Could someone clearly define what exactly a prostitute is first?

Ok so the majority of Dave's posters who responded have employed the services of a sex worker. My guesstimate, as much as it can be, was correct.

The only other question now is how representative of a typical male, Dave's posters are. I would say that with the proximity of countries like Thailand and the Philippines, plus the fact that most males who come here are single, it would skew it a little. Though i'm still not sure about WT's 85% who never have figure. Sounds way too high to me.

I'd say in the 75% range, or higher, for men to have paid for it at least once in their lifetime. It's practically an unspoken right of passage for men all over the world, with the exception of North America, where men don't admit they've paid for it.

Oh, so you've paid for it and are trying to convince yourself that "everyone else does it too". Stats from many different places all over the world show very few women (as a percentage of the population) engage in prostitution, and when they do, it is not for very long. The majority of men (on anonymous surveys- where there would be no shame factors) say that have never visited a prostitute. And why would they. It is illegal; who in their right mind would want to risk getting a criminal record over that, there is a high risk of getting an STD (some of which are incurable), and it is really expensive, which is a huge waste of money. It is gross. In my city I didn't even know where the prostitutes were (because there weren't that many of them). It's a dirty industry. And it's an industry most men don't have first hand knowledge of.

This is an obviously ill-conceived poll for an English teacher's hangout.

Not surprised to see it, though, coming from the OP.

Please vote no (if that's the truth) if you want to help make English teachers here look less bad.

There are plenty of countries where prostitution is legal, including some where English teachers come from e.g. UK, Canada and Australia. Are you not the guy who's been repeatedly championing smoking weed on here, which is illegal in more countries than prostitution and probably disapproved of more by Korean employers/parents
