...…..when I express my appreciation to the outstanding women who create the erotic fantasies we men are able to live out.  I have had a life changing set of circumstances appear in my life and it got me thinking about what makes me happy.  Like many of the men here, I'm getting old (alright, I AM old), I am balding and long ago lost my studly body  (yeah, I'm old, bald and fat) sheeesh.  This hobby allows me to interact with the most gorgeous, intelligent and simply most extraordinary women on the planet.  I know from reading reviews that many men, like myself truly appreciate these women in our lives, even if only a few hours at a time.  I have been touched by the kind emails and PMs I have received lately from many of you ladies, so please consider this a heartfelt thank you to all of our outstanding providers. Let's face it guys, we have it pretty fkn good!

Especially during this time of year, when it can be easy to get bummed, having these amazing women in our lives gives us a good reasons to give thanks~!

With the right lady, being a hobbyist is a joyous experience and I have been fortunate enough to spend time with a number of such ladies!

I take a time every day to think about what I am grateful for.  (Try it, it helps ones attitude)
I have to agree with mnjohnny we have a lot to be grateful for here.  Thank you fellow hobbiests.

I'm relatively new to the hobby.  The providers I've been with have been wonderful.  Thank you ladies!

We appreciate and are grateful for you as well.  

I think that most thoughtful people will realize there are many providers who consistently endeavor to do their very best.  We spend a great deal of time and effort putting thought into who we are and what we have to offer when we embark on this adventure...what is unique and special about each one of us, what we wish to convey about ourselves, who we are.  I know when I introduced myself a little over six years ago, I listened to the advice of some wonderful people who told me to always be myself.  Francesca is who she says she is, and is exactly who she is in real life.  No "bullshit."  Not ever.  I wanted to offer the best of who I am and produced a website, menu, ads, promotions and photos that I felt expressed that.  The reception I received in the beginning from one or two was negative and hurtful but I worked very hard to prove myself from that point forward.  We are all so very unique and different and the differences are what we celebrate!  We are not here to revel in our weaknesses...we are here to celebrate our strengths!  One not better than the other and certainly not "full of ourselves."  Simply trying to articulate who and what we are in the best way we know how... and to find our place in the plethora of beautiful, intelligent, compassionate, sweet, loving, talented, bright, mercurial and ambrosial women we hope to be for you!  I know most women in this vocation genuinely want to delight their patrons and it is about more than just the donation for their time and effort.  We truly want to please and find the greatest compliment and reward in a return visitor.  

There are sometimes negative hurts that affect us...we are human beings after all.  We make mistakes, we are not perfect.  I have always felt that excellence does not require perfection, so I strive for that and again, do the best I can and try to be the best "me" I can be.  Once in awhile there are those who don't feel that is enough or choose to be cynical or hurtful.  I suppose it is easy to do behind anonymity.  We all sometimes fall short of even our own expectations.  Please remember again, that we are human beings with feelings and sometimes we become guarded because of it.  We are not infallible.  Every day is a new day with opportunities to learn and improve.

I am grateful and feel privileged for having met some amazing people I feel honored to call friends.  I am continually impressed and dazzled by the talented women who express their creativity with photos, ads and websites...too many to name but you know who you are!  I am a bit reticent when it comes to offering those acknowledgments so forgive me.  I think the women in our community are truly beautiful and sensational...and the same goes for the gentlemen.

Love, blessings, good health and happiness to you all this season.  Please be kind to one another.

Fondly,
Francesca

Yes, we are so very lucky to have these "gorgeous, intelligent and simply most extraordinary women" to cherish if only for a short time.

So let's STOP this incredibly insensitive, rude, crass, (insert adjective here) practice of LYING on reviews.

(This rant is of course only directed at those who do that.  You know who you are.)

Do you have any idea what your lies can do to one of these wonderful women?  I recently saw first-hand what it can do.  It's not pretty, folks.

There were some recent reviews of a provider I know pretty well.  She is a sweetheart of a person, and very talented in this profession.  I feel lucky to know her and I've spent a few very enjoyable hours in her company.  I can't imagine why any of her clients would do anything to hurt her.  But at least a couple of her clients posted reviews on TER with outright lies regarding what happened during their sessions with her.  The first such incident was bad enough, stating that she acted in a way totally contrary to her personality and what she offers clients.  She told me she was considering pulling her profile from TER because of it.  But she didn't, she stuck it out.

Then more recently there was another review, which stated she performed an act during the session that she would never think of doing with her clients.  It was so outside of her realm she asked me what the acronym meant.  When I told her, she was hurt, also furious, that one of her clients would do that.  Again she's thinking about pulling her profile. But that will hurt her business as she has many excellent reviews--except those few that are fabrications!

So, guys, THINK about what you are writing about these women who are so wonderful to us.  Don't put stuff in your reviews that will hurt and/or disparage these ladies.  What kind of a man would attack (yes, it IS an attack) a woman in such a way?  "Coward" comes to mind, also "low life" and a few other choice terms most of which might result in this post being removed.

I am grateful for the beautiful women I have met and been able to spend time with. I look forward to spend more time with them and hopefully meet some new luvs....

When I first got into the hobby, I was aware of the stereotype of a hobbyist-provider interaction: throw down the money, get off, and get gone.

I can honestly say that most of the providers I've seen (and every one I've seen more than once) has offered something I didn't expect: a sense of intimacy and care that I wasn't even aware I was missing in my life, and a feeling that they see beyond my never-been-studly physical appearance to appreciate the man inside, and help me to be that man even when I'm not with them.

Thanks to you wonderful ladies - you deserve every good thing that comes your way.

We are most definitely spoiled in the TCs.  By my lights, to say we have it pretty fkn good is to put it a bit mildly; frankly, I have a hard time imagining that it could be any fkn better.  I hate to repeat myself but here goes:  TC ladies are the BEST.

If I were president of the world, I'd make it a law that anyone who wanted to shoot anyone else would have to get to know them naked, first.  They also have to be touching (even if just a fingertip).

I will not become president.  However, I do feel like I'm able to change the world into a better place doing what I do.  I, too, have been touched by many of you.  There are a lot of wonderful gents in the TC as well, and I am quite grateful for the opportunity you all give me to place a little bit of my spirit into your lives

ooxx,
