Honestly no ... Because there are too many risks involved.

Friend - Yes, I have.

Loved one/sister - I wouldn't recommend it, but I certainly wouldn't discourage or criticize them for participating in it either if they told me they were involved.

Daughter - I'm assuming you mean as a provider. I wouldn't recommend it. I would only like to know if she was happy with her choice. If she was I would support her 100%. If not, I would do whatever I could to help her take her life in a different direction.

Son - Same answer as loved one.

S.O. - Depends on her. I never saw escorts or cheated when I was married. If my SO was only interested in a standard relationship then no. If my SO was interested in something more, then yes. I've experimented with threesomes (both MFF and MFM) and BDSM (both as a dominant and submissive). I enjoy them at times just as a typical 1 on 1 sexual relationship.

I would not recommend this to my daughter.
I would not recommend this to my son.
I would recommend this to any gentlemen who (a) has lost the relationship, he presumably started out with, his wife or (b) feels the sense that he is very much alone in this world and enjoying the company of a fine woman bring him happiness.
I would never recommend this to a woman.  I would help her in any way I could, but I would not encourage this as a vocation.

Son or daughter No. But they are both on their way to their place in life.
SO if she wanted to I would be open to discussion but that I can not see happening based on what I know.
Women friends, I would highly discourage it as it would be a complete change from their current life to one of a provider. Maybe it is possible to protect oneself from potential accidental discovery but None that I know would take the chance nor do they need to.
Male friends and or acquaintances, if they are involved I say first try to fix what is missing or broken and if you can not, then the hobby is a much better avenue to other outlets like an affair or strip clubs.
Now at the strip clubs they do seem interested but, many that will do extras at the club have a terrible problem taking it to the level of providing.  There is a barrier that stops them from doing it full time as apposed to an occasional extra.  Not that I am telling you anything you probably do not know but I tell them they could probably work less,  have a higher more stable income and still control who they see.

I told my brother about this site and would happily guide him or any of my friends that are interested in pursuing it.  But I'm not sure I would "recommend" hobbying.  It's their choice.

Honestly, it hasn't lived up to what I thought it would be before starting.  But let me be clear, it has absolutely nothing to do with the providers.   They've all been wonderful.

I think I'm still trying to find my groove with this.

I know too much about the hobby to pass it on to someone I care about. No one in their right frame of mind would do that. Sorry, but to turn on a son or daughter onto this lifestyle is beyond negligent.

That said, if one of my sons or daughters would get into the lifestyle on their own, I would teach them how to be safe and to keep out of jail as best I could. In other words, I would respect their wishes to participate and help them, but would never introduce them into this.

If it was my daughter, I would send her to counseling first.

and I don’t discuss my lifestyle or private matters such as finances, religion, politics, etc. with others. Value my privacy immensely. Would I have an opinion? Yes and that would be not my business to interfere in someone else’s choices.

How does that sound? Fair?

with friends and I am pretty open about my experience in the hobby.  I have talked to many of my guy friends about it and a few girl friens about it too.  I have never recommended a gf to become a provider.  many of my friends have said that if they were women they would love to be providers.  I feel it is different recommending to a guy to see a provider to have some fun than recommending to a woman to become a provider and change her job, career, etc.

8 years ago, I was thrilled to discover such a positive outlet for my seriously engaged sex drive.

As I did well and had very few issues, I did recommend it to women friends who I thought had the right mental make-up to succeed as providers. Some took me up on it and tried their luck, with varying degrees of success.

But now... I actually discourage women who ask me about it. The tenor of the business has changed. I'm still happy to be providing, and grateful for my clients. In no way do i regret my decision to take the plunge.

But it's harder now than it was... and not everyone is cut out for it.

Tabu,

 I would be interested in hearing how you think the business has changed and why you (seemingly) put a negative connotation to it now versus 8 years ago.

I am not so new. I am pretty new to the online part, which in some ways is way easier to get started than when I did it.

In my own opinion, things have changed so much because the economy has gotten so bad. Many ladies get into this now because they are desperate for money, so there are many new faces. But very few look at this as a career, or even take it seriously as an owner-operated small business, so many newcomers take chances and operate in ignorance. Unfortunately that makes this a little less safe for all of us. Even when I was not online I screened my new friends (albeit a bit differently than now), but I suspect many newcomers don't screen... and some of the rates I have seen make me wonder if they'd be better off doing web cam work and not putting themselves in danger via an in-person meeting.

several things that I've seen as recent downturns in the business... the weak economy seems to have unleashed some desperation on both ends of the spectrum.

Providers are making bad decisions based on total dependency on their income as providers... and clients who can no longer afford the hobby are making trouble for providers out of anger and spite.

Without other resources to fall back on, I think the young women who turn to providing right now are putting themselves in a tough marketplace. And the men who can't satisfy their desires have become a rather savage online force. Just look at the general board if you have any doubt.

If things get better, I think we'll see both sides elevate their game. Here's hoping!

did any providers get in the biz due to a reccomendation by their father or brother?

the fact that this obviously affects both sides of this. Thank you for bringing that up!

But yes, hopefully things will get better so everyone can be happy. :)

I don't think I could recommend to someone I care about that they put themselves at risk the way most providers do.   It has nothing to do with "morality" - it's just that it is a dangerous profession and anyone who participates is taking a huge risk.

Now, if it was legal and respected most places and someone really enjoyed doing it - why not?  I have met providers who clearly loved what they were doing, others I'm not so sure about and a few who clearly didn't want to be there.  Unfortunately, desperation makes people do things they probably shouldn't be doing.

And hobbyists take a risk as well, although not (it seems to me) as big a risk as providers.

Still, if someone I cared about loved doing it and wanted to do it - I would support them and try to help them stay as safe as possible.

I have never seen anyone get a congratulations on starting this lifestyle, but I have seen many on leaving it.

I would be honest about the ups and downs without glamorizing anything. Could never forget to mention fear added to your life ....getting caught from many directions; family, friends, occupational, law

I would be more apt to make a man feel more comfortable entering the hobby than a woman

....but then again, I don't think I'd recommend the medical profession, the legal profession, or Heaven forbid my profession to anyone either.  Some choices in life really do fall into the individual choice category, and I think they should be left there...and while we do play under the rader, this isn't exactly a secret society....

If someone who is close enough to me to ask about my sex life (a really short list I should add) should show interest, and ask me the question, I would certainly answer as honestly as I could about both the positive and negative aspects...but the balance of the equation resides with the indiviual....
