Reasoning
Epstein's characterization of Jane Doe 1 and 2 as 'local strippers' who actively solicited 'massage' work is a classic victim-blaming/recharacterization tactic. The term 'massage' in this context is recognized in court filings as euphemism for sexual services. Emphasizing their alleged initiation of contact is designed to suggest consent and adult status, but read against the thread's broader defensiveness on age ('looked over age'), this pattern strongly suggests the accusers were minors at time of alleged contact.
