Jimmy, you have always thought that what I post should be taken with a large pinch of salt, even back in the 2000s on Punting Zone. We punt, and approach life, differently. Just because my style is not your style doesn't give either of us a monopoly on The Truth. I don't post a lot here, but when I do I post what I believe to be true, from experience, and don't I push any imaginary 'party line'.
The forum on which I post most is indeed T'Other Place, (Of those 25,000 or so posts the vast majority have been on the word game boards, but yes I enjoy the place.) The Admin and Mods include SPs and blokes. There's hardly any 'paid sex chat' on there, as we are mostly friends in real life as well as matey on the Board. And we don't talk about other Boards much either unless a new member pushes such a topic or brings baggage with them. This 'THEY are our enemies' bit is past its sell-by, and is pretty much garbage. As far as I can see you are still on the Member list there.
Now about this tax thing. Of course I'm not saying that every prostitute pays tax, but what I say about knowing a fair few who do is not what you call 'nonsense'. Over the past ten or eleven years I have got to know some ladies pretty well. This covers paid sex encounters and unpaid social ones. During this unpaid contact I have listened to escorts talking to each other about sorting out their year-end tax submissions, like discussing allowable and non-allowable expenses, and have occasionally helped with the paperwork. And of course this isn't part of paid encounters: they're too professional to use the time that way and I wouldn't accept it, either.
