Study Suggests Few Johns Turn Violent

I was reading an article that suggests that very few men who buy sex are violent towards prostitutes. And although I tend to agree with that study, I will say that prostitutes are an easier target for violence, especially street prostitutes.

1000 online anonymous questionnaires were conducted for this controversial study. According to the study, 1.9 percent reported having hit pushed or physically attacked a prostitute, 1 percent reported having raped or sexually assaulted a sex worker and 1.7 percent reported having stolen from a sex worker.

I actually don’t trust these anonymous “online” studies because it’s easy for men to lie about that sort of thing, and most offenders will lie unless they’ve been jailed for it. What they need to do is conduct a study of jailed sex offenders and see what percentages of their crimes were against prostitutes. And they also need to survey prostitutes who either reported an abuse or have been hospitalized from it.

These online questionnaires don’t really prove shit.

(Example)

I took an online questionnaire for prostitutes and one of the questions asked if I’m addicted to drugs. I automatically said NO although I do smoke Marijuana often. Just looking at that question made me feel uncomfortable and I felt I had to lie.

I rarely trust these surveys that I read because most are flawed or don’t give accurate data, just like every other survey or statistic that I read. I’m very inquisitive and I question everything, especially when it comes to this industry because escorting is a business of 90% deception.

Think about it. We spend all day lying to each other, whether it’s using a fake name, age, wearing wigs to hide what we really look like, or having photoshopped photos to make our bodies look unnatural.

It’s all deception!
