I don't want to hear the hogwash about the chicas doing it to"feed their Ch*ldren." I find that disrespectful to my maid and all the women I know who WORK for a living. I don't look down on them for being prostitutes, but they should lay off the sympathy aspect. If they were really doing it for the K*ds, they could hook a couple of years, put away money and set up a life outside the business. They are in the business for shopping, cell phones, clothes and such and want the easy way to get there. Otherwise, a chica could make enough to take care of the K*ds in maybe 7 days out of the month working. I always treat the women with respect, but get a little tired of guys seeing them as these martyrs, making the great sacrifice for the K*ds. Just my 2 cents worth.

That is true of some certainly. I am the first to admit that many are just plain greedy. This is just not the case however with a large percentage of them.

Those single mothers that are making it work as housekeepers are almost certainly living with their families (as is traditional for ALL single women in Costa Rica, they live with their families until they marry). For some single mom's, for a variety of reasons, it is no longer possible to live with their families and they don't really have any viable options.

For those that live on their own, it is simply impossible to maintain a household and support a Ch*ld on a housekeepers wages. In most cases rents alone are more than what a housekeeper can make in an entire month.

No doubt about that! If a guy can just keep it that way it works out great. Maybe you have to be a little selfish? I hope I'm not but I could be. Their K*ds are their problem. I don't throw extra money one girl's way because she has K*ds over one that doesn't. Frankly, I don't like doing girls with K*ds because it tends to take away from the pristine look I like but it is unavoidable in CR. However, you will run into some very doable girls that have K*ds.



I don't think it's the chicas he's down on, just that some guys trying to make working girls with K*ds a special circumstance as if they are all just poor victims who would definitely be doing something else if they didn't have K*ds. I think most who have K*ds and work in the business would be doing so anyway because most girls in CR have K*ds and no husband but don't work in the business... follow me?

Not real sure where that is coming from. Espressing an opinion like a gentleman. Calling them like I see it, not insulting anyone, and this cocksucker goes off like that. Don't assume things about me asshole!

Thirdworld,

I agree with you here. Nice post.

Whatever, I'm not getting into one of the CRT spats. Don't really care that much to do it. Go Phuck yourself pal. Don't really give a rat's ass of your interpretation of things.

I am not quite sure what all the hostility is about.

Why don't you guys kiss and make up?

Darn Pac55...making friends again are we?? LOL...
Gotta chime in cause, after all, I did start this madhouse of a thread. You both have points but gotta weigh in on the Pac55 side that making blanket statements just won't cut it with these girls.
There are soooo many different reasons and soooo many different kinds of girls that are doing 'the deed' now days it is impossible to write such a simple explanation as 'being lazy' or only wanting clothes or cell phones.
You gotta understand, once a girl gets used to the life she has when she makes double the average Tica salary, it's VERY tough for them to go back. Instead of saving money, it seems they just build up more bills to spend that money on.
Is it being lazy?? NO...working DR is hard work believe it or not. I mean would you want to screw you?? Not being harsh but think about it.
Is it for the K*ds?? Sometimes because they have gotten used to a certain lifestyle so now that is a norm for them and the only way a lot of them have to keep that upper-middle class Tica lifestyle is to continue to work.
I've found the reasons are multiple, change rapidly and rarely make a whole lot of sence. But if we look at this from their standpoint, gotta give them some credit.
For example, how many guys are working in Iraq?? It's all about the better money they can earn for their families. It's honest work (as is hooking in CR) and they can make more in a few months than most of their piers can in the states in years. Does that make them less of a person?? Less of a good provider??
No..these guys will lay their lives on the line to make a better future (or present) for their families. Much the same as the girls here. Should we be 'insulted' they do this for a living instead of something else?? I don't think so. So are the chicas lazy...crave all the goods the world has to offer and just do this to make themselves happy?
No...it makes them willing to do whatever it takes to make the cash they want their families to have. Don't see any difference in our beloved chicas. They do what they gotta do just like the rest of us.
In my time here, that is the one thing that really stands out. They are just like us with similar motivations. Just gotta try and see it from their viewpoint.
Just my two cents...not even sure it makes sence in the drunk state I'm in right now after a night with the boys at at CR strip club

Generalizations and blanket statements are acceptable. There are always exceptions factored in with such statements. For example, "hookers don't make good novias". Someone will want to argue with that... probably to justify the charges to Western Union and the fact that they have a hooker novia, but the collective experience of many over time tends to hold this statement out to be true.

"It's always about the money"... someone will want to argue with that probably to justify what they have created in their mind, nevertheless, it basically holds true... again the collective experience of many over time. Is there some chica in the DR, working as a hooker, who will do you for free cause she loves the sexo? Maybe, but the collective experience of many over time demonstrates you damn sure better have the cash if you want to get laid.

Some guys live in dreamland on this board. It doesn't take the collective experience of many over time to see that.

Some Generalization might have a level of validity, some more validity than others, however in this case I think we are pretty far off base.

While it might be "generally true" that it is always about that money (I have found a least one exception to this generalization, the chick just loves sex and money is a secondary benifit), the motivations behind what they want the money for varies widely, it is complex and is specific to each and every individual. In this regard there are many, many women that are deserving of a high level of respect because of the situation they have found themselves in, it is virtually impossible for a single mother that does not live with her family to support a Ch*ld on her own without living in absolute poverty.

There are many other women that are just in it for materialist reasons.

For many, many others (most perhaps) the motivations (for the money) fall someplace in the middle.

It this regard, generalizations just do not apply.

I'm going to completely disagree. This is where having hooker amigas that I don't sleep with comes in handy. My amigas don't believe this is an honorable line of work. They say they do it for the money. Can they get a job doing something else that they could tell their families about? Yes, they could. It would not provide them the standard of living they enjoy as hooking does though. I believe they are generally lazy. The idea that they do whatever it takes to make the cash they want their families to have is a poor justification for hooking. They don't see this life as a "good one". They all want out. There is a huge difference between "hooking be accepted" and "hooking being honorable".

To equate a "professional" using his skills to improve his standard of living and a hooker hooking to do the same thing is... like night and day. I can tell my family and friends what I do. My amigas lie like dogs about what they do. The goal is the same.... how we all arrive is not.

I'm having a conversation with my esposa/novia/amante DR bartender at a local eating joint 2 months ago. We talk about hooking. One bartender said to her "if you were fired tomorrow" what would you do? Without thinking she said "get another job". Now, could she hook and make alot of cash, oh yea, and that was the point the other bartender was making. Some, though, still hold to the concept of honor.

Hooking is not an honorable profession. That's what they choose to do though. It's not illegal. I have complete respect, but I believe it's not necessary to hook to get by and have a life that's good. To have a high standard of living in CR or Colombia.... you're gonna have to hook, but a high standard of living is not everything. My hooker amigas know that, but it hard to break the cycle.
