now that backpage has hit the dust ...and even though i never used it. wondering besides TER what reputable guide / ad sites are out there. only one i know about is Eros. sometimes i have found girls there first and only then discovered their TER reviews.
and like any ad board, you'll find some ads are legit and some aren't. BP hasn't really hit the dust, many of them just moved their post to the Women seeking Men section. Eros I'm aware of and it too has a mix of real versus fake. Some of the others I've seen - Cityvibe, Slixa (which I've used), Sugar Nights and My Provider Guide all seem to be very active.
As with any ad, you have board, you have to do standard research to weed out the good from the bad.
