Poor Economy or Just Cheap?
Wow.
It’s just my luck that I joined the world’s oldest profession in the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. A couple months ago, SF Weekly, an alternative weekly publication, did a feature on San Francisco’s transgender prostitutes. They quoted this one Latina who said she used to make TWO to THREE THOUSAND a night!
Of course, I never expected to make that much. Secretly hoped to, yes. But expecting that much — never. Even so, I was not prepared for the offer I got this morning from a prospective client.
For one Benjamin Franklin (I repeat: one — just ONE!) he wanted me to: (1) score crystal meth for him, (2) round up “a few more girls so we can have an orgy” and (3) party all night with him. All of this for just one hundred dollars. At first I thought I misunderstood (Oh sorry my english no good can mister please repeat?) but the guy was confident that it was a fair, all-inclusive price. For drugs, sex (with 3 or more Tgirls) and an all-night commitment.
Motherfucker this ain’t Priceline, I wanted to tell him. Fuck William Shatner you DO NOT name your own price here.
After I hung up the phone I ran straight to the bathroom to check my teeth. For a minute there I thought I turned into one of those cracked-out Tenderloin trannies living on the streets with all their teeth missing. Thank god my teeth are still intact. I even gave each of them a little tug.
Stay strong my little white pearlies.
It’s a slippery, slippery slope. One minute you’re negotiating over Benjamin Franklins and Andrew Jacksons and the next minute you’re begging for spare change on Polk St. Just to make sure I’m making an appointment with my dentist first thing tomorrow.

You are hilarious! I am sorry you had such a bad experience but I do appreciate that sharp sense of humor responding to that foolishness!

Baby,
Where to start? Most people that have blogs write about shit that is so boring and / or inane that their best friends wouldn’t listen to it. Thankfully that is not the case with yours. You have an edge, and apparently aren’t afraid to use it.
I’m on the other side of the transaction and have made friends with a few providers in the process.
The ones that enjoy what they do invaribly become my regulars and frequently friends.
Anyway, in addition to being intellectually attractive, you are smoking hott. (in case u forgot) I would love to take your cock balls deep in my throat until you coat my throat with a nice thick load.
After a little recovery time, I would hungrily suck you hard again so you could take your time fucking my ass to your hearts content.
Hope to see you next time I’m in SF. Keep the faith, there will always be clients willing to spend for quality, I know, I am one.

Jimmy: you married? Because if you are, I”m going to take you away from her! xoxo Cass
If this stuff were legalized as it should be, what would the price of the services described above be in such an open, legalized marketplace? Answer- Prices would be commensurate with the scarcity of the skills required for your profession that would likely be available in such an unrestricted market to meet demand- and you would probably be making about, oh, $100/ nite, if that.
Of course, you wouldn’t have to face the threat of being busted (if they do that in SF anyway) so it wouldn’t be all bad, tho the days of making 2-3 grand a nite for possessing roughly the same skills (if not less) as someone working in a sweatshop overseas for like $3 per day or something would be over….
Now, personally, if someone offered me a 100 bux to cop some drugs (providing I knew someone who did that), call a bunch of chix to have an orgy & party, I don’t think I would complain a whole lot about being underpaid for this rather less-than-strenuous work, but then again i don’t have as much a sense of entitlement as I should have, or maybe I just have too low standards… I guess you get beaten down by the system when you’re just a regular working class stiff who doesn’t know your true market value…
