What Are Some Challenges and Misconceptions Adult Entertainers Have to Deal with

Hey y'all,

I’m researching for an upcoming video on the challenges/misconceptions adult industry workers encounter when dating – (for my new matchmaking company “The Little Glass Slipper”) – and wanted to check in here with you gals and guys to see if I’m on the right track. Are there are things I might want to add to the list? Or any stories that you guys have that I can share? Basically, any input would be much appreciated! xoxo!

Challenges/Misconceptions:

-People thinking you’ll “put out” right away, or take them on as a client if things don’t work out
-People thinking that you want to be saved from your occupation
-Being seen as emotionally damaged (beyond the average person)
-Not being taken seriously/seen as relationship material/someone to bring home to family & friends
-People not getting that your work is just work. It’s fantasy work, and not reality
-STD Stigma
-Being seen as nymphomaniacs/always in the mood for sex
-Potential partner thinking that you won’t have energy for intimacy with them
-People thinking that your occupation is your only interest; (no hobbies, spirituality, goals, etc.)
-People thinking that you’re morally bankrupt
-People thinking that you can make them money
-People thinking that they’re the only one “willing” to date you
-Potential partners expecting that you’ll perform for them in the same way you perform at work – not getting the difference between sex/fantasy work and real intimacy
-Potential partners thinking that they’re not experienced enough to satisfy your intimacy needs
-Finding someone who’s secure with themselves and trusting
-People thinking that your workplace is a good place to meet you
-People thinking that you have daddy issues, drug problems, or lots of drama (beyond the average person)
-People assuming you’re up for a polyamorous relationship

Back when I was in school, the departments that wanted students for research gave us either cash, or a gift card to somewhere. Usually it was something that had a value of about $20, which isn’t much but it’s more than the “researchers” who seek out sex workers do. 🙄

Is there an actual market for this big enough to sustain a business? Asking for input is different than looking for a testimonial to share. There's probably more people that are open to the former. But I'm just a customer, and clearly the dancers on TUSCL can speak for themselves.

Ah fun.

Is there a separate section of the site offering to meet up with women in hotel rooms to help us shoot onlyfans photos/videos as well?

Hard to believe anyone will pay $3,000 for this "service." After checking out the website, it's also hard to believe Disney approved use of their content for an adult themed business.

I can't believe anyone would pay for such services. But there's a sucker born every minute.

Sex workers use ploys to separate us from our cash....good to know someone is running a scam on them!

So this service is basically acting as a pimp. Why advertise on a strip club website? Strippers never have sex with their customers. Believe me, I’ve tried.

I second the doctor’s comments. Disney is going to go after this company hard.

Regarding this idea, I would say.... don’t quit your day job but thanks for the chuckle.

Matchmaking service for those (typically) without health insurance, flaky work aptitude, and whose career is usually in the shitter by age 40. Lol

I'd assume they are banking on making those fees from the customers of strip clubs / pornography. Basically targeting PL's who have extra income and will not be matched, so cycle that membership charge as long as possible!

All I can say is that I wasn't impressed with the size of nicespice's penis. 🤷

"A $3000 value"?!?!

Does this come with a bottle of 30 year Macallan delivered by a stripper?

I do enjoy buying a lady a drink!
That is all I would look for in meeting someone.
Cheers!!!

This is going to end poorly for the OP. A lawsuit from Disney will shut this down.

I didn’t click on the link - as I don’t trust this one at all!

I agree with blah. This is questionable research at best.

I'm trying to picture the guys who would sign up for a membership to meet strippers looking to date. That's gotta make even the most whacko of the membership here look well adjusted.

I did click on the link and poked around, I get the impression you're actually trying to do what you claim & this isn't a troll/scam post. I'll repeat what the others have said, the Disney owned imagery and verbiage will draw their ire real fast if you get anywhere with this. Also, I'm not sure how much market research you've done. While there are certainly strippers looking for love, and those with 3k to spend on it, I think the intersection is pretty damn small. And think about the first sentence too. There might be solutions to that problem, but right now you're hanging out a sign that says "Want to date strippers - pay me 3k and I'll set you up on dates." You're gonna get a lot more dudes who just wanna bang strippers than you are dudes who are just open minded and non-judgemental. The latter group isn't going to sign up for a dating service that caters specifically to sex workers in big numbers. Especially if they have to pay for it.

Also, you're gonna have to work hard as hell to make sure none of the sex workers you work with embody any of those stereotypes/challenges you mention. Or you'll loose any credibility instantly.

I disagree Dolphan, that website was put up in a hurry using a very rudimentary publishing program, heck I'm not sure it wasn't Microsoft Paint.

The url itself https://dreamscometrue.dating/services/

Doesn't have the typical '.com' which leadse to believe it's coming out of someone's local server.

So, any dufus with a Linux computer could have spun this up rather quickly. I'll commend the commitment, but it's still just a troll post.

Ok maybe I was a little harsh, this person bothered using WordPress, again very rudimentary, but it's definitely a joke

pic names:

that made me laugh

@GACA - Wordpress is super popular, by some figures 30% of sites use it. And stock images have those kinda names. I'm guessing the hosting came with a domain name, a WP template and access to some stock images. I don't wanna say legit, but this doesn't feel like the typical trolls post.

@OP - Try Stripperweb.
