I know this is a sensitive topic for Hobbyists and Providers alike. However, I've only been hobbying for several months and need some advice. For my fellow hobbyists, how often do you tip and how much is considered appropriate? Should you tip all the time or only for your favorites? When a provider's website mentions services as being all-inclusive, does that mean tipping is not allowed?  Question for the providers.....would you feel offended if a tip was not included? If it was not included or if the tip was "small," would you not feel good about making any future appointments with that particular client?

I don't tip on the initial visit. Yes i tip those whom i feel go above and beyond. There was a time where i didn't tip at all due to some providers EXPECTING it.

In a nutshell, tip when YOU feel like it. Don't be coerced into it. Many feel that the prevailing donations are indeed ENOUGH.

Ask mrfisher. He's good with this sort of question. Warning however;he's considered a MANGINA. :-)

I'm really tired, but since you asked:

I do tip, usually on 1-4 hours sessions, but not on longer sessions, and only when I was very satisfied with the gal.

But, each to their own.

I am the founder of the manginas, by the way.

The best tip is a nice review and a return visit. Honest. Really.

Tips should never be expected, and should have no bearing on whether she agrees to see you again.

Do a search for tipping and you will find a myriad of opinions.

Forget the gifts,give her the cash.Its your girlfriend fantasy about the "gifts",but a girl only needs  some much perfume and why send her to the gym for extra hours working off the Godiva!And the sexy outfits are for you not her,when you leave they put on the sweats.

I prefer men's flannel pajama bottoms to sweats myself. They are just so much more comfy.

Gifts can be a very sweet gesture though. I laugh at the whole idea of "wishlists" though because those aren't gifts, that is just a shopping list for someone else to fill.

Two of the nicest gifts I've ever gotten was a book by a guy named Terry Pratchett, and a set of leather scented candles. The book was given to me because the guy actually read my entire website (he's one of the few lol), noticed my oblique reference to Douglas Adams, and figured that if I was an Adams fan, I would love Terry Pratchett. As it turned out, he was not quite, but almost reasonably quite entirely correct. (Only a Douglas Adams fan can appreciate that one lol) The leather scented candles came from a man who I happened to mention in passing that I loved the smell of leather. I don't even recall the comment, but he heard it and remembered it.

Its not about the dollar value of the gift, in both cases it was the personal nature and thoughtfulness of the gifts that mattered.

But yeah, gifts are not necessary in the same way tips are not necessary. They can be a very sweet gesture, but I'd rather just the return visit. That is a far more gratifying way of saying 'thanks'.
