Idk it’s very odd.

I charge for virtual dates. I am actually doing my taxes right now & I have made thousands this year on virtual dates. I am happy to work remotely. I do not understand the younger generation of SW who do video verification. I would not.  

OF is a great way to verify I am who I say I am & I need 1099 for money I make on my platform it’s the only place to see my full face and unedited content without booking a date. I would not offer verification calls.

I've only had that happen a couple of times, but when I asked, they said it was to vibe check the other person to make sure they could conduct themselves with respect before agreeing to actually meet.  

texts and emails can only tell so much .  so while its nice to know photos are updated  ( i recently got slightly burned on that)    it's also nice to know temperament and vibes are a match ...   now certainly some ladies are just offering up their body parts and staring at the ceiling and if that's all that's required maybe not needed  but always nice to break the ice .. not a big long drawn out call, the type that requires compensation  ...just enough to gauge vibe.

Some want you to show your face and move your smartphone down to your dick area. They use that as a form of screening to prevent LE from making appointments.

Be careful with that if your in your car lol.

Or other racial or ethnic screening.  

Had a provider wanting a  phone conversation after I  enquired by email. We didn't connect right away and I left a voicemail. She approved me shortly thereafter.  I didn't ask why, but I'm sure she was screenings for obvious racial tones or ESL.

I've been told that the police don't like to show their face , so they'll decline the face verification.

How do people still not understand that the police will do ANYTHING within the law to catch you including lie, decoys, money, etc...some will even break the law to catch you.

The sheer stupidity of it all is amazing!

A cop can show dick and fuck and still bust.  

The more you know....

The video call is the first instance of therapeutic contact. It transforms "presence" from an abstract promise into a tangible reality.

Before TER, my greatest liability was appearing "too good to be true"—a digital phantom that invited as much skepticism as it did interest. While reviews provide a map of an experience, a real-time call provides the terrain. It inoculates the client against buyer’s remorse by replacing the anxiety of the unknown with the certainty of the seen.

The value is reciprocal. It allows us to evaluate the alchemy of a potential match before the a door is unlatched or a hotel is booked. It confirms I am the "real deal," yes—but more importantly, it ensures that when we finally meet, the work of connection has already begun.

I often say the body is the bridge, but the architecture of that bridge begins with the first exchange: the flights of attention that precede the gravity of touch.
