Euphemism

Post by Gaybutton »

I stumbled across a new euphemism, new to me anyway, for prostitution- "compensated dating"

I loved that. And I'll bet George Carlin would have loved it too:

Why not. The stigma attached to the old words for the oldest profession make new words a good idea.
Smug men look down on sex workers and belittle them. They are service professions and I for one am thrilled
to have known and utilized their services. I don't feel superior, except to the moralists and hypocrites.
