Title: The Unpopular Opinion Puffin Thread
Post by: KittiMinx on December 09, 2017, 08:16:49 AM
We've had threads before that were all "let's spread positivity" and "kiss and make up", but those don't address some matters like many feel they have opinions that aren't exactly popular and not well represented. So here's a thread for just that!

(https://lilypressharpist.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/93.jpg?w=640)
Unpopular Opinion Puffin
Rules:
- Post your unpopular opinion or opinion you hav you may think is unpopular.
- Do not reply to or argue someone's unpopular opinion - it's why this thread was made.
- If you agree with someone's unpopular opinion feel free to "Like" it (I have a feeling some "unpopular opinions" may be more popular than people think)
- Have fun and don't take things super seriously

Well, you have to be careful. That is labeling folks as Toxic posters just because they might not share the same opinions. 

BTW: That's what stands out on this board and makes this board better.  The fact there are different opinions unlike the brothel message boards that only allow one opinion----Theirs!

You are not entitled to  a party with a specific Lady just because she happens to be the one you are most attracted to if she personally feels your budget is too low for her and that doesn't make her a bitch or a bad person; at the same time sex workers have to realize there's no such thing as easy money and most people seeking the service of sex workers in the first place (whether legally in a brothel or indie) are not upper class with a ton of disposable income and be more open-minded and accommodating if they want their work (and themselves) taken seriously.

My Great Aunt used to go to the same dealer every 3 years or so and buy a new car.  Not that she needed one, her "old" car would only have 10K miles on it.  But that is what she did.  The dealership was happy to see her and they sold her a new car for MSRP and gave her low book for her "old" car.  She could afford it but that is not the point.  She could have got a better deal if she tried.  The salesman could have given her a better deal if he wanted to.  But, in my opinion, this is the way sales works.  The salesperson will always favor his or her wallet more than voluntarily saving the customer money.

There is always a certain level of resentment amongst the blue collar workers towards those that are better off.  It varies with time and place.  It can get out of hand like the French Revolution.  There is a good percentage of blue collar workers on this and other forums.  Anytime it comes to light that a lady charges 4 figures, she is going to get pummeled.  Not withstanding all the admonitions that a lady can charge whatever she wants, she is going to get pummeled.

I think sometimes there is a misconception that some mongers only go to Elko because of price. Many go because they are treated with respect and appreciation from the ladies. Sue's place is lower in price then Monas and Inez yet you do not hear as much there on this board. Not that anything is wrong with that.I would gladly go to the bigger houses if the ladies there could work with my budget. I am not saying none do at bigger houses but having an idea of prices there is helpful to know which ladies I could see. And simply because a lady works with my budget there might not be chemistry there. It is a start though.

Every lady in LPIN is an individual person.  They have different goals, different needs, different bodies, different ways they recharge energy.  Some can handle five parties a day and be ready for more.  Some find that more than two parties a day stress out their bodies and/or emotions.  Some love the excitement of being picked by walk-in clientele and some feel most comfortable with clients whom they have talked to for a while before the first party.  Every lady is different so talking about them as if they were all the same, be it by all those in a house or all those in the industry as a whole, is to miss the beauty of the diversity within all the houses. 

Every client and every poster is different as well.  I will try to make sure that I fully express my cognizance of that fact in my future posting.

Dennis Hof has done a lot of good for the legal brothels as a whole.
^^^ His willingness to put himself out there and be completely shameless in the media has brought us ladies a lot of business since we can't openly advertise in many areas.
Cathouse helped bring great ladies and clients into this business because it caught their attention.
Title: Re: The Unpopular Opinion Puffin Thread
Post by: Mitch on December 09, 2017, 08:13:54 PM
Dennis Hof created a business model that put legal prostitution out of the financial reach of many clients, using Cathouse as advertisement and setting a pricing expectation for those previously unintroduced to the legal brothel system while simultaneously disallowing any discussion of pricing on his forums and encouraging the "pricing discussion is illegal" postings on independent boards.

Dennis Hof at one time was a good friend to the mongers, particularly on special occasions like LPIN Gathering, Winterfest, and other massed gatherings when he would run specials like half-off parties, throw bashes, and give away prizes.  He also is very personable and generous, often buying drinks or inviting guys to spend the night for free in a spare room.

The phenomenon that is called life is one huge accident that took what seems like an eternity to occur.

Human intelligence was all a HUGE MISTAKE. That was not supposed to happen.

We may be existing in an infinitely expanding balloon that is the dark void of space.

There may be an infinite amount of universes, galaxies, whatever the fuck.

God is a lie, and religion is one big con.

Our government is corrupt, and we as the sheeple are all doomed.

The human race will eventually die off, and we won't be remembered for shit.

When you die, you go into the ground. Just like any other animal.

No one is special. We're all just meat sacks that got lucky enough to retain a higher level of conscience.

The list goes on. Fite me!!

The fact there is still not at least one brothel with legal male and Trans* sex workers (who can see clients of any gender) is a huge missed, wasted opportunity with a lot of potential not just for profits but also for progress. Just because it's not most of y'all's cuppa tea doesn't mean the market for it doesn't exist. And when it does happen those sex workers should also be treated with respect and dignity.

I may not agree with every Lady and their methods and opinions but it doesn't mean I'm going to fight them and not stick up for them and their rights to free speech (as well as rights as ICs). There's a lot done to turn sex workers against each other whether working the same house or different houses with different owners and fuck that. This industry makes more money when we all work together as a whole than against one another.

Gabriel at the Desert Rose in Elko is an underappreciated, underrepresented brothel owner and that is a damn shame. Even though I don't work for him and never worked for him, he'd been nothing but kind, respectful, and understanding. (And was especially understanding of my reasons to not want to work in Elko - namely my unpredictable travel schedule.) He's a super cool dude.

Presenting a differing opinion from someone else's with an open mind isn't toxicity, it is dialectic.  Attacking the person, taunting, harassing, trolling, or bullying them is toxic.  I'm all for lively discussions with others bringing different views but people can get toxic here because #1. They take anyone presenting an opinion outside of the norms of the established echo chamber as an affront to the entire community (see the article Roxanne posted in reply #13) and #2. They choose to fight back with personal attacks vs. gathering evidence and presenting counter arguments.

I'm sure that the people mass tweeting to August Ames telling her that she is a disgusting homophobe and that she should take a cyanide pill were thinking that they were just expressing their opinion as well.  We all tragically saw how that turned out.  That kind of behavior isn't much different than calling someone bullshit, a bitch, or a cuck,  or stating over and over again for weeks that the person's opinion's don't matter because they don't really exist: they are a sock puppet (even after several people proved otherwise).

Those people that get the difference and choose to present their arguments in a civil manor, I love having lively discussions with you and, if we ever meet, 1st round is on me.  For those of you that don't understand the difference or just choose to spew toxicity for personal fun, I really hope that the August Ames tragedy has shown you that words do matter, even on the anonymous internet.  Words have impact and words can be weapons if used maliciously.

The monger rate in Elko has given ladies who worked at bigger houses a place they are not forced to upsell and can still decide who they party with in a safe and non-competitive environment; It also allows Clients to not focus on negotiating but rather enjoying their time with a lady and focusing their entire attention on her.

Cathouse helped bring great ladies and clients into this business because it caught their attention.

He's also brought the independents, a lot of business with customers who once use to go to the brothels but no longer can afford them.

BTW: The Growth in the Nevada brothels has come though higher prices, not customer count. Anyone who went to the brothels  back in the day knows the brothels were packed. Standing room only. Now you have 15 girls fighting over one customer who might walk though the door.  In a time when Nevada has probably about 4 times the population as in the 70's you have less customers. Perhaps that's why working girls have to charge so much.

Unpopular Opinions...

1.  This board is not near as bad as some ladies might like to make it out to be.  As far as many internet forums for prostitution go-- its pretty kind and gentle. 

2.  Not all ladies at big houses quote 4 figures for basic parties. 

3.  Despite the lesser overall numbers of brothels, the industry is growing as opposed to dying. 
Title: Re: The Unpopular Opinion Puffin Thread
Post by: KittiMinx on December 10, 2017, 09:26:58 AM
The larger houses make it easier to get a more diverse variety of Ladies beyond who is local to Nevada and surrounding states by being closer to cities with major airports and by having so many Ladies (and putting them on shifts) there's less pressure on Ladies having a full 12 month work schedule planned in advance or pressure to return/come in when she's on break because there aren't enough Ladies in house even when she's not getting specially requested or appointments.

Mainstream pornography has been able to adapt to the changes in culture and advances in technology in order to thrive, and if the brothel industry doesn't expand its horizons and follow suit soon it's going to face the same issues the large porn companies/studios did when they were reluctant to change.

Unpopular Opinions (maybe) ....

1 - Sometimes we like Ruby's posts, just because she's so adorable!  Dennis creeps us out with his sleeping with the ladies and the whole "daddy" thing ... but he's a helluva business man and is an intimidating presence against the politicians who would like to end LPIN. 

2 - We miss people who are no longer on this board.  Sled, Dirk, Alice, and many others brought value to the board even if there was sometimes fuel added to an issue.  We are all grown ups and can choose to not read a thread when we want to avoid the drama.  We don't know, or care much about the past - just want to assure there's a board that is valuable to others who venture into LPIN. 

3 - We get why some people have stopped posting on pricing threads, however we've spent thousand$ in LPIN thanks to those posts and plan to spend tens of thousand$ more as a result of the information they shared with us.  For every lady that we spend money on in the future - those members who helped teach us deserve a free drink, time, or at least a "thank you" instead of castration!

Brothel owners should be regarded the same as any other kind of business owner and not engage romantically or sexually with those contracted to work for them or have a free pass to make (what in any other work setting would be) inappropriate remarks that could be considered harassment.  Ladies who sign up to be courtesans sign up for sex with paying customers, not to take part in someone's harem fantasy, and whether or not they're treated well shouldn't depend on how much they suck up to those in charge or go to their bed. If it would get the owner of a restaurant, store, or regular bar not seen in a positive light the same should apply to brothel owners as it only leads to worse drama. (ie don't shit where you eat)

It's okay for the owner of a brothel to not be on site 24/7 especially if they have other business ventures (doubly so if not related to the industry) so long as there's a decent amount of trained capable staff managing things like clockwork in their absence.

24/hr houses with no shifts shouldn't be a thing because people need sleep and sleep deprivation makes people less effective workers.

People place sex on a pedestal especially in relationships even if the intent isn't on reproduction and that ideology around sex leads to how poorly sex is taught to people and the ways people express sexuality that may differ from the norm are treated.

It's 100% possible to platonically love people and it's not weird.

Unpopular Opinion Puffin exists not to create/stir up/perpetuate drama but to allow everyone with their diverse thoughts, ideas, and opinions to share them even if they don't think they're exactly popular in a setting where others can't argue/bash them for it because doing so is against the rules and purpose of such a thread and everyone has a right to express their opinion even if it's not one you personally agree with.  Arguing with/bashing someone for stating their unpopular opinion puffin goes against puffin law and doing so will cause puffins to haunt your dreams with their unpopular opinions.

Jimmy Carter may not have been the best president but achieved a lot and did much good in his time since leaving office.

I don't know a thing about a monger rate. Only what I would pay if I were still going. I've always believed the woman has a right to charge whatever she wants. If the customer thinks it's too much, he doesn't have to go to the brothel.  Hmm, what could he do with the money he saves on one party? A weeks Vegas Vacation. A new big screen TV and blue ray player? A great lap top computer? How about a new set of tires along with some fuzzy dice to hang from the rear view mirror? Hell, he could even hire a lawyer for a couple hours or longer. How about a 4day cruise on a turnaround special?  Or 25 large pizzas? the list is endless.

Just because a lady accepts lower rate parties doesn't make her "cheap" or of lower worth.  On the flip side, just because a lady doesn't accept lower rate parties doesn't make her "stuck up" or a "money grubbing bitch".  While we are all entitled to our opinions, it is of my opinion that judging the ladies by their rates is wrong because rates are usually based on circumstance and not the quality, heart, integrity, or value of the ladies themselves.

I don't have enough information to agree or disagree with you Ruby. If the typical 50:50 split with the house still I holds for monger rate parties, then I agree with you. However, if the house wants to reward/attract individuals who speak up on this board and give them tons of free and very positive advertising by taking la lesser percentage, then I think the ladies might be be being treated fairly. If the answer to that question is 'well known,' chalk it up to my newbyness.

If a sex worker at a brothel shows to be quite capable at things other than sex work, especially things valuable to a business to run smoothly, the brothel should consider discussing actual employment options with the sex worker rather than limit them or compensate them in some other way for doing extra work.

- If you agree with someone's unpopular opinion feel free to "Like" it (I have a feeling some "unpopular opinions" may be more popular than people think)
- Have fun and don't take things super seriously

Presenting a differing opinion from someone else's with an open mind isn't toxicity, it is dialectic.  Attacking the person, taunting, harassing, trolling, or bullying them is toxic.  I'm all for lively discussions with others bringing different views but people can get toxic here because #1. They take anyone presenting an opinion outside of the norms of the established echo chamber as an affront to the entire community (see the article Roxanne posted in reply #13) and #2. They choose to fight back with personal attacks vs. gathering evidence and presenting counter arguments.

I'm sure that the people mass tweeting to August Ames telling her that she is a disgusting homophobe and that she should take a cyanide pill were thinking that they were just expressing their opinion as well.  We all tragically saw how that turned out.  That kind of behavior isn't much different than calling someone bullshit, a bitch, or a cuck,  or stating over and over again for weeks that the person's opinion's don't matter because they don't really exist: they are a sock puppet (even after several people proved otherwise).

Those people that get the difference and choose to present their arguments in a civil manor, I love having lively discussions with you and, if we ever meet, 1st round is on me.  For those of you that don't understand the difference or just choose to spew toxicity for personal fun, I really hope that the August Ames tragedy has shown you that words do matter, even on the anonymous internet.  Words have impact and words can be weapons if used maliciously.
One thing that i thought about regarding August Ames if she was concerned about getting a negative reaction when she made her decision (we all know what it is) why did she have to put it out publicly on social media surely she must of thought about the probabilities of incurring negative reactions. much better to prevent than to post heal.

this may come as harsh but i do have little sympathy for people who expect sympathy and understanding when they themselves are not smart enough to weigh in the consequences of actions that will divide and polarize the social media establishment. one must feel that they are digging up their own grave.
I will trace a comparison in fiction movie lore and the critic Roger Ebert who scoffed at the ''idiot plot syndrome'' witch required everybody to say the wrong thing at the wrong time to protect the idiocy of it's mistake.
The difference is that this was not a movie so there was no protection of the idiot mistake, to move the plot along like in a movie.

Title: Re: The Unpopular Opinion Puffin Thread
Post by: roxanneprice on December 11, 2017, 11:02:49 AM
If you find yourself liking someone, or something then REMAIN SKEPTICAL of said person or thing. So many people do things for self serving motives, and they WILL go out of their way to make a positive impression on the people that they have something to gain from. It's so typical in this industry for people to play politics, and try to win people over for the wrong reasons. Charisma is a sure sign that the person can, and will manipulate people/situations in their favour.

REMAIN SKEPTICAL if someone seems overly pleasant, and offers too many promises along the way. If someone offers multiple promises in a short ammount of time then those promises are most likely EMPTY. Actions speak louder than words.

PRETENTIOUS PEOPLE SUCK. I can not stand when someone is constantly over hyping their own accomplishments. Stay humble, and focus on complimenting others. A solid character does not need a pat on the back to feel good about themselves. Pretentious people build their own imginary soap boxes, and they'll stay on it preaching bullshit until someone has the balls to push them the fuck off of it.

I for one believe that someone who is constantly trying to take iniative is UNTRUSTWORTHY. Remain skeptical with the leader types, as they are always trying to transform people into their followers. There are two types of leaders: The ones who want to lead for self serving reasons, and the ones that lead because no one else is around to do the job properly. Did they deem themselves a leader, or did the people? I have no respect for a self proclaimed leader.

FURTHERMORE, don't be anyone's follower. Why would you want to give up your power to a potentially manipulative person? Think for yourself, and keep a healthy dose of skepticism in your thoughts. People are constantly trying to exploit, and fuck with others.

ONE LAST NOTE. Anyone who appears overly needy is toxic in their own ways. When someone can not love themselves then they feel the need to leech off of other's happiness. One who can not sustain their own happiness levels will drain the people around them. Learn to love yourself, and then other's will be able to love you. If someone appears to be.a toxic leech, REMOVE THEM OUT OF YOUR LIFE IMMEDIATLEY. You can't fix them, or their low self esteem.

These are just a few lessons that LPIN has tought me. I am forever grateful, because these lessons are rarely learned at such an accelerated rate.

Michael Eisner did a lot of good for the Disney Company, and Bob Iger's method of just buying other existing properties, popping the Disney name on it, and putting it out there shows less creativity and willingness to take risks the way Eisner did. Also the reason many Disney fans hated Eisner was simply because as being a CEO who prominently featured in media he'd become the first real new "face" of the Disney company since Walt died and people were salty over that.

Things at the Disney company would've gone a lot differently, especially in the 90s and early 2000s, if Frank Wells didn't die in the plane crash and 1994 and was still alive to today. As the mediator between Eisner and Katzenberg it's less likely if he were still around Dreamworks ever would've become a thing and the shift in quality in Disney animation in the mid-late 90s and 2000s wouldn't have been as severe.

Toy Story 3 had the perfect ending there is absolutely no reason for a 4th.

The phenomenon that is called life is one huge accident that took what seems like an eternity to occur.

Human intelligence was all a HUGE MISTAKE. That was not supposed to happen.

We may be existing in an infinitely expanding balloon that is the dark void of space.

There may be an infinite amount of universes, galaxies, whatever the fuck.

God is a lie, and religion is one big con.

Our government is corrupt, and we as the sheeple are all doomed.

The human race will eventually die off, and we won't be remembered for shit.

When you die, you go into the ground. Just like any other animal.

No one is special. We're all just meat sacks that got lucky enough to retain a higher level of conscience.

The list goes on. Fite me!!

I'm thankful to be in America where you can make porn of your own volition and not be arrested because in some countries you only have to merely hint at sexuality in the content you create and you can be sentenced to prison for it, even if it's art.

Statutes of limitations exist for a reason. If someone did something 5+, 10+ years ago unless it truly affected your life where you can't work, have relationships, exist as a person (or they killed people) - move on. "But they could hurt more people" yeah and during the time you said nothing they also could've hurt people. Or they could've realized where they errored and changed because people do that too. Millions if not billions of people live with trauma inflicted on them from other people - few can exist in a bubble. Cultural norms, however, are changing so for generations to come statistics show many things us and previous generations were at risk for will be less likely. Live with your shit, move on, and look out for others. It's innocent until proven guilty not the other way around.

If it's okay to euthanize animals when it's deemed they no longer have a chance at "quality of life" then assisted suicide shouldn't be as controversial as it is and people suffering with no way to get quality of life back deserve the right to decide when it's their time even if it's someone you love and you'll feel hurt if they make the choice to go.

"Independent Contractor" should not just be said as an excuse to charge higher rates and it's hypocritical to say that line to justify your rates if you accuse Ladies of willingly booking parties for lower rates of "bringing the value of the house down". The Ladies willingly booking for lower are Independent Contractors too and should feel free to counter with that line when someone tries to give them flack.  If a house is truly "willing to work with nearly any budget" that means there has to be Ladies in the house allowed to feel comfortable booking parties for lower rates and not getting shamed for it by other Ladies or brothel staff. As another user said $400 could be half a month's pay for them, the same as $4000 could be for another and it doesn't mean they're undeserving of services or should get the short end of the stick because they're not high rollers.  What "brings down the value of the house" is if it more often has Ladies walk more customers than they book which drives them to other houses those customers feel get them "better value".

Hiring for a job should be based on ability or, at the very least, the aptitude to learn and not based on quota's or social engineering experiments. It's great to have diversity, but if someone can't do the job, is too dumb to know how to breathe on their own, and is just a total scumbag in general then your efforts are counter productive and will reinforce, and probably increase, the negative attitudes already in place.

Deer have to be the dumbest creatures on Earth. Can someone please tell me what other animals don't run and just stand still when something that's about to kill them is fast approaching????

The minimum wage needs to be a livable wage because few employers anymore offer many opportunities for workers to move up the ladder the longer they stay with the business and gain experience, and too many companies would rather hire a bunch of people they can pay less and dispose of than pay people they can move up. And most of these jobs are full time or add up to full-time hours or more. People doing all this work should be able to afford to live comfortably, not impoverished (https://www.thebillfold.com/2015/07/it-was-always-supposed-to-be-a-living-wage/).

Hope this doesn't break your rules Kitti

I really wish that Dr. Who, the poster, used Tom Baker as his avatar.  To me and my formative childhood, Tom Baker WAS Dr. Who.  Any woman that knits me an authentic, warm and soft Fourth Doctor scarf, I will love you forever and will dedicate my life to your every need and desire.

Why does it have to be knit by a woman? *glances at username*

I love the story behind that scarf. The way I heard it it goes that they gave a knitter a box of yarn and asked her to make a scarf. Being a knitter, she used all of the yarn instead of making it just a single color. Guess it worked out though, that thing is iconic.

70/30 favoring the ladies cuts over the house is definitely something I'm in favor of and I'll explain why:  The ladies bring in the most revenue and the most business, it's hard to imagine a house being famous for it's drinks or for it's lunch menu it's the quality of ladies working that does.

In addition to 70/30 no more house minimums and all gratuities the ladies receive are theirs.

I live by the old saying that a happy workforce is a productive workforce and the service these ladies provides is invaluable.

Thank you!

Courtesans can be honest about themselves to a degree (obviously don't reveal anything too personal that could put your safety/security at risk) and not lose business/potentially business over it.

Parents who do the Santa thing shouldn't tag pricier gifts as being from Santa (like expensive toys, electronics, etc) because kids from all walks of life and families with varying income brackets celebrate and do the Santa traditions - so it can easily be hurtful for and confuse kids whose family may not have a lot of money why Santa only gave them clothes/socks/school supplies/relatively cheap toys while their peers are showing off super cool expensive things like tablets and video game consoles they got as gifts from "Santa". That it sends the unintentional message that Santa must like these kids more if he gives them cool expensive things but not the other kids. Instead, parents who do splurge on a gift for their kids for the holidays should take credit for the more lavish gifts noting on the cards and outright saying it's from them/from grandparents/other family members while "Santa" presents can be more generic stocking stuffers.  The concept of Santa is that he loves and gifts all children and you're only naughty in his eyes if you get a lump of coal (not an inexpensive gift), so him giving more and better to some kids than others taints the whole idea of him altogether which is kinda heartbreaking.

Ladies who place inherent value on themselves and on their peers based on the dollar amount for parties they book and think higher or lesser of themselves and/or others because of that fact are quite insecure and need to do a lot of self-reflection - perhaps seek counseling. It's the same in the regular world when people make comments about someone looking "cheap". In LPIN do you see every Lady's pay stub where you know for sure what every Lady is booking for each party? Would you rather a Lady make no money by not taking under certain amounts and then not being able to pay her bills or do what she entered the business for because for some reason you can't respect her for taking parties for an amount you may not regardless as to whether or not you know what happens in those parties? Ladies in Elko and Rural houses who may have a rep on here for doing parties for less than 4 figures on average aren't any worse at their job or less worthy of respect than Ladies who regularly take and ask more for their parties. Rivalry, cattiness, and infighting in the industry isn't going to save it or help anyone do better business. It just makes everything worse. Plus we're independent contractors. If you have set rates with no variables for anything, you're only hurting yourself and don't know your rights as well as miss out on opportunities.

This is based on personal experience but I'm aware ladies set their own prices.  Still management does push the rules of IC and sets minimums.  I know some ladies would charge less and am open to talking to them but I've been up that way twice now and that's my experience.

If larger brothels have the ability to offer/provide amenities for ICs such as fitness centers (and even personal trainers), beauty services (hair, nails, tanning, etc), massage therapists/spa services,  assistance with setting up bank accounts / check cashing/depositing services, in-house (or provided through the same clinic) medical services aside from standard testing (including things like flu shots, etc), and even cosmetic services .... There should also be an available option for mental health help as well, such as a licensed therapist/counselor who can come in and talk to ICs who may need it. Regular "civilian job" companies have already started doing it (https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/big-companies-offering-more-on-site-health-care-for-employees/2012/06/18/gJQAjIOnlV_story.html?utm_term=.ab4354cb4147) as part of other benefits their workers get.  And of course they've seen the obvious merits and benefits (https://www.mseap.com/benefits-workplace-counseling/) to having those services available as it helps improve worker productivity and performance, decrease absenteeism, lowers turnover rates, and helps to find ways to handle workers who exhibit problematic behaviors where they might be able to adjust said behavior (which again leads to better productivity and performance). And this is stuff that's just found in job settings where people come in for their shifts and get to go home at the end of the day.

It's different in brothels because most Ladies at most brothels can't just go home when their shift is over and come in the next day when it starts. Ladies work and reside on the property 24/7 whether the house has shifts or not. (Even when off shift, not all Ladies really go out or go anywhere when off shift they're still doing things around on the property.) Sometimes Ladies get a day or a couple of days off every so often where they can leave the property - but not every Lady gets to do that, some also spend full days off on the property as well. And since tours for Ladies are at least a week (usually at least 2) that's a pretty long time to be kinda stuck in the same place with the same people. Plus many Ladies don't come with very many devices other than their phone and even then depending on their carrier and location of the brothel they may not get cell service (plus wifi can also be a crapshoot) so they're often also cut off and isolated from their friends and family at home for extended periods of time too - leaving them with less of a support system than they're accustomed to. 

There's Ladies in LPIN who battle past or current addictions - alcohol, drugs, etc - who likely aren't getting real help they need while they're working.  Conflicts between Ladies tend to happen to varying degrees at any house for a myriad of reasons. Plus add in the various stressors of doing the job itself, not just the physical work - but the mental and emotional labor.  A lot of issues could be decreased if Ladies had access to someone to talk to and be able to work on whatever may be troubling them while they're there. Learn more effective coping mechanisms and strategies. Be able to learn better, healthier conflict resolution.  Simply having a safe space to talk about problems and get them off their chest can help cut down on stress, plus having a guide in learning to look at issues with a different perspective and even more positive outlook.  I have a feeling there'd be less Staff/IC conflict and issues if Ladies had the option to access such services as it's likely if they need some kind of help and are getting it (even if it's just an objective third party to talk to) they'd be less inclined to display behaviors the house may take issue with.

Yes LPIN is a job, but a majority of jobs even ones where workers may have to reside on site don't have such extremes of isolation and insulation. Many Ladies who enter LPIN do come from difficult situations and struggles - so the added stresses with few if any productive outlets don't help. Of course, not every Lady needs these kinds of services just like they may not need/use other services and amenities provided/offered. But there are definitely ones who do, and they could benefit from it which in turn would benefit the house itself as those Ladies would likely perform better than they had been, be more productive, be more reliable, and less likely to cause/take part in conflict which would help keep houses more harmonious.

For many of us, part of our parties involves essentially acting as a therapist to our clients. Listening to their troubles and stories and talking them through things. But it's not commonly a two-way street. So we have to take in this extra emotional and mental labor on top of what we may already have to deal with and not always have the best means of destressing and decompressing. At least regular therapists take notes and keep charts and files and they go home usually every day and can separate work from home. It's kinda hard to separate when we're "living" where we're working. For our regulars, we may have to work harder at making sure we remember everything and when the parties are over we're still in the same physical place.  I'm fortunate in that I'm a tough gal with a lot of compassion and empathy and can take these things on and manage everything. But we're all different and I'm sure it can be much harder on others.

So I doubt this will ever happen or be a thing because these matters aren't heavily thought about with an objective to address and try to fix root causes. But I'd be pleasantly surprised if it did. Hence why it's a Puffin because I doubt many (if any at all) share these kinds of sentiments.

So when the Bengals eliminated the Ravens yesterday, it was an extra special celebration. One of the better New Years Eve's I've spent in a long time.

Sorry Kitti for the thread diversion. Please return to the Puffin theme.

It's okay Geo! After 10+ pages it's bound to happen! I'm thrilled for the most part y'all were able to stick to Puffin Rules (for the most part lol) for this long.

People really need to be more careful on NYE. Especially with services like Uber, Lyft, and other customer pickup/drop off/ride businesses plus special things companies like AAA do (even with non-members) to get those who imbibed safely home along with their vehicle. Several accidents occurred in my area alone (showed up traffic news) and a good number of DUIs. We're getting closer to 2020 - put your safety and that of others around you first and don't be reckless.
