Isn escort just another word for prostitute?
more less Strictly speaking, no. It’s sort of hard to have standard definitions since each individual in the business defines herself using whatever terminology she deems appropriate. Although I offer more detailed definitions in the book, for conversational purposes, I define an escort as a hired companion who can offer both companionship and sexual intimacy as needed. I define prostitution as a strict money-for-sex transaction in which the provider has no interest in extending the relationship beyond sexual activity. Another point to keep in mind is that street prostitution, the most common form of prostitution that people are aware of, is often reported to be only 10% of all prostitution. The other 90% can encompass obvious sex-for-money transactions such as “massage” parlors and plenty of grey area, such as mistress arrangements or escorts. Prostitution is a very elastic term, which is why I give a particular definition for escorts.
