Well, though it is a clever idea, the original thread (which is linked as the first post in this thread) wasn't actually started by me. I will admit though that it was actively continued by me.

Ridiculous! Any escort who would say that is one to run away from fast. He has no idea of the importance of relationship building with clients. When he starts asking for extra money for things that are generally part of a sexual encounter, in my view, he is not respecting the client.

Hahaha! My motto is never reduce your fee. I would rather lose a potential client than start negotiating the value of my services on a case by case basis. If my fee feels expensive to them, I worry that, at any amount, they are spending money they can't afford to spend anyway. And the worst feeling I could ever leave a client with is regret! That is also the reason I often hesitate to do "right now" requests from new clients.

The first and last one are bizarre, but the 2nd one I say very often when I have to leave a conversation to go to the gym, because it is true. It's not the only reason I go to the gym, but I am certainly thinking about looking hotter for my clients when I work out.

I have never met anyone who refuses to either send a face pic or meet up in person in advance if they prefer. It works for me and I really can’t understand why if it doesn’t work for a potential client they don’t just move on and forget about it. I know I have a lot to offer but I am sure there are many, many others that can provide the service under their terms. I agree that if it makes the client angry that is due to some serious self esteem issues.

Well said! Very well said!

Good point. Could just be that the client has anger issues or just lacks respect for escorts as human beings with the same freedom of choice as clients.

I am not sure that anyone is questioning the rights of a provider. I would agree with you 100%. My understanding of what I read was that providers who do not asked for stats have provided most excellent service and that some people do not want to provide stats and pictures for reasons of their own. Therefore, they skip over those providers. Providers who do require stats and or pictures have a niche of their own and do well. I think the general consensus is to each their own. If a provider wants stats and or pictures, the client should comply or move on and most importantly respect the wishes of the provider.

Read about 65% of this thread. For me it's simple. Both parties in any interaction get to set the terms theyre comfortable with.
If a provider asks for stats and pics - that's their terms. If those terms don't work for you, say "Sorry that doesnt work for me" and move on. Done.
I'm a bit surprised at the number of people here who feel the provider doesn't have the right to decide for himself how he'll choose to meet clients.

Raise your hand if you’re tired of my client/business preferences being the hot topic of conversation!

This is quite a conundrum for me! Apparently I am in the “wrong business” but I like it and make good money at it. What to do?

I always send pic and stats - I have seen and selected then from their ad presenation with their pictures. Why wouldn't I provide the same courtesy?
 
PLUS, if they feel they wouldn’t be comfortable spending time w/ me, WHY would I ever want to be w/ them.
 
FYI, I am 70, 5’ 10, (age shrink from younger 6’1”) 240# with some decorative abdominal scars:) average cut
 
Those I select are young and slender and they have all been able to perform exactly as if I was the dreamboat they successfully cruised and connected with.
 
WHY WOULD I EVER want to spend time with someone who couldn’t or didn’t want to interact with me? As others have said, providers are human too - not machines - everyone is not for everyone!
 
There are still a few members here that I am waiting for schedules and physical locations to allow our meeting. Enough communication has already happened so “vetting” LOL is done.
 
And yes, they are decades younger than I am and slender and HOT:)

You’re missing out....

Hand raised!
 
Escort or client, if you aren’t comfortable with who you’re dealing with - move on!
 
P.S. to this overall thread, I’ve sent my pic, age, stats etc. too many times to count to providers with zero consequences over the years

I do not think so. Your a young hot dude. You have a particular niche and you market it well. Thus, you are successful. Just because some clients have different hiring criteria and some esorts have different client criteria. It does not make either right or wrong. You are happy and your clients are happy that is all that should matter.

Hand raised. But I do like it when you're drawn into a conversation -- just so I can look at your avatar.

To the best of my knowledge, there is no single set of operational standards that every escort must follow (except possibly in your head). Maybe you should publish a book of operational standards for the escort industry and get it approved by the escort certification board.
