As to the "pimping" I am using the common definition of one who procures 
partners for a woman who is expected to perform sexual services for said 
partners, to the benefit of the "pimp". That "benefit" is typically money, 
but it can be anything even as small as a "Thank you" and still lie within 
the definition.
