Lulu lemon cropped pants, yup it's almost summer......somewhere!!

Thank you for sharing Jafo. I'm so very sorry for your past experiences but I'm in admiration for your strength and ability to share. Hugs to you.

Jody, thank you so much for sharing your painful and truly personal story. It takes great strength to speak openly about something so hurtful and personal. In doing so you may have helped someone so be very proud and no one will ever judge you for being open and sharing, if they do, shame on them. Big hugs Jack:) No I didn't know that, thank you and if that's true, shame on him!

I agree with your point about this being a continued discussion but I do think there is enough evidence that child abuse does cause significant issues and ones that can shape a persons adulthood. Like all discussions those involved will have differing and like minded opinions. But I think data, evidence, and similar experiences with those who have experienced child abuse speak to it's affects.

Are you surprised by the latest statistics? http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/health-and-fitness/health/one-in-three-canadians-has-suffered-child-abuse-study-says/article18093004/ It is certainly a sadness and a cause for a lifetime of issues if it isn't addressed and treated. Many who've had troubles or committed crimes may be victims of child abuse. So should they then be excused or at the very least treated differently? Some go through their lives having suffered abuse and live normally without causing or having troubles. I don't think what we've experienced should ever be used as an excuse but perhaps a reason for. We are after all the end result of our upbringing/parenting, environment, circumstance, friends/mentors, economic standing . All these factors play into a persons mental health as an adult. However I think how we are parented is the most important and largest determinant as to how we develop as adults. Or is it simply about Newton's third law, every action has a reaction Your opinion?

A quirky, funny who dunnit- The Grand Budapest Hotel- lots of good actors as well:)

Hugs to you Tom and I wish I were to be that special sp. Who ever you choose will be lucky. Stay positive my impressive mentor of strength:)

Where do you love to have sex- I realize spontaneity will have a lot to do with this, but if you were to plan out a sex session would it be at home, a hotel, on a fur rug(faux fur that is)! by a fire, on a beach, in a shower/bath/sauna, on a boat, in a car, or are most of us pretty vanilla and like the comfort of a bed:)

What is your definition and do you believe they exist? apparently the link below describes ten elements that defines a soulmate. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-carmen-harra/elements-of-a-soulmate_b_3595992.html

As Meg says, Stop seeing him, as Valerie says, record everything. Keep dates, exact times of sightings and if you can alert neighbours or someone you trust to keep their eye out and to report when they see him near you or your home/neighbourhood/property. Records are needed to have anything done by police and the courts. I had dealt with someone over a 6yr period following my every move, calling me, even moving underneath me in an apartment building. My stalker knew the law well and the boundaries to which he could push. Walking by your place for example on a public sidewalk daily even many times a day is legal. But with due diligence, recording these events, with witnesses statements you should be able to get a judge and police to act in your favor should you need a restraining order or if you feel your privacy and well being is threatented. I'm sorry you are experiencing this.

I love it and at the appropriate time with a willing partner it causes sex to be much more intense. I love it when a man tells me when, how and what to do with his cock, or I will tell him what to do with me, what names I like to be called and how to take me. But the explicit verbage I'll save for he and I;)

Yes it seems that the money taken is another way the courts are punishing them because they can't punish them with a sentence. Pathetic in my mind. No minors, no victims it appears so let them be!

when I'm on my knees;) they are all taller. I hope you don't mind me responding:) I love height, I come from a tall family and I am considered short by their standards. Perhaps that's why I'm so comfortable in heels. I have met some very sexy men that are on the shorter side, so long as he has confidence then I'll find him attractive no matter his elevation:)

QUOTE=canuckhooker;589392]First off this thread should have been closed because it started with an SP complaining about another provider's rates. That is a taboo subject on this board. It has carried on with several others jumping on the bandwagon bitching, making some unfounded generalizations about other providers, and clients. 2nd off:) I think Mod is the only one who gets to decide what can and cannot be said, what threads will remain open and closed. 3rd off thank you for being so civil and friendly;) Secondly, as a gentleman I should have no opinion? At the very root, I believe I am part of the industry and can have an opinion, for without clients there is no industry. But to answer your question, not that it is any of your business, I am employed peripherally in a segment of the industry we discuss on this board. And no I am not a pimp, nor directly manage providers in their provision of service. If you are a gentleman, I don't know you after all:) you most certainly can have an opinion. I believe I stated in my response that all opinions should be accepted and appreciated in all discussions .But whether or not anyone is going to take a non-providers opinion seriously in this discussion is another matter:) If you are involved in the business perhaps your opinion will warrant more credence and you are right what you do for a living isn't my business and I didn't ask you. I made a statement and you responded to it as if I was asking you a question;) But I thank you for your candor;)Perhaps I should ask you how to better provide services since you are so informed:) Finally, I didn't dictate to anyone. I stated my clear opinion that nobody has the right to dictate to any other provider what service they should provide, and what rate they should charge. If telling someone not to dictate is me dictating, then so be it. The op stated her clear opinion, as has everyone, but in a friendly way.The whole tone of your post was condescending, bitter, preachy and yes you were dictating. It most certainly wasn't friendly which is supposed to be the tone of this board. We should be able to complain, perhaps in private. But this became a discussion and one worth while imo and in others obviously. On who I am referring to about knowledge of the business model, I am referring to nobody in particular and everyone in general. If any one opens a business, offers a product and sets prices for that product (or service) and gets no customers, then maybe they have to look at their business model and adjust. That is common sense. Perhaps I've misunderstood this whole thread but from what I've read no one is wanting fixed prices but a price which we shouldn't go below, I think that is a difference. This would still allow anyone to set their own prices. Isn't that like any business you have a variety of employees and levels from minimum wage to management wages and above. As for the rest I am against, collusion, peer-pressure, name-calling, blackmailing and any other way that someone tries to fix prices, by dictating to others. Or, people who use that means to try and eliminate the competition. To suggest that it happens in other industries is just wrong. It is the market that lets businesses know what price they can sell at. Ahh I think we are all against name calling, black mailing. etc. and it isn't just the market that allows business to set prices, they set their prices based on many factors, costs involved in product purchase, staff wages, rent, etc, etc. It is also wrong to tell anyone what they can and can't do. Why is it always a man that says the word competition. I have never looked at or thought of another woman in this business as competition and I'm sure I'm not the only one. We are all equals offering similar services and we share many of the same clients, imo that makes us comrades not competitors.. I am about helping, not competing and again I'm sure so are many other ladies. I hate when someone portrays us as all trying to one up each other. Fixing prices is actually illegal in this country, and businesses who collude to do that could find themselves in legal hot water. Again, I don't think wanting a minimum set price is fixing prices. If we all decided that none of us should go below 150 an hour lets say, then many could supply services at 150/200/225/350 and so on. That is only a benefit to all providers, still a lot of variety and nothing fixed:) How is that different than having a minimum wage? Here is what the Government competition bureaus says on the subject.: Thanks for that but I had already read up on it and collusion before I posted the first time:) Happy Easter:) The provisions 45, 46 and 48 of the Competition Act prohibit agreements between two or more persons to prevent or unduly lessen competition or to unreasonably enhance the price of a product. Agreements between competitors to fix prices, to allocate customers or geographic markets, or to restrict production of a product by setting quotas among competitors or other means are considered to be "hard-core" cartel activities, with no socially redeeming features. Anti-competitive agreements harm both consumers and businesses, and enforcing the conspiracy provisions is an important priority for the Bureau.

But yet you seem to feel you have the right to dictate what can be said here:) I'm curious who is it that you are referring to as having lack of knowledge on the current business model? With all due respect :)as a gentleman and one who if I am to assume correctly, has no ties to this business other than hiring or speaking to providers, how can you speak to what is best for us or to what our business model is, what we should charge, how and why?:) I am a provider who could care less about what others charge as I am one who does not need this to support myself or anyone else, so for me there is no competition, I can survive with 1 or 100 or no clients. But I do find the idea of a having a minimum price set a great idea and one that would benefit everyone. I would think all the gents chiming in would be the only ones who could possibly have anything to loose if one was set, after all variations in rates benefit you the client not the providers. But that's my skewed view;) I can speak to this as I have been in other service fields as an owner and a worker and even though there were variables in rates the differences were never more than 5-20$ so a minimum must have been set with possibly exceptions for seasonal sales or promotions. As providers we all should want one another to prosper and not be taken advantage of by anyone, misinformed or undervalued. To protect one another and if we are concerned and coming together concerning the changes in the laws why not do the same for our rates. After all how is making more or not going below a certain rate a bad thing for any provider? My last comment would be to those who think that a client is dedicated enough to stick with a girl no matter her rate-seriously? A client is a client and those who have their favorites and stick to one are the few and far between, the exceptions rather than the rule. Most men shop around and rates are a motivation for most not a girls looks, attitude, or services. If that weren't the case then why in all the years that I've been in and out of this business in all its facets has the first and foremost question asked by a client calling is "so what are your rates" lol! In the end probably nothing will change but planting a seed/a thought perhaps may cause some to think and sometimes with thought comes change. Cat said it best though, as usual:)

I've been told by some that they find a tall woman intimidating and by others they just have a preference to shorter women. To each their own:) I personally think height, especially on women is extremely sexy;)

To my recollection it hasn't happened but a couple of times and admittedly I felt bad and inadequate. I thought it was because of me or something I didn't do. One man was older and forewarned me that he may not and the other was a 20 something guy who had more stamina than anyone I've yet to meet, he needed 3 girls, lol. It's always important to me that I leave the gentleman satisfied and even though I know that doesn't necessarily mean he has to cum to be so, It always makes me feel better if he does. After all in most cases the reason a man calls is to have a great orgasm:)

Trust is a two way street:) If I can trust you to come into my space then you should be able to trust me to come to yours. If a lady is reputable, has a trail, website, reco's etc, then why the worry? The largest part of our business model is discretion and trust. Happy hobbying:)

This highlight was for yesterday but the feeling is lasting into today:) meeting a new client and having a great orgasm with him at the same time he did-so hot and so much fun;)

I hope your day is extra special and filled with all that you love:) Happy Birthday

Congrats on reaching this milestone. I appreciate and respect all you have to say, thanks for your posts and contributions:)

If my service is lets say 210 and you give me 220-you are entitled to your 10$ back, but I will be offended if you ask and yes I'll think you are cheap, just being honest. It is your responsibility to have the correct amount just as it is my responsibility to have all my necessities. Tips aren't to be asked for nor expected but being gracious and gentlemanly is:)

Thank you Savannah and Tracie, I think that's exactly what I need the underwear style harness, I'm excited to get one and to try it. Jabba the gent just needs to lay back and enjoy. Though not every girl gets off on performing pegging, there is great pleasure in it for those of us that do. For me it's naughty, so I think and that alone gets me excited, it brings sexual sensations to the man that those who like say are mind blowing, and watching a man become so aroused and into is in itself a huge turn on, also having the control to increase or decrease his sensations.

Anyone have any details on good or great strap on toys? I've tried two and neither were reliable for staying together while in use. The dildo wouldn't stay in it's holster, any suggestions are appreciated. oh well, I guess I could always use duck tape, lol!

I am one who will only book and discuss my services via phone. However I require all the gentlemen's details via email. It is a shame that trust levels have been broken but it happens and by both sides, men and women both play games. Why is a mystery, childish and not worth worrying about, when it happens I just move on and schedule another activity or appointment:) I have found anyone that wants to play games or who has a plan just to fill up my schedule is the client that just wants to book by email and as Meghan said, it's easy for them to set up a fake email and profile, not so easy to do so with a phone. Having said that any email inquiries I get I respond to asap I just ask them to call if they have questions concerning my services after all you never know who you're sending emails to, when you talk to someone at least you hear their voice and know it's a man. We all have different methods to make us feel comfortable and feel secure.
