I am the same way. I will do MSOG for 90 and 120 minute sessions and I like the gent to let me know that's what he's after. But, like you, I don't advertise it or even confirm that I offer it because I sometimes will feel like I have to rush the first one to get in two, or things might just take a different turn. I'd rather him let me know he's interested and let things unfold. That being said, I can't imagine having a gentlemen finish early and then saying "sorry it's only one shot."

That's a great idea, fortunateone!

I think it goes back to what Cato was saying. Let's say the vote turn out with a 75%..... In FAVOUR to the threads. Then the 25% of SPs who don't want their pictures posted will be forced to endure. In OPPOSITION to the threads. Then the 25% of SPs who don't mind their photos being posted will not be able to do so. I like Annessa's suggestion of no harsh board rules or anything. Just practice the respect to ask a provider first before reposting her photo.

I have admined a board the size of CERB, and having had this experience, I'm just floored at how well-run CERB is. I don't know how they do it.

For the most part, I'm impressed with the direction of the thread and that it seems we came up with the consensus.

I don't want you to stop posting in this thread, Cato! And I'm glad you checked in.

I'll share a funny story: It was my friend's baby shower and we baked her a cake! After two of us collected in the kitchen, we thought it would be fun to ask her to close her eyes, and then put the cake on her lap and ask her to open them!!! Sounded like a good idea at the time......... lol Anyways, I left the kitchen with my big-ass cake knife (like the one pictured below) and asked her, while holding the knife, to close her eyes for a minute. I didn't realize how creepy it must have looked! Moral of the story: Don't ask people to close their eyes while holding big, scary knives!

Sorry Pete, I think I misinterpreted your post. I thought you were asking if we have to ask permission to post pictures in the "best of" threads, what's next? We have to ask permission to post a picture in the recco thread? Sorry for the misinterpretation!

I don't know if it's like this for everyone, but I have to approve each comment and posting on my profile page. I like that. According to mod, you have to ask permission first: http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=33777 I think recommendations and pictures are great marketing tools for the ladies, but I still think it should be up to them. They may not be looking for new clients or they may want to do so in a specific way. Moral of the story: just ask :) I'm sure it'll be appreciated!

Thank you for your post. I have no problem in turning down clients if I feel we are not a good fit. If I took on every client who wanted to see me and took the attitude "the client is always right" I would be a very miserable massage provider. I love what I do because I do what I enjoy only, and I seek out the right clients.

Absolutely! If hobbiests and providers want to do the threads and the providers approve the use of their pictures, go for it! I have no objection to that whatsoever. We're all adults here. I'm just expressing the way I feel about them and while I think quite a few providers feel the same, not all will and that's fine. I can't tell anyone how to feel about something.

I'm very interested in what my clients want, in terms of the services I provide. I have sought advice from CERB in the past, such as my new lapdancing endeavour, and I also appreciate open communication from my clients on what they enjoy during a session. I'm also very good at communicating what I enjoy, what I like, and what makes me feel good. Many unselfish clients care about that and appreciate that I engage in open communication. I don't believe the client is always right. I don't believe any service provider on here would believe her clients are always right. This forum on CERB exists to engage in discussion and that's exactly what I'm doing. I'm not commenting on how hobbiests should spend their time on CERB, but rather I'm commenting on how I like pictures of myself to be used and what makes me feel good. Again I will suggest what Annessa brought up, and that is to ask the lady permission before posting her picture in the thread. I will also note that I find your posts to me to be quite condescending. I started this thread to engage in discussion and it's very possible to do so while still respecting each other.

You're challenging me to better state my position, and I like that! To be perfectly honest, I don't post my pictures so guys can drool over a collection of ass pictures. I post them for potential clients to get an idea of what I look like and what I'm like! That being said, I do understand they may want to fantasize about my bum/breasts and that is why I do post pictures. But I don't want to be a part of a roster. To make a comparison, when I walk down the street dressed in a nice outfit, I don't expect men to not notice. I am realistic lol and I have no problem with men noticing. But to stare to the point of making me uncomfortable is rude IMO. That is what I meant about thoughts vs actions. I don't want to be the thought police!

You can't control thoughts, but you can control your actions :)

Thank you for this. The thing that bugs me about this thread is that it's hobbiest after hobbiest defending the threads without appreciating what us ladies are saying. I think that instead of defending, hobbiests should take a step back and listen to what we are saying! Thanks again.

I'm not sure why new thread was started but I think hobbiests should pay attention to what providers are saying. Annessa made a great suggestion in the main thread. Let's keep talking! :)

I like Annessa's suggestion that a hobbiest ask permission before posting a picture or even ask providers how they feel about starting a new thread, as we all did when we started our own. You are right, Annessa, that no one is questioning Cato's contribution. I've known Cato for 3 years, seen him several times, and I have nothing but respect for him as a friend. But he's not God and this isn't the church. This is CERB and we're allowed to question things!

Do you mean the physical stamina that it takes to have sex? Or the delay or orgasm?

Annessa says it better than I could have: I don't want people to just be looking at a thread on bums and see my bum. I want potential clients to look through my albums and get a good sense of what I look like, and maybe even a bit of my personality. The main difference between a provider posting a picture and you posting a picture is that it is HER picture. She owns it. I know that once a picture is out there on the internet, you can never get it back, but I think it's still respectful to allow the woman or man to have control over it if they so desire. An important distinction. I have no problem with this thread because 1) It's clearly a roster of women, not body parts and 2) All the women approved it by consensus.

This is how I felt. When I look at the "beautiful bums" thread, I don't see beautiful bums, I see beautiful women! I still don't understand the "body part" mentality. I also post photos to advertise, and while I LOVE massage, I actually don't like having my pictures posted here. I'm very much a one-on-one woman meaning that I like to be focused on one man and have one man appreciate me in return (at any given instant lol). That is why I didn't like stage shows while stripping and why I don't like posting the photos on here. Heaven to me isn't having a bunch of men drooling over me. It's being one-on-one and having him appreciate me and flatter me. That's heaven to me! I know other women are different, and I appreciate that some like a lot of attention, but I'm not one of them.

All these women show is that working indoors isn't perfect. It's not. There is still the risk of violence. That being said, no one can reasonably argue that working out of a bawdy house is safer than the streets or going to clients' houses, speaking generally of course. Just one quote from the article: "MacLeod said she worked with girls as young as 12-years-old." It's obvious these are not your typical escorts. There are already laws against child exploitation, we don't need bawdy house laws too.

My favourite sexiest memory is when I was 17 and I got my first boyfriend. I remember the first time making out with him and he got an erection. We never took any clothes off, but feeling him hard through our clothes, something I've never felt before, was so exciting! Number two would probably be at work one day. A sexy co-worker of mine confessed me to me that he hadn't gotten laid in almost a week, and because he was so busy he hadn't even had time to masturbate. He said he couldn't concentrate on work or anything. Feeling frisky, I made an offer. We waited until everyone had left and did it right there in the office!

Thank you everyone for your contributions. I read them all and they were very interesting to read. It was particularly interesting to note the hobbiest vs. provider contributions in this thread.

This is what men's magazines say, but I don't believe it. The only customers I ever "hooked up" with were ones who bought many, many lapdances from me. You say you need to treat the girls with respect, but also not buy lapdances. To try and take up a woman's time when she's there to WORK and MAKE MONEY is disrespectful. If you don't want a lapdance, that's fine, but don't waste her precious time.

I just wanted to clarify that I do all bookings over email. I don't know what number T'storm has been calling. Are we allowed to participate? Two of my favourite CERB members to talk with are Cato and Ulixestrojan.
