I know for the most part men would like to bypass the whole screening issue. Others apprecaite it because, it makes them feel their is a mutal concern for safety.
Now, it may be me. Or it could be because summer is often a slower time.
But does it seems like girls are doing less screening and more winging it?
Maybe this is more in the reg. hobbyist area where people feel they are more aquainted with each other.
Either way it does concern me on either side. Ultimately it is a numbers came.
At some point your number is bound to come up, regardless of the sort of bad experience.
I think personal safety and health issues should never be dismissed. I know I give referrals when asked.
Like I said, I may be only see one part of the picture.

Just some observations...
Hope everyone plays safe!

I prefer to see someone who screens carefully. To me, if a provider is careless about the screening process and who she sees, then it leads me to believe she is careless when it comes to other matters such as health and hygiene.
Just my $.02

I would prefer to see someone who does a reasonable amount of screening. I appreciate the need to screen (and, let's face it, TER is how us guys do our screening), and have always been willing to supply whatever information a provider requests; although if someone is asking for my home address, I'd draw the line at that.

Here’s my home address and # OH let’s wait till you get here. Just kidding but if we’re going to play in this game we better play it safe for every ones protection.

I can't give a work number.  That just seems insane to me.  Maybe it is just me but that seems like possible trouble.  That has kept me from seeing a couple girls.  I have not asked if they would see me without giving my work number but they have gone through the trouble of stating it on there websites.  So I don't ask.

I know I try to make people as comfortable as I can with their info. I let them know it's just a given mutual trust.
Because after all, I'm trusitng you with my personal safety.
I can't image why someone would need your home address, other then after comformation of an outcall appt.
For just screening that is a little creepy.

That was my feeling as well. I've never had an issue with name, age, physical description, work name and phone number, and cell phone number, but my home number and address is a little excessive. By the way, Jai, I never had an issue with your screening. The info you ask for is very reasonable under the circumstances.

Just my 2 cents: one size does not fit all. Some of us run small businesses with the significant other handling sensitive things like phone calls. And, like it or not, there is no way--no way--any "verification" source from out of nowhere goes unnoticed without being scruntinized in return for potential havoc.

Yes, there are gorgeous women like Jai with their screening policy who, sadly, a guy like me can never even consider as a result. Moreover, trust is a two way street which is sometimes detoured with disasterous consequences.

Anyone care to be reminded of the Pamela Martin Escort agency bust in Washington DC? It was BIG news. She too, had strict screening rules with her clients "for everyone's protection." And then (surprise!) she outed everyone to save her skin. Thanks, but I'll just have to go with girls who trust me in a call & with references.

Never say never... You're assumtion is false in regards to screening.
That is what referrals are for.
As I said... there are ways around things to gain that 2 way comfort zone.

Many ladies have the option of asking for one or the other:

Work Info OR References

That should help some folks.

BTW: If you'd ask me if I'd accept seeing you without your work info, the answer would be yes if I'm able to verify you in other ways. Hope this helps.

Have a great night, everybody.
