Wow, after having used TER for 6 months now, I see things in a different light.

Seems like escorting is more prevalent than I had previously thought! (my impression before was that escorting was limited to either 1-Heidi Fleiss type high $$$$$$$$$$ girls or 2-hollywood/vine street walkers.

THere's a big spectrum in between.  

TOday, at the post office, I saw a hot woman, and my first thought was... "she looks like a 9/9.. $$$$"

Yikes!!!!  Sorry, ladies... that's how the male mind (mine, at least) works

you've only been at it 6 months.

After a couple years, you may realize there's more than the body involved.   Her attitude is 50% the price, and 100% of repeat business.

Hobbyist arent the only ones that think that way, everytime I go through the lincoln Tunnel and see the term full service, I smile or flirt with male attendants by asking them can I really get full service over here = ) I think most of them catch on right away, because it always seems to brings a smile to there faces everytime.

you could SPIT at them and still get a smile.  Or at least a leer.

You're right on!

I'll be at a Sabres game, and see men with suit and ties..and think. I bet hes a hobbyist ! He so has the look ! What look ? I haven't a clue.. LOL.. But I think it alot

check under your hood if you asked me with one s&*t-eating grin my dear!  I gotta get back to NYC!

I'd put my puck in your goal any day.

2 minutes for hooking !

Once you are in the hobby, life will never be the same. It's sort of the very old saying, "How can you keep them down on the farm, after they've seen gay Paris?"  I for one, will NEVER go back to the straight and boring life. Hobby on!

I was driving in my car and I saw someone who passed me whose license plate had GFE for the three letters. LOL

quip, you're not the only one thinking this way; I know all too well those thoughts about random women being providers; I too thought the same thing about only high rollers and streetwalkers; then I discovered there is a market at every social/economic level.

...and I can never get accustomed to seeing anything hobby related being openly used in public, such as a prime time tv crime drama quoting the online rating system, or a public ad in a mens' magazine, it just doesn't seem right, only to realize, well if dumb little me could find this and other websites so easily, anybody else can too

while Ciara's talking hockey, I'm always amused that our Columbus BlueJackets use the abbreviation CBJ:
"who wouldn't cheer for the BJ's, even when they suck!"

I'm hooked. No hope?! Better cancel the yearlong retreat to the Tibetan Llahmastery?

Quip, when you start to think that way, it's no longer a hobby!

Being in this "hobby" now for just six months, what I notice in America are all of the untrue stereotypical references in the culture about hobbyists and providers (of course we're not called that!)  Either it's ultra glamorous or very seedy.

I needed change, and the wife looked at the husband for money. He said, she doesn't give me any cash. I said,"Well, it'll keep you out of trouble," with a bit of a naughty smile. I'm not sure either one of them got what I meant, but it amused the hell out of me. LOL.
