Service submission, in a different form. It does not involve any S/m and there are limits in place.

I found this article to be fascinating, in particular the lack of outcry from the public.

Do 'you' think that this would work in the US?
Or would there be the view that she has sold herself, that she is the bane of the modern woman?

"It's your right to arrange Chen Xiao's life, and it's my obligation to serve you," read her online shop."

I wonder if I could do that here LOL  Good for her!

She's not doing anything illegal or that crosses her own moral boundaries. Taking pictures at a birth, delivering meals, etc are the kinds of things that you could hire people to do here. What's unusual is that she hasn't settled on one thing, but is doing all kinds of stuff.

It's already being done here. Check any Craigslist gigs section (and not just in the "adult" subsection)... I think they're called "personal assistants."

The problem with being able to do that here, or at least in my part of Florida, is that I could not do it for $3.00/hour. No public transportation here means I would have to run a car and the costs of fuel, maintenance, and insurance would exceed the $3.00/hour fee. Sure, I could raise my price to something that approaches covering the bare costs but in so doing, my services would come up the level that most would deem them to be an extravagance; they could do it themselves for the same or cheaper costs.

Something like this might work in a metro area where inexpensive mass transit is plentiful and available 24/7.

I predict a LARGE number of illegal and immoral requests in response to this service, if offered in the US over the internet.

Yes, I agree. But, as in the case of the woman in China, those requests can be ignored or handled with humor. Although... I can see where some law enforcement officials might be interested in learning the origin of these requests. That might put a burden on the assistant in extra paperwork.

What I thought was interesting was her reasoning, that her life choices seemed to be going in the wrong direction so she decided to turn choices over.

She seems to be enjoying her service role for now.
