My "first love" is a streetwalker

[sirhugs]

and not some fancy expensive escort either- the sort in the short skirt and tube top by the on damp near the by the hour motels.

did they date or was in unrequited love?
did they lose their virginity together?
do did she take the narrator's cherry after she was experienced?
are they same sex?
is the streetwalker now transgender?
do we learn how the sw ended up on the corner? do we care?
does the sw give the narrator a feebie? just a bj, or more?
or does narrator pay extra?
or does sw refuse because "just too weird"? In which case does narraror give them money anyway?
where does the tentacle monster fit in?

and does it end up with happily ever after?

Set the story in Japan, and the street walker IS a tentacle monster.

He hired her just to be a date for some occasion, but then he fell in love with her wit and charm.

Nah, I'm not buying that. I didn't buy it in the movie, either.

I have a story like that, although she is not a streetwalker per se, but a part-time campus hooker. (Are there such people? She's trying to be a student at the same time.)

My Summer With Nora ch. 01

1, Well they do wind up dating, as can be seen in the story.
2, She definitely took his cherry, as is also clear in the story.
3, They are of different genders, and she is not transgender.
4, They were in the same history class; that's how they met.
5, It starts out as a paid transaction, but eventually it all becomes a freebie.
6, The first and only transaction was paid with a term paper. She will take those in lieu of cash once in a while.
7, Not many tentacle monsters in upper Manhattan.
8. A happily ever after? Appears to be at first, but you'll have to read the final chapter when it comes out. The title of the series gives a big clue.

P.S.: She rarely if ever uses a motel. She usually uses a building on campus, an automobile, or her uncle's house (also her home) when he is at work. Sometimes she dresses provocatively, sometimes not. Oh, I wouldn't call her "charming" but she can be quite witty at times.

There is a story-- the veracity of which I can neither confirm nor deny-- about a waitress at a local diner who isn't a "working girl" per se, but who has five boyfriends, whom we will call Mr. Tuesday through Mr. Saturday, who each pay about 20% of her living expenses...

There is a fine line between who is and who is not a "working girl." Part of it may be how the woman defines herself and the activities she is doing. Possibly the male equivalent is who is and who is not a gigolo.

To digress to an old movie: There is a scene in Sunset Boulevard where Joe Gillis is identified - not in so many words - by a store clerk as the "male companion" of Norma Desmond. Joe seems shocked as he realizes the truth of what he has been doing. Of course, being 1950, it's all obvious yet subtle at the same time.

but we digress...in so many fun directions!

Yeah, but I think Joe Gillis is what I'd call an inadvertent gigolo. He did not seek it out, but it happened to him anyway. Have you ever seen that movie?

Regarding our student/hooker Nora (see above), I have a story told from her point-of-view.

Nora Turns a Trick

She already knows the narrator of the series, but it's a few weeks before she has anything to do with him. She comes across as pretty sharp, and she has no hesitation about referring to herself as a prostitute. Oh, "on damp?" You meant on ramp.

I am old enough that I saw that movie long long ago.

You don't necessarily have to be "old" to see an old movie, but it sort of helps! I'm sure a lot of younger people haven't seen old movies (however that is defined) although they could easily do so if they wished. I often forget that the first two Godfather films are at or near fifty years old, and lot of younger people don't know what I'm talking about when I make references to them.

I suppose you would have to have a streaming service now? In any case, people in general have little interest in anything that happened before they were born.

Yes, he liked him so much he was willing to have him killed. My takeaway from various mobster stories, both real and fictional, is how deluded most of them are about their own motives.

Henry Hill is an interesting case. I wouldn't call this absolute proof, but the book that his son and daughter later wrote about him, On the Run: A Mafia Childhood, shows a different, less attractive side of him. For one thing, he kept getting into serious trouble even after he was in the Witness Protection program. He wasn't an awful person, necessarily, but he seems to have been quite wobbly, even indifferent as a parent. The picture I get is that he mythologized himself quite a bit when he was doing the interviews for Wiseguy.

a lot of folks in Witness Protection apparently have a hard time going straight.
there must be a Lit story in there- a hooker or Madam who witbnssed a hit, now in protection, takes up her old ways?
