It is GOOD money when you need to go to college and/or grad school.

We had it; we flaunted it. We made good money. We had fun. Tons of fun.

So selling sex not bad as long as not touched right?

I am the former cocktail-waitress -turned -tax lawyer poster here.

Some women use their looks to get ahead, some use their brains. My sister and I had both. Guess you didn't?

DP but in a world that hypersexualizes women, we are all selling sex whether we want to or not. Some of us are selling a chaste, virginal brand (the hijab and abaya are even considered sexy because they are mysterious and suggest a very exclusive product). But you won't be regarded as less sexual than a Hooters woman since you're in Ann Taylor. Just marketed differently. You're not better than a woman in revealing clothing.

Yikes
The hijab and abaya women are militant, have made a virtue out of submissiveness, most likely have their body full of bruises as their husbands beat them

So did you catch your man cheating with a Hooters waitress? Otherwise, I can't think of a reason to activate a seven year old thread.

This described job = 1 step up from prostitution
Hooters waitress = 2 steps

Less than 1 step if you ask me. Some of the responses really surprise me. It’s like women think selling sex/look is okay when they do it. It’s not okay if some other women do it
