This is legit study it is for research and is confidential I did the interview a few months ago. More than happy to help with anything to do with the industry. Like the Johns Voice survey thingy but not as long.

I do believe Susi is aware of it.

Of course, I meant no offence with my comment. Some people in the industry are quite open about their participation, while for others, it's a major secret. I'm sure that $25 is not gonna make anyone 'come out of the closet' but, for those that don't mind exposing themselves, I'm in agreement that it's a worthy cause!

I'm there.............

It happens all the time,

it is not there money, it is most likely some government research grant.

People are doing marketing studies all the time.

Universities and focus groups are doing studies all the time.

Im surprised there is not more, with the legalitiy of prostitution before the supreme court.

WOW!

I was happy to lend my voice to such an important cause. If we do not stand up for our rights and get the information out there how do we expect to change things?

I completed the study within a week of it being announced by Susie here on PERB and would have gladly done it for FREE. The woman who did the research is awesome and down to earth.
