Good article.
Since she is given to euphemism, that bit about waiting three months to have sex could well be a bit of hyperbole.
People often define prostitution as paying for a specific sex act either immediately before or after provision of service, whereas other forms of paid sexual companionship come under other headings, such as courtesanship (not courtship!).
This can create ambiguities when completing one's tax return. Should this in-kind income as described above be accurately reported as self-employment (Schedule SE) or as a rental activity (Schedule E)? If she is a student with no other income, is she claimed as a dependent on a parent's tax return? Best, I feel to consult with a professional tax preparer or accountant.
