The Hot Spot: The Escort Bible for Belfast; a Tough Place to be an Escort

Escort and Escort Rankings' writer Redhotrio interviews an escort who works in Northern Ireland and finds that it's not the easiest place to working in escorting. 

Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland. It is also the birthplace of the Titanic and has this commemorated in the renovated docklands called the Titanic Quarter. Belfast also boasts a 200-year old library which was founded in 1788.

Belfast native Angie escorts as well as studying for her university degree. She makes a very

profitable living from it. However, she admits to being a workaholic and thus works long hours. She enjoys sex work and has built up a rapport with her clients, many of whom she now classes as regulars. She prefers to keep her side hustle a secret, working day times only. 

Strict legislation

Perhaps this is also because of the strict legislation in Northern Ireland, which outlaws paying for sexual services in the province. “Website NI Direct says: “It is a crime in Northern Ireland to pay for sex. This means it is illegal to pay or promise to pay someone for sex, either directly or through another person. Under the law, payment can mean money, goods or services.” 

BBC News reported in 2014 that the Northern Ireland Assembly passed the Human Trafficking and Exploitation Bill, which includes a clause criminalising payment for sex. 

Contradictorily, it's now illegal to provide sexual services. The website adds: “It is not a crime to sell sexual services in Northern Ireland. It is also not a crime to loiter or solicit for the purposes of offering services as a prostitute in a street or public place.”

“It is however a crime to keep or manage a brothel or to control prostitution for profit. If this involves anyone under the age of 18 the penalties can be up to 14 years imprisonment.”

However, in 2019 an article in the New Statement by Siobhan Fenton headlines with the argument, 'A new law in Northern Ireland criminalises sex work – and endangers sex workers'. 

She writes: “Erin, a Belfast-based sex worker, didn't know what to expect when legislation in Northern Ireland changed with little fanfare four years ago to make it a criminal offence to pay for sex. “I didn't start to worry about the impact until I was affected by it. It's like all politics, I guess, you don't care until you're affected personally and then – you really care.”

Constant fear of the law

Anyway, back to Angie, who advertises her sexual services discreetly online, as the policies of the printed media prevent her from advertising in their publications. Legislation and regulation is going against the tide of being able to advertise sexual services too. Therefore, getting clients and finding locales to service them has to be done in a cloak and dagger manner. 

Angie voiced her concerns and has contemplated going on tour to the rest of the UK, escorting solidly for a week and then returning home. She says there is a constant fear of the law. Despite this, records show that the demand for escorts and sexual services, and also the number

of working girls has increased significantly in recent months.

Memorable experiences

Angie does share her most memorable experiences to date. She was asked to dress up as a

leprechaun and flog a client with a cat of nine tails. She got one guy to rent a penthouse for

the weekend, giving her a 1000 euro tip for crushing grapes on his penis, while wearing thigh high boots.

Due to legislation and regulations, it's better to rent an apartment than stay in a hotel. You may also incur extra charges as some hotels will charge for another bed if you bring someone back at night.
