How Can I Detach My Emotions From Sex ?

The only person who can ultimately decide is anonymous#1
if he/she wants to have sex/time with someone for sex then who is anyone to judge this?
everyone has different views, beliefs and ideas of what is right and wrong.
But but what is right for me or any other on here may not be right for anonymous #1.
personally if that's what they want to do then go for it.
Make sure you have strict limits in place with yourself and make sure you stick to them and don't let anyone sway you from them..

There is an article in today's Times saying that 100,000 students have gone into sex work.

More than 100,000 students — about one in 20 — are working in the sex industry to pay their way through university, according to the first significant research into the issue.
Lack of money is the biggest factor driving students into sex work, the national survey concludes, as undergraduates struggle to cope with living costs in the era of £9,000-a-year tuition fees.
More male than female students are making money through sex-related occupations, confirming an investigation by The Times last week which found that young men were performing on pornographic websites.
Most students were involved with “indirect” sex work: the five main activities for men were being a “naked butler”, stripping, selling sexual services on the internet, erotic dancing and performing in porn films.
For women, the most common occupations were selling sex online, glamour modelling, erotic dancing, stripping and selling sex on phone chat lines. A handful of students also worked as drivers and escort managers.
The Student Sex Work Project findings are revealed today after three years of research involving 6,750 students. It found that 4.8 per cent of respondents had worked in the sex industry. More than half just wanted to cover basic living expenses, and nearly two thirds were motivated by earning money to fund their lifestyle. Forty-five per cent wanted to avoid debt.

So the OP is hardly alone. If they can do it so can she, I suspect. Why not, who cares about the judgmentalism of some of the people on this thread?

Lol. If your partner one day said they were a prostitute, would you be okay with it?

'Honey it's okay to trade in your sexuality if it makes you happy'

Its not true that everyone has a past there are plenty of people who dont and plenty who wait until marriage! It's also not true that in every single adult relationship in the world people dont concern themselves with a prospective partners past. Personally I would want a complete sexual history and I'd be prepared to give my complete sexual history also. If someone I would potentially be in a relationship with straight up told me that they dont want to discuss their previous relationships then that's their right to keep it to themselves, and personally I wouldnt want to form a relationship with them but look for someone else in that case. If someone would lie then I would feel really abused by that person because I'd trust that I'm being honest with them and they are with me.

My way of dealing with people like you is to treat you with the same disgust as you show people you don't even know. Calling them 'cheap, dirty, and disgusting', and referring to men who hire them as 'scum' are just some of vile uninformed comments you've made on this thread. Said comments are to be categorised as the naive, inexperienced, and above all worthless, comments that they are.

I'm confused as to why bitternsweet is posting if he is clearly not hoping to offer any advice relevant to my op.

*reported* i want him banned from this thread.

1) OP's not my partner, she's completely free to work in whatever capacity she chooses without receiving judgement from people who think they're morally superior

Exactly my point.... It's not a new concept and is purely a personal choice
