Can't really put it into words....you might call it chemistry.But I do know from experience, even if the first visit was great.... the second or subsequent vivits will probably be better. The reason is trust, it is amazing what a difference that makes. It is amazing but, things get turned up a notch as the trust factor increases. I think it is just instinct, that sense that this is a good fit, that brings you back for more.

Rights Not Rescue: An Open Letter to the Salvation Army http://rabble.ca/babble/feminism/rights-not-rescue-open-letter-salvation-army It should also be noted that since this letter is a few years old, and The Salvation Army still has this campaign running and website up, they clearly did not heed the wise words of the women behind this plea. Just another reason NOT to donate your resources to The Salvation Army!

It's the only thing I have to know who you are. Yes, it could be spoofed, but there are always risks. If I let someone call me from a blocked number, and give them my address, let them in here and they do something to me, I have NOTHING to contact the police with. Nothing to go on. To me, it's not different than being picked up by a stranger outside. So for my safety and security, I will never, ever book from the blocked number. I google the phone numbers, and cross-check the bad date section. Many spoofed numbers are out there on the internet, so i've caught many. I know a phone number isn't much, but it's something. What I tell guys who say they want to contact me from a blocked one is this: If you don't trust me with your phone number, i don't trust you with my address. It's that simple.

aside from the legalities of such what about the safety aspect for yourself? What if he drives away with you? How safe are outcalls when you have no address to check? sometimes being arrested isn't the worst case scenario... just sayin'

these tips will most likely apply to other ladies as well When Kissing... 1) do not slobber all over the ladies mouth 2) do not make the lady feel as though she is being sucked into your mouth follow these tips and kissing will be even hotter than ever!

And that would be why you have the right to choose the provider that meets your needs and the providers have the right to refuse those that don't meet their requirements! :)

Yes, potential risk increases with the number of sexual partners you have. It's not the most significant risk however. There are lots of other more significant risk actors which the women and men on this Board avoid. These include intoxication from drugs and alcohol while having sessions. Why? Impairing inhibitions and judgment for example... results in higher risk sexual behaviours. You'll also see clients and providers avoiding bare back intercourse and anal, both of which are high risk activities. My point isn't to review all of the STI risks, it's just to quickly point out that you shouldn't focus primarily upon the number of sexual partners as your primary STI "prevention" concern/strategy. Secondly, once you become better informed, you'll then have to decide what "your" risk tolerance is (e.g. bbbj or cbj). There are various threads on here where people have discussed STI's. My advice is to go to the websites and publications of various public health agencies, where you will get information directly from knowledgable public health and medical professionals. These days the information is provided in a non-judgemental and non-moralistic manner. Here's a couple of sites. The first one is the Public Health Agency of Canada, covering the full range of STI's and STD's, with links to all sorts of other provincial and international agencies such as the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Since you live in Ontario, the second link is to Sexual Health Ontario. Good luck and enjoy yourself :-) And... be just as concerned about protecting your partners health as you are about protecting yours. http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/std-mts/faq-eng.php http://sexualhealthontario.ca

Well Mr Blade, I can see you not getting too many dates. Whose fault is it for being sloppy or confident? Certainly not the SP. And if they don't have your number you don't get to play with a reputable SP. Do you have a work around for this? If so Im sure we'd all like to hear about it. I am most certainly not trying to cause any drama here, but I find your post rather demeaning to SP's. Why would one want to text or call you unsolicited? Has this happened to you with an SP? She is very indiscreet if she has. Believe me no one wants to chat or garner business by being this bold. Please understand that a Mistress and an SP are 2 different relationships. Word would certainly get around if an SP did this and her business would dwindle away simply because of her actions. Unless there is a stipulation of "call me whenever", we have more going on in our lives than chatting up a Gent. You are paying for my time, not my business to infringe on yours. Having said that, sometimes life or an important situation gets in the way and we have to cancel. Rare but it happens. Would you rather show up for a playdate only to have no one home, or her family there? I trust my Gents to delete any texts we may have shared, and be on top of things when it comes to discretion. The last thing we want is an angry call from the Mrs when the anger should honestly be directed at you and not her. I don't think you are hearing that in most cases this is a safety measure. Even if you email me and we book a date, you still have to call me when you are on your way to get my actual location. This is standard practice and if you have been in the game for 15 years you should know this.

Providers "rudely" refusing to answer blocked calls? Probably the same ones that "rudely" refuse to see drunk clients. Really? Her life. Her rules. Are people actually getting "spammed" by ladies and agencies? Hmm... news to me. I guess I'm not understanding these threads that question provider's rules. Every person and business sets basic rules for contact. Part of life. Get past it. My two-bits worth.

There are many reasons men visit SP's. Lets put it this way...if my s/o couldn't cook a steak the way I REALLY loved it, I would go out for said steak. Would I feel guilty, no. Too many people still equate sex and love. It's a shame really as the two are completely different and can cause so many negative issues. I believe more marriages would be saved if less emphasis was placed on fidelity and more on the things you love to share, companionship, friendship and compatibility in every other way. While I value your opinion I have to disagree as again, the 2 are separate entities. Does that diminish the love you have for your s/o? Highly unlikely.

I shall be in attendance as well! :biggrin: Looking forward to it! I'll be the one in the mistletoe thong! ;) Yee haw!

I agree, and prices do not vary significantly in my opinion that they should even be on any list of selection criteria. Once the client has his budget in mind, then anyone and everyone that fits into that budget should be in his viewpoint. And from there, narrow it down to attraction, availability, location, and last before price would be services. I can't tell you the number of people who come to see me inspite of my restrictions, simply because of the way other sps treated them when they called them up, tho. Given a choice between an sp with a higher rate, but who treats you like a welcome guest who isn't a time waster with silly or offensive questions, choose the one with the higher rate everytime. An sp who is patient at first contact is definitely the one to choose to see.

Just wanted to know how a girl becomes a regular girl that you like to repeat with. Is it her looks. Her services. Amazing sex. chemistry or Connection. Genuinely enjoys your company. Make's you feel like a king? Funny, sense of humour. Feels like an old friend. Someone you can talk to about your personal secrets. PM's and emails after encounter. For me it is a combination of Chemistry, and someone who treats me like a king and genuinely likes me, and someone I would like to care about as a friend. Someone who has a good sense of humour and continues contact with me after we meet. Looks and services are not as important as the above. What are your criteria for a girl to become a girl that you would see regularly.

Il Re is right that sex can be used to sell to everyone, and men can just as readily be framed as sexual lures for a product's hook as women. After all, that recent series of commercials poked fun at the idea -- but make no mistake, it was using sexual attractiveness to sell Old Spice to women at the same time it mocked the idea). But without question, the vast majority of overtly sexual selling has been aimed at men. And I think that's for two reasons that both have to do with cultural traditions: men have historically had the buying power and they've been the targets of ads, period; so yeah, it's mostly sexualized images of women that have been used to sell things to straight men. historically, women have been discouraged from indulging their own sexuality, so even when they were the targets of advertising it tended to shy away from anything overtly sexual. Both of those things are changing, though, and I think we're starting to see more balance in the use of both men and women as sexualized objects to sell products and experiences. Now... is there a problem with sexually objectifying human beings? My own answer is... not necessarily. It's not automatically a bad thing to recognize that sometimes, on some level, we really can function as anonymous sexual objects to each other. It's one part of our nature that we can respond to even anonymous and limited images. But it's crucial to also recognize that that's not ALL we are. Otherwise we may come to expect that this one facet of our complex nature alone can encompass and express all we, or members of the opposite sex, have to offer. There are plenty of people who make that mistake. The sexual "realm" offers a whole and healthy landscape of rewarding human expression and experience. Attractiveness is a powerful currency while you spend time there, so there's nothing wrong with maximizing your own assets while you're there by grooming, dressing up, and even adopting a particularly sexual persona. It's fun! And of course, in the sex industry, this is the very thing that you're selling -- allure and fantasy, all that attraction without any complications. We just need to remember that it's a place we and others only inhabit some of the time. If men or women start to think that's where they live 24/7, or if we think of members of the opposite sex exclusively in sexual roles, then we're being immature and wasting large parts of ourselves and our partners.

Nope ... not an illusion for me. A necessary, ongoing, everyday and very very happy part of my complicated life :) Clothes on or clothes off it is all about simple fun and awesome times for me. I do my best to let the ladies chillax and be themselves. Mutual fun rocks !!!! The first time a lady asks me to take the garbage out or I ask her what's for supper then promptly after some spankings I will suspect I am being dilusional and file for a Cerb divorce ;)

I certainly understand your need for caution. In my experience however I haven't met a lady yet that doesn't want me to call or text ? from my cel phone preferable cause my land line doesn't reach the hotel parking lot ;)

to repeat with a lady I need to like them as a person. In other words, I need to be able to say to myself that if I met this individual in another context, I could/would be friends with them. There needs to be a degree of genuine affection, along with sexual attraction. Porthos

It's all an illusion in a sense because when you are with a provider you see him/her at their best and in the best mood and we see you at your best. We are all prepared and ready to delight and be delighted;). Providers give their clients a treatment that they hope will surpass that's clients expectations. With advertising and phrases, such as "Treat you like a king" perhaps shouldn't be taken literally, as they are meant to give you a sense that you will be pampered and treated better than you'd expect, or are used to being treated. When I advertise I try and give a genuine sense of my personality, mood, abilities and desires. How they are read and interpreted will be different for each person.

Discussing the laws themselves and what they mean is useful, but the more important questions is how those laws are used by the police. Some laws, although on the books, aren't enforced for a variety of reasons. For example, ninety-eight percent of prostitution related offenses are brought against outdoor sex workers. They are usually charged with s.213 (the communicating provision). If you're unknown to the police, largely work indoors (except when moving from your incall to their parked truck and/or motor home), and only rarely (very very rarely) move from your incall to their truck I really don't think you have anything to worry about (minus the safety precautions Jessica Lee mentioned). The police usually respond to community-based complaints against particular workers... I don't think you'll be targeted in that way. Of course, there's always a risk, but that's the case with having an incall too. IMHO, you're very unlikely to be targeted by the police. I've had clients drive me places after appointments on occasion and I never thought twice about it. While your situation might be different, no one knows that.

I can generally describe it as a sense that we're "on the same wavelength": during our conversations our minds are compatible; we don't agree on everything, and in fact her different perspective is valuable in itself; but we can talk about stuff comfortably and learn from each other. she's made an effort, prepared for the session, and she's fully present during our time together. she's sexually comfortable with herself and with me, generally uninhibited, excitable, engaged, and I believe she's aroused and enjoying herself during our time together. I feel I can share kinks and oddball interests, that she'll likely understand or recognize what I'm interested in and how that works, and if not already experienced she's game for trying. rather than just a sense of "aw heck she'd be a great friend!" (though that's cool too), she invokes an air of sensuality, the ability to seduce, and for undefinable reasons provokes my own sexual response. I leave our encounter with a smile on my face and a bit of a glow. It's really much less about appearance, and more about personal engagement, openness, and comfort as well as the potential for some kind of sustainable, in-synch excitement for future sessions.

For me, it is all of the above, plus her attitude, personality ( could be part of the chemistry), trust and most of all - my bank account! :biggrin:

If I may interject here... Why would your s/o be going through your texts? Imo this is a breach of privacy and perhaps shows there was already a problem? It would never occur to me to go through my s/o's phone or his drawer that he keeps "stuff" in. I honestly have no idea what's in there, and don't need to know.

I just wanted to say thank you for all the special comments and thoughts, it is really, really appreciated.

Anything is possible, of course I'm guessing but I would say that 99% of the times the number will not be spoofed. Why not put it out there? Opens up a discussion, which is a big part of this board.

When floppy disks were actually floppy. My first floppy drive stored a whopping 85K of information on a single disk. That's a K as in kilobyte, not M or G -- 85K is 87,040 bytes. Your 8G flash drive (which stores 8,589,934,592 bytes) is the equivalent of 89,128,960 of those floppies. If those floppies were stacked they would be in a pile about 312km tall, or placed end-to-end, 1,188km long. Just imaging how many floppies it would take to store your porn collection! 8 inch floppies: and 5 1/4 inch floppies: I remember many a time have a 5.25" floppy, when rubbed the right way became 8". Additional Comments: Thanks, that certainly explains porn and makes a lot of sense. But what about the rest of the north American female population!?!

Very, very interesting... I have done it in the past with a male sp and another hobbyist and even with previous lovers. It brings back some HOT memories. Damn... Just reading you makes me want to do it again. I think I'm going to lol. ;) I guess I love watching, being watched and participating. Like cristycurves said, there are providers out there that would be interested in that type of service... You have already got many replies, which shows interest... Keep talking about it. I hope you find what you are looking for. :) Good luck and have fun xoxo

Avoiding the WOTs and tirekickers is why I'm email only. I'm going to start answering blocked calls whispering... "It's done but there's blood everywhere and there's a dog, what should I do with the dog?" My calls don't come from clients but telemarketers so it should be fun... cat

I'd swear I saw her at Barb's tonight! And just as in "Cato's Night Out" - I think she bought an outfit from the vendor in the CR. I guess she's back dancing :-)

I would bet she answers her phone again, personally I wouldn't give her a second chance, it's just disrespectful.

Great points! Ladies, please don't hold back on giving feedback for fear of offending -- you can't improve if you don't know you're doing anything wrong. In any relationship, silence makes both parties losers.

For several hours, the noisy sounds of courtship and mating were all Joe was treated to as he sat, sweltering in the hot sun, in a boat on the Three Brothers River in Brazil's Pantanal. So when the female jaguar finally emerged from the undergrowth and walked down to the river to drink, Joe was grateful for the photo opportunity. But that was just a start. After slaking her thirst, the female flopped down on the sand. Then the male appeared. After drinking and scent-marking, he approached the female, who was lying in what appeared to be a pose of enticement. At least, that's what both Joe and the male thought. She rose, growled and suddenly charged, slamming the male back as he reared up to avoid her outstretched claws. His own claws were sheathed. "I couldn't believe the energy and intensity of those three seconds," says Joe. The pair then disappeared into the undergrowth to resume their courtship, leaving Joe with a sense of awe and a rare, winning image. Source: Joe McDonald/ Wildlife Photographer of the Year Connor's photography draws on the wilderness skills he acquired over a childhood spent largely outdoors. This female barred owl had a territory near his home in Burnaby, British Columbia. He watched her for some time, familiarizing himself with her flight paths until he knew her well enough to set up the shot. "I wanted to include the western red cedar and the sword ferns so typical of this Pacific coastal rainforest." Setting up his camera near one of the owl's favorite perches, linked to a remote and three off-camera flashes, diffused and on low settings, he put a dead mouse on a platform above the camera and waited for the swoop that he knew would come. "She grabbed the mouse, flew back to her perch and began calling to her mate. It is one of the most exciting calls to hear in the wild." Source: Connor Stefanison/ Wildlife Photographer of the Year "Anticipating the pounce, that was the hardest part," says Connor, who had come to Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA, in search of wildlife as much as the spectacular landscape. He had found this fox, his first ever, on his last day in the park. It was so absorbed in hunting that Connor had plenty of time to get out of the car and settle behind a rock. It quartered the grassland, back and forth, and then started staring intently at a patch of ground, giving Connor just enough warning of the action to come. When it sprung up, Connor got his shot. And when it landed, the fox got his mouse. Source: Connor Stefanison/ Wildlife Photogrpaher of The Year On 29 November 2012, Sergey received the call that he had long hoped for. Plosky Tolbachik, one of two volcanoes in the Tolbachik volcanic plateau in central Kamchatka, Russia, had begun to erupt. "I've gone to the area many times, but it had been 36 years since the last eruption," he says. "So I dropped everything and went." The only way to approach it was by helicopter, but extreme cold meant Sergey had to wait until it was warm enough for the helicopter to take off. Flying towards the volcano, the cloud of ash, smoke and steam was so thick that he couldn't see the crater. But every so often, a strong wind blew the clouds away, and he could see a 200-meter-high fountain of lava spouting out of the crater and fast-flowing, molten rivers of lava running down it (some of these would travel 10 kilometers, sweeping away everything in their path). As gusts of hot air buffeted the helicopter, Sergey worked fast, strapped to the open door. "I just kept shooting, kept changing lenses and camera angles, knowing I had this one chance, hoping that I'd take one image that might do justice to what I was witnessing." That was indeed his last chance. At 1am a new explosion happened, the ground rumbled, huge lava bombs threatened the campsite, and a heavy rain of ash and smoke made it impossible to take pictures. Says Sergey, "I have been to many places and I have seen many extraordinary things, but witnessing the Plosky Tolbachik eruption deeply impressed me." Source: Sergey Gorshkov/ Wildlife Photogrpaher of the Year One night, Udayan camped near a nesting colony of gharials on the banks of the Chambal River two groups of them, each with more than 100 hatchlings. Before daybreak, he crept down and hid behind rocks beside the babies. I could hear them making little grunting sounds, says Udayan. Very soon a large female surfaced near the shore, checking on her charges. Some of the hatchlings swam to her and climbed onto her head. Perhaps it made them feel safe. It turned out that she was the chief female of the group, looking after all the hatchlings. Though he saw a few more females and a male, they never came close. Gharials were once found in rivers all over the Indian subcontinent. Today, just 200 or so breeding adults remain in just 2 per cent of the former range. The Chambal River is the gharials last stronghold, says Udayan, but is threatened by illegal sand-mining and fishing. Source: Udayan Rao Pawar/ Wildlife Photographer of the Year The fact that most images of polar bears show them on land or ice says more about the practical difficulties faced by humans than it does about the bears' behavior. With adaptations such as thick blubber and nostrils that close, polar bears are, in fact, highly aquatic, and they spend most of their time hunting seals on sea ice and are capable of swimming for hours at a time. Paul took his Zodiac boat to Hudson Bay, Canada, in midsummer to rectify this bias. He scouted for three days before he spotted a bear, this young female, on sea ice some 30 miles offshore. "I approached her very, very slowly," he says, "and then drifted. It was a cat-and-mouse game." When the bear slipped into the water, he just waited. "There was just a flat, world of water and ice and this polar bear swimming lazily around me. I could hear her slow, regular breathing as she watched me below the surface or the exhalation as she surfaced, increasingly curious. It was very special." The light was also special, but for a sinister reason. The midnight sun was filtered through smoke from forest fires raging farther south, a symptom of the warming Arctic the greatest threat facing the polar bear. As more and more sea ice melts earlier and earlier every spring, it becomes harder for the bears to hunt the seals they depend on.

But as Cancun has also grown as a holiday and dive resort, development has reduced the area available to turtles. Today, though, many nest sites are protected, there are turtle hatcheries to help numbers increase, and there is publicity to help local people and resort owners value the natural riches of the region. Luis earns enough from tourism photography to allow him time to document his beloved wildlife. "The turtles are so used to seeing people in the water that they think we're just part of the environment," says Luis, which means he has been able to get to know individuals, recognizing them from the markings on their faces. "This meter-long female, grazing on seagrass, took no notice of me, apart from glancing up briefly." Recently, Luis has noticed what he suspects may be a new threat: at certain times of the year, a yellowish alga covers some of the seagrass. The suspicion is that the algal growth is the result of sewage from the resort, which has already affected the coral. What is clear is that the turtles avoid eating it.

Not sure if this helps, but in terms of the liquor license act in Ontario, any place a person sleeps is considered a dwelling. This is why you can drink beer when you go camping and are living in a tent. It used to be technically illegal. If you sleep in the tent, it becomes a dwelling for the purposes of the law. I would think a trailer, or live in cab would be the same thing.

As I travel just a wee bit I have a few, and they are not what your probably expecting. North Bay - A beautiful quaint city surrounded by water, lots of green space friendly people and super wonderful to relax in - in the summer, however -45 can be just as charming to view the city in - however I don't recommend it, London - It's known as the "Forest City" and boy do they have that named appropriately. There is so much green space and trees that you feel like you are in a city engulfed in a forest. Plus it is FAR enough away from the GTA that people are nice and don't drive like idiots. Saint John - It's no secret that this little gem of a city is one of my FAVOURITE places in Canada to spend time in. From the history and architectural structure of the old buildings to the real people. People will say hello to you on the street with a smile and a short walk down Prince William street makes you feel like you are back in 1800's as you gaze at the buildings. Again another green city with ample trees and green space. Only downside is the excessive fog when one wishes to keep their travel plans. Bathurst - Still enchanted with this city. I have only had the chance to visit once, however It's definitely on the list to revisit. It is so beautiful to see the water from the downtown (the view goes on for miles). More stunning New Brunswick greenery and very kind people. Apparently the winter time is just as amazing as the summer so this I cant wait to check out.

d00d! some of these gave me freaky beetlejuice flashbacks. I'm not sure if that's got me stoked, or in store for a sleepless night ;)

I don't eat turkey the day of but next day, turkey, miracle whip and wonderbread sandwiches and day three cranberry sauce on toasted English muffins for breakfast and turkey tetrazzini for supper! The day of the actual meal mashed taters, stuffing and gravy!

E is for the enticing view as the lady crawls towards you intent on mischief

Pretty good list.... I'd add the following to the mix: - Duane Allman (Allman Brothers) - Nancy Wilson (Heart) - Frank Zappa (Mothers of Invention) - Angus Young (AC/DC) - Richie Blackmore (Deep Purple)

Glen Campbell......prior to making it big he was a highly sought out session player. George Harrison....underrated. Chet Atkins.....hasn't been mentioned I don't think. Jonny Lang Kenny Wayne Shepherd Peace MG

As a player a top five is not an easy feat as I like so many people. Having said that here is a top 5 list. 1. Slash (Ever since GNR he's topped my list and is possibly the best solo player ever) 2. Lindsay Buckingham (Great Finger Picking Guitarist) 3. Prince (Most people don't think of Prince but he is really good) 4. Buddy Guy (Blues Legend that I would love to see play live) 5. Eric Clapton (Excellent technical blues/rock style)
