99% of the ladies I have met in this business are either heavy cigarette smokers and/or have alcohol problems and/or take all kinds of drugs to work. It gets worse with time just like any addiction. From my experience, most girls couldn't hide it (you could see from the behaviour and service) but in some other cases you would swear these girls are not high on anything... but you're wrong.
Some just hide/"control" it better than others (which isn't necessarily better...it's still an addiction to deal with personally...).
I am not saying ALL GIRLS in this industry have addictions but some of you guys are really disillusioned thinking you can read someone from one 60min meeting or two... or half a dozen
I think your statement is an overly broad, unsubstantiated and unfair characterization of Montreal escorts. It certainly does not correspond to my experience with agency and indy outcall escorts who advertise on MERB. I don't have any experience with streetwalkers and Backpage/Annonce123 escorts so I can't say anything about them, but I am doubtful that your incredibly broad generalization is an accurate description of them either.
We don't have any reliable statistics on levels of cigarette smoking, alcohol abuse and drug consumption among Montreal escorts. You citing "99% of the ladies I have met in this business" is meaningless. It's particularly meaningless because your "99%" includes any kind of substance use from tobacco to alcohol to various drugs. I wouldn't be surprised that 99% of the ladies you "have met" have at least tried one or more of those substances at some point, but it is a very big leap from the "have tried" level of consumption to the level of having an addiction and needing those substances in order "to work."
I'm sure you know some escorts but how many do you know well enough to know whether they have a substance abuse problem? 10, 100, 1000? Do you work in a substance abuse facility that treats only escorts? Even if you did, that would be a self-selected sample of already addicted escorts.
You casually dismiss the experience of clients on MERB because, as you say, we can't "read someone from one 60 minute meeting or two." Though I can't "read someone" in the sense of knowing what their personality and lives are really like, I can generally tell over the course of an hour whether a person with whom I am interacting is a smoker, drunk or high on drugs. It's not that hard. Maybe you are suggesting that addicted escorts somehow manage to appear completely sober for hours a day when they are meeting clients but then they gorge on cigarettes, alcohol and drugs when they are off duty. And how is that you get to observe them doing so when they're not working and indulging their addictions? And if, as you say, escorts need their addictive substances in order to work, then they should be showing up to work drunk or high.
Sorry, Tina, while I respect the fact that you are a working escort and must know some inside information about the business, your characterization of the "99%" is such a ridiculous exaggeration that I don't think that it contributes any useful information to this discussion.
