The only difference between hooking and being a "courtesan" is location. By that definition, if I beat my wife in California I'm a spousal abuser, but if I'm in Egypt, I'm a husband.
Speading for bread is hooking, or whatever you want to tell yourself so you can sleep at night. The only one with a problem here is you.(But I prefer the term Ed Norton's character "worm" in Rounders called it-"relaxation therapist").
