Professional escort shares simple reason why she likes to date her clients
Katija Cortez, 29, has been working as an escort for the past three years and says she mostly dates her clients. There is a lot she's taken from the whole experience A professional escort has divulged details about the men who seek her companionship, revealing she enjoys dating her clientele. Katija Cortez, 29, from Sydney, entered the world of escorting around three years ago, after initially starting out as an accountant, a profession she "fell into" during her university days. Grasping an internship opportunity at one of the major accounting firms, she soon quit to chase her passion for writing. Her dream, however, was quashed when she realised being without a writing qualification limited her employment prospects. Previously, Katija, who boasts over 18,000 Instagram followers, disclosed: "I enrolled in my writing degree (Masters of Creative Writing). OnlyFans was booming at the time so I thought, why not? "Anything to avoid going back to accounting. The adult industry was never a Plan A, or something I had considered before, but I had a very expensive writing degree to pay for, very high rent to cover and I was envious of all the girls making money on OnlyFans while I spent the previous three years doing complex work, for unreasonably long hours, for what felt like less than minimum wage." However, she recently confessed that she sometimes dates her clients. Indeed, most of her romantic encounters occur through the unique nature of her work. In an exclusive interview, she expressed: "Yes, I mostly date clients! I've dated four clients during my tenure. I find it so much easier because they already know what I do. "I know straight away whether or not we are sexually compatible. I find out a lot of information about them off the bat - marital status, job, income, investments. I get to see the real them. "All clients are very raw with sex workers. It's a safe space where they don't need to pretend or hide. So I get to see the real them, straight away." Despite this, she concedes that no two appointments are identical, with each encounter varying according to the client's desires. Some clients prefer to engage in conversation and establish a connection before moving on to intimacy. Others might opt for room service or to watch a film together. There are those who fancy a more extravagant date, which for Katija could mean being wined and dined or enjoying a romantic night out, followed by returning home for some private time. Her profession has inevitably influenced her perspective on relationships. Over time, she's gained considerable insights. Katija disclosed: "I don't really believe in monogamy anymore. I've seen enough married men to know that monogamy just doesn't work. "Majority of the married men seeing me are the nice guys - the ones nobody would ever expect. So it's not just the 'F-Boy types' who are seeing me, it's the nice guys too. There is always a breaking point. "I do still believe in love and do hope that I'll be married one day - I just don't think any future relationships of mine will be traditional or monogamous. I've learnt in this job that multiple things can be true at one time. "My married clients can enjoy having sex with me, and can also still be totally devoted and in love with their wives at the same time."

Escort warns of deadly bedroom trend that's become popular with couples: 'It's scary'
An escort has issued an urgent warning about a potentially deadly bedroom trend that is becoming popular with couples. Katija Cortez, 29, from Sydney, Australia, was only a teenager when she first experienced the 'scary' sex act in an unexpected move from her partner. Now she says those who like to spice things up in the bedroom should avoid choking—a common kink that's known to increase the risk of lethal brain damage. The Australian sex worker has said she has seen a surge in requests for the act and believes this is a result of men watching it in porn. 'When I was younger, a lot of guys had started doing it, which I think definitely came from seeing it in porn. Choking during porn is very, very common,' she told She stressed couples should clearly communicate beforehand to be as safe as possible. 'Just like movies, porn stars are trained professionals working in controlled environments where many things are all agreed upon beforehand. Even porn actors discuss dos and don'ts before a scene,' she said. She added: 'It needs to be understood that this particular kink can be scary and should not be done without asking.' You don't have to be particularly strong to cause a major injury, according to Professor Heather Douglas of Melbourne Law School. 'Only a small amount of pressure can cause serious harm, and potentially death. 'Particularly concerning is that this behaviour can lead to brain injury and the more often people engage in strangulation, the more likely brain injury is. 'Often, people will be unaware of this.' It comes as 35 per cent of 16-34 year-olds reported being strangled or choked at least once during consensual sex, according to a recent poll. Some 50 per cent of those who engaged in the act said they have a visible neck injury after. Women who had been choked four times over the previous 30 days experienced changes in their brain structures that affected ability to perform memory tasks, according to research by Dr Debbie Herbinick, a sexual and reproductive health specialist. The act of choking restricts blood flow to the brain, which can cause it to stop operating at normal capacity immediately. If the oxygen deficiency continues, it can suffer necrosis, or tissue death, within five minutes, leading to brain damage. Even just 10 seconds of choking can cause a person to pass out, studies have shown.
