none judgmental. You ask them to do pretty much anything that doesn't involve her risking getting hurt and she will comply. Something like Anal sex that some would consider off limit. The prostitute would charge you a sum of money and let's go. Even for the girlfriend thing, your wife might not have the looks a GREEK Goddess anymore the prostitute on the other hand her JOB depends on how great she looks (Looks = MONEY). If you have the money it's easy to go somewhere public and project the image that the girl (10/10 = Greek Goddess) besides you is you Girlfriend and when people approach and talk to you about how you got her, well you can tell them pretty much anything an they will believe you, because you have the girlfriend to prove it. If they don't well...you can go to her, kiss her and grab a butt cheek. Very persuasive when you think that most girls normally would beat the living crap out of you for even thinking about pulling something like that in front of them. Once your day is over. You can sex her. In the morning, It's like you two never met. No drama, no I want a more serious relationship, where is this going, I want more...none of it. It's like all of the benefices without the inconveniences for a price.

    I've paid for the services of one, only for sex though not the GFE/ girlfriend experience (major stacks of money needed). I'd do it again any day. Once you've shaken the fear of contacting a "prostitute" you're in for a lot of FUN.

    Hookups and a girlfriend Are very costly in Time, also these girls who are in it for a relationship. Sometimes things get complicated. Not with the prostitute, because when you've agreed on something with her, that's exactly what you get.

    It's a world you might not understand...you've never seen it or experienced it.

    The prostitutes are still human, you treat them like equals they might even give you discounts for being a "REGULAR". Also If you the client are good looking, you also get discounts with some.

    • but I saw her and pictures of her friends and she even says herself most prostitutes are not above average looking and they still charge high prices. There may be others but she wasn't seen in public with clients just in private. I don't really get what you mean, very few girlfriends would complain about being kissed

    • A compliment the prostitute gave me, Genuine or not was "I'm feeling ticklish, get on the bed." I was amazed how much she could wind, shake and roll (she would cease control) in a session. If she was faking all that, God I loved her faking, it felt great...

    • There are different levels of prostitutes you know. Those who aren't very good looking are low class (they charge decent money). The high class ones are dead gorgeous ( You pay for those looks). Also the kissing isn't much of what It's about when hiring a prostitute for GFE, It's all about power and the commodities you can buy with it. What more intimidating scene when you're at a business meeting with other workers and they brought their wifes (average look) and the bachelor has a MODEL.

    • Show All
  • Why do prostitutes offer services to men?

    • and no I would never go to a prostitute

    • cuz men will go to them and it's a way of making money. Male prostitutes have a much harder time

    • What a sad life choice that is. From both sides

  • Because they CAN'T have the real thing at home.

    There are lots of guys who can't get girlfriends, but want girlfriends.

    Prostitutes who offer the GFE (girlfriend experience) are one way those guys can get what they want.
