External Link/Members Only Worth a read lol, clearly a lot of sex workers aren't fans of us. If you're reading this and you have a plethora of bad reviews, I'm not trying to be harsh but you deserve the dusty phone.
A few highlights:
"Additionally, several sex workers tell me that UKPunting's posters use the site as a price-check and then have unrealistic expectations. They say that clients who use UK Punting "always barter about money", "go for the cheapest they can find" and "are all tight bastards who want to do things to girls that girls aren't comfortable doing". "
- Someone has had some shit reviews and is annoyed by it.
"For example, some members will use the site for blackmail, as one sex worker tells me: "I have personally been the victim of two members of that site trying to blackmail me for a free fuck. When I tell them to do one they go on there and write shit about you." " -
Yeah no, Admin and the rest of the board crack down hard on shit like that and we try to keep the reputation of the site positive as you know if stuff like that was allowed it would compromise the reliability of the website to it's users. We're all here because we want good service and want to look for WGs who offer that.
"UKPunting also demands that "Reviews must contain either a link, contact details or address," meaning you find examples like that of one reviewer recommending a "punt" on the basis of free parking nearby, posting her address, revealing her location and identity, and potentially putting her in serious danger."
- Yeah no, this shit is specifically monitored on the site because we care about keeping girls safe too. Too bad you didn't bother to actually do your research.
"Sex workers also tell me UKPunting is "demeaning to women", that its posters will treat them "like a piece meat", or will "abuse escorts"."
- No, we treat this like a business as does any WG with her head screwed on.
" Sex workers aren't explicitly banned from UKPunting, but several others tell me they have been after posting: "I was banned from the site for defending myself when I changed my prices," says one. "I was sworn at and called names." "
- If you were banned you deserved it, there are WGs who have used the site for years and never been banned. But touting for business is a big no-no.
" "They think they're always right about everything and theirs is the only view that matters," says another sex worker, Charlotte: "So they can say what they like about anything because they're hidden behind their IP address, then when a girl does challenge them on this she's a 'stupid whore' for what, standing up for herself?" "
Once again, clearly a scorned shit WG. Fucking lol.
"I logged on to UKPunting under an alias, posting in a thread asking members to comment on the sexism, racism and descriptions of sexual assault as detailed above. I was blocked."
- So you could go to the effort of creating an account but you couldn't be bothered to actually learn about the site and realise a lot of your claims about the dangers UKP pose are totally and utterly false?
" Because on the site it's not the law that's stigmatising, discriminating, insulting and stereotyping sex workers. It's the punters."
- Once again, we're treating it like a business, like a transaction. It's nothing more and nothing less. We're not the one's stereotyping members of the sexwork industry, you are by not doing any due diligence.
What a piece of shit article this is.
