do you find this word offensive? i do
Jan10:
Not at all it is just a word. What you choose to call yourself is all that matters at the end of the day. People don't seem to think there is a  difference between sex workers we are all the same receiving payment for sexual services as far as they are concerned, therefore we are all prostitutes.
amy:
Well we are all prostitutes, just as other sex workers are lapdancers, webcammers or porn models or whatever - it's the correct English word for people who exchange sex for money and is no more an offensive term than plumber or trapeze artist.

It does mystify me when people who are perfectly happy to be prostitutes/engage in prostitution get sniffy about the semantics. I'm very happy to be a prostitute - it's been a very rewarding job for me, and since there's nothing wrong with what I do I'd like to think that filters out to those around me and shows there's nothing wrong with being a prostitute :).

Why be offended by the truth?  I take money for sexual favours therefore I am a prostitute.

Now call me "Hun" "Dear" or "Sweetie" and I WILL be offended.

Oh come on babes, I mean really hun, I don't see what's wrong with that at all sweetie!
Sorry, I can't stand it either, or "Darling" for that matter. 
As for prostitute, it's what we are.
