Dennis debating at Oxford...

So my boss, Dennis Hof, is debating legalized prostitution at Oxford.  I don't know much about the debate, or what he's said, but I commend him.  He really sticks up for his girls and his family.  Here's my take.

The first time I learned about the Bunny Ranch, it was on Tyra's show a couple of years ago.  I was watching Tyra because a good friend was over and wanted to watch it.  I'd never heard Tyra speak before in my life, but I thought everything that came out of her mouth was biased, black and white, and hypocritical, considering her life.  She was criticizing the girls for taking their clothes off for money.

Take 3 steps back there, buddy.  My first memory of Tyra was as a young girl in the 90's.  Tyra was on the cover of a Sports Illustrated, pulling down her swimsuit bottom.  I remember asking my dad, "Why is she taking them off?"  and my dad replying, "Uhhh, because she doesn't like them."

Anyway, I just find it really hypocritical - the whole situation.  If prostitution is illegal, why are sugar daddies not illegal?  Why is a loveless marriage not illegal?  Why is buying a girl a drink at a bar and wanting sex ok, but paying for sex is not ok?  What's the damn difference?  Why is it ok for Tyra to make millions for sexual modeling and sexual exploitation of her own body?  Does Tyra point fingers at her own industry and work to stop the common practice of "fucking the right people" to get to the top?  Easy for her to say.  She was discovered, and worked very hard I'm sure...but seriously, does she think anyone can do what she did?  We don't all look like her.  We don't all have those opportunities in life.  I may be here, but I realize that.

Dennis is easy to point fingers at.  I get it.  But we are safe here.  We don't have to do a single thing that we don't want to do. I can leave whenever I want.

It comes down to legitimization - and everyone is here for different reasons.  And everyone has different justifications.

I really don't feel like it's manipulation...most of the girls here will tell it like it is.  We are actresses in a way, but in others, not.  I really enjoy people.  Someone who takes the time to get to know me and enjoy their time with me is welcome to spend time with me.  But I'm not very competitive and I'm not catty.  I can hold a conversation about almost anything.  And I LIKE it.  There are aspects that are hard (harhar) but that's like any job.

One thing we aren't, however, is a house full of the "most emotionally abused women."  I haven't met any of them, they must be invisible.  Or I, the people watcher, must be blind.
