Being a courtesean
« on: 26 May 2013, 05:31:30 pm »
Being a courtesean means being educated, business savvy, a performing artists and a top of the line high class and prestigious sex worker. Some of them also incorporated worshiping a goddess and magic in their practice. Most of their sex practices were tantra and kama sutra. This profession orginated in Bombay, India in the sixteenth century. It is now obsolete there. Most modern courteseans are simply women hired to keep men company or women who work with the goddess and tantra and/or kama sutra. Doing the original work would make me happier than anything else in the world. How do I start and where?

You could learn to spell 'courtesan' properly?

You'll be the death of my keypad!


OP - In my opinion, the world of being a courtesan died when the likes of Cora Pearl hung her bloomers up. In this century it is a term used by ladies that is often laughed off by gentlemen. To be frank, there will never be anything 'High class' about sucking cock. However, again just my opinion, you can be a prostitute who attracts a certain class of gentleman simply by the way you market yourself. That marketing does not need to, it could be argued that it should not, include terms like courtesan or high class as an example. By having an online presence that shows you are articulate, can hold a conversation about all sorts of things (in-between sucking cock), have a sense of humour, are not a push over and know how to dress appropriately in any environment will give you the type of client (mostly) that you seem to be looking for.

Some of your previous posts indicate that you are of the belief that the richer the client the better they are behaved. Terms like courtesan or rich clients do not assure that, far from it, some of my favourite gents are proper 'blokey blokes' on a really tight budget and some of the richer ones can be complete arses.

It didn't and it's not.

Here and now, it's marketing, but what H says is right.

I think Wikipedia's been busy again.

Chiara, you have started a fairly considerable number of threads all roughly about the same thing, namely how to go about getting started as a sex worker which is entirely reasonable as that is what this forum is for. What is starting to become unreasonable is ignoring the answers you are given about reading up and coming back with specific questions when you've more idea of what it is you want to do, but even this is OK and your prerogative.

What is not OK is then continuing to start more vague threads about the same thing plus other subjects which are not on topic for the forum. If you want to start working, we'll do all we can to help with the practical things you need to consider but we're not here to make the decision for you, and we can't keep going round in circles.

Where are you based (roughly)? How do you think you want to work? When do you want to start, and how long do you think you want to keep working for? What's the average rate/competition like where you are? Where do you want to advertise? What will you do about screening/security? This is all the sort of stuff we can help with - the thread starter here is not.

I appreciate your time and expertise as this is the REAL question I've been wanting to ask all along.

That's good, because it's really been answered somewhere here :)

Find somewhere to advertise yourself like this, and see who bites. But the reality is likely to be less discussing interest rate swaps whilst juggling in-between bouts of lingam penis massage, surrounded by ancient Indian art, and more being on your knees in a Travelodge...

If your new to the sex industry I'd start off just getting proper hands on experience and savvy before going down the courtesan route. Not saying you don't have a brain or anything I am just saying you need experience IMO. I know a few escorts that have started off like the rest of us then once they feel ready they have started a whole new profile/pics/prices/everything and taken it from there. I may do it myself next year I think.

Okay Courtesans don't even exist (to my knowledge and opinion)
As Nobody Interesting pointed out richer men do not mean nicer men.
I've seen other women on aw saying their courtesans and then in the next sentence a c**k loving w***e. Of course that is their choice but I wouldn't suggest doing it. If your serious about trying the courtesan route I would search this site there may be some good information gone over already.
Market yourself how you please but I advise you try and be yourself as best as possible. By this I mean if your laid back and fun to be with play on that and make it come across in your writing. End of the day client want someone who they can get on with and find desirable in looks not what your title is.

I didn't have anyone to tell me the whole escorting game in and out. Some things we need to learn on our own to actually fly the nest. This looks like copied and paste because as the op talks about this in depth, she then asks about where to start. Hmm... I believe she posted a few other times and is still thinking about escorting. What some people do when their bored.
