So maybe I just don't get it, I am young after all (two months away from 19), but I just don't get escort services. It sounds to me like a prostitution but apparently that's illegal just about everywhere, but escort services are not. Mind the dumb questions but its just something that's I've been curious about. Are escort services just fancily marketed prostitutes? If anyone knows (which I'm sure someone here does) buy me a clue, please. thanks in advance.

I have a buddy (and yes it's a buddy and not me) who frequently uses "Escort services". He claims that if you ask for "full service" you get just exactly that. If you have to ask what full service includes then you are likely to be denied service. He pays anywhere from $150 to $250 depending on how hard he feels like negotiating. The legit service providers can claim no knowledge of what the professional provides to her client once she's put on an assignment. It's all about posturing for plausible deniability. There may be legitimate companionship services out there that are not Ho's in sheeps clothing but from what Ray tells me they are pretty much all in the "full service" business.

yes, i was at a birthday party one time, after all the girlfriends left, me and me mates ordered the birthday boy an escort for the rest of the night. When she arrived she negotiated the initial "show", it was supposed to be about 20 minutes, but it was more like 8. Then we put her in a room and she gave blowjobs for 20 bucks a piece, she insisted on condoms for this. So to answere your question, the "service" is the supply of a girl to put on a show. And then she negotiates "tips" amongst the group. She does prostitute herself after her "show". Atleast most of them do

I don't blame some guys for resorting to using escort services because dating is hard work and time-consuming. Sometimes a man just doesn't have the time and energy to spend on trying to get a woman to like him, and sometimes it's hard to find women willing to have sex so escorts provide an alternative (if it can be afforded).

Escorts operate on the principle of paying someone to accompany you, generally to a social event or somesuch (ie. a fake date). A prostitute operates on the principle of paying someone to bone you. Escorts are legal because their job description doesn't overtly state "sex", and sex is either optional, depending how much the escort likes you and of his/her own choice, or "full service" as was said before, although the full service thing is illegal, just like "full body" massage parlours.

laredo doesnt have anything like that, but people that still want something along those lines just go across the river and bring a girl back. people that i've heard that have done it paid about 100 bucks.

Escorts are more than just hookers. You can get a hot date to make you look better, full service if you want sex, and I think the term is "party girl" for someone who will come to your place and get high with you (usually coke or heroin, from what I hear, and you're expected to provide some for her.)

well, prostitution is legal, in Canada, but being a John isn't, go figure

I've got to ask -- what's the point of having sex with someone who doesn't like you? I completely don't get it. I'd rather masturbate at that point.

lunchbox

a lot of times i think its just the opportunity to sleep with someone who you wouldn't get that chance with any other time. I'm not talking run of the mill hookers, I know this place in London that has beauties and well, that would be the allure if I did such a thing.

The Golden Apple - London Escorts

I don't recall where I got pointed to that site, but it gives us some real world examples to work with.

I think it's pretty much a given that an escort will be at least above average in attractiveness.

edit: Dayumn! I just looked at that website, and they make 300 pounds an hour on average! That's like 700 dollars an hour Canadian.

everyone knows there's a reason canadian money looks like monopology money just kidding, of course.

Fear my wrath. I own Boardwalk AND Park Place. I'm charging YOU full rent when you land on it for that snippy remark.

PS - It's still around 500-600 USD, so laugh it up. :P

Penndude

There are some very hot escorts out there who will offer FS, but not GFE. Escorts from agencies are way more spendy than independents.

Escorts are, generally speaking, prostitutes.

Escort services advertise that you are buying their time with you and not their services. This is done with a nod and a wink.

They cannot advertise that they are offering sex for money so they say what you are paying for is their time... anything else that happens between consenting adults is seperate.

Some men, do use escorts to go with them to parties, dinner, etc. They almost always cap off the evening with sex. The dinner, etc. is just preamble. The men that do this tend to have enough money to spend on women they can pay to hang out with before they have sex with them...

Most men just arrange for the sex part.

When I was in Dallas one time in a 2 week training course for a company a buddy and myself went out one night. We hit up some decent clubs, and then decided hey...lets go to a strip club.

Well decided to go back to our hotel and thumb through a phone book to find a decent one when we came across escorts. Niether of us had ever called one. We figured it was a girl that would come over, dance, take tips in the g-string, and leave. We figured we would probably spend $200+ anyway at the club, so said fuck it...lets just get a dancer to come here. So we called, ordred a girl, and about 30 mins later an attractive girl showed up.

She starts off by telling us she doesnt have sex, but does give head. We were both kinda freaked out. Again, that seems like prostitution to me. She danced for us...naked...no place to put some bills heh. And she wanted to give us head. I declined, as I am somewhat uncomfortable in PAYING a girl I dont know to blow me. My bud happily accepted. She blew him, cleaned up, and left 300 bucks (200 from my bud).

I can see the fact guys use these. I mean hell you DO pay for a blow in one way or another. You pay for your sex one way or another, and using one just seems to cut out the BS, and games imo.

I for one like the games, and conversation, and anticipation, so I dont use them, but I dont see the problem.
