Is it slander or reality?
Who's to say? Doesn't seem to matter much anymore.
Is it exploitation?
Of course it is. Consensual exploitation.
How is it different from prostitution?
It's not remarkably different at all, I guess. Unless you consider the fact that there is just one 'john' remarkably different. But then, I support the legalization of prostitution so that doesn't bother me so much. In fact, none of it really reads on my 'moral compass' but I find many facets of it distasteful nonetheless. Not the least of which that Hugh Hefner, who started the golden age of beautiful, all-natural nude photography prefers women who are surgically altered. yuk. that's just fucked up.
Similarities to polygamy?
Not really. It seems more a 'lifestyle' than a 'way of life.' If that makes any sense.
