This headline needs more UK English. Maybe toss a fag in your boot or something.

Maybe because these are fine vocations for those that want them, and the UK is not run by repressed sex-fearing religious fundamentalists?

Just a guess.

An employment agency is trying to fill openings? What is this world coming to?

"But there is now clear evidence that some applicants are being asked to perform "sexual services". "

So? There's a simple word: "No". Walk out the door, leave, get another job. If you're a programmer and are told that you're migrating from PERL to Python, you better learn or quit.

Let's be clear on something here: If I were single, and had the choice between being a male escort farking ugly, wrinkly old women or cleaning toilets, I'd take the male escort role. I'm sure that lots of women do it for that reason - that a day of giving BJs earns a farking lot more money than working in McDonalds.

HEY! You want a job or not?

So how does a government help wanted ad read? Needed, young blond with big tits, tight ass, long legs and who can suck a golf ball through a garden hose or the chrome off a ball hitch. No sexual contact required but it will increase your pay level geometrically.

The problem with that statement would be IIRC is that the UK prefers to make selling "it" legal but buying "it" is illegal. On top of that, it seems rather amusing since last I read, there was a push by some UK politicians to get "farking after one or both parties have had even one alcoholic beverage" defined as "rape". Well, namely if the woman has had even one beer or glass of wine then its rape, for men well who cares about them, they can sod off.

I don't get it.

Short, squat little fellas with stumpy little legs and a great big long nose... I could tame one of those. They seem pretty tame to begin with.

What about land sea lions? I tame them.

There's always a need for cottage cheese thighs, bad teeth and sagging fun bags... Thank God the women don't look like that!

Maybe they should check w/ the Tudor Employment Agency?

the reason this is a problem (by UK standards) is that if you refuse to go for an interview or accept a position that you're offered you can lose your benefits (welfare). Not everyone is comfortable with the idea that someone would be pressured or forced to work in a lap dancing club or similar let alone work as a call girl (massage parlour / escort agency). State sponsored pimpin' not totally ok even in pretty liberal places.

If you want to do that great, if not is the states place to force you to? Also if you accept a job then quit because you really just can't handle it it takes a long time before you can get any money again.
