So, I have a confession to make. I've been doing incalls now for over 3 years on an air bed. Now, it's not the lay on the floor, camping/outdoor type of airbeds you see at Walmart, but rather the ones only sold online or at bed bath and beyond. It's like an aerobed, but a different brand. I've used Serta and now am using a brand I've had now for 2 years (yes, it's held up for 2 years without puncturing). I also have a memory foam mattress topper plus a down mattress topper...so it feels more like a regular bed. It's also 26 inches in height, and a queen size. I have a headboard made for double-rod curtains as if it's aginst a window, so it looks nice (I'm a decorator by default)
Anyhow, enough of descriptions. The point is, I have a regular client who every time he comes over...seems to annoyingly ask me, "when am I going to get a real bed". And I tell him the same thing....I was never planning to stay here permanently, and don't want to purchase a bed set, when I know I'm going to be out of here next year.
Yes there's no foundation and even the firmest setting doesn't compare to a bed frame (the air flow is remote controlled, so I can easily adjust). But I also spend 1-2 weeks every month in a hotel, so I know how a real bed feels. the comfort level of my bed for SLEEPING rivals the beds at hampton inn, and the sleep number at radisson. Upscale hotel beds in king size are the type of beds I like, and those brands can be in the $2,000-$4,000 range. I much rather sleep on my air bed, than some springy mattress.
So my question is, is this really a big deal to clients? The other day when my client asked me that, I almost wanted to tell him to leave. Get out. Because that's some bullshit, if you want me to have a new bed, buy me one. But he ain't buying fucking shit. I don't know what's with Americans, always suggesting someone to get something, but not dropping shit towards paying for one. Like my friend, always suggesting I buy a NEW car...when he never hears me say anything wrong about my reliable older model Infiniti. But guess who's going to be making the payments on that new car?
Pardon the tangent. Had to get that out there
I hope you didn't shoot your client in the face....
Good Lord.. Get some help girl.. Get some professional help...
Next time, tell him either buy you one or let it go! ( which is a nice way of telling him to STFU!)
I'd have no right to complain.
I'd be curious to see what an air mattress feels like.
In any case, I wouldn't necessarily (unless it was an overnight) be doing much sleeping on it, so the real question is can the mattress support our attempts to shift positions comfortably, etc.?
And I agree with you: Love me, love my bed. 8o)
It's especially fun when you try to roll around and get too close to the side - the bed flips lol.
With that kind of attitude I am truly surprised that you have a regular guy...

First of all, not having a real bed is cheesy, and if she doesn't get that, well, that says a lot. And then to bring the attitude, "if you don't like it buy me a real bed?" WTF? I guess if she's late to an appointment she thinks he should buy her a car.
PS: I'm not against a good air bed per se. I've slept on several and they're quite comfortable. It's the attitude in this case I'm not wild about.
Because I always wear Loubies with 5" heels and I wouldn't wish to cause a puncture.
That was my signature style...
You just blatantly stole it?
I guess calling other people stupid makes them smart - even smart enough not to follow simple business practices.

Hence, its not racism. Same statement can be used to describe people over any nationality, because there are plenty of stupid people everywhere.
When news reporters asked random sample of people where States like Washington (state), Utah, Tennessee, Illinois Indiana, Alabama exist, so called Americans who have Lived here all their lives couldn't figure out where each state are really located and didn't know the capital to each state. Same goes for random people who were asked about who the vice president is, who the state elected officials are, and whether Washington DC is a state or not. Simply put, Americans are not up to par with current affairs and basic knowledge. Blame the awesome American education system for producing so many drop outs, burn outs, and illiterate morons in this day and age. I Are a college educated American citizen, now pass me that bong yo... lol
Only dumb Americans would pay for bottled water. I guess it's somehow different from filtered water from the frig, maybe it has more of a watery kick to it? Lol
Refrigerator water supply lines can rupture and leak causing damage to cabinets floors and any area which the supply line runs through. There are practical reasons for practically everything.
No matter what you brand it, the slogan could read "this [CO's bottled ice] sure beats tap ice.
But her attitude by implying Americans are just too picky SUX to high heaven.
Now if I called her a gussie-mae and told her to go choke on a couch fritter...that would that be racist or just insulting her probable nationality based on her handle? But I won't say that just in case... 
Damn I miss conch fritters...
BTW,wasn't she on the DC Board recently bitching about lack of appts?

Yeah she definitely comes across as Anti American for sure.. But I wouldn't pin it down to particular race..
He's the only one mentioning it which makes him the exception to your local rules.
It could be he thinks it's cute to taunt you about it, which after this long means he's clueless. Might ask him if that's the case, perhaps he'll get the hint to shut up about it.
I've been on air beds/mattresses and don't care for them. I'd rather have a real bed any day, and I play at a level that supports such an environment.
But regardless, you're not sleeping in it so as long as the majority of local clients are not objecting and actually return, then his opinion is worth what you paid him for it.
Personally, if I'm paying upwards of $400 an hour for a full GFE experience, I wouldn't want to walk in and see an air mattress on the floor. Seems cheap and tacky and I would probably excuse myself and leave. Then again, if you're Olivia Munn in heat, I suppose allowances can be made,
oh trust me, even when i'm staying at the hyatt regency, i still keep my prices reasonable. however, it probably wouldn't make a difference.
people who come to the US calling Americans stupid and/or unreasonable. I would not see you just for that. It's called culture. Every race and country has culture in how they live and how they do business. I hope well traveled isn't on your website. And using racist comments, (and yes, it's racist,) is simply an excuse for you not to have to take action or responsibilities for running a good business.
How much do you charge? $20/session? Yeah, maybe the guy needs to spend more. But if $250 plus, or if you call yourself high end, get a bed. Don't call Americans naive and stupid if you can't even figure that out.
You don't have to get a real bed, but know there are plenty of ladies who have real beds and will be happy to take the business. It's your responsibility to listen. If an air bed suits you, go for it. But don't expect it to suit your potential clients. At least he told you and still came back.
Ugh. Racist people...
I don't know what's with Americans, always suggesting someone to get something, but not dropping shit towards paying for one.

You need to be running the other direction!

Can you send us the link of this amazing airbed for reference?
The content of your first three paragraphs were at best, tolerable to read. Your final paragraph sums you up. You are an Idiot. If you do not like Americans you should simply Get Out. The next time you decide to as you say "get that out there" don't go under an alias.
Since this is how you really feel, you should not be afraid to tell the TER world who you are so you can get a better following for those that like Ignorant Providers. Come out of the closet and let us all know who you are so we can see your incredible reviews and quality of your website.

That's like saying the quality of the commercial is going to deliver you a superior product
I don't think she's saying she hates America, she's just griping about a particular cultural habit. Shit, I've said things like that about other cities. For example, why are drivers in LA so aggressive? That doesn't mean I hate LA or the people in it, I'm just not used to getting honked at and having people ride my ass that much.
If she had said, "What's wrong with you men in DC", or wherever she's based that would be different. By specially say Americans, to me she is making a statement about ALL Americans.
And she seems to have a evolving pattern of complaining about her business.
But that's just how it made me feel when I read that part of her rant.
Steph xoxo
I don't think it's at all fair or good to blame Americans for the fact that she doesn't have a bed. She didn't say stupid, which is good, but materialistic for wanting someone who runs the entire business by the bed to - have a real bed? That's not materialistic. That's asking for the most essential item in a sex related business. If she's ok having an air mattress, and it works for her rate/clientele, that's great. But to blame her business supply on an 'American who demands but doesn't pay for it?' Because they're American? They are paying for a service where it's the general practice to have a real bed.
Sure, I can say 'if you love me, you'll have sex with me on my wooden floor' but there are plenty of other people who have beds, and he can go pay and love someone else just as much. It's not the consumer's job to purchase a business' supplies. It comes out of the business. Unless it's on her site as an extra charge for a real bed, it's her job, not the "American client" who is asking for a simple necessity.
It's a basic American right!
There are more vehicles and less lanes.
And they're so aggressive they skew the balance. No wonder the place is known as Assachusetts. In fact, I hear there's one of them who drives a Buick who delights in running non-Massholes right off the road, then leaves the scene cackling with glee. After that he has a hot toddy and slumbers innocently on his water bed.
Compare the statistics far more road-rage shootings on the east cost compared to the west coast.
You seem to have quite the temper...
HA! And she wonders why no one wants to see her. Hahaha
All we really need is a throw pillow so your knees don't get sore and a chair for me to sit in. I prefer my bbbj sitting while she's down on her knees so I can see her face while she's blowing me. If you want me to daty, and the air mattress is fine for you for that then I'm good. A chair, a pillow and an air mattress will do the trick with me.
If you like the air bed to sleep on, keep it. If you think you'd have better sex on a trad, buy one.
Just because someone suggests you might like something doesn't mean they have to buy it for you. Spend your money on what you want to have in your life.
last year, i had a choice of purchasing an entertainment set, or a new bed. i went for the entertainment set because i liked watching movies by the fireplace. plus the bed DOES NOT flip over when 2 people are on it.
I once tried to hook up on an airbed, nice one too, and it kept flipping over and deflating. IMO Just go buy a bed, if not don't tell everyone that you don't have one.
Hundreds of dollars an hour and you can't even buy a $100 bed off Craigslist? I don't care how nice it is, it's still an airmatress and people will still notice. As you have seen. What about all the other guys that don't have the guts to bring it up? Some things are personal preference and all, but I don't think this is one of them.
Air beds are hard to have good sex on. Their hard to balance on, they move around a lot, and the bounce back is hard to follow. This is one of those very easy things to take care of and not worth the money you'll save in the long run for your business or your presentation of your persona.
ewww, do you know what a $100 mattress buys? blood, cum and bedbugs! thats the point in my post i was trying to make. sure there are cheap mattesses to be had, but they don't last...and could be potentially dangerous exposing metal springs, being squeaky, etc.
the good thing about airbeds versus mattresses...is i don't have to worry about dustmites. i can wash every layer from cover to cover, which is great for allergy/asthma sufferers like myself.
again, i am holding out for the $2,000 mattress. i want to pay cash and own it, just like everything else i have (car, electronics). but, i am moving soon and don't feel now (nor the last 3 years) is the time to buy it. when i move into my new home, that will be the right time.
Then quit your bitching!!!! You were given great advice by more than several people in here but you can't be ripped away from this phucken good air bed. Keep convincing yourself with that bs, us on the board and the clients that told you aren't impressed by the shower curtain rod on the wall, mattress topper, bedding that simply STILL does not make it an actual bed.
You might as well WARN Dudes on your ads about this. If I was a dude I would be pisssed.
They should pay you with monopoly money since you make believe plucking on an air bed is real nice.

What up?!
An air mattress?!?! REALLY?!?! I have a nice Aerobed air mattress and it's a long way off from a regular mattress. You need to get real and stop being so cheap. It's like going to see a hairdresser and they have kitchen scissors instead of quality ones that they make for hairdressers and barbers.
And your comment of "I don't know what's with Americans, always suggesting someone to get something, but not dropping shit towards paying for one." Seriously?? Your American customers are paying you and expect you to provide some basic levels of service...like a real bed. If you want to be taken seriously in the business and charge higher rates, like you always complain about, you have to look and act like you're higher class.
But, why should we be surprised about this post coming from you? Every one of your posts are negative and talk about how bad and cheap your customers are. I'm not surprised in the least after hearing this post. Here's a newsflash for you...maybe it's you not them. Maybe you should leave this line of work. You don't sound like you like it and it sounds to me like you're not good at it
