What's the difference between a escort and a hooker?

The word "hooker" was perceived as too negative, so they started calling themselves "escorts" instead.

It's just that simple.

Your question is like asking the difference between somebody "dying" and somebody "passing away". There is no difference, but the second way sounds gentler in polite society.

About $75

you go to a hooker, eg to a brothel
an escort comes to you (home/hotel/..)

then why do they charge more?

An escort you might bring to a party before fucking her. She looks good, tries to have a fun personality and more often than not she'll fuck you at the end of whatever it is you're doing. You may have to work this detail out beforehand. Just leave the money on the nightstand and she'll pick it up. Nice and sly-like. You might even believe she likes you the next morning. She doesn't. A hooker can look like a stinky crackhead and smell like one too, she won't accompany you to a party and you wouldn't want her to anyway. There's nothing to work out here. She's gonna suck your dick for an agreed upon price but not before she's got her cum-slimed hands on that money first, and she doesnt like you and you know it. No pretending, so to speak. Pick your poison. Escorts cost a lot more.

>They are the same thing except legally prostitution is illegal and escorts are not illegal.

Yeah, only the poor people version of things is illegal.

Hooker is sex only. An escort is your girlfriend for a night.

>but do they offer the same service?

Theoretically, you could get an escort just to be an evening companion for a social function. Like to a company dinner, or something, if you wanted to save yourself the embarrassment of going alone. Watch the movie Pretty Woman -- that's a case where an escort really was being hired as just a social companion.

But that's a pretty rare use of escorts. Most of the time "escort" is just a high-class name for a "hooker".

Came here to post it. I was late

not always. I have been an escort on and off for over ten years.

Many people expect sex is part of the deal but I am always up front that I am there in company only

>have fucked a couple of clients mind you

Lots assume you are keeping up a front and still push for it anyway

My main work was middle age women making ex's mad thinking they bagged a toy-boy.
>and it works. I have fixed dozens of relationships.

>I can play any role/background/job as long as I have a few hours to research the jist of it.

damn you

Escorts are hotter and classier, and can be paid for an evening rather than just sex, they're also cleaner. They do cost a lot more.
