what is Courtesan or so, means the art that was performing in 100 years ago when paid sex was even near the churches and the whores had their own houses, and were very posh in the society, treated with the same respect as today the politician. I recommend reading The history of prostitution. Those days you can also has rescpect and well paid clients but I doubt you would be in the same rescpect as politicians and so stars. It has been puted down due to hiv, right before the swinger area ended. Then it become obvious that because of the hiv is better to have one partner. Courtesan was performing classy art, acting, singing, then fucking the men. They were very rich and the politicians loved to be showing with them in newspapers. It was very diffrent than now. It was very normal and common but they have the social like a stars, good ones of course. You had also normal hookers, but sex was often puted together with art and acting.
Today not so much possible. If you shag a politian it might be a scandla for him, in the time of courtesan it was a normal thing. Whe the hiv came out, people got crazy and rushed into one partner and put down the rest who shag also strangers. Propably in few years the hiv will be healed completly, or to my knowledge there will be soon vacination for it so it will start all over again, so couting over 10-15 years when the whore will be again apriciated in sociaty like before. Some, but slowly are now promoted by the stars clothing fashion. Have you heared over the French prostitute that makes also her own clothing line? And others that are on the list of the most expensive prossies on the planet? There you go...
