yes they do it out of choice and probably love it most of the time, there are some women that do like it you know? also they probably enjoy exploiting saddos on sex lines as well.

 and why not?? using what you have is entrepreneurial and good on them not relying on benefits.

That's an absolutely disgusting comment. Liking sex and getting paid for it are two entirely different things.

 

I had thought about reporting  your post to the mods but I think it better to let everyone know what kind of a person you are

This thread is about Universal credit and suggesting that it is good that they don't rely on benefits and that they probably  'love it'  is out of order.  Most women would find that resorting to   prostitution is a the very  last resort.  Enjoying it and being  forced to do it  to survive are very different things. BTW is it something YOU would consider if you were in that situation?

Sadly I've had nothing but absolute hassle with UC since I claimed.
 

Without going into too much detail; they made an error on their part in overpaying me. They're not accepting responsibility or accountability for this, I'm now expected to pay back just under £600. Because of my partner's earnings, my payment for the whole of this month is just £41.


I'm also a disabled individual. I'm apparently part of the 'limited capability' work group, where I'm not needing to 'sign on' every week like most people.
I've been applying for jobs daily, even well before I moved to Sheffield from Lincolnshire to live with my partner. I've only had two interviews in 3 months I've been here.

It drives me insane that I am doing everything I possibly can to get myself into work yet I'm at a disadvantage because of my disabilities. It also makes me angry that there are people who clearly have no intention of working getting way more than what I've got for the next month.


My partner has been an absolute diamond in supporting me; but with no money to pay my share of the bills, he's having to fork it out of his own wages and support/feed both of us.


I moved to Sheffield thinking I could begin a new happy chapter and get a job right away; damn, I was so wrong.
Instead, UC has put me in one of my worst states and I'm not getting any support from anyone for it.

It's a messed up and unfair system.

What a very odd view.

The world of prostitution is not a happy place where men and women stay in by choice. 

Far from it. Exploitation, violence, intimidation, trafficing, entrapment, substance abuse, despair, physical and mental health issues etc., are the norm.
