The escorts/clients voice: how much does that matter?

[Atomicshawn]

Weird title, I know. For the clients, how much does that really affect a hire? Personally, I require a call to book an appointment and some clients like to hear a voice to put them at ease.

Alternatively, I'm sure some clients can settle with a text booking and simply show up.

One reason I ask is because a regular of mine suggested I start a podcast of sorts. I'm still on the fence with the idea for many reasons but thought I'd ask you guys. Anyone on here have one as part of their online presence?

Some clients are body-oriented. Some clients are phallically oriented. Some are facially oriented. Some are derriere oriented.

 

For me, and possibly a deal breaker, is the voice. Some I can't stand to hear. Some just sound dumb. (At my heart of hearts, though, the first three are important, too!)

 

Make of that what you will.

I can tell if somebody is a creep, just from the voice. I also hate nasal/falsetto/feminine voices. In both cases, it's a no.

I can do the same thanks to my advisor for my Speech/Theatre minor at school. For me it's an issue of overall delivery rather than just a vocal quality or two. And if you want to book an overnight with me, you can expect a minimum of two hours on the phone or multiple conversations before it's a go. It may sound like a lot, but trust me… I'm doing you a favor.

As a woman with a low-pitched voice, I'm prejudiced in favor of bass-baritone men. I also favor clear diction, correct grammar, and smoothly-flowing conversation on the phone.

While I don't require a phone call before booking, I have always found them reassuring. So far, I've experienced a "calming of the nerves" when I hear the escort's voice. In other words, it is important to me, but it's never been a deal breaker. On the other hand, I'm always shocked when I hear my own voice. I don't care for it, but, as far as I know, I haven't been rejected because of it. I have had escorts insist on a call. This is fine with me, and, I guess, they've been happy with what they've heard from me. BTW, Chris, I do not snore (if that helps).

I feel like I tend to express myself better in writing at first, so I tend to like to communicate by email - but it's always great to be able to seal the deal with a phone call before meeting. When I officially hired for the first time last summer, I was happy to get to talk to the escort and to discover that he had a friendly but "manly" masculine tone to his voice, which is just what I had hoped for in that instance. It helped reassure me that I had chosen the right guy.

 

I have had other situations - I'm talking regular ol' non-escort hookups - where that phone call has made me change my mind. A few months ago, I had a very nice email exchange with a guy, and we were hoping to meet. Then we talked on the phone. His voice and manner of speech just wasn't what I'd somehow expected, and I found myself second-guessing whether I thought we'd really have the right chemistry in person. We had a polite conversation - I didn't come right out and say that I felt like changing my mind - but I tend to wonder if he felt as uncomfortable as I did, or if he could tell I wasn't into it We didn't pursue anything after that.

 

So yes, I'd say voice can play a big part. Unless, of course, you're not planning to have any conversation at all, lol. (Rude to talk with your mouth full, lol.)

I love to hear a deep sexy guttaral voice or moan while fucking or sucking. So if the voice is too high pitched or too weak I would probably pass. Of course, the voice is only one of many factors and so I would put deep guttaral voice as a preference but not a must.

It's usually not a big deal for me, once we get down to business there's not a whole lot of verbalization going on - more reading body language. But a couple observations...

 

Met up with a travelling guy recently where in our initial phone conversation, I could barely get a word in edgewise. Rambling on and restating over and over what he'd been saying. Kind of a pet peeve of mine - as I get older, I get less patient with people who don't realize that a conversation should be roughly 50-50. Stop for a second and consider whether 9 of the last 10 minutes has been you talking. My contributions aren't limited to a few words that let you get started on another topic. And I hate having to resort to interrupting them just to get a chance to say something.

 

Phew...felt good to get that out. :-) For what it's worth, the session with him was superb.

 

The other situation was with a travelling escort from the South. His accent was so strong that I really had to work hard to understand what he was saying. It was a great session, a dom/sub thing, but I kept having to ask him to repeat himself, and I was afraid that sometimes it was coming across as "you're crossing my boundaries" rather than "I have no idea what you just told me to do".

I like to call my clients before the appointment just to make sure they don't have any last minute questions and finalize arrangements such as location. I also think speaking with the client by phone is important prior to an appointment. There is something lost setting up an appointment through email.

You do other things... that do help. As I found out in person.

Interesting thread. Voice is significant for me, and I look for it to be in sync with the escort's pictures. (Yes, that's subjective, I admit.) And talking first gives me an idea of what's going on in the upstairs head....which for me is as important as the downstairs one. :-)

[Jscott]

While it isn't the top criterion in selection, voice is important to me: part of the fantasy, the overall package. I want a masculine guy. Occasionally, there's a disconnect between the muscular bod and the effeminate voice. Nor do I want someone who runs at the mouth, sounding tweaked out on the latest designer drug; then again, I'm not looking for the strong but silent type, especially in bed ... If the escort (hell, anyone!) can carry on an otherwise stimulating conversation out of bed, so much the better.

[ibutukhia]

I think for me, talking with the escort sort of depends on what I'm looking for at the time. If it's someone just to scratch an immediate itch if I am travelling, maybe not. But if it is someone I might be interested in seeing a bit more often, it might be nice to get to know him just a bit before we meet. But I don't think I've ever been turned iff by anyone's voice so much that I wouldn't hire them. So that part isn't important to me.

Interesting thread. I prefer to do most of my pre-appointment communication via email, but I do like to speak with the escort prior to the appointment (once we've agreed to proceed) - it does add an extra dimension to the pictures and establishes a bit more familiarity. I don't see the sound of someone's voice being a deal-breaker at that point.

 

In the pre-internet days, when I hooked up via classifieds (without pictures) in print publications or via phone ads, voice was more important in filling out the mental picture of a person. But I remember meeting one guy who had a pronounced Latin accent (he was from Puerto Rico, I think) and I was shocked when I opened the door because he was actually ethnic Chinese but born and raised in a Spanish-speaking country.

Sorry. I should always mention that I am Taiwanese.

I love when someone is calling to check me out or hear my voice (preferably from a blocked number) and there is one big silence from the other end.

 

Communication is about establishing some basic dialogue. Newbies: write down some questions or ideas before calling. The first time is always harder.

[Lohengrin1979]

Voice is very important to me in a hire. High or low doesn't matter. I want resonance, clarity, and cadence. Ironically I can't stand my own speaking voice which might be why it's important that I like an escort's voice when he speaks to me.

Cadence and 'thrust' are important for any musician and dancer.

I will start speaking in iambic pentameter with every potential client.

Awesome feedback, and yeah I can't stand hearing my own voice as well but I think it's good to have some back/forth convo before a session!

Please don't. I'm on a budget this quarter.
