I like all the posts. It tells me that the community is coming together. Yea, there are always growing pains, but backchannel groups do help the girls (could make for quicker references for us anxious guys and anything that keeps the ladies safe I am in favor of). Guys can share stories (yes, we are really just boys in men's bodies) and perhaps "like" guys can find out who the other clicked with so we can save a buck or two and keep from having a less than outstanding experience(I know when I see a reference from a few guys I will probably like the lady, versus some other guys).

Who cares if there are other groups, cliques, etc.? Has it stopped anyone from having a great time? No. Unless they are so hung up in the drama it stops them from meeting their goals.

I don't care for the drama, but it needs to happen. People need to vent. But there has been a lot lately. I'm thinking my jacuzzi and a few bottles of Veuve amongst the people in stress may be required. (I can drop the temperature outside down by 20 degrees if needed).

And are there luker guys and under the radar girls out there doing well? Yep. I see a few regularly. That don't play into the drama. So nobody is hurting anyone except those who hurt themselves by playing into the drama. A waste of time.

And what about new girls, new agencies, rates? Well it is a free market. And no one is hurting anyone. Market's change. So business models need to change.

My wish would be that the ladies do get to know each other better. And that the guys do too. And they watch each others back. And we do call out the shills. Too many bogus reviews. Too many posters hiding under a veil. It does not keep things safe. And increases the drama.

Yes, we are not all going to like the same "flavor" at the end of the day, but we can be supportive of each others goals.

Ladies have the right to make $ and set their price. Guys have a right to choose the hottest ladies and what they want to spend, or not. Is that basic or what!

The rest, well is moot.

Have fun. Ignore the rumors (heck, most are figments of peoples minds anyway), save the drama for a book, and if someone attacks, let their post stand alone without a response. LEt them live an unhappy, unfulfilled life.

Measure your life by how full the glass is and be satisfied. You can never be satisfied if you measure your life by how empty the glass is. Trust me, you will smile more if you are thankful for the little things and ignore the drama and mean people.

Peace,

I raise my glass to you and your post!  Thank you for putting it into perspective for everyone.  Hopefully, people will listen.

Good post.  My glass is always full (Especially if it's the Veuve).

Well spoken my friend, as is usually the case.

And as someone wise and intelligent beyond thier ways once said- "Those who live in glass houses must never throw stones".

It isn't worth it to haggel and play into the drama. You will only tarnish your own reputation by doing so.

We all need to stick together- we don't all have to like each other and we don't all have to agree on everything. Personal differences are one thing, but let's keep our priorities in order and remain civil to each other while trying to hobby our hearts out.

There are some truley genuine, intelligent, and down right kind hearted people in this community. I am proud to know a few and am quite sure there are more lurking in the shadows, waiting till the dust clears.

Justdonebyu:

Thoughtful, insightful and so very on point.

I was just wondering the other day how you've been and if you were still out there in the world.  

It's been too long-email me if you like and we can catch up.

Unless, of course, you aren't who your distinctive writing style indicates, in which case, well said nonetheless.

Good times,

JustJack

Thanks big guy good words.  But we may be getting too many nice guys here. What to do you think?  I'll hand over the white hat and change my handle to Boris...BaaaHaaaa

..and dropping the temperature down, the jacuzzi, the veuve and our old long gone friend (but NEVER forgotten) Krista. Makes me all misty eyed. No wait, that's my misting system..

My number is the same I believe. Perhaps catching up at that old haunt we used to frequent in Scottsdale - where more that a few eyebrows were raised, is in order.
