The Girlfriend Experience

The Girlfriend Experience, or GFE, is the name of a very special type of service offered by sex workers. When men want not just the physical act of sex, but a girl to treat them like the man they love, they request The Girlfriend Experience. Steven Soderbergh made the term famous this summer with his film of the same name, starring real-life porn star Sasha Grey.
