Disappointing non-client
« on: 23 July 2009, 09:27:40 pm »
Though I have been doing this long enough that I feel like I know what's what, I haven't been doing it particularly long, so I am still quite surprised by things that occur now and then. Today I had an appointmet with a new client, but when I got undressed, he saw the few stretch marks on my tummy from when I was pregnant. He asked if I hae a kid, and I said yes. Then he sat down and just started shaking his head. Apparently it made him feel too guilty to pay a mother for sex! So I left. I still had him pay me a bit for making the trip out to him, but I was quite frustrated by his reaction. It seemed so insulting. I know there are clients who don't want to pay girls who need the money for some bizarre line of reasoning, but FFS. He was hard and ready to go. I just couldn't believe it. No other man has had a problem with the fact that I'm a mother. And it's not even their business anyway.  

He even had the nerve to ask why I hadn't "been honest" and told him. Oh gosh, WTF.

I'm just so agitated at the moment. Some punters have such strange ideals about the girls they see.

Its his problem not yours.  Lots of women have stretch marks, birth marks, freckels, moles etc.  Ive got stretch marks but not through pregnany.

If he feels so strongly then he should have asked you at the time of making the booking if you were a mum with stretchmarks.  You should not have to tell him, or any other client!

Oh I can totally understand your anger and frustration.  Besides what business is it of this guy what your personal circumstances are.  I might in your case be tempted to just say that you had some rapid weight gain and weight loss a few years back after having had an accident or some other story where you could not exercise etc.  That way you can deflect any questions about having a kid ? kind of think that is your business alone and might be good to keep a separate working identity.  Some gents don?t seem to mind but there are quite a lot of strange guys with even stranger attitudes.  I get asked if I have kids, I don?t and they seem surprised so you get reactions both ways.

Hi Janie

Yes im sure your first reaction would have been the wish to take a hot poker to the berks nether regions.

In this work you will come across men who say the most horrible,tactless,insensitive things. My advice? dont even listen to it! if you can master the trick of letting it go in one ear and out of the other without it lodging in your brain then you will be much happier in this job.

This man is clearly a prat who (as others have said) has issues that are his problem and his alone and absolutely no reflection on you. Let it go and dont waste a second more of your time thinking about it.

Another reason to get the money before it gets to this stage.

If he know he's got issues, it's him who needs to be 'honest' much earlier in the process.
'The Ian formerly known as SW5'. What they said: "Indispensable", "You are our best resource", and (hours later!) "I'm afraid that you're being made redundant..."

Being told you look like you are in your 30's when you are 22 is also annoying! (thanks for that one sir!)

It didn't seem to be a looks issue for him, but rather a guilt issue. He claimed he felt bad paying for sex with a woman who was doing it to support a child. I told him the truth, which is that I do this because it makes things easier to have the money, but not because I am desperate in any way. He still couldn't do it. He actually seemed as though he was near crying.

Another reason to get the money before it gets to this stage.

If he know he's got issues, it's him who needs to be 'honest' much earlier in the process.

He did pay me at the start, but I gave half of it back. Maybe I shouldn't have, but I was just surprised and didn't know what else to do, so that's what I did.

You're right -- if a client has issues, he needs to mention them instead of expecting the woman he's hiring to give him a rundown of her life situation.

Being told you look like you are in your 30's when you are 22 is also annoying! (thanks for that one sir!)

Wow, how rude and tactless! Well, don't feel bad about it. One of the most gorgeous actresses I can think of, Blake Lively, is in her early twenties, but I have heard people say she looks older. I don't personally agree, but there you go.

I really don't like when clients bring their guilt issues to an appointment! It's only happened to me once or twice in a whole year, thank God, but even that's enough to make you feel horrible for ages. I've had a client switch from being normal for one hour to suddenly going mental in the second, agonizing about 'doing bad things with a young prostitute' - I may be only 22, but I've got an old brain and in no way behave like an underage/immature girl so I'm really not sure what he was getting at. I gave him some money back and ran away early because I just felt quite grossed out having someone have a moral fit right in front of me! I almost wish I could write on my site, "Do you secretly feel guilty and ashamed about visiting a service provider? Then please don't book!" but that would probably freak out the normal clients.

It's kind of not-talked-about unless you're a 'feminazi' anti-prostitution person, but I think most of us WGs *do* have to do some proper thinking before we start in this job, about how we really feel about the whole thing, and whether we believe "wot society says" etc etc. I shouldn't speak for others but I know I've had some complicated stuff to go through in my mind before I've been able to say that Yes, I Am Happy Doing Sex Work. And I know that me being happy with it doesn't mean everyone is. Basically, it's a completely individual decision.

But I'm going off on a massive tangent! (Had two wines at lunch :P) But still think that it's insensitive of a client to think that he's the only one dealing with societal pressures/learned moral twinges and such. It takes two to have a fun, no-strings, enjoyable booking after all! Janie's client in particular seemed to have absolutely no regard for how his behaviour might make *her* feel - we're not emotional dumping grounds, whatever some clients might think. :-\

Or the effect on her and her family if she really was in the situation he thought she was in.

It never ceases to amaze me how idiotic some people are. Your client was a TOTAL jackass, and your stretchmarks are beautiful! Don't let some seriously peeped up individual get into your head.

How annoying!
Sounds to a bit like he had guilt issues about seeing an escort as such and may have found something else that would have prevented him from seeing through the appointment.

I wonder if your client watched 'The Street' recently? the story about Dee?

great drama,unfortunately from the exploitation point of view it hasn't done us WGs much good, as it has emphasised that we are not only crack whores, trafficed victims, but also desperate mums.

No disrespect to mums who are doing it to support their kids, but the woman at the end of her wits prostituting herself to feed her kids is a bit of a cliche too, isn't it? and doesn't support the fact that many of us do this because we enjoy doing it, are good at it and treat 'escorting' as a business as well as supporting our families.

Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the ground in the morning, Satan shudders and says: "Oh shit, she's awake!"

Ah, the client with issues.

I wonder many children this man has fathered and whether he was comfortable with the fact that he had chosen to spend their birthday present money on having his dick serviced? WHAT AN IDIOT. And the line about you "should have been honest with him"?!?!?!?! What, about your private life which is nothing to do with the booking?! I am so raging right now. Could you imagine if we were honest to??? What does he want, a totally honest escort?....

"ok, so I'm glad you want a booking, but just a few things I need to be honest with you about. I'm in a mood today, no particular reason. You are my third client of the day and I am really tired, and actually people in general are really starting to hack me off today, so I am going to plan my dinner in my head whilst you pummel me, if that's alright? Also, I am on my period so I have a sponge in. You won't notice though, so don't worry. I think I have a bit of a cold coming on too, but you shouldn't notice that either, well not until you get it in about a week. I am also pretty annoyed that I will be missing the start of eastenders because you are always ten minutes late, so I'm going to try and make you come a bit quicker and piss off early so I can catch the start of it, but I am going to pretend the reason I am being so frantic is because I am soooo turned on, which hopefully you'll believe. All alright with you? Great, see you at half 6".

Ok, so I went on a bit, but SERIOUSLY. Men who develop issues about seeing an escort, whilst in the process of seeing an escort, should be hung up by the balls for an hour to teach them a lesson.

Also, I have delightfully stretch-marked thighs, and that ain't cos I've been carrying a baby in my leg-womb now, is it? It's because I am a woman in my twenties and I like cake. xxx

A little confused now. Which clients are normal? The ones who moralise, or the ones who text "Do you like big cocks?"
find out exactly how and why a man hoping to escort women for a living has more chance of plaiting fog, and better earning prospects on Jobseekers Allowance.

Or he cud he be a perv who just wanted to see someone undress then insult her so she will leave & give him his money back then have a wank after she's gone!!!!!??????

Good job he hasn't seen my stretch marks they're like a road map of the whole of the UK!!!

And what has it got to do with a client if you have kids or not, it's non of their business. Why does it mean "honesty" if you tell him you're a mom!?

Sorry for the rant.  ::)
