dont want to give out info...dont see what the point is...

tomorrow April 14th marks the 4th year since the senseless death of Julissa Brisman
Murdered by the Craigslist Killer at the Boston Marriot in Copley Square.
She died in a pool of her own blood, alone.
Next week she would have been turning 29.

This is why we screen. She didn't.

Rest in Peace Sweetheart.

You either got to be kidding or you've simply chosen to ignore all the BSC providers who appear normal until crossed. There are thousands of stories of providers who have misused personal information for the smallest perceived slights, everything from bad, but truthful reviews to NCNS, to the least little thing that might set a woman off, and this from "well reviewed" providers on this very site.

Any guy who is sending out his wikipedia file as a form of screening either feels he has nothing to lose, or is playing fast and loose with his life and needs a swift kick in the head from his mongering brothers.

There is a third choice that you so conveniently overlook, simply move to the next lady of your choice who's screening is not so invasive.

Disclaimer here, Personally I don't mind sharing my personal info, but I am "black mail proof" I am happily divorced, own my own company and don't give a fuck who knows that I frequent prostitutes. If getting "outed" made the least bit of impact on my "real" life, there would be no way in hell that I would jump through the hoops that some of you hookers make guys jump through. Actually I still don't jump through hoops, but not because I am afraid of what some vengeful hooker is going to do with my personal info.

her safety.  All hobbyists were new at one time or another.  When new, the screening requirements might seem demanding.  If a guy doesn't want to give "x" to a lady for verification, then he can either move on to another lady who wants less info or he can take is ball and go home.  

Some ladies do want more information than may appear necessary to the average guy.  Some guys have a much more visible job and can not offer as much info.  There is a place for all to play; just find the right partner.

and see your  heart is pure???

As I said, I don't have a problem with it, as I am "black mail proof" but a married guy? or a guy that being exposed would impact a public or sensitive job? Not on your life. I would never put my entire life in the hands of a woman I had never met, just to get a little strange.

I know you don't believe in the "search message" feature here, but there are countless stories on this very board about "well reviewed" providers who have acted vengefully at the smallest perceived slight, and have made their former client's lives a living hell. Rare or not, it happens. So just how is a man supposed to know that you won't turn BSC someday?

this is why i try to get white listed.  i have found that white listing lets ladies know i am safe and trustworthy, and i don't have to give out my personal info so often.

Hence your BSC track record hasn't been established...and hopefully never will be.  But as Gambler commented above there are many many public stories of seemingly great gals going BSC for a myriad of reasons without warning.  The behind the scenes stories are significantly higher than any of the public comments, hence this is more common than you might want to believe.

I'm also in a similar camp as GaG on being "blackmail proof".  If some insane hooker thought she was going to use that ploy...I simply give her my attorney's name and let her have at it.  Many would recognize my attorney as well  LOL  Oh...and she better have some serious dough to play with...I love a good fight  :D

If a gal doesn't want to accept the info I am willing to provide...no problem.  On to the next gal.  There's no GPS that is that important to me to waste my time jumping through any fucking hoops...I simply have no patience for that childish game.  Other johns will...good for them.

So unfortunately you won't know if some day you decide to wake up and be a nutcase and try and extort from some poor sap.  Yep...it happens.  So when guys are willing to give out all their personal and easily verifiable info to some stranger, they may as well put all of their info on the web for anyone to use.  

In this world of vipers and whores...it should remain anonymous.  Protects both parties.

If you are that paranoid that some guy is a stalker or rapist or murderer, this may not be the gig for you.  And it works both ways.

listening to your intuition...you can learn a shitload from emails, demeanor, how he writes, his tone, you'd be amazed. One red flag with me and the date doesn't happen. Period. Besides screening that is all we can go by, our sixth sense really. And yes, safety is our first most important thing...I had one gentlemen say to me this week after I wasn't satisifed with his info. I could just feel something in my gut about him was off...his attitude, questioning about 'services' LOL, refusing to give work info and a comment like, "well I'm not the cops or a rapist" and thought in his brilliant mind that would be good to pass go...NOT...I'm like are you serious or that stupid. DONE.  
   
 Like I'm going to believe just because you told me you're neither? Seriously? Come on guys. That kind of gentleman doesn't get past hello with me.

There are providers who can't be trusted and clients who can't.

Find the middle ground you can both live with.  For an escort to not screen is flat STUPID, and because a guy has 10,000 posts on TER isn't the same as screening.  Nor is "trust me, I'm safe".  Screening doesn't have to be name, address, and SSN.

More men have gone wacko that the established women have.  And you've never known a BSC man?

There has to be a balance, but women with invasive screening tend to claim it's the "only way" and there are plenty of spineless men who agree with them without regard to their own safety.

I will grant you that there is a happy middle ground somewhere, but it's a moving goalpost, what's good for one person is not necessarily good for someone else.

I will disagree with your typical "more men have gone wacko that the established women have" your very syntax reveals your bias. How about the statement "more women have gone wacko then the ESTABLISHED men"??? Same basic question, but different bias. Don't claim to be even handed when your very words bely your objectivity.

Lets just agree that there are wackos on both sides. Men should expect to be screened, but should draw their own line where they consider the screening to be invasive or contrary to their own interests. How's that for a fair assessment?

Plenty of ways for a gal to "verify" if some john is safe and sane.  She NEVER needs his personal info to get that either.

What you have are some seriously paranoid women who only think that this way or that way is the ONLY way.  And as many here have commented WE have options.  Most of the fellas who play here won't waste their time with a hooker that is a time waster...one who claims that this is her "screening" method and if you don't want to do it this way...move along.  I know I certainly move along, and pass that insane drivel on to as many of my pals as I can.

Keep in mind that this is a VERY small world that we all play in.  It's a piece of cake in most cases to verify either side of this transaction.  If you haven't learned yet...you will.

and that maybe your short (four months) worth of history here might not be that confidence inspiring for a guy with a thirty year old marriage or a seven digit career to worry about?

You've been here a short four months, some of us have been doing this for decades. I've personally been around pay for pay for years before there was even an internet, and some have been around even longer than me.

Being cautious is one thing, but making statements that a guy sent you his wikipedia link to you after you convinced him he had nothing to fear only shows his naivety, not your credentials. No one  has a track record worth a dime after four short months. I've been on this board for ten years, come back to me in about five and then you can tell me how much you know. In the meantime there have been thousands before you who were just like you when they first got here, anxious to tell everyone how smart and different they were. Lets face it, there just isn't that much original thought left out there. So far you haven't added anything new.

Especially the ones that already know everything about this business after being in it for all of an hour and a half.

I don't think she realizes that this is us being nice, some of the BSC know it all hookders that have come on this board in the past have gotten a lot harsher reception to their know it all attitudes than she has gotten here from us.

I am trying to be a LITTLE BIT nicer on purpose, I don't know what's your excuse, why are you being so fucking polite today??? lol

Finished up what I needed to finish...filed extensions so that's out of the way.

Now I get to catch up on the other shit I do for a living  :D

And I still like "smart" women...as do you.  Taylor keeps on posting and honestly that is a good thing.  But she will learn...I know that.  If not, then she will find the boards a not so fun place to bloviate.

I've missed this a lot...glad to have you in seat 1A.

I've been a couch potato today. I've been watching baseball and golf.

Today is the first day of Thai new years though, I am out of here in an hour or so to take a Thai friend out for dinner and sex.  Well out for dinner, and in for sex. lol

I like celebrating every culture's holiday's I get one day of partying for American New Years, three days for Chinese New Years, and three more days starting today for Thai New Years. Add in all the other American holidays, a few Jewish ones and fuck I don't have to work for the rest of the year.

Taylor MIGHT learn, she is a bit full of herself still, and she is an old dog trying to learn new tricks, so the odds are stacked a bit against her, but I will give her credit for trying.

A lot of women have hurt clients over the years, destroyed their livelihoods, etc. I don't blame anyone for being leery about their information floating around this industry. Its a two way street. If a gentleman has a problem with my screening process, he has the option to seek out someone else.  

As providers, isn't this why we use an alias? We want to be safe too. Men have just as much right to cover their asses. What if a guy asked for your first name? Would you tell him? Most likely not. But you know his first and last name, place of work, etc.

How come women use their homes for incall? Aren't you placing yourself at a higher risk for potential problems? I'll never understand that one.  

I'm sorry for any provider that has been harmed (or much worse) in this industry, but men have been hurt too.

RIP Julissa Brisman. At least they caught her attacker. Do you have any idea how many crimes go unreported or end up in a cold case file cabinet? At least her family has closure.

Rest in Peace Sweetheart.
Lets just face the facts:  Even if he gave her all that info, he was a medical student, Im pretty sure women and hookers won't be as suspicious, the say a guy who say he was rich and had money

She died cause she didn't want to hand over her loot,  really how much money is worth fighting over, she could of handed him $200 buck and said that all she had and he would of left.

Apparently she decided to work it all alone, no friends no agency etc etc.  Too bad, how many girls working for agencies has even been killed NONE!! and agencies don't even screen shit, you got money, they hook you up.

There is screening and then there is batshit crazy hoops screening where you might as well give her a DNA sample..  Some guys tend to be desperate and let people walk all over them, and some say screw this, your hot and all but not hot enough I want to waste my time on.    If enough men stop jumping over hoops, and the said provider have no one calling, I bet she will be desperate to take any calls that come in without screening.    

And no one is safe, shit married men kill their wives all the time, cops shoots their wives, I bet she should of screen him before marrying him...LOL

I have my own way to screen my visitors...  But yes I do require first name last initial and phone number and a reference.  
I have a hard time if they do not have a reference and do not understand the importance of this.
From my experience from the begining to now things have so changed.
Back in the day, if you asked this information hobbyists wouldnt hesitate to offer the information needed if  they wanted to schedule a meeting..  Since I have come out of retirement things are way different and I am adjusting....as quick as I can.. Although I am a creature of habit.. I like the old days...

XOXO

Like GG said, I simply move on to the next lady who will see me without the equivalent of an FBI background check. There are simply too many of you for me to give a shit about a couple ladies who won't see me because I won't tell them everything about my life.

I and only I decide how much info I am willing to give someone. No provider is going to force me to give any more personal info than I am willing to give at the point of a bayonet!

try watching the news. this is not about screening. it is about a girl who died servicing a fucking john, so try having some respect. you are also out of your mind to thnk that a guy who just handed over his full name, place of employment, etc. is just as likely to pull this shit, as someone who hands over a fucking TER handle. that's why so many women require info regardless of how many refs you have. those girls rarely get into trouble.  

meeting clients is not the same as dating someone either. you are reaching with that one. these women get paid to fuck STRANGERS with nothing other than a few conversations over the phone, adn the first meeting is usually somewhere they can't call for help or cause a scene. to say a provider will be so desperate for you money because the phone stopped ringing that she must now put her life at risk even more, just proves what a jackass you are.

But, given the line of reasoning you’ve offered here, and your inability to manage a full sentence, grammar or spelling, you seem well qualified.  

This is one of those posts where it’s kind of hard to find a starting place. Umm....

Yes. Lets’ just face facts. To start: because the guy was a med student does not mean that ‘women and hookers’ would not be suspicious because all ‘women and hookers’  would, by default, assume a med student was rich and had money.  

Secondly: She did not die because she did not want to ‘hand over her loot’. She died because he killed her.  

Thirdly: How is it that you know that NO woman working for an agency has ever been killed in this biz? Or, that NO agencies ever screen anyone; that an agencies' only priority is: “you got money they hook you up” ?...really?

Fourthly (is that even a word...lol): a man complying with a request for screening information does not mean he is desperate and letting anyone ‘walk all over him’.

Nor is there any reason to assume that if men (real men?) refuse to provide requested screening info that all 'women and hookers' will become so desperate for business that they will fold like a house of cards, and  stop asking for screening info. How many times has this been said. Don’t like the screening info asked for? move on. Simple.  

And....”married men kill their wives all the time”...and “cops shoot their wives”?

You really should have your executive assistant screen your communications before public distribution.  

Rest in peace Julissa Brisma

Guess for some people who complain about others being too secretive, they themselves seems to be perfectly fine hiding under alias and throwing insults..  Oh wait I guess its cool to be secretive when it suits your needs.. go figure

Lets get back to the facts:
1.  if he provided the information that he was a med student and had whatever info to back it up, I will bet you that most ladies/escort/hookers would give him the benefit of the doubt then a joe shmo who said he was a cashier at McDonald's  

2.  This guy was a SERIAL ROBBER, who robbed hookers/escorts/working ladies, and he KILLED her because it was a robbery gone bad.  He only killed ONE victim, why was that, well it was because it was a ROBBERY gone bad.  She tried to fight to keep her cash and well he killed her.  Anyone who is trying to make something more out of that, need to stop using this case as some shining example of screening.

3.  Fine, stop seeing providers who screen then. BP is litter with providers who do none to light screening.  Let see how long some of those stringent providers who wants close to a blood sample will loosen their restriction.  If not, maybe its time for another line of "safer" work.   Of course most men are pussies and some will give anything up just for it.  

4.  You think when a guy snaps he gives a shit, about the info he may have provided or not.  To say someone is less likely to do bad things just cause he/she has their name out there is ABSOLUTE PURE stupidity on your part.

5.  Go ahead and find me ONE case of a agency girl getting MURDERED by their clients in the USA.  Every agencies I seen requires far less to barely little screening.  You can get the same if not far better service/girl from a agency then if you had to deal with some of the independents.

Oh and men are known to beat their wives, some even kill their lovers/mates... I guess after 1+ to 22yrs of screening them,  didn't protect them from that/those faithful day when the guy turned on them huh?  Cop kills wife? No never he passed that damn BACKGROUND check.....LOL
Shit, just yesterday a MAJOR in the army shot and kill some girl he help recruit, guess the army didn't properly do their BACKGROUND CHECK either.

I have little to hide, maybe before throwing stones you should take your own advice and not hide behind  a alias...

If you want to make men jump over hoops and come close to providing a blood sample, you have every right, and men have every right to do it, but don't think for one second that it may stop a inevitable.

Just like watching the news:  when they interview the neighbor after a guy goes nuts... Oh he was such a nice guy, never hurt a fly, I would never believe in a million years he would be capable of it...

Screening only goes so far..
