I found an interesting, albeit loooooong, article of a guy who takes a couple of prostitutes out on a mini-golf date. The article comes from the U.S., but I was fascinated by the number of similarities with the Philippines.

Finally, I found Britney. Her ad said: "MIDWESTERN BRITNEY/Need to pay off student loans. $275/hr." The photo was of a surfer-blond woman with smooth, golden skin.

Over the phone, we agreed to meet at Boomer's in Dania Beach for an afternoon date and a winsome round of minigolf. When I arrive, Britney is removing wads of fast-food wrappers from the back seat of her Camry. She's tall and blond but rougher than her photo. She's wearing a blue Abercrombie & Fitch T-shirt, a white linen skirt, and Ed Hardy flip-flops on her exceptionally large feet. She never takes the Louis Vuitton bag off her shoulder or the Chanel sunglasses off her head.

I find myself wondering what kind of guy would pay almost $300 for an hour with this woman. Then I feel guilty.

When I read that portion, I could not help but snicker. Haven't we all, even just once, encountered such a situation? Haven't we met some PSP^? who claims that she is a gorgeous class A escort and when you see her you hesitate to fork out the P5,000 you agreed on but still go one with it because you say to yourself "What the heck?"

And there are some lessons to be learned. Or at least, lessons to be reminded of.

"Escorts don't do anything for free," she explains as we line up our balls at the beginning of the first hole. "Who's to say you aren't some guy just like all the other weirdos out there but your role-play fantasy is to play a reporter doing an interview?"

Hmmm. That's someone's fantasy?

Nobody wants to get ripped off and give anyone anything for free when she could be getting something, she says. "Time is money in this business."

Remember that when a PSP calls or texts you, saying that she misses you and that she aches for your body.

The article also elaborated on the difference between a GFE^? and a PSE^?, something that I had written a few days ago. Such acronyms, including BBBJ^? and DATY, are common, but I have now learned a couple of new ones, like LFK (light French kissing) and DFK (deep French kissing).
