HOW THE CORONAVIRUS IS AFFECTING THE ESCORT INDUSTRY

How the Coronavirus is affecting the escort industry

We’ve all been hearing about the big bad Covid-19 and the trail of disaster it’s left behind, as well as the gaping holes it’s made in today’s businesses. Unfortunately, due to the way it is transmitted, and of course, because of how devastating its effects are, it’s to be expected that the escort industry has also taken a devastating blow.

I say that, but in reality, from a financial and business point of view, mostly those who are careful during this period will feel drastic changes. We all know that not everybody is taking the precautionary measures to avoid contact with others, let alone people that are seeking some pleasure from those that would offer it for money.

We live in a world in which pleasure, regardless of how fleeting it may be, takes precedence. As such, we ignore the repercussions that may follow the risks we take. Well, at least we do so until they happen and we’re left wondering why we were ever so ignorant to begin with. This is what tends to await those in the industry that keep working during these times, as well as the clients that keep on coming.

Both parties involved are easy to empathize with. I mean, one is just trying to make a living by doing what they’re best at, and the other is just trying to enjoy life. But sometimes you have to think past those mundane concepts if you want to live well on the long run.

Consider changing jobs for a while

Given the somewhat global quarantine, even if the escort industry workers were to consider getting a different job, their options would be limited. But that doesn’t mean it would be impossible to find something else to do so you can earn a living during these trying times. For example, the workers at a Portland strip club, after it being forced to closed, found that they could continue making a living by delivering food for a while.

Now, if that’s not proof that humanity can adapt to anything, I don’t know what is. Regardless, if strippers can go from earning substantial amounts of cash from their job to getting paid a normal 9 to 5 salary, then escorts can do the same. In order to prevent the spread of this virus and minimize the casualties until a vaccine is found, we all have to do our part in keeping this a slow pandemic.

Even if you are to take these circumstances into consideration, I’m sure that a career change will feel like your world is turning upside down. Hell, you might even lose some loyal clients in the long run. But all of that can be fixed rather easily. What cannot be fixed so easily however, is the amount of people who you, as an escort, could infect.

The virus is usually transmitted easily through touching infected surfaces with your hands and then accidentally rubbing your face with them. At least this is the most common way. Think about how worse it can be given your line of work.

Find new ways to pleasure yourself

While this particular subject is more for the clients of the industry, it can apply to anybody. Although I understand that you would resort to an escort because it’s way more intimate than using toys or just your good old hand. It’s also much easier than getting a long-term girlfriend or even a one-night hook up. So, while it might be a tad bit more expensive sometimes, the benefits are definitely worth it.

But, what are you to do now? We’re in the middle of a pandemic and it’s really unwise to just go wandering around, especially towards an escort’s house. If, by chance, said escorts are still working, some of them are bound to have been in contact with infected clients. You don’t want to take that kind of risk now, do you? Of course, you don’t. Why would you?

Well, to stay safe, prevent the spread of the virus and also enjoy some sexual stimulation and pleasure, you have quite a few options to resort to. There is, of course, the classic right or left hand, that has always been there for you.

You also have quite a few options for toys in online stores that can make things more pleasurable and sometimes even more exciting. And then, to top it all off, you can do all of these things while browsing the internet for your favorite kind of porn.

Stay safe

Regardless of what you choose to do, whether it’s to stay safe at home or go out to either visit an escort or meet up with a client, there are precautions you must take. It’s a rather small set of measures, but nonetheless, they are crucial towards halting the spread of this pandemic.

While I understand that your sexual life would definitely be more satisfying and exciting if you kept to your habits, some things need to change for the time being. This applies to escorts too. It’s understandable that you don’t want your pockets to lose any of the profit that this business has to offer, but health and safety should be the priority here, everything else can wait.

You must remain in your homes for as long as possible. Only exit your house if it’s truly needed. Try avoiding direct contact or even being in close vicinity with other people. If you really must leave the house and go out in public, try your best to maintain a distance of at least 2 meters from other people.

Try paying attention and not directly touching any objects or surfaces that others have previously touched. It’s also advised that you avoid crowded places by all means. You should be careful and not touch your face, nose, mouth or eyes, especially if none of those have been cleaned properly. Whenever you can, make sure that you wash your hands and face with soap, and have some sanitizer with you at all times.
