The negatively weighted scores, render the number scores useless for anyone not seeking the "extra" services.

Disappointing to myself - and I'm sure other "non-GFE" providers.

That term irks me a little to begin with, but maybe that's just my original impression of the term "girlfriend experience", which before I got into this hobby I thought meant "warm, friendly, laid back, accommodating, like you're hanging out with the perfect girlfriend". Boy was I wrong LOL.

Bottom line, every experience is subjective, and I believe that either the scores need to be equal no matter the service, or we simply need separate boards. Otherwise it's essentially telling girls that if they want to be safe, they're going to have to sacrifice success.

Comparing a provider with 20 reviews to a provider with 200?

Of course its going to be skewed.

Not to mention girls whose websites explicitly state "Will not see low reviewers", girls who are reincarnated providers who had previous providers and started over etc etc.

The calculations just don't make a lot of sense so its hype over nothing really IMO.

You are clearly speaking for yourself Mr Dunce Cap. There are hundreds of non-GFE reviews posted every day, including massage reviews.
Not every hobbyist wants a BBBJ, and probably more then half don't want Greek either. Next time, do a little research. It won't make you look like a dunce.

How about the providers who are semi GFE? For instance, a provider who kisses, but won't BBBJ, or vice versa. Before a provider is determined to be GFE, there has to be set guidelines on exactly what GFE is, and I don't think that TER is in a position to a draw a line there.

I do agree that that massage providers who are not performing certain services should not be rated with providers with a full menu. In other words a provider giving hand jobs has no business being rated with high numbers equalling those who perform several other services.

A hobbyist can still give a GFE provider a 7 in performance. I think the problem with the ratings these days is score inflation. I do believe that a limited menu warrants a limited score. A 9 for a hand job is unfair to the providers who truly earn a 9 with a good menu and worthy performance.

The GFE thing will never be uniformed xyz. I have had some great sessions with non GFE providers whos attitudes far exceeded those with a more expansive menu because at times their attitudes and personalities were off the charts. So who was the real GFE?

WHY would guys want  a chick that gives a CBJ, doesn't kiss, and no pussy eating, or Greek, or 2 pops. This is a DUMB idea if I ever heard one.  Who would EVER look at a top 100 NON GFE?????

Let me help to educate you a little. Read slowly.....

Just because a provider does not want to do BBBJ, or kiss does mean that she is one pop and kick you out he door.
Of course no one wants to kicked out. You are now attempting to justify yourself by adding negative crap to get others to agree with you.

Now, go read some reviews and you will find plenty of hobbyists having great sessions with non GFE and semiGFE providers and feel free to badger them to death and call them liars for enjoying themselves. Read them. They are there! Proof!

true for you, but if you do much reading here on the boards you'll see that it's not true for everyone. While it's not for me there are many that have posted that it's what they are looking for. It is presumptuous in the extreme to speak for virtually everyone.

providers should be rated on what they offer not how well they do it. I thought performance was about How you do something not What you do. (This is my discontent with TER's rating guidelines.)

You're right about no consensus on what GFE actually is. Yes, there are those that will tell you it is this, this and this. But immediately you will get others that disagree.
Seems the more we think we have it figured out, the more we need to figure out.

That wants a CBJ, or one pop only, or a rushed session, or no kissing. Some I'll admit do not want DATY or Greek. Buy having a top 100 for lame sessions is a joke.  I've been on this site for years and never saw a post where a guy said "let me go find an uninspired covered blow job, and a chick that won't kiss, and kicks me out the door after one stinking pop".  That's non GFE.

It is what is. Most serious hobbyists really don't pay attention to the top 100 list.

but I enjoy falling in love, and the girls I fall for I consider GFEs.  They are hard to find, and the menu doesn't affect their ability to be my girl friend for that period of time.  And in my limited experience it is hard as hell for a review or a web site to tell you "this girl will make you feel like she is your girl friend".  I've literally just stumbled upon them.

I disagree with calling a girl GFE based on her menu, I disagree with mandating services for scores, and I've never looked at the top 100 as a way of finding girls.  I read their posts, and try to find personalities that way.

Yeah, I don't pay much attention to the Top 100 list for the very reason that it's too general.  I prefer to have a few different saved search types and sort by ratings.  That way I can find the type of girl that I'm looking for, not just a blanket list that you can't search within.

Pardon me. I think he was talking about hobbyists paying attention to the "top 100 list", not reviews in general.

Most providers with sites advertise GFE/PSE service. Not all, but most. Now that doesn't mean that the ones who advertise GFE always do it. If their reviews consistently mention a lack of specific GFE/PSE services that the providers offer, it might be due to something the provider noticed, or actually how they feel. Providing ain't easy for these ladies. And still, there aren't any male providers.

We never know the real story cos we ain't there. A lot of the reviews are not totally true anyway. If she advertises PSE/GFE service,and has consistently high, remarkable scores and reviews, chances are, you can't go wrong.

Take care and have fun, fellas.
