If you want a better picture show your face.  If you don't show your face - your pictures will not look as good.  It's a trade off.  

To answer the question - I feel like the women who have made the decision to show their faces have decided that a good picture is worth more than their anonymity.  It does indicate some confidence and dedication to their profession as well as some fearlessness.  It is more attractive.

BUT - I really do understand the desire for anonymity especially for those women raising children.  So it does not prevent me from seeing them - but it does make it slightly less likely that I will

She'll set his naïve ass straight.

I don't think it's possible to overemphasize the fact that the internet if forever. I don't care how well you "scrub" there are archived copies that you just can't scrub. I've been outed myself and my info was plastered all over the internet, despite a scrubbing of my own, there are still remnants out there for any one who wants to put the effort into finding them.

Fortunately in my case, I don't really give a fuck, but if I ever wanted to run a public company, you're damn right this shit could affect me. Good thing is, I am in the oil business and in the private sector, no one gives a shit if I fuck hookers. Truth be told, they kind of expect it from me.

I can understand perfectly why she wouldn't want her face shown and that's fine.  Showing her face almost "labels" her as a full-time professional who is doing this as a career (not that that's a bad thing) as opposed to a girl trying to earn a little extra on the side until she gets a job that pays a decent wage.

...the first thing you do is go to work for Pappy Abner?

I guess that's sometimes the pattern. So...the answer is...what?

You wouldn't care, I wouldn't care, Jack wouldn't care, Jill wouldn't care...but someone might? And us ever-so-enlightened folk are such a small few that the rest of the world simply can't catch up?

Could be. I often feel that way myself. Maybe that's my reputation as a conceited snob precedes me wherever I roam. Maybe you're a conceited snob, too? Whatcha think?

Or maybe the world isn't filled with as many sharp objects as we assume. Maybe the nexus family is every bit as open-minded as the rest of us. Whatcha think

and wear that arab garb during sessions ..fuck all of you , you know im right .. oh and since I tease you I have to be honest you got a smoking hottt body ... love your ass ..
 

right on the river Nile?

Sure...you, me and a handful of others may not care.  As well I'm not in HR of a Company with over 25 employees doing background checks.

But I do work with many companies in that situation...as well as larger employee pools.  And the way those entities do their background checks/drug testing/credit testing it would not bode well for a prospect to have their face show up on a cached "Suzycumsalot" website.

I don't consider myself conceited...but I am not stupid either.  This is the world that most of us live in today.  If you want to live in your house on that River Nile...that's terrific.

You and Rod should get together and compare notes.

I happen to run a VERY conservative business. If word leaked out I knowingly hired a working gal, my ass would be in a sling with my clients and my employees jobs would be put in jeopardy.

I have to do background checks in my line of work b4 I hire a fkin soul. If I came across a p4p gal that I recognized b/c she had her clearly recognizable face online, I'd have to pass on her. It sucks. I know. But that is the way my little world works.  

Maybe one day I wont have to, but until  utopia replaces my real world situation, I'm stuck doing what I do to protect REAL good people that bust their ass for me everyday.

If Zoe, or anybody else here, puts there unedited face online, that is there business. They're big girls. But some girls have nothing to lose by doing so. Some girls have everything to lose.

But here's the BIG problem. There's a third category. They are the tons of girls reading this post/thread right now that think at this station in their lives, they have nothing to worry about by putting those pics up of themselves. THAT'S the problem.  

Many are young and naive, or maybe just naive. Many of these gals came out of the womb with a cell phone in their hand and aren't fully aware yet of how the new technological world can bit them in the ass. HARD.

If you care as much about these gals like you say in your previous 500 posts, then drop this nonsense and give these girls better advice. You middling this fkin thing isn't helping anyone.

Yeah, maybe the odds are slim they get fked over by doing it. But how the fk anybody can argue AGAINST making those odds slimmer is just beyond me.

Majority of the girls I've seen had their faces hidden yet it didn't stop me from seeing them, but these girls either had solid reviews or otherwise had solid back channel recommendations from guys I trust. Either that or I was just trying out a brand new girl TOFTT.  

If the girl is showing her face, point blank full frontal view for the whole world to see, I would hope that's the same look she has when she puts a ton of make up on so that she can at least conceal herself somewhat when walking into the hotel and checking in at the front desk without much make up on.  An easier way is for the girl to password protect the set of photos that reveal her face and only give it out to clients who are verified.  

Use password protection for face shots!!  

It's a known fact now: LE of certain counties (maybe all?) are sending names of suspected girls to hotel staff. This would probably not be a problem for johns if the hotels just refuse to let them book. Two girls this year have told me that they have been refused to book due to the staff suspecting them of escorting.  There's a real chance that the staff may even work together with LE to make a catch.  
 
Those who show their faces run a greater risk for obvious reasons but at the same time a lot of guys prefer face shots. I know I do and that's the selfish side of me. Can we really call it "selfish" though, when all we are doing is the desire for the girls to operate in a WYSIWYG manner? (what you see is what you get)  

There are probably those who do not really care because they don't have a family or don't have close ties with their family. Either that or their family already knows. I'm not quite sure how a girl can protect herself from a hotel staff that is actively monitoring suspected girls, the names they get from the police. The only way I can think of, other than using password prtected sites,  is to do an Aldo photoshoot with a ton of make up so that the hotel staff can't say for sure if she's the girl, unless of course they have her real name on the LE black list.

Personally, as along as I can see a rough indication of what her face may look like, it's suffice for me.  
If she is someone who is careful enough to not be sacrificing too much of herself for her privacy outside of this world, I do fully understand that. I don't need to see the whole face as long as she has sufficient reviews from known mongers who state that she's pretty. Of course, "pretty" may differ a bit from person to person but how different can they get especially when I look at the review history of the known mongers and compare if they scored similar for girls we have both seen.  

For example, a girl can take a photo that reveals part of her face but the rest sliced off. She can do this from different angles, postures, poses, and it gives me a pretty good idea if she's a butta-face or not.  

Password protection for face shots!

foolishness? A person's frontal lobe is not fully developed until the age of 25 for most people. That part of the brain deals with long term reasoning and consequences. So a poor 20 something might make a terrible decision to show her face, thinking she has nothing to lose and then some day it comes back to smack her in the arse. She has no idea what she may be doing 10 or 15 years down the road. I know someone who wanted to train seeing eye dogs but couldn't because of this.  

I also know a woman who has made a career out of her former work as a prostitute (a word she uses). For her, showing her face represented the commitment she felt for her choice. She made the choice to show her face probably in her late 20s. But not too many ladies can make a career out of a former career in this world.  

So while I admire and even occasionally envy ladies who show their faces (many dear friends do), I also always imagine the consequences. More power to them, but I'll continue to hide mine.
 

their face or turn away from the camera. Others have the photo cropped so that either the eyes are off the pic or maybe the pic is just eyes. Still others put a blur over their eyes. Obviously, any women with identifying artwork would need to either cover it or have it removed by photoshop.

this a trick question. Whats not to like about a face photo.

Today we plan - tomorrow reality hits. Anyone can think they will do this or that for their entire life, but people change. Anyone who has been married can attest.

The blurring can be taken off by layers. A photographer can mess with the pixels so it's extremely difficult to fully identify the face, but it can be done.  

Many higher end jobs require intelligence background check, which includes more than the standard check. Jobs are in very high demand, so they can be picky. No one should ever think an employer needs them. They are overloaded with applications and resumes from highly qualified, if not overqualified prospects.

Your point about development is well taken.  The providers I patronize are all mature women and so I tend to generalize my ideas based on that age range and attitude.  Most that I have seen professionally (not a big sample size admittedly) reveal their faces in ads.  Were it legal - they would probably be running billboards....

If I were a provider, I would not reveal my face either.  

But I am not noted for the courage of my convictions - which is why I admire it in others and find it attractive.

All I said is, yeah, things happen. But the world ain't quite as bad as you think. Maybe take a weekend off from your very conservative company and get to know some normal people.

If a girl shows a beautiful face then I am certainly more likely to see her.
I leave it to her to weigh the plusses and minuses for herself.

Those women who show their face really only make me concerned for their safety. I just went through a thing where a woman was being stalked, had to change name, phone, move both her incall and her residence, and get new stills. I got dragged into it backwards; would've rather shrug her off as none of my business. It really was a big deal for her, and yes, her ad had facial shots.

Do I think they're courageous? In a way. Mixed with a thought that they're foolish.

So, things can go bad. And apparently, if I was more a man of the world, I'd know that these women can be hounded to death for the rest of their lives. I just haven't dipped my toe into the real world yet, I guess, but Cairo is flooded with the river overflowing its banks, so...maybe my rude awaking is only a heartbeat away.

As far as whether women who show their faces are more likely to get my business, probably not. Who knows what intricacies we unconsciously respond to when checking out the ads? I do respond to attractive images. Bad photos read flaky woman, lack of class, overt con, danger, and sleaze.

So...let's see how the Boys on the Board jump on this. But that's my subject answer to the OP question. Take it for what it's worth.

Full frontal nudity but it is not join happen, is it?

Does it matter what I or anyone else think but I really do think all provider photos should haves full frontal nudity, no photo shopping, no jewelry, etc.

And truth be told, that's the only way the issues surrounding our little 'monde will begin to improve: by people being brave enough to show faces. But it will be a long and tough road, and I just have no desire to be that person. So those who are have my respect- when they do it with the full realization of what possible consequences there could be. For both themselves and those around them. Because one's family and friends might not have signed up for that fight. Or maybe they did.

One day, when you grow up, you'll see the world that is, as opposed to the world you'd wish it to be.  

Until then Mr. Utopia, grab a ticket on the "Reality Bus" and stop giving out the dopey impression that what these girls are doing wont possibly screw them over later in life. That's a disservice to them and potential harmful.

And I do take weekends off. But of course I have to use that downtime to educate fools like you on chat boards like this.

be an advocate for illegal activities that he believes shouldn't be illegal.  I however doubt he has spent any time getting involved in SWOP or any real activities surrounding this game we play.

Rather he'd babble on a board that if he believes that it's OK to put oneself in harms way, then it must be so for all.  

As for him growing up...he's already made comments here that he's of an older generation which perhaps is seeing the end of the road soon.  So in his mind everyone should be of a similar ilk.

I seem to recall that WB was here to observe hooker/john behavior.  I wonder how his thesis is coming along.  He and RodT should be getting those degrees shortly and supplant Dr. Phil as the resident expert.

It's proly the right thing to do. Maybe he's waiting for that 80+ board that TER is contemplating?

I guess when you are in your golden years, no sense really looking out for people who have the rest of their lives to look forward too. There's nothing in it for him.

Maybe now he can free himself of that rub too. BBFS should be a part of his daily menu. By the time he catches anything serious, he will be long gone.

I shouldn't give him any ideas though. He might start telling the younger girls who show their face here to add BBFS to their menu to really drive up those big $ and snag those much desired 10/10's

OR tell them(prospective employers) you have had a drug "problem"; prescription or otherwise.  I have seen it ruin a promising interview that I sat in on.  

I'm answering anyway.
If a provider wants to show her mug here, its her business. She's a grown woman and should understand the potential consequences of doing so.

Apparently everyone expects us to have fucked up chompers or severe acne.
