Questioning the stigma surround the sex industry. Photo-documentary project.

[Socialdoc]

Look, before I start to explain. I know that many will uncomfortable with the idea of someone creating a photographic documentary, so this won't be for everybody. Privacy is an important aspect of everyone's life and due to the nature of punting, it's even more important. To have someone from the 'outside' to come in and ask questions is daunting. I'm fairly open minded to the idea of punting, sex is one of our main and most powerful desires. It only makes sense that an industry would be formed around it, a self-regulated community is much safer for both the provider and clients compared to the other alternatives.

I'm a documentary photographer based in Cardiff and I am currently acquiring a degree from USW, Cardiff. I'm creating a photo-documentary project on the sex industry in south Wales and England, from the people's point of view. I'm focusing on the relationship between the client and the practice as a project because I want to question the stigma that surrounds this subject, it surprises me considering how much influence sex has on our society and that it is a basic drive for many people.

I'm looking for anyone who would be interested in being involved, people surrounding the Cardiff and Bristol area would be great. To begin with it can be something as simple as a quick chat over the phone or email, what ever you feel most comfortable with.

I am a male student.

Here we go again. 

Indeed, these people whether genuine or not love coming on here, in a million years I wouldn't have any dealings with such people.

If you really want to gain some insight, I have a better idea: make a booking yourself. Ideally with an escort who permits filming (though that may cost you extra). Shit, write a review afterwards, just for good measure. Then you can stick it in your thesis.

Go gonzo, bro.

So you want photographic evidence of people who use a service that's based on discretion? You clearly haven't done much research into this subject area. 

As MoTToM says book a session for yourself and record it. That way you'll get more marks for using a first-hand source of information, unless there's a problem with doing that yourself?

Socialdoc. You're not the first person to come here asking for interviews and whatnot and usually no matter what is offered the story always comes out that we're a disgusting bunch of creeps who pray on vulnerable women so you'll have to excuse our cynicism. Doesn't mean that we're a bunch of horrible fuckers but we always get a bad press so the assumption is that you'll be no different.

Hope that helps

You might get a bit further if you stated who you are (after all, you've nothing to hide, have you), what your previous work / achievements are, and how you are qualified to carry out this work. Oh, and also exactly what is the hypothesis you are trying to prove? Before anyone here is going to even consider talking to you, you're going to have to explain exactly who you are and what your views are - and why you want to be involved
Without that no-one is going to trust you. Even if you provide it you may still not be trusted

You're right.... I have been somewhat vociferous today 

Don't panic, I'll be all cuddly and loving tomorrow

Reassuring you're "fairly open minded" about punting.

Well, to be honest, I think he got off lightly.
You are all going soft.

[scutty brown]

Interesting that he's not been back to answer any of the posts

[Keema]

So being a university project you'll have taken this through the ethics committee?

He or she keeps popping back on to read the thread but hasn't got the bollox to post a reaction 

[Horizontal pleasures]

I wonder if he has 2 accounts here, (from 2 different networks or devices) the other one as a punter?

I've been reading all the comments. I'm working on multiple projects at the moment, many will be finished soon. I hope to create a post within the next week, starting to address many of the concern's mentioned in the previous post.

Try contacting real punting, they're happy to film their time with escorts. I think it's doubtful any regular guys would be up for this.

Thank you, I'll have a look into that.
