I hate being asked what availability I have, feels kind of stalker-ish. I refuse to tell them and ask them to suggest a time.
There is a touch of this! It's also nosy. Like digging a bit too deep into your affairs and trying to get a lock on how busy you are to assess your value. Probably lots of male privilege and unconscious biases in there! I go a bit vague when they ask my availability. Ultimately I'll always fall back on "call when you have a firm time in mind".
As for today I had one call. One. I figured he might be a timewaster as he was failing my questions and he had a bit of a tell when he asked if I don't mind seeing black men. No it's not a bother in principle and yes I have had good clients with dark skin and no I don't profile" but I wasn't born yesterday either. He followed on by saying some women have a thing for black men and I'm thinking "Oh no not another one of them..." Yes he had a CE report. I was tired and went back to bed and decided I couldn't be bothered to get up and change so slept through his booked time. Yes, he was a no show.
One sms this late evening as an advance outcall booking enquiry. Seems polite and says the right words. As for whether he was browsing my profile in bed and felt horny and this evaporates, or is not suitable for some reason time will tell.
