I am a former stripper, AMA
  • I wouldn't know. I haven't kept up with the industry since I left.

  • What holiday destination is the most concerning?
  • I don't know if they specifically catered to women. All I know is that some where willing to do it with women and others weren't.

  • Your welcome.

  • What holiday destination is the most concerning?
  • It is. I used to go there all the time back in the late 80's/early 90's for the prostitution. It's pretty much legal over there. There's a lot of red light districts in Amsterdam you can visit that just exist out in the open. It's great. I stopped after a little bit once I found out about the legal consequences this could have but I still look back at it fondly.

  • Have you ever had to give up on a dream career?
  • Back when I was 18 I wanted nothing more then to be a nurse. I didn't have much going for me in terms of qualifications so becoming a normal nurse was out of the question so I decided to become a nurse in the military. I thought it would be easier and I would get to travel the world.

    I signed up and it turned out I was wrong. I sucked at basic training and following instructions. They did a background check on me and having gone to S.E classes wasn't a good look. They also did a psychological evaluation on me and it turns out I was a "deviant sociopath" so that wasn't a good look either.

    After a little bit I had to come to terms with the fact that I would never be a nurse. It was heartbreaking to do that. I had worked hard for so long just to be one and it really hurt to understand that no matter how hard I tried nothing would work.

  • It doesn't matter what age you lose your virginity.
  • As someone who lost their virginity aged 28 I understand a lot of what you're talking about.

  • "I don’t want to be insensitive, but are people really dying so fast these days? That sucks."

    Because there old. All of them are in there 60's, 70's and 80's.

    "You should stick around (if this isn’t a fake account)"

    Thanks, I will

  • Oh, that makes sense.

  • "Was there any early signs growing up?"

    Too many to count. I learn to speak at a later age then others. I wasn't able to read a book until I was 9. I always learnt slower then the other kids in my school and instructions and guides just didn't click.

    "What was going to Special Education classes like?"

    Very isolating. I couldn't be with any of friends and being special needs does single you out and make target for mockery. Not to mention it leaves a nasty stain on your record.

    "If you could change it would you?"

    Ever since I was a little girl all I've wanted to be is normal. Absolutely.

  • "I am very curious to know about how you found out about lemmy"

    I found out about it on Wikipedia and thought it sounded cool.

    "why you use it"

    I like talking to interesting people.

    "And why did you want to do an AMA."

    I have a unique experience and perspective I couldn't share anywhere else.

    "Also how has life been? How are you doing?"

    Hard. I'm at that age where friends and family start dropping like flies and all I can do is watch knowing I'm next. I keep myself busy. I watch films, I like to bake/cook, I cycle a lot, I love to find new websites and I have a tradition of going to the bars every Friday.

    "Has AI been any help?"

    Not really. I used it a few times when it was new not much after that.

    "You seem to have worked as an exotic dancer. How’s retirement like?"

    Only for a little bit. The last job I had before retirement was as a barmaid. Retirement is alright.

  • What about it made you laugh? Why did you think was funny? Not trying to be antagonistic or anything I'm just wondering.
