No.

A long time ago I could get either a h/j or a shag for 20 though. Never known anything cheaper than that.

Fucked a stripper once for a £1 in the hat.
Finished off  to a round of applause.
Over 25years ago when you could go out on a tenner.

[James999]

Probably just say a fiver in case the tax man / benefits get to hear about it

OWO used to be an extra £5 in some parlours about 15 years ago but even that went up to £10 about 10 years back.
Perhaps the problem isn't universal credit but the fact she can't buy the kids food after she has spent all her cash on essentials such as rip off sky subscriptions 

[Jeremy]

The entire thing reads like a bullshit sob story, I have no sympathy for people who abuse the system like this, they only end up creating more hoops for genuine claimants to have to jump through.

[Willyed]

You can in the red light districts in Liverpool, most of the street walkers are in need of any cash to fund their drug addiction!

Got offered a BJ for 5 euros in Benidorm.   https://www.ukpunting.com/Smileys/kolobok/rolleyes.gif      :rolleyes:Said I would consider it if she offered 10 euros.  https://www.ukpunting.com/Smileys/kolobok/biggrin.gif

Absolute BLX.
It was probably a £5 in the '60's

[tesla]

I think my first punt in 1979 was a tenner

[LLPunting]

Any woman selling vaginal sex for a fiver isn't just under the duress of paying for a little food.  There's more to the story than this woman being a struggling mother from Portugal.  Level of education?  Abuse history?  Substance abuse?  Mental health before becoming a streetwalker the first time round (not necessarily here in UK)?

Anyone capable of being a responsible cashier in a shop or waitress or (office) cleaner and able to read and understand the job ads and classifieds would find more profitable sex work, whether in a massage parlour or a brothel, let alone set-up in AW or its like.  If they had a smartphone and adult content lock disabled then a quick Google and an hour of research would have them able to set up as a 100+ ph SP presuming they had the nerve to place an ad.  Otherwise they could answer any number of ads for house cleaners or "house cleaners" and home assistants.

I read that article and thought it was a right pile of shit. She could probably earn way more than that by going on cam if she had a laptop and wifi; even if she was not popular on the site she worked from. Something is very amiss with this article, unless up north outside of london is nothing but barren wastelands  .

It serves the narrative of the righteous moralisers trying to ban prostitution.  That doesn't require rigorous rationale or genuine compassion and understanding for her situation.

[sparkus]

This was front page story on BBC News today but the case cited was £40 for oral in exchange to keeping schtum about shoplifting.  Not exactly the most earth-shattering of revelations as a) I've heard of this happening years ago (rough girls at secondary school boasting about being let off by store detectives for doing exactly that) and b) it's part of the plot for 'I, Daniel Blake'.

[Terryray]

   im 76 now, i can remember  getting it in Ipswich  for £2 10 shillings  (£2 50) still punting occasionaly

[Strokemeplease]

I paid £4 for my first punt in Sheffield in 1971. £3 for the fuck and another £1 for a full strip. It wasn't just my first punt, it was my first fuck.

Great to see someone like you still punting. Gives many of us hope that we too will still be punting in years to come. You dont appear to have been out in the last 3 years is this the case or do you have a regular

[joe diddley]

Still can in the Soho walkups.

[sparkus]

I can remember a local internet forum railing about how easy it was to get street girl sexual favours around Lordship Lane for "less than a box of fags" 10 years ago.

[jesse4585]

Yes - only once, had an offer of full sex for £5 about 7 years back.  She didn't look like a whore, young but slightly plump,  only average looks, didn't take her up on it as had a FWB thing at the time. Happened on a residential street near Slough.

It's became less common recently as I don't go out as much these days, but from about 2000 - 2015 I used to get approached by women offering sex about once every two years.  Except the one time though, it was always for a bit more than a fiver, or they didn't specify the price.  Mostly the approaches happened in broad daylight,  & not in RL districts AFAIK.   I guess this happens to me more than some of you mainly as I walk a lot & rarely use car; also as I have an approachable/friendly demeanour & a punterish look (balding) etc.

As to the survival sex story, I find that entirely believable.  There's lots of reports out there tracking over 100,000 suicides & deaths due to benefits cuts since the Tories got in.  Some women are always gong to sell their bodies before it gets that far. (Yeah there's food banks but those can't always give everything a person needs)

They're in a minority, but even among young women there's still some out there who aren't internet savvy, they don't know the professional ways to sell sex.

From a punters perspective it's annoying as by definition the girls who don't know the market price for sexual services are not going to know how to market themselves online, & sometimes won't even know where their local red light district is, if they even have one.   So sometimes blind luck is the only way to link up with them...

[Dipper]

 

Hmmm. Sounds believable.

[LLPunting]

Barring oppression by religious regimes it seems that any woman born since the 80s with fairly unfettered access to the Web and Western media/entertainment can be ignorant of how to use the internet to find work and info about the sex industry.  Also any stories in the print media (news and gossip/women's interest) would give exposure and leads.  Perhaps such deprivation is found in some poverty areas of Africa, S America and Central or South Asia but elsewhere?
There would have to be some pretty active denial of access to prevent a woman from encountering these avenues of information.  Let alone isolation from gossip amongst females wherever they may be encountered and socialised with.

That's good logic and no doubt true for the vast majority of young women.

So the thing is, even for native born Brits,  about 10% have an IQ of 85 or below,  some have learning disabilities that makes it extra difficult to learn from the written word, or even just a phobia of the internet as they get bullied there a lot.  As you say some of these women will make up for their lack of net-knowledge from spoken gossip, but not all will have friendship circles where that happens.  Even if just 1% are in this boat,  that's still tens of thousands of women who don't know the market price for sex & aren't able to quickly find it out. In fairness though, only a fraction of them will be desperate enough to try selling at any one time.

In some rare cases there's probably more to it than financial desperation as well.

Hmm...When you put it like that, it reminds me of the recent review of the gaping anal streetwalker/random woman in south london all for £30.

Accounting for inflation, I reckon that's still less than a tenner in today's money

This is it, once you reduce down to the exceptional cases who might manifest the reported situation it looses credibility as the general case for WGs.  Screaming about the injustice of their victimisation by pimps is a distraction from the victimisation by the state in its failing to educate, mentor and protect people with special needs, whether education, abuse or mental health ones.
A woman with the capacity to sell a trick for 40+ quid, whether it be a 5 min quickie or a 3 hour marathon still only has to turn 2 of them a day to be exceeding the living wage.  Even in the London rent market you can get a comfortable flatshare in a reasonable gaff for 30-40 a night (above the standards of many ordinary workers).  Reports are that people in London are spending 2/3rds or more of pay on rent so said "cheap" WG is already on a winner.

This reads like the biggest pile of shit ever.

So your pleasant demeanour and bald head prompt women to approach you in the street and offer cheap sex ?  Not while you're awake, sonny 

And 100,000 deaths due to austerity and benefits changes ?  Would love to see a reliable source for that story (p.s. Momentum election leaflets don't count).

[jesse4585]

@LLP,  yep, 100% agree with your last post.

Comprehension skills not your strong point Fisher?  I said the main reason is as I walk a lot, rather than drive. You'll be impressed to know that's partly for health, partly as I believe in global warming.   

At least two of the approaches started  as basic begging. After I gave then 1 or 2 quid, some of these lasses moved on to propositioning me for sex, perhaps sensing I'm a soft touch.  (which I sometimes am.)   If you guys really can't believe that used to happen about once per 2 years, then possibly you don't get out much.

As for a reliable source for the 100,000+  deaths, it takes 2 seconds to get abundant sources.  I'm going to let you search for them yourself, as I suspect you need the practice. 

[James999]

I believe in global warming.

It's not called that this week, it's called climate change 

It's been around for a long time, it's why we're not living in the ice age or why dinosaurs don't roam the earth, and that all happened before the invention of the Toyota Prius

FYI - approaching likely looking punters and begging for money is a standard alternative strategy for street hookers , ive experienced it countless times. Around heathrow begging hooking still goes on and slough used to be quyite a hot spot for street hooking , whereabouts in slough did these offers of sex happen.

[stewthescrew]

About £10 in Bangkok 1978 she stayed all night for that as well really cheap 40 years ago.

[jesse4585]

@James, I feel honoured you posted a somewhat friendly joking post at me,  was expecting one of your cutting one liners. 

@Fisher, sorry if my last reply was too sarcastic, in fairness right wingers can't be blamed too much for being suspicious of us Lefties, quite a bit of what's posted by left wing journalists is admittedly nonsense.

Cheers for the info Cotton.  Most of the approaches I've had have been in London.  The two approaches near Slough happened in side streets close to Langley High St.  Only one of them begged first. The £5 lass didn't beg - she was who I had in mind when I said there may sometimes be more to it than financial desperation. My sense was she had mixed motives.  Extremely rare that a man who is average looking at best gets approached for casual sex, but if you are out & about enough, it does happen.

[ClubbingDJ]

Sex for £5?!

It would cost you more on the return Uber trip to the clinic afterwards....

[Dipper]

Can’t wait to go for a walk around and get approached for random street sex by beggars later. 

[JontyR]

Over a decade ago now but I was walking back home one evening skirting on the edge of a red light district in a northern town and there was a girl touting for business. From a distance she looked perfectly presentable but as I walked past I saw the state that she was in. Naroctics had robbed any quality of life from this wretch.

She made a mumbled enquiry as to whether I was open to offers and I declined. When I was walking off down the street she shouted after me...."I'll do you for a tenner."

Poor cow.


No, I didn't

[Londoner2000]

 I’ve done it for a tenner  numerous times.  I’m sure if I bargained hard could have got it for £8 maybe at a stretch 5. Regardless  I know a girl quit recently, 2012 she was the first year medical student  Who said a couple of years before that she went down on a guy in a park for a fiver. 

[sparkus]

I once got a HJ for a tenner in Chinatown.

[Mr Sinister]

£20 is the cheapest I've had in the UK, I had a regular thing with one WG, late 40's size 16/18 big tits with a dusty phone so she was happy with whatever I gave her. She was independent so had bills to pay on her place. Great fuck she was, shame she retired, I saw her ome time after doing a shop but she was with someone so I smiled and walked on.

[django0700]

streetwalker in wales offered me full sex for £20 (declined by me) as I did not believe it to be true.
£22 (soho) in the UK for me..
worldwide definitely have had for below a tenner especially in south and east asia.

[Golden Hind]

Cheapest I've paid was £6.5 for about 2 hours, this was Africa though.

[oap69]

I paid £5 for my first blow job in 1980.
Blonde lady at a basement flat in Nevern Square, London who advertised in a phone box.

[RogerBoner]

About £10 in Bangkok 1978 she stayed all night for that as well really cheap 40 years ago.

2019 price for Long Time (overnight) is only 1500 baht, under £40. So that doesn't sound cheap but she gave you a memorable experience. 

[sparkus]

Cheapest I've paid was £6.5 for about 2 hours, this was Africa though.

I'm sure you could have got a quickie by Lake Victoria for half a basket of fish as well.

Pretty sure the blytheswood square street girls in glasgow in the 80s charged a fiver
