Jobs Saved or Created?

Just randomly checking the news headlines when I saw this at Fox News:

Use of Surrogate Sex Partners
Rising Among Women

Ummm. OK. Let’s see what this is about:

“More and more women are now claiming their birth right to either have an orgasm, or healthy relationship or have sexual satisfaction,” said Shai Rotem, a surrogate partner who is based in Los Angeles but practices internationally.
In his 14 years as a surrogate partner, Rotem has worked with women who have a condition called vaginismus, which makes sex painful, women in their 40s or 50s who are virgins and women who have experienced sexual trauma. . . .
Surrogate partners work with their patients to build their communication skills and self-confidence, and help them become more comfortable with physical and emotional intimacy. Rotem said sessions are well-planned and less anxiety-provoking for patients than real-world sexual encounters, where anything can happen. “[This] is way safer than meeting strange men in a bar,” he said.

Is this sort of employment going to be increased as a result of Obama’s jobs program? Will surrogate therapy be covered by ObamaCare?

Because if this blogging gig doesn’t work out . . .

    Tough way to make a living – the competition is ferocious out there.  Believe it or not, there are even a bunch of guys doing this stuff for FREE.

    It’s about helping patients “build their communication skills and self-confidence,” you see. And I’m an expert at that stuff.

    Because this comment thread will not be complete without my traditional-family-values snark: Hum, would the need for such services indicate that modern sexual mores don’t work out that well for women? That rather than giving women sexual freedom and the ability to enjoy their sexuality, these “no strings attached” encounters benefit horny men and give women less satisfaction than they would find within a loving marriage?

    Rotem said sessions are well-planned and less
    anxiety-provoking for patients than real-world sexual encounters, where
    anything can happen. “[This] is way safer than meeting strange men in a
    bar,” he said.

    A man whom you trust, who takes your sexual pleasure seriously because it’s his job – wow, back in the day, that job description was filled by husbands.  (Not all husbands, but any man worth being called a man cares about his wife’s experience in bed and also understands that he’s not going to get much in the long term unless she likes it.)

    Your points are well taken. And you should contribute to the “Keep Mrs. Other McCain Happy” Fund.
