Yes that's pretty bad. In that case it is important to give to known organizations only. I lost a relative and a girlfriend many years ago from Cancer so each Christmas (only one time a year) I give some money to the Canadian cancer association in their memories. At the same time, I give some to the local association centre (for women, men in difficulties and psychological problems). An aquintance who I had appreciation for known from the business I used to work died from a suicide and I think of that person when I give. I assume nobody would want to give money to these infamous scammers nor do I.

Sincerely straight or bi in 2011 there shouldn't be any tabou, humiliation or shame with the men who likes to receive strap on or prostate massage. I offered this service many times and many men who enjoy it find it normal, natural and very pleasurable. We live in a free world.

It is not very nice to put the blame on these poor women. Many older women are beautiful. If the owners are the one who imports and move the women around from place to place...etc...At this point, I don't see why they would let the girls decide if they want a real picture or fake one to be in their ads. As other said, it gives all legit sex workers a bad name, and tarnish a legit industry. Saying that they don't look good and they are really old won't help. As a matter of fact it's just plain mean.

I have been waiting and didn't read this kind of topic since long time. The info on the blog mentioned was actually taken from the New York times newspaper. Ter has never been taken down. The ladies were making so much money with their ads on there. It was all over the media. Maybe this topic should be moved to the SP only area since the most of the bad things have been done to the SPs I assume. http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/valleyfever/2009/03/theeroticreviewcom_founder_dav_1.php http://insiderescortsecrets.com/wordpress/tag/the-erotic-review/ http://www.sexwork.com/Terd_phoenix.html http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/valleyfever/2009/02/erotic_review_founder_david_el.php

Interesting! Although I think race really shouldn't be an issue and many of them are very nice people I am sure, I find Canada to be very welcoming to them for the fact that many come to Canada with very honest intentions like working, studying and not doing or encouraging human traficking or Asian criminal activities. One of my male friend did legal business in China and he told me they do everything different over there. When he thought he was doing business with one person, they always did business in group. For business transaction, they always sent random people (different stranger) on each meeting in the purpose to start over again and again to screw him up to get a better price. In several occasion, they tried to make him drunk in public meeting or tried to embarass him with comments about his look. They also managed to make him wait by himself in a very warm waiting room before a business meeting. Several minutes later, they called and asked him to come to the meeting room and my friend was all wet, red and sweathing so he could not think properly when he entered the room. They were already trying to get their cheap price fix while making fun of the situation. He have seen clear in the game and he finally didn't do any business with them. It was a small and not very succesful chinese factory. I assume it is just an exception cause I heard other people had very good experiences in their business meeting in China. After all, it means that most importantly race, money or physical attributes doesn't make the person at all. As for laughting at poor people as you mentioned earlier, I guess it's only and hopefully a small pourcentage of the Chinese population that does that.

That's what I like from Cerb, because they don't allow some agencies or other ladies to have multiple accounts and to post bad comments (bogus/fake reviews) about other ladies in the business. Also recently I read that Cerb don't allow agencies/ladies to advertise via private messaging (it must be annoying for clients) and they don't allow the agencies to contact or try to recruit the independent ladies via PM. I didn't know. I knew they care about the ladies, but I didn't know they were ready to go that far to protect them and the community. With all the things going on, I guess it can only be a good thing for anyone with good intentions. http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=19815 http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=16212 http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=32457&highlight=shill http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=13477&highlight=shill http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=39166&highlight=shill+asian

Hello Sweetheart! Thank you for the mini review. You have seen a lot of ladies lol! I understand the point of view about me being presentable, but I don't think I can visit anyone's mom as I have other engagements. Sexually speaking I am open to all the rest :69: :boobeyes: Have a lot of pleasurable fun!

No and they may ask you for freebies several times in order to keep a good reputation. When I first started, I remember receiving an anonymous email asking me if I wanted good reviews to supposedly get more clients from a review board in exchange of free sessions. They claimed to be a group of men who had trusted accounts in terb. I found the whole idea very strange. I never replied this email. After a while I had a client I saw only twice. He seemed very polite and charming at first, but later his attitude was very poor. He was bare-faced too. He kept asking me personal questions during the whole session. Weird! An attempt to intimidate my personal life probably. I tried to turn the session more appropriate and sensual by talking dirty and naturally moaning while we were making it, but he didn't seem to be wanting something sensual which is rare. He asked me where a guy friend of mine lives (he didn't even know him) and where I was the night before while he was on me...etc. It was suspicious and impolite. I do not give detailed info about other people or myself. At our second meeting he tried to lower my donation from 20 Roses. I was hoping not all Asians men are like that. After the second meeting, he proposed a third meeting free in exchange of a review of me. I told him he was not my type of client and I asked him not to get in contact with me again. I never heard of him while visiting and after when I was away. I never heard about him until last month. He called my second day in town and he told me his name and phone number. He claimed to be a good regular of mine when I was coming in the city more regularly. LoL! I did my little search and found out he was one of the freebie guy. At this point I knew he was lying on the phone. I told him I was not available for any meeting. The other times was some other different dude who asked once in a while discounts for a meeting in exchange of reviews. That's about it and enough. Additional Comments: Exactly and also because reviews are 100% anonymous for the privacy of the poster I believe; therefore anyone can write anything about any provider!

It is very cool of you. I have been to few Stella SPs meeting/dinner and as a matter of fact she is a very nice person and she is even nicer in person. :-P

Status on our Constitutional Challenge for Decriminalization From: Sex Professionals of Canada Re: Ontario Superior Court decision Tuesday, September 28, 2010 Sex Professionals of Canada is delighted by Justice Susan Himel?s decision to acknowledge our right to legally practice our chosen profession. This important victory gives us hope that sex work will one day be fully regarded as the legitimate occupation it is. The invalidation of Section 210 of the Criminal Code, which prohibits bawdy houses, will mean that we can ensure our safety by working together indoors. We can now report abuses of anyone in our occupation to the appropriate authorities, without fear of arrest. Ontario sex workers will no longer be vulnerable to eviction or arrest on our business premises. The invalidation of Section 212 (1j) of the Criminal Code, that prohibits living wholly or in part on the avails of prostitution was developed to protect us from ?organized crimes?. In practice, it makes us and our live-in partners, and even elderly parents we support, susceptible to being charged, and serving up to ten years in jail. The invalidation of Section 212 (1j), will allow our families to finally stop fearing arrest. Our employees, such as receptionists, drivers, etc. will no longer fear criminal prosecution. Section 212 (1j) has stigmatized and punished us and denied that our work is a form of gainful employment for too long. The invalidation of Section 213 (1c) of the Criminal Code prohibited ?communication for the purposes of prostitution?, that means soliciting clients in any public place, including the use of cell phones, the Internet, hotel lobbies, bars, and even rooms with an open door or window. We are liable to being arrested for stopping or even attempting in any manner to stop a person or motor vehicle. Subject to the communication law, we are forced to limit our negotiating time with clients, preventing us from having enough time to determine if the client is trustworthy or potentially dangerous. All over Canada, sex workers are calling for an end to criminalization. We have developed workable plans to increase the safety of ALL community members. Our plans are detailed and could be developed to fit communities from coast to coast. We believe in having a process in place to combat youth exploitation and human trafficking, specialized policing services, sex consumer education, municipal bylaw revisions and a system of professional accreditation to ensure all workers are given access to resources and help should we need it. The tools to make safe decisions about our occupation will help combat exploitation in the sex industry, while respecting the choices of adult sex workers. Inclusion is key. Consensual adult sex workers must be included in decisions that will affect our occupation. Business owners and residents must be heard also. The only way this will truly work is if all people?s concerns and experiences are respected. Our opposition?s strategy is to eliminate prostitution, including all consensual adult prostitution. This is unrealistic and unworkable. We do not wish to be further criminalized and driven underground by anti-sex work policies. Under the guise of saving youth and trafficking victims, our opposition is willing to compromise the human rights of thousands of adult consensual sex workers. Compromising the rights of one group to ?save? another is prohibited by the International Declaration of Human Rights, which explicitly states that no part of the declaration may be used to justify the removal of an individual?s rights and SPOC questions the motives of any person willing to harm a woman to save a woman. It is time to put the voices of sex workers at the forefront. It is time to move away from punishment, toward protection. We do not need to inherit other nations? mistakes. We will be working diligently to develop a Canadian model. We would like to thank Justice Susan Himel, the legal team, all our witnesses, Alan Young , Ron Marzel, and Stacey Nichols. We would also like to thank Terri Jean Bedford, Amy Lebovitch, Valerie Scott and all the fine sex workers in Canada who have been working towards this victory. We will be keeping you posted as more information comes in. Sex Professionals of Canada (SPOC) With special thanks to the British Columbia Coalition of Experiential Communities. (BCCEC) We are available for interviews regarding our current constitutional challenge to the Canadian Criminal Code (CCC) sections, 210 (bawdy house), 212(1)(j) (living on the avails) and 213(1)© (communicating for the purpose of prostitution) We are happy to provide you with: The reasons why we are challenging the above laws. How these laws have affected sex workers. How these sections of the CCC have directly resulted in the robberies, beatings, rapes and murders of some of our colleagues. Analysis of this challenge. Mission & Principles: 1. SPOC operates on the principle that all forms of consensual adult sex work are legitimate and valid. We provide a public voice that promotes the validity of our occupation. 2. We assert that one?s decision to be a sex worker is equally and unequivocally as valid of a choice as is the decision to be in any other legal occupation. 3. We maintain that sex workers deserve genuine labour rights, with industry-wide standards defined by sex workers themselves. 4. Our members, supporting members and our allies oppose those who seek to rescue sex workers via court imposed or otherwise forced or coerced re-education/exit programs, jails or camps. 5. SPOC does not affiliate itself with any political party. If an individual politician truly and publicly endorses the above four principles, SPOC will consider supporting that particular politician, but not the party as a whole. 6. We are not a social service organization. 7. We respect the privacy of all members, and no SPOC member may disclose any ?personal? or ?professional? information about any other member without expressed {written} consent from that particular member. 8. We are a volunteer run, social and political group. Goals: We stand for the decriminalization of all forms of sex work in Canada. We oppose legalization because it is always exploitive toward sex workers. Decrease the isolation experienced by many sex workers by organizing sex worker-friendly social events and functions. Publishing a bad date list so that our colleagues can communicate information about violent and dangerous clients with each other. Media and Public Awareness: SPOC members are available for interviews with media and students. We are also available to speak at universities, colleges and conferences. Click here to contact us. Membership: If you are a current or former sex worker, or an ally interested working toward the decriminalization of sex work while having fun and connecting with others, please do not hesitate to contact us. We encourage membership from all communities, sexual orientations and genders. Donations: As an entirely volunteer run organization, we rely on the generous support of our community and supporters. SPOC gratefully accepts donations to assist us in our work. Donations can be made via Pay Pal by clicking the button below or by cheque/money order payable to: Sex Professionals of Canada. P.O.

I think that people in general should take their right no matter what race. I did a little more search and found these statistics below. Indigenous women's organizations have long spoken out against what some describe as an epidemic of violence against women and children within Indigenous communities. More recently, a number of advocacy organizations, including the Native Women's Association of Canada (NWAC), have drawn attention to acts of violence perpetrated against Indigenous women in predominantly non-Indigenous communities. A number of high profile cases of assaulted, missing or murdered Indigenous women and girls have also helped focus greater public attention ? in some instances, very belatedly ? on violence against Indigenous women in specific cities. For example: ° A joint RCMP/Vancouver City Police Taskforce is investigating the disappearance of 60 women and one transgender person from Vancouver, British Columbia over the last decade. Sixteen of the missing women are Indigenous, a number far in excess of the proportion of Indigenous women living in Vancouver. A British Columbia man, Robert Pickton, is currently awaiting trial for 22 murder charges related to this investigation. Police and city officials had long denied that there was any pattern to the disappearances or that the women were in any particular danger. ° In two separate instances in 1994, 15-year-old Indigenous girls, Roxanna Thiara and Alishia Germaine, were found murdered in Prince George in eastern British Columbia. The body of a third 15-year-old Indigenous girl, Ramona Wilson, who disappeared that same year, was found in Smithers in central British Columbia in April 1995. Only in 2002, after the disappearance of a 26-year-old non-Indigenous woman, Nicola Hoar, while hitchhiking along a road that connects Prince George and Smithers, did media attention focus on the unsolved murders and other disappearances along what has been dubbed "the highway of tears." ° In 1996, John Martin Crawford was convicted of murder in the killings of three Indigenous women, Eva Taysup, Shelley Napope, and Calinda Waterhen, in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Warren Goulding, one of the few journalists to cover the trial, has commented: "I don't get the sense the general public cares much about missing or murdered aboriginal women. It's all part of this indifference to the lives of aboriginal people. They don't seem to matter as much as white people." ° In May 2004, a former British Columbia Provincial Court judge, David William Ramsey, pleaded guilty to buying sex from and assaulting four Indigenous girls, aged 12, 14, 15 and 16, who had appeared before him in court. The crimes were committed between 1992 and 2001. In June, the former judge was sentenced to seven years in prison. ° In Edmonton, Alberta, police are investigating 18 unsolved murders of women in the last two decades. Women's organizations in the city estimate that a disproportionate number of the women were Indigenous. NWAC believes that the incidents that have come to light are only part of the picture. The organization has estimated that over the past twenty years more than five hundred Indigenous women may have been murdered or gone missing in circumstances suggesting violence. Given the significant gaps in available information, it is not possible to comment on the accuracy of this estimate. Until police consistently record whether or not missing persons and the victims of violent assaults are Indigenous, and these statistics are subject to comprehensive analysis, it will not be possible to accurately estimate the true scale or the circumstances of violence against Indigenous women in Canada. Amnesty International's own research was not comprehensive. The stories told in Amnesty International's report have been chosen because they reflect the range of concerns and circumstances brought to the organization's attention. Amnesty International's research focused on a limited number of cities in western Canada. Many regions of the country, such as the north of Canada, could not be included in this research. Furthermore, the report only includes case studies in which the families of these women and girls were willing and prepared to have these stories told publicly.

Well! I am glad I shared the info with the other providers as well. Thanks for your input Sexy BBW Vero and AngelaofOttawa! It is good to know, but wouldn't it be easy to find out if it's the same person or not from his name. Correct me if I'm wrong cause I might be. Additional Comments: Unless you guy's don't have his name. In that case I would understand the confusion.

We are in the Sex industry main stream news stories section and most of the Hobbyist member don't have access in the SP area only I suppose. Thanks for the input anyway. It's always nice to have the opinion of other. No matter how significant it can be. Cool! :wink:

I am the one who post for myself (You don't have to put a S for girl). Can you post the link of it please. Thanks.

By TERRI SAUNDERS, Ottawa Sun On Monday, police said they have charged Asad Noor Saleh, 24, with two counts of sexual assault, two counts of impersonating a police officer, forcible confinement, choking, theft under $5,000 and robbery. The charges stem from two separate incidents, one late last year and one in January. ?These were very significant assaults,? said Ottawa Police Staff Sgt. John McGetrick. ?It?s fair to say there was violence involved.? McGetrick said one woman went to police in February with allegations she had been assaulted by Saleh in January. Saleh was arrested and charged before being released on a promise to appear in court at a later date. When his court date came Saleh failed to show up, McGetrick said, and a warrant was issued for his arrest. In the meantime, a second woman came forward with allegations she had been assaulted by Saleh late last year. When police finally arrested Saleh this past Friday, he was charged in relation to the second victim?s allegations. Both assaults occurred at private locations, McGetrick said. It?s alleged Saleh impersonated a police officer in order to gain the upper hand over his victims. ?He advised them he was a police officer,? said McGetrick, referring to the allegations made by both women. ?He (allegedly) did this in order to intimidate them and prevent them from going to the authorities after the assaults.? McGetrick said while Saleh is currently only charged in relation to these two incidents, it?s possible more victims may come forward. ?In cases like this, and it doesn?t always happen, but often we find there are more victims out there,? he said. ?It?s possible that?s what we?re dealing with in this case.? According to reports Saleh works as a personal trainer at a fitness centre on Hazeldean Rd. in Kanata. When asked by phone whether a man by that name worked there, a woman at the centre answered, ?Yes, he does.? The centre manager did not return a phone message Monday. Saleh was scheduled to make an appearance in court. Link: http://www.ottawasun.com/news/ottawa/2010/04/19/13642951.html

Dave Elms was arrested recently on charges unrelated to his website, and this merited a mention in the front section of the New York Times on Tuesday, by Matt Richtel. When I started years ago, the woman who ran the agency asked me if if I?d heard of TER. I hadn?t. I kept to myself, did my own thing, and found my clients through other means. But while pseudo-documentaries still focus on the street walker, sex work moved online years ago, and sites like TER dominate. According to Quantcast, TER gets between 800,000 and one million unique visitors per month, and about 13 million hits per month. As time went on and I connected with other women, I started to hear the stories, about how agencies paid Elms to inflate the reviews of their lady-merchandise. I?d heard that some agencies were shut out by Elms while others were favored, among them NY Confidential, which was busted in 2004 to subsequently unleash the exceptionally sleazy and excessively vocal Jason Itzler upon our media outlets, a man who likes to call himself ?the king of all pimps,? because he?s a moron. It?s counterproductive to take bribes to alter reviews, given that the supposed intention of a site like TER is to give johns at least the illusion of objectivity, but then TER is no Zagat?s. Maybe integrity isn?t such a priority. Then I started to hear about the extortion. Women who had earned legitimately favorable reviews, and had grown dependent upon TER for their livelihood, were being contacted by Elms directly. He wanted money from them too. And he wanted money not to alter those reviews but to simply keep them up. When those escorts didn?t comply with his demands, Elms removed their reviews until they did comply. I?d heard that clients who posted legitimate reviews about these non-compliant escorts were having the reviews rejected or removed. When clients complained, they were banned from the site. I?d also heard that some women were told that they needed to meet with Elms directly if they wanted to keep their reviews up. And those who did meet with Elms were forced to perform sex acts, either by coercion or by threats of violence. The house in Hawthorne, Calif., where Mr. Elms lives is modest, with a well-kept yard. The only unusual signs are a surveillance camera over the porch and the late-model Mercedes sports car parked out front with the vanity license plate ?Will She.? And then I?d heard that women were being raped, blackmailed, and assaulted not just by Elms, but by other employees of his site as well. It was becoming clear to me that TER wasn?t a review site at all, but a means for Elms to freely extort money and sex acts. And if women resisted, there was always the threat of violence. [T]he police were called to a hotel where they found him with 3.8 grams of cocaine and a loaded semi-automatic weapon. A prostitute was there and said Mr. Elms had forced her to perform oral sex at gunpoint, but there was not enough evidence to press charges on that accusation. This is unacceptable. I?d venture Elms and Itzler suffer from the same feelings of sexual inadequacy, what with Itzler?s pimp-king sobriquet and Elms? coke-addled cock, a cock so ineffectual that it requires persistent coercion and the threat of death to become even remotely compelling. * It?s time these women have some form of real recourse. ___________________ Follow-up: Through a trackback, I found this post at a blog called Feminist Law Professors. Referring to the last paragraph from the NYTimes piece, regarding the woman who was forced to perform a sex act at gunpoint, she writes, And the reason there was ?not enough evidence to press charges,? it goes unsaid, is that the testimony of ?the prostitute? about her sexual assault is considered inadequate and unreliable, despite the incontrovertible presence of a gun. Filed under: pressing thoughts | 11 Comments 11 Responses to ?dave elms.? Feed for this Entry Trackback Address 1 Bobolink on Jun 19th, 2008 said: As you probably know, prostitution is legal in Canada albeit with a great many restrictions. One of the consequences of this legality is that women can file criminal charges against such persons and/or civil suits for damages. 2 badinfluencegirl on Jun 19th, 2008 said: bobo i thought it was legal to SELL sex but not legal to BUY it or something like that? 3 Bree on Jun 19th, 2008 said: Alas, we do not live in Canada. What can be done? As long as men and women continue to patronize and promote TER, either by paying for subscriptions, submitting reviews, or using it as a marketing tool, it will continue to wield the power that it does. As of this morning, the message boards over there had been pruned of the few mentions made of the NYT article. But the comments were telling. There was no outrage. There was no ?Gee, maybe we shouldn?t be lining the pockets of a freebasing rapist.?. Instead, there were statements dismissing the NYT?s journalistic mettle. There is an undeniably ugly side to this business, consisting of men who are misogynists to the core and don?t see prostitutes as human beings. I?m all in favor of decriminalization, but the seamier aspects of the business of prostitution are too often glossed over by activists. This troubles me greatly. 4 sandi on Jun 19th, 2008 said: I?d love to see it legalized to limit this kind of seclusion and victimization of women. This bothers me greatly that this can happen to women. 5 Bobolink on Jun 20th, 2008 said: Badinfluencegirl, I think you are confusing Canadian law with Swedish law where it is, illegal to be a john. Prostitutes operate openly, but discretely, in Canada which is sufficient to satisfy the ?communicating for the purposes of prostitution? section of our law. 6 Disconnected on Jun 20th, 2008 said: Don?t know about Canadian law, but Bobolink is correct ? in Sweden it?s illegal to buy but not to sell sexual services. However, before anyone draws conclusions or anything else, any sex work, including exotic dancing, is immensely stigmatized in Sweden. 7 chicagodiva on Jun 23rd, 2008 said: Dave Elms is getting everything he deserves. He developed a site for reveiwing the providers that started out cute and entertaining at first and turned into a huge opportunity to treat women like trash. I had several reviews up on TER and almost all of them where great. I had several clients tell me that they had submitted reviews to TER only to find out that they had been changed or totally erased. On many occassions I would post on the TER board to solicite new clients and would have negative post placed under it each and every time. One client tried to stick up for me and was banned and then TER accused us of self posting. I had no clue who this cleint was but negative rumors where spread that all the clients where comments from me. In addition all my reviews where removed from the site. I for one am sick of this site and the negative publicity it gives to providers for standing up for themselves. In addition, its even more sick and disgusting to know that this man has extorted sex from women to stay on the board. The other part is that women in the business need to stop letting guys like this gain so much power that we don?t control our own bodies and destinies. I feel men should not rely on this site for reviews and expectations for service, because many of the girls that have good reviews only have them because they have given away free sex to clients or the owners of TER. Please stop giving TER the power to control you business 8 Diana of Calgary on Jul 20th, 2008 said: Bobolink, the prostitution laws in Canada were once described as ?bizarre? by a judge. It is not illegal to be a prostitute, but it is difficult to engage in a commercial sex business without breaking one of the prostitution laws. The prohibitions include: 1) soliciting for the purpose of prostitution in a public place, 2) keeping a common bawdy-house (aka brothel), 3) living off the ?avails? of prostitution, and 4) procuring. These laws were originally drafted to give law enforcement the means to control street prostitution, pimping, and the operation of prostitution rings by organized crime. However, law enforcement can and do use these laws to charge escorts and escort agencies. In Canada, independent escorts can (and do) avoid the solicitation charge by only discussing and conducting sexual commerce in private (a residence, hotel room, by telephone or by email). Escort agencies run a greater risk of being charged and convicted with living off the ?avails? if it is proved that their escorts are engaging in prostitution and they are collecting fees from prostitution activities. Agencies are also vulnerable to the procuring charge which is heavily sanctioned if underage escorts are employed. An independent escort can live off her earnings without fear of the ?avails? charge.

Mod A friend new to this board posted my review in the wrong place (in this thread). I believe it's probably a mistake cause I'm not really Asian. Feel free to delete his post if necessary. As long as people know it's just a mistake from his part. Spinner OK, but Asian I don't think so.

I am thanking you for the review, but next time I would rather prefer a less explicit review or no reviews at all for privacy reasons if you don't mind. Reviews are not really necessary in my case. Obviously my business don't rely on it as I earned regulars and I don't do all my extended options with all new clients for safety reasons... I still enjoy to read them. Many guys have been receptive and respectful to my demand and emailed it to me instead of posting them in public. I also had a wonderful time with you. Maybe I should write one about you. I'm just joking. .

Thanks for the review! You are honest and respectful in your presentation. I do appreciate tasteful and non sexually explicit review coming from a gentleman, but I still would like to keep some privacy.
