My name is Lana and I’m a transsexual prostitute from Samoa. I’ve been working the car park down in St Kilda for as long as I can remember. Some of the girls I work with are full change, some, like me, still have their dicks and others are cross-dressers.

This isn’t necessarily what I would have chosen as my ultimate career path but it’s pretty well impossible to get any other job, anywhere in the world, when you look like a woman but have a man’s name on your passport.

So, here I am. In this business you can have a 36-24-36 figure and look like you just walked off the catwalk, but most of the time if you don’t have 10 inches and active, you can forget it. 75% of my clientele are married men who like being with a woman with a dick. Sometimes guys will come in all “I’m straight and this is my first time” but when you go to fuck them you almost fall in. Once these guys blow, the guilt trip starts and within seconds they are out the door. I’m like “darling, you don’t have to convince me. I’m not interested in what you like. I just want your money.”

The money, of course, is what drives me to keep going back day after day. We do a whole lot more than regular prostitutes and that equals cash, cash and more cash. In a really good week I can service about six clients a day and end up pulling in over $10,000.

I know I don’t want to do this forever and I’ll stop once I get the full operation done, which costs around $10,000 in Melbourne. They’ll either turn my penis inside out and poke in a new middle-hole or take a bit of my butt and make a vagina out of that. They use skin from your balls to make pussy lips, I guess because you get the best pubes that way. In Sydney it costs as much as $25,000 for the same thing. I guess I should count myself lucky though; if it was the other way round and I was a woman wanting to become a man, I’d be looking at around $70,000, which would involve more tricks than I’d care to imagine.
