So Caitlyn's thread below got me to thinking about other posts that come up from time to time, and comments I've heard in person from provider and hobbyist alike...

It all depends on our own perceptions. I know hookers who won't see guys who have reviewed TS girls.. That leads to lot of guys who go to TS girls not reviewing TS girls because of a) shame, b) not getting future appointments w/ regular girls.  

"Sharing is caring."

Some of us think "Ick" if too many of either.  

A provider with 20 pages of reviews who has been in business for over 10 years, may have only seen 3-4 a month that entire time... here, you can't tell exact dates of when the guy saw her like with other boards. Fact is, a woman can flat out tell guys not to review her making it appear that she is low volume, when she is fkin 5-10 guys a week, every week. That's not low volume in my book, but to others it might be.  

Clear and understandable, as always!

But that's never stopped me before.

but I do think that sometimes deciding to "not judge" is the same as "judging". lol

in the United States. Confirmed by CDC. But given so much cross pollination in our hooking world, I say its a moot point.

Peabody award aside, which is more a review issue - OT...

I know both Ladies and Guy's who choose not to see people that have a history of seeing TS girls.
They believe that there lifestyle puts them at a much higher risk by not practicing safe sex. Whether true or not they just do not want to take the chance of putting themselves at a greater risk.
 
Anyone that thinks people are always going to be truthful about there sexual history would be very naive to just take someones word on it. In this hobby you can never be to safe and after all no one is going to look out for your safety like you would for your self.

And if you think he is a gentleman, he will keep his promise.. I will if someone I like asks me not to, but very rarely will I make such a promise....I will may be make it for 3 people on this board..

A known guy in the midst of bashing aliases without reviews just bragged that he's here on ter to "achieve",

and often the best providers are those who have had plenty of practice.

Lord knows I have and I like to think it's made me a better client as a result.

"I typically try to avoid seeing guys who write reviews because I don't like being commoditized or having the size/shape/color/elasticity of my vagina discussed"

Otherwise it would defeat the purpose of ter.

not all money is good or fun money to make.  

Real men make up their own damn mind..

In order of importance:

As I got out of the shower, noticed the pile of about 20 dirty towels under the sink.  And it was only 2pm!

I have never posted a single review in my life. I have however, most likely fucked somewhere over three thousand different women. How does a manwhore like me fit into your "cup of tea"

Please overlook the fact that I am an asshole here on the board when answering, if possible. lol

of an activist/social worker. But its hard to change the perception of people.  And yes, its sometimes unfair.. But people lot of times respond/ react in life based on perceptions.. And perceptions are not reality.  

Guys usually ask me, because I'm pretty open about my dislike for the explicit stuff, but in general I don't think it's common practice to ask first.

THey had yet to make the official announcement. Oops, there goes the surprise. Lol.
 

... What criteria do you use to counter the number of reviews?

is just starting out in P4P might have 15 reviews in less than a year while a guy who has been at this hobby for over 10 years might have 80 reviews.

Eh, I've seen a couple of heavy reviewers based on two criteria: in one case, the guy got a STERLING recommendation from my beloved LR. In another case, the guy was very kind, respectful and just generally cool in my previous communications with him. It's not a hard and fast rule of mine to turn down anyone who writes a bunch if reviews, I just scrutinize them a little harder, I suppose.

this thread prompted me to go back and read some of my old reviews.  Interestingly I found they read way more dickish than my more recent ones...to the point where I'm a bit embarassed by them.  I don't excuse them by any means, but I think the reality is that I came into this with a much different attitude than I have now.

that 100 percent of the men that walk in the dark are being honest anyway.
plenty of times I've had guys come in and tell me they've never done this before or they don't do it often and then they ask for a white list and I see a hundred fifty reviews.
after they just told me they've never done it before or the only do it once in awhile.
I am in a situation where I'm not able to do back to back appointments
and everyone that has seen me or spoken to me about seeing me will know what I am talking about.
I have had a tiny tiny handful say that they think that is especially appealing to them.
and that on the other hand when they go to see a woman in a hotel who is on her game and getting her hustle on that they feel it is of putting because they are treated the way that it is like a client and its in and out.
that's only honestly a tiny tiny handful that is ever even mentioned that they care about having a low-volume experience.
and it has never been the big spenders or the guys that tend to come a lot that claim they love that one on one load volume experience it has been such a small small handful I can count on one hand but never mentions that.
there are actually some guys that love to hear about s***** stories I had an ex boyfriend wants that would love to hear about the s******** story I've ever done.
but you have to tread lightly because then again there are some people that will not want to hear the s******** story of all and it will actually freaked them out,
whatever is going on with me if I am planning on doing two appointments that day I do not care and if they have a problem with it then too bad for them.
and on the other hand if I have nothing else going that day and I'm going to put on my gardeners and thigh highs and just hang out in a roll with my makeup on and wait till they show up whatever time that may be early or late.
then heh that's what I'm doing that day and they can take it or leave it to!
from my experience the guys could care less whether you're high or low volume they want to get in and get out they want to get what they get done done'
I have not had any more or less business because I am low volume'
low volume on a daily basis'
as in I cannot have traffic at my incall
I do try to do the hotel thing from time and time again and it just never works out I never get out of the house on time I end up checking in late and by the time I actually unpack all my neurotic things with me it's usually seven and the next thing you know my fibromyalgia and my back is killing me and I'm fatigued
and then it turns out to be a waste of money and I fall behind
for me getting hotels is just not an option and that's me and me alone and I'm my own person and I do not have to listen to anybody suggestions there is no difference to me between sitting in your house all day or sitting in some empty vacant weird hotel room in the middle of nowhere all day or sitting in an office all day
there is a saying everywhere you go there you are
so'
for me my ex factor would be a regular of mine telling me that last week when he could not see me he went to go see two girls doing doubles for some rates lower than me
I had this one regular since I was 26 asian guy
he was cheap and he would always argue with me'
never the less he came through a couple times for me when my animal is sick and I need to go to the Animal Hospital it was when I had a rabbit
and I had a guinea pig
anyways he was helpful in some ways but in other ways a pain in the neck
so I have known the guy for 6 years now and he came over here and tells me all when you didn't want to meet up with me last week I found these two girls doing a double for 250
or he said something to that effect
I immediately got mad at him and said well you know what that makes me not want to see you because that's gross'
because the guys that are looking for a deal that means they're going around and trying to see as many women as they can
sometimes the guys that are looking for the deal or the cheapest rates to me can be a red flag and make me not want to see them
I also recently noticed that someone got a review and the guy that reviewed um had seen one girl the charges 175 and then he went and seen a girl the charges 700
I thought that was very Rd because I always thought people research to the review our was and if he was seeing women for 175 and they charge 700mb actually didn't want to see him?
I have researched reviewers that have visited women the charge extremely low or look very very sketchy and then I will not see that client
so I suppose that would be my ex factor if I saw a reviewer that was seeing someone a lot lot lower on the totem pole than me that's low low quality yes I would definitely put him in the X Factor and put them on the DN S lis

Like someone said above, I think it's more of a risk factors than an 'ick' factor that's rooted psychologically.  But a provider should treat all clients with the same precaution regardless if they've seen many girls or not.

Well if it's any consolation, I was referring to you in my second example.
