Why quote rate in roses?

Why say 300 roses? Is a turn off for me when an escort uses that euphemism. Am I alone?

I can tolerate 'donation'. But roses...

It’s a rather dated way to be discreet. Not sure why it’s a “turn off.” Care to elaborate?

Funny you bring that up, as I was recently updating my contacts, and deleted a guy who had a personal webpage using the roses as payment metaphor. I can't imagine what he would do if I actually took it literally and blocked by face at the door with bushels of flowers! (The number was currently out of service).

I picture more of a big wagon behind you so they are not initially visible.

its because certain sites and aps will ban you for saying donations. so they say something else.

I would imagine it’s the equivalent to the younger escorts in Europe now using a diamond emoji to signify they are “available for hire.” But I know in the United States that emoji doesn’t mean the same thing. So, careful.

Reminds me of the goofy emoji-laden ads from the BP days.

This convention has been used for years. The other favorite is to divide the price by 1000, e.g. 20 cents instead of $200. LE isn’t fooled by either.

Roses (and rose emojis in profiles) are still quite common on Grindr

Interesting. I’ve never tried Grindr or the other apps. I always assumed I was too old. After 50, it seems you become The Invisible Man!

I’m a decade+ older than you. I’m Confident in my look and my persona. A high degree of tolerance for rejection helps, but I use Grindr quite successfully.

300 roses would cost anywhere from $325 to $425, depending on which retailer you bought them from. Trader Joe's recently had them for $12.99/dozen and Target for $16.99/dozen.
