Umm not ALL black guys are massive like you claim. So that isn't a fair assumption really. I have a few asian clients that are hung as well, so it can be anyone, not just black men.

I'd hate to have the provider disappointed at how incredibly small my unit is if she's used to massive black cocks all the time.  
   
 In fact, what I'd love to see is a provider who says "catering to diabetic asian gentlemen only" and I would ask her to make an exception.

Anyone else find it a bit off-putting in this day and age? It seems that operating outside the law, some businesses will still operate like it's the '50s. Personally, I don't think I could bring myself to see a girl who had a policy like that even if she looked like Faye Reagan and was giving it away.

Not an expert by any means....but...I can only recall seeing that with BP girls or similar.  Not trying to judge all the providers that advertise there...I'm sure there are diamonds in the rough and all that.  Where do you see this most often?  I've not ever seen it with what I consider to be mid to higher end providers.  Also....I've seen it said elsewhere that this is an indication of a "managed" provider and it prevents competing recruiters, etc.  

At the end of the day, there may be many reasons for this...it may just be a decision based on preference or even past experience.

Still not a doctor....

I don't want to make any assumptions about other ladies, but I find policies like that to be a little offensive.

...when the provider is also black? That practice isn't uncommon as one might think among black female escorts.

I think there is a similar trend of ageism. It is common for girls to seek/only see "mature/older" gentlemen. As a younger guy (well, 35 is younger in this biz as far as I can tell), I've never been asked my age before or during, except casually when it wouldn't matter. I don't know if the racists check either. Not that it matters.

I had an encounter with a black provider a few months ago. It was late, the experience wasn't anything special, but I was dismayed when during the after-chat she went off about the biz. Here is what I remember her complaining about:

Young black men, because she said they are "pushers" and are always trying to get more from her.
White girl providers because they are freaky and do "dirty" things, and ruin it for everyone else.
Asian providers because they are the "dirtiest". and ruin it for everyone else.
All providers who charge less than her, thus dictating what her rates have to be and ruining it for her. "We should all just set the rates, and nobody can go lower". Fascist. Hag.
Everyone in Ohio, because they were all jerks.
Then she said she was gonna get high.

I still laugh at it all, although I think it is sad.  

What else can you do?  You cannot force reason upon them in their hearts. We live in a country where homosexuals can't get married. Where women are still paid less than men for the same work. I am a hetero white male, and although I've experienced racist/sexism/ageism and other prejudices in life, it has never really affected my sense of self. I know a lesbian who has described horrible treatment at such random places as hardware stores and jewelry shops. I don't get it. I have hope for humanity, but at the same time, feel disconnected from it.  

So yeah, I agree with you. :(

Preach! You hit the nail on the head.  

Btw, there's been a lot of discussion happening on some of the general boards about age preference. I was just saying I love seeing guys closer to my age!

 Everybody has their preferences and their reasoning, I guess, but I for one just can't tolerate racism/sexism/homophobia/transphobia.  

And I know I'm rambling but it's early.

....another person can easily say "hey it's just my preference though" and can give their reasoning for why they feel that way and of course we're not always going to agree.  

I treat the hobby pretty much just like my real life I don't not date anyone under 27 unless he's had his time in the military (dunno why that age minimum is a sweet spot for me), there's no such thing as too old for me and i'm like the U.N. I'll accept all races/ethnicities/mixes/nationalities inside of me :)

I see this on more than just BP unfortunately. My thing is as long as I can understand you, and you are respectful, have references, I have no problem seeing you no matter what color you are. It might be past experiences I am not sure, but I can't fathom that it's any good for their business in the long run.

This might be the funniest thing I've ever read on TER.

We advertise publicly but aren't we private business? And gah I do need to look this up later but aren't private business allowed to discriminate who they serve or hire?  
Things were still PRETTY RACIST about 40-50 something years ago.... barely even been 2 generations really so with that being said I am and am NOT put off or surprised by some having a NBA policy (HOWEVER I do know every lady with that policy is not racist).  
I get and respect you can't bring yourself to see someone who explicitly puts No AA/Black Men or advertises it implicitly like ("I only see Caucasian gentleman ages 35+" or "I prefer the company of Caucasian gentlemen 35+") but keep in mind not all of their reasons for it are the same.  
I see many ISO's that state no bbw's or not into bbw's but doesn't bother me (can't equally put weight and black on the same pedestal however I'm making the point not everyone discriminates on certain things for malicious reasons....sometimes it's simply & purely just preference).  

And i'll end it with i'm very an much EOP (equal opportunity provider). :)

to discriminate in who they hire/serve.

If that were the case we would still have "whites only" "no irish need apply" "we don't serve jews" at restaurants and hotels across this country.

I really don't give a shit if a Provider has a NBA policy. (and I am black).  

What I don't like is when people try to hide behind this bullshit of preferences.  

Stick to your guns of being a racist.  There is nothing "wrong" with it - if that's what you believe.

Just don't be suprised when the shoe is on the other foot.  (i.e., you get harassed by a black cop, you don't get a job because you are white).  

See this works both ways.  

So when the cops says "well I just prefer to pull over white men because they speed alot"  

or the boss says "I can't hire white women because they always want to be in charge of things"  

DON'T OPEN YOUR MOUTH AND FUCKING COMPLAIN BECAUSE IT'S JUST A PREFERENCE - SEE HOW FUCKING SILLY IT SOUNDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S.  Ms mocha this was not directed towards you:)

.......also thanks for the clarification about private businesses (think I was confusing them with some private clubs which can and do discriminate).  
Eh also......not every lady who puts that policy in her ads or site does it at her own free will (pimp or certain agencies), had one too many bad experiences and is just scared to deal with them in a sexual manner (ignorant but not racist) etc etc etc
We don't need to like it (seeing discriminatory things) but eh we should have w/e standards we deem necessary in this intimate business especially to make it more comfortable. Sure for some sometimes "preferences" stated/put in place for malicious reasons but sometimes isn't always.  

Black women who have that policy if they aren't managed by anyone i've just heard they don't like black men in their personal life either. I have a provider acquaintance (black) who has never dated a black man in her life and doesn't desire to (and she figured why change that just for the hobby).

....(regardless of his race...including white men). That's a new thing i've been seeing (more than a few times now) where ladies have stated on their profiles/sites/ads that they wouldn't see any clients who have seen (reviewed or use as references or have been given okays/recommends) AA or Black providers. Now THAT I find even more off-putting but of course that's also preference of theirs isn't it? *shrugs*

she has the right to say who may enter her body, does not make her racist.
I'm white and have seen black women and I know some guys would not.
Does that make them racist, I think not, it's called preference

I have never thought that a provider having a preference with regard to age,race, or any other factor is out of line at all. I myself have preferences for body type, age,etc and certainly all hobbyists do as well. If a person has a preference for people their own age or race then that does not make them evil. What would be racist is if a provider did not put out there that she prefered one race over another but did in fact prefer one over the other and took the donation from both but gave one better service than the other.

Why would a hobbyist want to see someone who was not into them, for whatever reason.

As far as comparing this type of profession to others, well that is ludacris, most professions/jobs do not require such an intimate connection being made, physical anyway, with the customer. It is one thing to work at McDonald's and not want to serve a particular race of people, it is another to be asked to be sexual with a person of a certain race or age that you are just not comfortable with.

I would imagine these girls with preferences get enough abuse from people who are "x" ed out so they I am sure have a sincere preference. Surely people would think it proper to afford providers the freedom to select who they want to be with based on their comfort level without bashing that person. One could say a provider was prejudice against those with a criminal history if they chose not to see someone a background check showed was a criminal, it would be impossible to be comfortable in that setting and I would not fault the lady for not seeing that person.

Now I will say that ads with "no black men" do actually put up a red flag for me, I do usually avoid seeing providers, or advertisers lets say, who put that on there unless they have good reviews. Reason being, I believe many of the scammers,cash and dashers,etc, have a perception that black men are more likely to just accept being ripped off than whites,asians,etc, so they don't want any of those people showing up as their potential victims. I would say that perception would be to a large extent prejudicial as anyone can attempt to get physical,etc in an attempt to fight off getting robbed or get the money back from a rip off artist. Have the particular rip off artists experianced more trouble with blacks than other races, well only they could tell you that for sure. If blacks do indeed on the average put up more of a argument with the ripoff people then more power to them.

I quite honestly think the orgy of sorts that this country has had with regard to accusations of racism is beyond tiresome as it is, many times it is just used as a crutch and/or as an excuse. It is really out of sorts for this hobby for it even to be brought up ey???

This whole thread has been very interesting. I confess that I have never thought about how anti-discrimination laws might relate to this business. Probably impossible to enforce any discrimination claim in the courts bc the whole enterprise is illegal. But, aside from that, the questions are still sharp.
Tallslim makes a good point. It seems obvious that this business is different than  a restaurant, or a landlord, or a doctor, or a grocery store refusing to serve blacks - but really - how is it different?
Most of us involved in the hobby believe that the state has no business in criminalizing the purchase and sale of sexual activity because (we argue) "sex is no different than any other service that can be offered for sale".
I always tell providers that they should never do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable. But, if we truly believe that there is nothing wrong with sexual activity for hire - and if the hobby were ever to become legal - why shouldn't the discrimination laws apply here?

I think it's a pretty far stretch for any person to say that they would not be comfortable performing a transaction with every single black person. Nobody has MET every single black person. But if one assumes it will be uncomfortable with anyone of a particular race, not having met them, what exactly would you call that?

Yup, that's pretty much the textbook definition of racial prejudice.

It has little to do with the color of the clients skin. It is profiling the tendency of having to deal with bullsh*t.  Girls looking to avoid negotiating and being shortchanged, and no-shows, and being treated poorly in general have thrown a blanket over an entire race because from their personal experience, that's who's doing it to them.  It ends up excluding good people as well, but such is life.

It's not about race. It's about culture. Turn the tables and it's not inconceivable that you could have a majority black nation with white underclass urban poor who descended from slaves. The "Arabs" (culturally speaking) ran slave ships out of Mediterranean ports  once upon a time, and enslaved people without respect to race.

...as I have been told many times, black guys (more often tha other races) tend to be insulting and sometimes do not pay the bill.  

Man up if your black and do your race right
