The pimp
usually (there certainly are exceptions) has no interest in robbing or in blackmail. He's too afraid of confrontation he believes he may
lose, he wants to control the female as he views them as something that he can own and he believes they are powerless against him, if they fight back (at all, in ANY manner) he beats them, sometimes to their death - he can't stand the thought of being confronted by another man - he might actually get hurt or lose that battle.
There are
more than a few posts in this thread where the gentleman proclaims they'd never see a lady with a "pimp" (or even a boyfriend or S/O) and when you look (and if you know happen to know the truth of it), you'll find they've each reviewed several ladies that either are/were actively being pimped (using the definition of one that is abused, controlled and manipulated by someone else via physical and [primarily] emotional force to perform activities they otherwise would not entertain) or they are/were controlled by a boyfriend or S/O (and by controlled, I also mean abused).

Usually yes . . . and there are plenty of street pimps left in KC. NORMALLY, one doesn't encounter them here on the boards, although they have made the transition slowly technologically (they have to be more careful in how they cover their tracks), but, those I would term "traditional pimps", as in "don't eyeball me or let me catch you out of pocket" type pimps are becoming more and more
predatory on the Internet everyday. There are a few cruising the board here in KC, they typically are members whom do not post and use PM exclusively.

Sens55 summed it up very well, IMO (and so did Questor) - and many have made the distinction between ladies that are being "pimped" and those working smartly with some type of security or safety net in place.
For me, the difference is simple. REGARDLESS of what you call the person doing it, if the lady is being pressured/abused ("turned out"), she need not be patronized less the cycle be continued.
However, IMO, it is difficult (if not in most all circumstances, actually impossible) for most all gentlemen in this endeavor to know when they actually encounter such - and it may be career suicide for one of us ladies to point it out to you guys, no matter how factual it may be . . . For instance, there are examples of reviews here on ECCIE from gentlemen proclaiming a lady has a "pimp", when in fact she is a true independent and has no attachment to any other single person IRL (other than her family) . . .
And, then there's the whole dichotomy / hypocrisy angle which Silly Girl touched upon . . . but that's a whole other thread.
Choose wisely - look for ladies (yes, such as myself) that treat the endeavor like a business and "run clean" - ladies that WANT to do what they do and whom have made a conscious decision and choice to do so for
themselves. There are many of us - and in the end, you'll probably be much happier - as you'll have more consistent positive and pleasurable experiences.
Be safe!

Hehe.
