But what are the bad things for a high-end escort? They wrote about how she felt like she couldn't communicate about her career. They also wrote that a lot of the safety issues that plague low end prostitutes weren't…
how reasonable! letting people keep their private lives private. Imagine if that caught on in North America!
I took that as a given, kragen. Perhaps I should have prefaced my remark with: "for those women who are interested in the profession...." [edit] it's interesting though - amongst homosexual men, there's significantly…

"So the real puzzle isn’t why someone like Allie becomes a prostitute, but rather why more women don’t choose this career." Most women don't do this because of the social stigma, and those that don't care about the…
There is definitely an under-served niche here. From my conversations with other busty women, most bras and swimwear are either un-fashionable or ill-fitting, or un-supportive. I recently decided I would learn to sew my…
Think outside the box, SwellJoe. Brainstorming has value of it's own.
That's a really nice quote to post! how sweet!
Happy Birthday Trevor - it's my birthday too!
This confirms my brother's stories. He has a penchant for dating Scandinavian women--thusfar he's dated women from Denmark and Norway and has visited them and their families. Denmark was, of course, expensive by US…
Zarathu, the point is that it IS irrational and illogical--that's why it's a problem. It comes from the subconscious. Which is why so many people took offense when I brought it up... in their conscious mind they're not…
kryo, that was a really nasty, disparaging, and insensitive thing to write. You can figure out that I'm a woman within 30 seconds of reading my application because of the organizations I've been involved with, what I…
I've heard pg make some pretty strong statements. I'm sure they turn people off but I'm not sure he cares about the opinions of those people. I think it's pretty gratuitous for you to give me a lesson on selling to…
I don't expect points for being female, but it is something that sets me apart in this scenario. I don't think you, a YC alum, would necessarily dock me for being a woman. I do think that you might not find some of my…
The thing is, I'm ridiculously outgoing. I even have my own event production company in New York City. I'm excellent at speaking with people. I still need work on pitching, but I have no problem talking to everyone...…
B. I'm not a coder. I feel that most of my accomplishments will not read as well to a coder as they won't identify with them. That's it. (I have technical co-founders)
My mistake. I spoke to a few YC alums and they told me that RTM wasn't really involved. Thank you for clarifying.
It's not about them looking at my breasts. More often they look away from me as if I don't exist at all.
No, this thread was a reaction to the announcement that was just revealed. I feel entitled to state my opinion after I spent so much time tailoring my application to a specific rubric. I'm sure you understand. The fact…
No, we had 2 submissions - One headed by my partner with 4 founders, another headed by me with 2 founders. The other founders are all men. I am the first face on our application video. We did that to set us apart from…
That would be nice. I also wonder if things are better on the West Coast. My experience has been on the East.
Hear, hear. I loved your comment. You too seem to be sensitive to the issues, and like me are unsure what is the correct solution, although are willing to discuss it. The fact that you're willing to get under people's…
It's only shady if you care about karma.
I thought it says they're likely to view your demo if the application is promising... and they like viewing videos.
Yes, it's incorrigible and often justified with sophomoric platitudes, even here on HN. I can't tell if you're insinuating that I am using sophomoric platitudes, but I hope you respect that I have been trying to speak…
