FOR WOMEN

Ex-hooker Rebecca Dakin has gone public about her former career, exposing the ins-and-outs of the world’s oldest profession, as well as the psychology of the men who support it.

Dakin, 37, spent nine years as a prostitute “dating” an estimated 900 customers before quitting the life to seek out a new path as an author, dating coach and infidelity expert.

“If your man is not asking you for sex anymore, it means he’s seeking it elsewhere — he’s not going to accept being in a marriage without sex,” Dakin said. “They are probably relieved that he’s not hassling them and just decide to turn a blind eye.

“Everyone always hates the escorts, but you have to remember there are women are probably quite thankful that they’re around.”

Dakin estimated about 60 percent of her Valentine’s Day clientele in the past “were married or had girlfriends,” explaining what she thinks the rationale is for the unfaithful behavior.

“Men cheat for different reasons,” Dakin said. “Some may be genuinely lacking intimacy at home, but others just get off on the danger element of wondering whether they’ll get caught.”
