Supposed Channel 4 Documentary..
« on: 08 November 2012, 12:16:49 am »
Have any of you ladies been contacted by the Supposed reporter from Channel 4 looking to get an insight to the life of a webcamer and escort - a follow up on an apparent previous documentary about phone sex and the girls that do it.

Wanting to know of all the stories and meet with girls in the job?

I passed as for one it's most likely a hoax and two i like to keep private.

just interested to know is all

There WAS a programme re Phone Chat Operators but to be honest it was boring as fk.

You did the right thing, the previous programme did absolutely nothing for the girls and made them look fake.

Anyone could have seen that and start hoax calling girls.
Beauty is nothing to do with having a pretty face.
It is about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart,
And most importantly a beautiful soul.

Well since I get roughly five of these emails a week, I couldn't possibly say.

If it was genuine, it should have come from a proper email address (rather than a free, knocked-together-ten-minutes-ago Hotmail or Gmail one) but either way they're easily enough deleted. I do usually reply, admittedly, but I've long since given up trying to explain why I don't want to appear on TV and what the potential consequences would be. The categories usually fall into: Prossies who see disabled punters (they just comb the TLC site and carpetbomb everyone on it), students (I don't get them ;D) and ones that say they want to make a 'realistic' programme about the sex industry (but never sound the slightest bit interested in the reality).

It's simple enough, if you don't want to do it anyway just ignore it and they will go away (apart from the Firecracker Films lot which sent me an identical email two months later, so obviously weren't beating them off with a stick).

thing is this one did seem quite genuine with a proper non hotmail,gmail etc address and a telephone number..

still it's not for me.. there are already enough people that know what i do (two of my neighbours included in that) who like to pass their judgement.. i don't need anymore when im completely fine and happy with what i do for a living..

was just curious is all..

yea i get those copy and paste emails too lol

If your entire family knew about you escorting, and you didnt really give a shit if anyone knew you were an escort, what potential consequences do you think there would be from appearing on TV? Possible hate mail? Being evicted by your landlord?

I'd probably do it for the laugh but then again there is a lot of things you'd have to think about even if you didnt care off the top of your head if anyone knew xx

I will add I was once contacted on Facebook (on my real name one with everyone I've ever known on it!) by a woman from some media outlet who was apparently making a documentary on 'girls like me' who escort and webcam for a job! I dont know how the hell she found out  :-\

well i generally dont care, my family and friends know what i do..

i currently get alot of grief from my neighbours for one reason or another ( that they are just tossers) and that would just be yet another reason to give me grief haha..

i own my flat.. and they rent.. so i wouldnt have any issues that way..

Suppose by doing what i do, im controlling to some degree, the people i see and if someone locally would see what i do ( and there are some punters that make me think, no way in hell will i meet you) found my address, i'd feel my level of security would be somewhat compromised..

for a girl that puts herself out there.. i do like a degree of privacy hehe, i put myself out there for all to see and play with for the right price.. i like that i can have alittle control over who can get to me and who cant.

but i'm proud to be doing what i do as im very much independant and in control of my life being self employed,  **cue the Mcdonalds theme tune** I'm Lovin' It  ;D
