Yes, I understand that is a clear case of 'outing' because that's how I define 'outing'.

Is it considered outing to refer to people's different handles on various forums? Example - if a SP is 'Jane' on cerb and 'funnylady' on t*rb.

I've successfully bartered for services with clients. Sometimes I initiated the trade and sometimes the client suggested it first if they knew I needed help. Worked out really well every time.

Committee meetings are set to resume on September 9th.

Thanks again Patrick! :D Here's a couple sites that teach how to set up an online petition. http://www.change.org/petition http://www.petitionbuzz.com/ It could be done with separate petitions on each board/ad site, or by posting links on each site leading to one petition on a host site. Some sites won't allow links to other industry sites though, so having separate ones might be the only way to do it. I figured it wouldn't hurt to present the idea and get the brilliant minds (like Samantha's) thinking about it. Edit - I wonder if the Dept. of Criminology would be interested in helping set something up to accompany their research? Does anyone have contacts there?

Thanks for posting Patrick! We can't prove how many woman are being trafficked, but we can reach all the SP's who advertise online and get an idea of how many in the industry aren't being exploited. What if we were to post a carefully worded online petition thread on all the industry site forums that would allow us to? We could ask all the Indy and agency SP's who are working of their own free will to post in the thread as an electronic signature using their working name. SP's enter and exit the industry constantly, so keep the threads running for months, years, and and see how many name we accumulate. When we reach a significant number combined from all the sites, we contact a major news agency and give them the results, or give the results to crime studies like the ones mentioned above ... Think of how many thousands of SP's we could get to sign on the various review boards and ad sites across the country. Not many people would bother to create handles and personas just to fake a name on the petition, but we'd just have to accept it's gonna happen. Only SP's can sign the petition, no spam posts allowed in the threads. I'd be willing to work on this with someone who knows the legal jargon . "I, the undersigned, do solemnly swear that I am working as a SP of my own free will ..." whatever we want them to swear to. We could draft a letter to site admins explaining our motives for the petition and get permission to post it in forums wherever SP's advertise.

The hearing has been re-scheduled for June 13. "2013-04-25 Order by, Ro, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: Any attorneys general intervening on constitutional questions shall serve and file their factum and book of authorities no later than May 30, 2013. IT IS HEREBY FURTHER ORDERED THAT: The date of the hearing for this appeal has been re-scheduled to June 13, 2013. Granted" http://www.scc-csc.gc.ca/case-dossier/cms-sgd/dock-regi-eng.aspx?cas=34788 Is there any way we could conduct a nation wide online census of SP's to determine how many are in this industry voluntarily compared to being forced to do it? Or an online petition that Indy's could sign to indicate that they're working by free choice? If tens of thousands of SP's could somehow communicate as a group it would have an impact on the media, the general public, and hopefully the legal system.

I came here to post this and you already did! :) The amount of useful information in these articles is simply staggering and I'm deeply grateful to those who did the research and to Samantha for bringing it to our attention. Here's the Supreme Court website showing preparations for June 12/13 "2013-03-07 Appeal hearing scheduled, 2013-06-12" http://www.scc-csc.gc.ca/case-dossier/cms-sgd/dock-regi-eng.aspx?cas=34788

Whenever I have pussy farts, I always feel like I need to mention, 'that came from my pussy', so my partner doesn't think I let an actual fart go during sex. :icon_biggrin:

Kelowna, BC is spectacular if you can afford it. Four season playground with world class skiing at Big White or Silver Star, zillions of golf courses, a beautiful lake, miles and miles of accessible wilderness to explore in the surrounding area, good shopping, many great places to eat. It's a favourite for many professional athletes to live in during the off season and a great spot for vacation homes for wealthy folks from all over the globe. More millionaires per capita than most other Canadian cities. It has an international airport and is a convenient distance to Vancouver or Calgary. I could go on and on, lol. Lived there for 25 years before moving to the Vancouver area.

Every once in a while I'll get a text that says, 'Hey', a few minutes later, 'available?', then a half dozen more within a short period of time, with an impatient, '????' if I don't get right back to them. I finally figured out that it's usually younger guys doing this and realized it's a generation gap issue. I think it's normal for them to send dozens of casual one word text messages back and forth to their friends all day long, and assume that I have nothing better to do than read and respond to every one they send me.

Breadmakers are great for making pizza dough or dough for dinner rolls, cinnamon buns, etc. too. Does all the mixing for you, then form it into whatever you're making, and bake.
