Standards in the Escort Industry
I met a most delightful client last night and he showed me on his laptop how he had found me - got into Google, Manchester escorts, Punterlink, I'm first in the list...
I was somewhat horrified to see that my blog was part of my listing, and since I'd abandoned it due to the fact that I don't tolerate fools gladly, and I was attracting comments from other escorts I didn't have much respect for, I thought - why bother? However seeing that Blog as part of my listing I thought I'd add something new and hope for the best.
So I got in here and if I was horrified at seeing the blog as part of my listing, I was more than horrified at the pornographic blog entries that greeted me as I got into this section.
The public face of escorting has become so pornographic and I think this is so sad. It does a disservice to the ladies who still act like ladies and provide quality companionship experience, and to the gentleman who are lovely clients - it's demeaning to us both.
What bothers me is the effect of the pornographic content on both men and women (What do I mean by pornographic? - Not just too-revealing photos, but lists of sexual services. Yeuk.). I'm sure a lot of women are being influenced into vulgar behaviour that they'd rather not do, but feel they have to because of market conditions. And the men - well, I feel sorry for them that they are degraded by the sight of so many women disrespecting themselves and bringing themselves down to such a low, numb level. It also takes away from the quality of experience for them. They are currently being educated to look upon women in a very distorted manner. There are men who want quality companionship and sex, and you can't have real quality with someone who is seeing guys 24/7 and doing anything they ask without discrimination.
I'm sure some fools will read the above and come out with the comments - She doesn't like sex! She used words like 'vulgar', 'disrespect' etc!
For the record, sex is my favourite thing, but that's because I respect myself and whoever I'm with, and want the highest quality experience for us both.
When this client called last night he asked what I 'did'. Restraining my temper, and realising the paucity of industry conditions that might lead to such a comment, I told him if he was looking for the FACTORY EXPERIENCE I wouldn't be it.
When we met later he told me he didn't mean to offend, he didn't know what to ask. He also said he was new to the arena, which I'm sure most people reading this won't believe. Personally I did. We had a wonderful time which we will very likely repeat in the near future.
Another client whose company I've enjoyed recently (who also asked me what I 'did' on the phone and I put him straight) was also in a kind of shock, commenting how amazed he was that we spent time talking and enjoying each others' company. I explained that traditionally that's what high class courtesans did - you spent time enjoying each others' company, and any sex that happened was usually a miniscule part of the deal. He also is someone I have seen more than once, so to any women who are thinking that behaving like a lady and a human being doesn't sell - well, I don't work 24/7 (anyhow I have another business), but I do get to have wonderful times and I do very often get guys who spontaneously give me more money than agreed, and who I maintain a relationship with, like old lovers and friends. Our time together enriches both of us.
OK I'm signing off now, I don't know whether I'll check to see responses given the low level of intelligence in initial responses before, but I do hope people who support my views will speak up - it does influence people in a good way - and any delightful men who are in agreement and would like to meet up, please view my website!

...there is something not right about the Airport Amy site. Personally I think it is an attempt at a rip-off by using an ambiguous web-site to imply that full service might be on offer but in fact only erotic massage is available. The web-site doesn't really discuss the services on offer so the regular punter is forced to be explicit on the phone. "Airport Amy" then refuses to discuss services on the grounds that she "is a high class escort and high class escorts don't indulge in pornographic conversations". Foolish Punter then may decide to take a chance and book a date. Amy turns up at posh airport hotel, punter pays in advance - and gets nothing more than a bit of aromatherapy. Punter can't complain as full service wasn't promised anyway and he won't want to make a fuss in a posh hotel. Punter goes away sexually frustrated and embarrassed at being ripped-off and Airport Amy goes away £200 richer for giving a £35 massage.
If this is the case then this is a new twist to the kind of rip-offs that were regularly perpetrated on punters visiting parlours, co-ops and walk-ups in big cities that were to a great extent exposed by punter review sites over the last few years. Sadly the con-artists are starting to catch-up with the technology so we are seeing more and more of the bottom-end of the market washing up on the internet.
If I've got it wrong Amy then I apologise, but its time for you to cut the cr*p and come clean on the types of services you are really offering on your web-site. Otherwise I for one would advise punters looking for full-service to look elsewhere - £200 is a lot of money to spend on a massage.

Have you seen Amy's website? It's covered in porn. She became disillusioned with this site when she complained that people were talking to her in an indiscreet fasion, people explained that that might be why, and she took offense.
Of course it's important to discuss services. We all have different requirements and confort levels. Many men wouldn't enjoy having sex with someone but not kissing, so they need to know if the escort is comfortable with that service. What on earth is wrong with that?
My opinion is currently leaning towards Amy not being a real escort, but seeking some kind of amusement here. If she is for real, she has superiority, entitlement, and persecution issues up the wazzoo.

We all have ways of working that suit us. There is no standard formula (God if there was we would stick to our 9-to-5's). How we work is determined by the people we are (personalities, experiences etc), our circumstances (balancing it with other pursuits) and whether or not our method is delivering the clients we want (quality and quantity).
(This is one of those things I wish I knew when I first started out lol.)
If Amy is part time, as quite a few escorts are, then maybe a time waster has actual financial/work place implications? i.e. she could have taken time off from her other business. Likewise, a timewaster for an at-home mom is stealing time from her loved ones... Each escort determines the value of her time being wasted and adopts her working practices accordingly.
Amy, I fully understand where you are coming from regarding 'pornographic' slants and services breakdowns.
Even though I am not a high stake courtesan (as I like to refer to them :-), I have never felt the need to discuss services. We all know that 'services' are part of the deal so I fail the see the need for discussion. It matters not whether another escort in my area does, that is HER way of working! and I can respect that.
A lot of thought and time goes into my personally designed escort web presence. Although I do not list a menu, anyone who takes the time to read my site will be able to discern, from a carefully crafted prose, what type of 'services' are provided. (It is all there, if you take the time to read between the lines... and it is not that long a prose lol)
When I receive a phone call enquiring about what's on offer, it is immediately clear to me that the gentleman has not bothered to read my website. I get the impression of a 'saw-pics-and-called' guy and I refer him elsewhere (very politely I hasten to add).
Someone for whom looks (or lack of lol) and specific services are the criteria will not have a problem finding a suitable escort. The vast majority of escorts have appealing looks and services can easily be searched for in reviews or on websites that list them.
Just like there are escorts who work in this way, there are clients to match. They tend to be less likely to use esocrt forums and write reviews (we all know how much the 'I will not go into details' brigade get flamed' lol) so I sometimes feel that they are quite unrepresented online. They do exist though, and some would even book a long date with an escort they have never met without asking about services... (I am sure we have all met clients who dont fit the mould, whatever that is)
You do not need to be a high class courtesan to work in this way. Working in this way does not mean you are a high class courtesan.
Speaking of which, there are many reasons why high class courtesans do not discuss services.
The first that comes to mind is that the ones we get to see online tend to be US based where prostitution is illegal. They therefore will not go into details, will they?
Another reason, which a friend of mine volunteered, is that most if not all services are provided... i.e. think of them as Ultimate Service Providers. (Please note that I am not saying all high class courtesans provide most if not all services. How would I know lol)

Perhaps you were referring to my previous posting. Unfortunately it is difficult to describe the horrors of my indulgence with "pornstar experience" without giving graphic detail. There is also good reason for this graphic blog entry since there is a moral to the story which will be detailed in my next entry.
It can be a sign of high intelligence that people can discuss matters sexual without the burden of society's political correctness, leaving the hang-ups inculcated in them by religion, their parents and peers, teachers and the media at the door of puberty. Fortunately many of the finest writers of the last one hundred years have realised this and have continued to advance human enlightenment by pushing on the boundaries of good taste often illuminating their fiction by re-living tales of their own debauched existence through the imaginary characters they have created.
It is impossible to discuss anything intelligently with a closed mind. Having an open mind with regard to sex is only the beginning of personal enlightenment.
I hope this response has been sufficiently intelligent for you.

Just in the comment? I thought the whole entry was hilarious. I can't work out if this girl is serious, a simple troll, or trying to get more hits to her website so she can get more cash from the porn ads.

I might not be at the more expensive side of the business but I charge what I think is reasonable for the service I provide and the area I am in. I aim to earn a decent living at something that i enjoy doing and gives me the flexibility to carry out certain responsibilities I have in life.
I mix with a lot of Escorts who are at the more expensive side of the industry and they do discuss their services with prospective clients. If I was a client I would never book anyone not knowing what I might be receiving for my hard earned money.
The only people in the business who dont talk about money or services are the true Courtisans, and thats an entirely different market.
Good luck to you if you can get guys to book without knowing whats on offer. I personally like a guy to ask questions so I can get a feeling for what he is after, what he is like and whether I would like to meet him or not. If a guy gets too sepcific, or pornographic on the phone, it usually means he is a timewaster and just wants a freebie sex phone chat, and he soon gets cut off!
There are some blog sites which work as diary entries and no comments can be added. However, I like this site and the way you can blog and make comments, makes it more conversational. And I like to hear others views.

Do I detect a slight hint of Hyacinth Bucket in Amy's last comment to Penny. Unless I am mistaken it sounded condescending. Forgive me if I am wrong,
"It is not the practice at the more expensive end of the industry to talk about sexual practices"
Well I suppose my prices are expensive to some, and I do not have a list of "practices" on my site BUT lets be sensible occasionally the client needs to know a little about what is on offer before he hands over his hard earned dosh!
I would definately want to know what he expected before I met him, otherwise you could end up on a date with maybe him expecting "A" and getting a tad peeved if it was not provided, the client does need to know to a degree what to expect ie owo "A" obviously really silly indepth things, that dont apply to what you provide are unacceptable.
"They sounded like nice guys" that can be very deceptive, more often than not they are, but nice guys also like some strange "practices".
Im a nice lady (whatever nice is) you should hear my "posh" educated voice, my middleclass upbringing, private education etc etc I go on lots of expensive dinner dates with expensive men, but "at the end of the day" (how I hate that saying) and however well we present ourselves, we are all whores. I personally feel we have no right to judge another, unless they are seriously hurting someone else.

When you go to a restaurant according to one survey the most important aspect of the "occasion" is the welcome, more so than the quality of the food. But fundamentally one has gone out to eat.
Is escorting not much the same, pleasant meeting from both sides, but basically the expected result is having sex.
So you might be being a little hard on the "consumer" in expecting them all to be polite, non pornographic, lovely people. Just as in all walks of life rich/poor educated or not some are nice some are not. Escorting and the clients are no different.
You work in Harrods some customers are very pleasant some are most definitely not, but they have common ground , they all have money to spend.
What I'm trying to say is don't be too judgemental.
pity your football team is losing its touch!!!

Hi Penny, thanks for your response. You raised a good point - the responses. I'm new to blogging and my understanding when I started the blog was that a blog was an online diary. I certainly didn't understand that people are free to make comments on that.
Re. the clients I saw - I saw them because we did not go into specifics and they sounded like nice guys. If they had wanted to go into details I would not have continued speaking with them or met with them, and we would have been deprived of great experiences. It's not the practice at the more expensive end of the industry to talk about sexual practices and I see no reason at a less expensive level of the industry to go that way.
All the best,
Airport Amy. x

Firstly, I hope im not going to be included in the 'low level of intelligence' that you refer to.
To be honest Ive not come across that on here. I like to state my views, just as you do, and welcome all responses, positive or negative and those inbetweenies. Its healthy to have a good debate on things, as long as we give each other respect and not be abusive.
I too am not keen on the 'pornographic' side of the industry. I state on my site what i do and dont do, and I certainly dont mind if a caller asks me again, I politely respond with the information. After all they might have seen my site, recorded my phone number, and then phoned for some more information and to see what I sound like. I then get a chance to chat to the caller, get an idea about him and what he is after. I wouldnt if he didnt ask me questions, or me him. So im left wondering Amy, why do you get so upset when guys ask you what services you provide? As you stated that two recent clients did this and you saw them and they appeared to be very nice.
Another question, why blog if you dont want to see the responses you may have?
I blog about things that affect and/or interest me, in the hope others who read it find these things of interest too and will comment. That way I get others views on these matters too. My Blogs dont always get a response, and I dont respond to all the blogs I read.
But its certainly nice to see what others think and have the opportunity to comment should I wish to.
