Don't know if it helps or not, but I agree with the others. You gave her a chance, (...one I would almost kill for when I finish college!...) she's blown it. If you're not comfortable with what she's doing and she won't stop, you're within your rights to have her leave. You tried to help someone in a desperate situation, and that makes me admire you a lot. But they've got to respect your wishes while living in your home to get on their feet.

Hmmm,  I know quite a few t-girls who have been or are sex workers.  There isn't much glamorous about it.  Guys who are working out a fantasy with a pre-op transsexual are not looking for a call girl.  It is hard, mostly unpleasant work. 

An awful lot of us don't come here undamaged.  I'm one of the lucky ones with an education, a job, a life. I know you're not judging and your home is your space.  Thank you for taking the time and treasure to help out even if it didn't work.  That you were willing to take the risk says a lot.  Ontario has some very cool people and Antonia, you are one of them.

Shalom,

Well she finally came back at 1AM last night, I sat her down right away and explained that she can't both be a sex worker and live a normal life, and told her that she had to move out in the morning. I printed out information on a hostel ad a shelter which are trans friendly and came recommended by friends.

She did say she only did it out of need and that she was between a rock and a hard place but at this point I just don't agree and not sure what to believe.

In any case she's packing her bags now, I'll store them here while she goes to her immigration class this morning but after that she's picking them up and leaving.

Thank you everybody again for your advice, it really helped to have someone to talk to about this.
