When I look to book a session I consider both performance and appearance to be important and influence my decision on whether to book a provider at all or pick one out of several potential providers.  I think a decade or more ago if I had to favor one over the other I would have picked appearance.  Now, I definitely would give the edge to performance.  I think it’s because a more skilled practitioner can bring me to climax better than a hot looking woman whose skills are less advanced.  What do you all think about performance vs appearance?  And believe me, if I can get both I will do so preferentially.

It's due to a change in your perspective and priorities that comes with age and experience.  Most younger guys select providers more by appearance, but for most guys over 50, service is king.  As i get older I find my being okay with well-reviewed providers that I would not have chosen when I was 35 because at that age, I wanted the young hot ones, too.   Lol

I suppose in some parts of the country your choice might be true but I've never been forced to choose performance over appearance or vice versa.

I had to hit the like button. I believe long ago when I started as a provider I was young & hot! I thought I could get by on looks. Performance points were low on my TER profile in the beginning due to my lack of knowledge & experience. Now that I am older I realize looks are not everything. There is no substitute for experience. My performance has evolved over the years. It only gets better.

Attitude over everything else for me. Appearance got to be acceptable. Performance is nice too, albeit I find most performances a bit too formulaic. Good kissers are hard to come by but I did come across a few.

But I can't work with appearance.I'm an eye candy kinda guy and sometimes I need a "looker" to get me going.
Once you get a good looking girl going , the performance will follow.

If looks are not what I find attractive, at least to some level, doesn't have to be DDG or anything, they simply cannot deliver performance for me. Without a certain level of visual no matter the skill it just won't turn me on.

Come on - you're still hot looking.

I'm fortunate to be in an area where there is a broad selection.  So, I don't really have to choose.

Give me a girl who fucks like a rockstar over a looker who has weak performance , any day of the week. And twice on Sunday!

At one of my earliest TER-era (Reviews, etc., not just a tabloid ad) experiences, my hostess disrobed and she had a cellulite thighs, totally unexpected from the reviews. Aaah! What am I going to do!!! But she was GREAT and I realized that some things were more important than a misperceived imperfection.

My ATF was a KMP girl who I saw many, many times. She had bad, crooked teeth (that she eventually got fixed) but being with her was heavenly, crooked teeth and all.

on your dick to remember her by?   Lol

"I'm guilty of boosting appearance scores a little because she touched my penis."  I think you got it right, too.  If the service is great, the girl starts looking better as the session moves on.  

In those cases where looks aren't stellar, I've occasionally found outstanding performance that more than makes up for it. One of the only times I've gone 2x in a session was with a provider who had a passable face but rocking performance.  

On my heart and soul.

Right. Nothing extreme. Less than 5 would be tough for me too no matter how nice she is and what she does.  

Several times I have been amazed at by the performance/ attitude versus looks ratio.    

is if you would repeat:
A) she was even hotter than her ad pics but performance was lacking.
vs.
B) her looks were a disappointment, but she ended up having mad skills.

But doesn’t she get better looking with sensational performance? -e-

B for me here.

I vote for B as well.

The beautiful porn star I mentioned in my post immediately went on my Do Not Fly list after the session. The lady whose face I described as passable was a definite repeat.

Performance, great attitude, friendliness win every time.  One of the great values of reviews is discovering this kind of information and reaching out to the reviewers, via private message, to get additional feedback on their professionalism and anything else that I may be interested in.

I love this response. Spot on…his brain, his desire for me, ooo la la girl!

Some of the best times I've had have been with ladies that upon first glance most would rate them as a 7 or 8 for their appearance.  Nothing worst that being with a really hot provider that is a 9 or 10 who delivers blandly in the sack...almost make things worst because of their attractiveness. Come to think of it, every 'no-repeat' encounter I've had, the provider has been a 9 or 10 in the looks department. A great performance can also make a 7- 8 looking provider become a 9 in appearance by sessions end. Performance over appearance for me because no matter how hot she is if her performance/attitude is not there I'm not going to have a good time nor repeat.

it's always a "broad selection."

Groan.

I prefer a woman who fucks better than she looks over a woman who looks better than she fucks. LoL. 😆
