I am about ready to take the plunge and make a call to Julie's of NY since she seems so popular here and has alot of girls.  But I have a question, how does the whole thing work?  I call, get asked a bunch of questions then given a place to show up?  When I am there am I sitting with a bunch of dudes and picking from several girls?  or is it a more private setting??  I need to know because I don't like surprises and I don't really like hearing someone else banging in the next room.

I will call them(Julie's) If I was you and ask them any questions you may want them to ask.
I would not give you any details here due to the upcoming convention and the LE activities in the city. That it is just me
I don't know what the rest of the gang think

I found Julies a very comfortable place to get started.

They will verify you to ensure that you are not LE.

I would not ask a lot of questions because that can seem suspicious and there are certain things they just cant say.

It is a private setting, they are very carefull that no client sees another client. So you won't see any other guys other than a male host that is sometimes there.

You may sit in their greeting area for a short while and meet girls there or you may be escorted to a room and they will have girls come in to meet you.

After you choose, the girl may say get comfortable and then step out, get comfortble means get naked.  This is sometimes used as further verification that you are not LE. She will be back soon. If she offers a shower it is a good idea to accept, then she will know you are clean and will be more intimate.

Have fun.

How risky is it going in?  Have they ever been busted and were the Hobbyist charged?
