Just my two pennorth's worth...

I've noticed quite a few threads started over the past few weeks that have been, if I'm honest, pretty trivial and/or could have been slotted into an existing thread (the 'annoy' and 'how not to book' ones in particular). If we all started a new thread everytime we had a timewaster, no show or irritating client, the boards would soon be overwhelmed.

So perhaps sometimes it's worth just taking a few deep breaths and counting to 10 before you post something that you'll probably have forgotten about the next day anyway?

To be fair he's anonymous, no one knows his identity so he hasn't been 'hurt' in any way...


Lois's post was just a funny light hearted account of daft behaviour on his part but hey that's what we get paid for :-)


It reminds me of a Rod Stewart song...'If you want my body and you think I'm sexy come on sugar let me know' changed to 'If you want my money and you think I'm sexy come on sugar let me know, if you really need me just reach out and touch me...

Thanks Jess - regardless, of the goodys, he was grim x

Totally agree. Not exactly sure where the disrespect is to be honest. I didn't see anything wrong with the post. To me she wasn't laughing at him or anything. Just merely pointing out that he is full of himself when he shouldn't be because he ain't shit. e.g. he said he had a cracking ass when in fact there was moles on it. I mean C'mon, it will be different if the Op just came and said, "urgh I had a man today with moles on his ass hahaha, and he had a small dick ewww muhahaha" she didn't do that.  Not sure if it had anything to do with him wanting to feel like james bond for couple hours. I just think there is no need to be in someone's face about it like bending over and showing your ass? Seriously? Clearly this is not the characteristic of someone who is insecure, he is just full of shit and as such should be put to shame..Plus, as katrina said, no one knows his identity anyway.pretty sure the man is not the issue, it's the attitude that he carries if that was the case she would have probably been making similar posts everyday as the majority of these men are fugly. So her mentioning his ugly appearances are to do with his imperious attitude. she wouldn't have gone off on him like this  if he wasn't so big headed. I would rather be physically exhausted than mentally so to me this is a horrid booking.  I think the responses are OTT not the post itself but whatever!

Starjumps Lol!
You have a way with your words Lois, Just brilliant

Lois, you're free to post threads about bookings in whichever way you see fit, but other members are just as free to disagree with you and say so - this does not mean they have a 'superiority complex'; it just means they disagree with you and the people who do as far as I can see have all explained why? Equally, if it's meant to be humourous then all well and good, but as with any audience some people will share your sense of humour and others won't and there's no point getting defensive about it.

Getting upset because not everybody wants to laugh at posts ridiculing punters and calling them names because of things which they can't do anything about (as I think Mirror put it) is just silly - there will always be dissenting views and I would think plenty of people would see this as unkind and unfair, especially given the gloating about spending his money. It's nothing to do with whether or not the person concerned is identifiable; it just - to some people - leaves a bad taste. That doesn't make anybody right or wrong, it's all personal opinions which we're all (including me I might add, since I've been a forum member far longer than I've been a forum admin and I've been a prostitute almost twice as long as that) entitled to.

It's a stressful time of year and judging by other posts here some people are having a hard time, but whilst venting is a useful thing if it makes us feel better I agree with Kay that the endless negativity is getting incredibly wearing (and more than anything else I sympathise with those who seem to be getting a constant stream of bad bookings) I also think it wouldn't hurt to keep some sense of proportion. Even my horrible booking last week netted me a couple of hundred quid - I doubt the folks working in the supermarkets and department stores at the moment would be getting the violins out; in fact as I used to do just that I know they wouldn't.

Why Eve? Are all your clients that awful?

This forum is for sharing experiences, asking and answering questions and support for sex work related issues. It is not a platform to slag off punters, men generally or anybody else and as the rules at the top of this board state, whilst relating unpleasant experiences is all part of why we're here, baseless and sweeping negativity towards groups of people on the basis of gender, age, ethnic background or punter status is not, because it's bad for everybody.
