Posted this on the general board, but meant to post it on the local Portland board-- sorry.

I tried to book a time to see Sofie in Portland for a lunch date and she demanded my full identity.  Is this normal?  Seems like I read on the boards that requesting (or providing such info) is a no-no.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

It's your decision as to whether or not you're comfortable. If you'd rather not meet her screening, find someone else to see.

many many providers say they require something, but really don't. I know many who post adds and websites saying they require a board handle and provider reference(s). You can send them to her but they actually never check them!  Test it out.  Send them an email giving them some other guy's handle and a couple of references. Most will say you checked out!

I remember one gal I sent an email too like that, 2 minutes later she said I checked out.  hahahahahahah

Jackasses like yourself are the reason many ladies ask for what is considered "too much" information... we're trying to make sure you are not just disrespecting our need for safety, are who you say you are, and are not a threat.

YOU are a threat, and do a disservice to other hobbyists with your antics.
