Rates are always a topic of discussion but what about the increasingly prevalent 2 or 3 hour "minimum" date due to COVID concerns or honestly, due to whatever?  It seems that many of the 20-something twitter hotties, in particular, now have a 2 or 3 hour date minimum.  At 600 or 700 per hour which is not an uncommon ask for these ladies, that's 1,000 + for the date.  (No need to compliment me on my math skills.)  For someone like me who is most often an one-n-done guy, a multi-hour requirement causes me to avoid a lady I would otherwise race to meet.  In fact, a couple of these same ladies and I have previously planned getting together but now it makes no sense.  Do others see this the same way?  Funniest thing, most if not all of these same ladies welcome the museum date or river cruise to get acquainted.  Sure.  Why don't we walk to the museum and burn off a couple more hours while we're at it?  Be safe.

Then just skip them. I don’t look at it as a scam. It’s similar to the ones who price almost double for couples. We don’t even bother. Plenty of others who want the business.

It's the very same as the guys who come on here to whine about the price of pussy being too high, or that all the "hot" hookers have priced themselves out of their price range.

 
My suggestion is to simply offer to schedule a one hour date with any of the women you desire, if they say no, move on, and while you are at it ask yourself one question. Has WHINING about rates, minimums et al EVER done any good where it comes to pussy? Only the market will determine if she will relent on her "minimum dates" if her dance card stays full and guys are willing to pay her price and jump through her hoops she is VERY unlikely to change her rules, OTOH, if business is slow and guys are NOT willing to bow to her demands, she may be very willing to get a few one hour dates.

 
For the record I agree with you, I NEVER make two hour dates, an hour is plenty long enough to get off once and two hours is rarely long enough to finish a second time. I either make one hour dates, or all night long, but that's just me

and many of the gals I see have 2 hour minimums.    

 
I like the personal interaction as much as the sex (This becomes more that case as I age, not unsurprisingly.)

 
I think the gals who do insist on 2 hour minimums believe that the clientele they attract will be a better fit for them.

 
The hobby is a big tent, and within in it are the right providers/clients for everyone.

You could customize your time preferences to better suit your needs.

A Lamborghini costs more than a Corvette. Just because one model is out of your price range, it doesn’t mean the pricing is a scam.  Bottom line, there are plenty of nice rides available, it’s just a matter of finding the one that works best for you.

I agree with you with one exception.  If one, (like myself) is limited to a small market, the options are not as plentiful.  Even before COVID.

Well, at those prices I would think one might consider visiting other markets. While not possible now, a trip to Toronto will open up the door for some ~ US$200 options and if you prefer Montreal you can get a bit lower. The difference will certainly cover the air and hotel costs. And you can play tourist as well. Hell, both are likely close enough that you could simply skip the hotel and just fly home that night.

 
A bit farther afield but still technically the USA, Puerto Rica seems to be abut $250. Again, suspect a flight package might for an over night would probably be under $1200.

Of course, that is limited to having the flexibility to pop off somewhere without having to explain to someone else.

It's simple dude - ladies want to see less people due to Covid. Longer date minimums equal less people, and jerks like you.

Move on.  Some reasoning I've seen for 2 hour minimum girls have been "get to know each other" time.  I look at it nothing more than more bucks for your bang (pun intended).  My mental reflex says 1) we're not there to make longtime friends or 2) if you want to get to know each other we can sporadically email or text prior to me forking over 4 to 5 bills.   Even in my younger days the max I'm getting off in 2 hours is 3 times...on a good day.  Of course if the price is reasonable for 2 hours....say 5 bills then thats good value in my opinion.  But perhaps I am just jaded after falling for the 2 hr minimum advertisement a couple of times.  

You're just the kind of guy they're trying to avoid😳 can't imagine why lol  

Pump-n-dump'er

when I'm seeing a girl for the first time.  2 hours can seem like an eternity  when you draw a mismatch, and you're not going to know she's not your cup of tea until you are there.  With indies, if you book an hour and everything is going swimmingly, you are often able to add an hour because she doesn't have anyone after you.  This is virtually impossible with Kgirls.   When I'm repeating, its almost always two hours or longer.

Find someone you like for the price you like.

Leave the others for someone else.

Simple lessons learned in p4p.

"Whining" is therapy, I don't begrudge folks to vent. I don't think they necessarily want a resolution in most cases, but just the acknowledgement that they aren't the only ones feeling the same way. Its like watching comedy, it is always cathartic in some sense to hear that others think or do the same thing you do, and funny.

 
I believe prices will fall after having talking with folks in the business, or at least have hit a ceiling.
