Answering Your Questions #3: Client and Escort Dynamics

I’m on a minor path of self-destruction…but I’ll explain that later. For now, I’ve decided to answer some of the numerous questions or key-words that my viewer’s google to locate my blog. Yet before I begin, I want to share some metaphors from an old film about the life of high-class courtesan, “Pakeezah” (which translates to ‘pure heart’). In reference to herself, the courtesan says, “Prostitutes are dead bodies and the market is the graveyard…. I’m a dead body that’s lured by life again and again.” She then compared herself to a kite, a kite that is slowly cut away by the forces of wind…where only bits and fragments remain. The pain of her words….they touch me, intimately.

 

1. Do prostitutes like sex or money?

Money drives us to this job. As mentioned in previous posts, prostitutes should not be assumed to be a woman who loves sex. And if she does love sex, this does not imply that she loves sex with her clients. It is very rare for us to work for the purpose of sexual pleasure, yet the irony is we must ‘act’ like it’s natural to us. The lure of money is the appealing part of our work, not the sex. For many, sex is the dreadful part. Many just want to get it over with as quickly as possible. A small minority of girls can enjoy particular clients and feel pleasure, yet the again: the focus is money. I certainly have enjoyed some clients, but regardless I will not sleep/mingle with a man that I don’t love for free. The idea that prostitutes are these horny, hyper-sexual women hardly depicts the reality. Horny women exist regardless of profession.

 

2. What information should an escort obtain from her client?

Just like us, most clients want to be discreet. They might use fake names, because they are married and don’t want to risk their identity being known. Anonymity is central to the business for both escorts and clients. Asking too much personal information may defer clientele, while others are happily to disclose their life biographies. I screen my clients by judging their telephone/email etiquette — I ask them to briefly tell me about their age, nationality, what intentions they for me, etc.

 

3. Why don’t escorts like to tell their real name?

We fear of associating our identity with our profession. Why? This might impact our social mobility, social relationships (such as their family and friends finding out). Prostitution, whether legal or illegal, is still stigmatized. Society has harsh, negative consequences for women who are known to be prostitutes, so we are forced to remain secretive (otherwise we risk a lot of negative social sanctions).

 

4. How to Please a Prostitute/ How to have Good Sex with an Escort?

Well, in a bitter way, I could say: don’t annoy her. Many girls complain about clients who don’t follow our ‘rules’ (or limits), such as touching places without permission. Pleasure is a very subjective question. Giving pleasure to a ‘normal’ woman is very different than a woman who is paid for sex. A woman who gets paid for sex may not want to be ‘pleased’ by her client. Some girls strictly just want money from their client, and refuse to get sexual pleasure (and the good ones fake it). However, a small minority of us might be more accepting.

Once in a while, I encounter a client where I allow him to please me in ways that I forbid others. I permited him only because he gained my trust. I must mention that almost all clients try to give me pleasure, but they fail to do it correctly. Many men seem to think that one sexual technique can apply to all women. This is completely wrong. Any sexual experience is very unique and cannot be performed in a uniform act. Good sex depends on emotional and physical chemistry between the participants — which is rare among clients and escorts. It’s best to test areas, slowly (and with permission, of course), and then gradually proceed.

If I must advise a client on ‘how to have a better experience with an escort’ I would suggest the following techniques clients have done with me: start by giving her a relaxing massage. I recall clients who gave me a full body massage, without touching my erongenous regions right away. Not only will it relax a woman, but it can gain her trust of his touch. Let everything occur slowly, so that she can anticipated every progression of passion. The slow-pace seduction will drive her crazy, and thus (hopefully) have her wanting more. Some of my clients were totally selfless…not tending to their sexual needs, but instead focusing on making me feel relaxed (again, it’s important not to rush!). A good lover will explore what she likes, by gently trying to kiss various parts of her body. Let her guide you to what she likes. This worked with me with certain men, but again, it was all based on chemistry.

Chemistry is key, but also the mood of the hired lady is a deal-breaker. I do let sweet clients give me pleasure when I’m in the ‘mood,’ yet many times I loathe the idea. Sometimes I avoid seeing certain clients, because I know they want to spend the entire appointment in a  ”Girlfriend Experience” state. This consists a romantic ‘boyfriend/girlfriend’ situation where the client wants to kiss, cuddle, give me pleasure, and have sex at the very end of the appointment. The men are very sweet, which seems ideal, but it can be exhausting acting like a ‘girlfriend’ to a man I don’t love/care about. Most of my regular clients are all pleasure giving men, which means I try to avoid seeing them when my mood is bad. It’s even more difficult to see clients when I’m in love with someone.

 

5. How to Make Clients/Men Love You (As an Escort)?

There are no uniform steps to make a client love you — it just happens naturally. From my observations, investing in ‘fake’ behavior doesn’t reap benefits, nor does it attract wholesome people. Be yourself. Love is something we cannot plan or predict. It just happens. I’ve tried experiments of altering my behavior with clients (from acting overly slutty to acting innocent). I found that being as I am works best. I’ve tried to analyze the men who love me: why do they love me? They love me because I was ‘real’ with them. The trend I noticed is men who loved me are ones I didn’t care to impress. I acted indifferent with them upon initial meetings….and genuinely had little interest in being with them. Maybe my independence is appealing for some men, …they find it challenging that I, seemingly, don’t need them.

I could advise women to be manicured, polished and glamourous to make clients love them, but I’ve seen very unpolished girls with plenty of admirers. I no longer believe that investing heavily into cosmetic/external beauty will equate to admirers (sure, exterior beauty might attract men, but that alone wont make them kneel at your feet).

 

6. What is the Difference between an Escort and High-class Escort?

There is no real difference. The only difference is the marketing and approaching various scales of clientele. One girl can be playing two roles: a regular escort, which means more clients, lower price; Or a high-class ‘exclusive’ escort, which means higher priced and limited clientele. Yet at the end of the day, a regular and exclusive escort are the same thing. There is no difference in terms of beauty or services as one may think. I’ve seen stunning women who work for two different agencies….one that’s exclusive and very expensive, and another that’s medium price range with more clientele.

 

7. Do ‘hookers’ love having sex on drugs ?

I found this question quite strange. That’s a terribly wrong analysis. Firstly, women who work while on drugs  usually hate sex more than other sex workers. They are taking drugs to cope with the fact they hate servicing men. Even high-class escorts will resort to ‘numbing’ with subsistence’s in order to make money and ignore their hatred of servicing men.

 

8. What’s it like to be an escort?

(Please check my blog later, as I am writing a post on my personal ‘lifestyle’ as an escort).

 

9. What are Reasons (for men) visiting prostitutes?

A lot of my married clients have a similar reasoning for seeing me: they say they love their wives, but their wives no longer have sex. Or men claim they like variety. In comparison, Kings in ancient Mesopotamia were monogamous in marriage, but had several concubines. Has anything really changed? Due to social expectations, many men marry one woman as a foundation for family, but does it mean they limit the number of ‘unofficial’ women for their sexual purposes? Some men openly say they desire ‘variety’ for sex, while others contend that it’s the fault of the wife. This is something I hear time and time again: Wives stop having sex, and assume that their husband should not have sex either.

There are also other married men who get lots of sex from their wives (even good sex), but they like something ‘different.’ Perhaps they need to prove to themselves that they still have the power to be appealing? Perhaps their egos need a little inflating? Many academics argue that the Western construction of ‘Masculinity’ influences men to prove their so-called ‘manhood’ by sleeping with multiple women (as if women are to be conquered). It’s not so much out of their personal desire solely, but rather societal norms for ‘being a man’ indoctrinates some men to prove themselves as ‘manly.’ So, just in case you’re one of those women who tell men to ‘act like a man’…you are influencing the discourse of men to behave in a ‘Masculine’ construct, thus aiding the gender binary construct. Constructions of identity are very powerful, as they create a so-called ideal. The current constructions of masculinity and femininity in a Western context are very harming, as they serve an elite status quo rather than a collectivist effort.

In some historical contexts, men resorted to ‘comfort women’ in scenarios where ‘proper’ women did not exist, such as situations of war and colonization (which still occurs today).

Some Single/bachelor clients have told me that sex with an escort is better and easier than trying to find it ‘for free’ at nightclubs. It’s easy for a man to pay a woman for sex rather than the effort of convincing a ‘normal woman’ to have sex with no-strings-attached.

As for another calibre of clients: some single clients are truly lonely, and have little interaction with women. They do not seek a prostitute for sex necessarily, but rather they desire intimate companionship with a woman. These are the type of men who need to be hugged, and cuddled, and in these instances I like to think of myself as a healer. Yet in reality I am not helping their situation, because they are seeking love while I am seeking money. I feel compelled to tell these lost souls that they are looking for love in the wrong places.

 

10. What are Some Tips to Stay Positive while being an Escort?

My only suggestion is to work as LESS as possible. Do not work everyday! Try to work once a week, or even less. The industry is very exhausting (emotionally), especially if that is your sole profession. I, myself, work only once a week, or sometimes even less (sometimes I don’t work for months.) Yet even working minimally I am still affected by the negatively. For years I tried  to make the job easier for myself. I told myself I wouldn’t let the work affect my emotions, or touch my soul. But it’s not easy all the time. I work less, so I can stabilize my emotions and do happy things, such as being with people I love. One can simply not block out emotions without using something, usually intoxicates, to distract them from reality. Nobody, regardless of their profession, can constantly remain happy….life is about happiness and sadness. We must experience these emotions, so we can (hopefully) reflect on our lives.

 

11. Do prostitutes remember their strangest clients ?

Yes! How can I forget the men who licked my underarms; or the man who booked me for 8 hours just to kiss my feet, hands, and bottom for the entire 8 hours without any sex; ….or the guy who used to pay to massage me the entire appointment and never even take off his clothes. Those memories still make me think, “..but why?” When a group of escorts come together we do discuss the ‘strange’ and ‘weird’ clients — which can often be quite funny. A lot of girls like to laugh about the ‘fetish’ clients they had, such as, “The foot guy,” “The bottom licker,” etc. For the most part, I don’t mind men with strange fetishes, and I try to understand their unconventional fixations. Personally, I’m quite fascinated by fetishes and have an urge to analyze men with these behaviors. After all, being too ‘vanilla’ gets quite boring.

 

12. How Much Money Do Escorts Make?

It really depends on the girl. Essentially, when one has the ability to manipulate and numb/ignore emotions the amount of money is limitless. Unfortunately, as humans it’s very difficult to ignore our emotions all the time. The two factors that lead to money are: charm (in the form of personality, beauty, and skills) and secondly, emotional sensitivity. I  consider myself quite charming in the sense I am skilled, beautiful and have a dynamic personality, yet I am very emotionally sensitive. Therefore, I don’t work often because I find too many clients stressful and overwhelming. I have never worked full-time as an escort, because I can’t handle it. I am motivated to make money for saving, paying bills, and doing some shopping, but I do not seek more. In the past, I made more money when my needs were greater, but I also spent it lavishly since my lifestyle was different than it is today.  If I wanted, I could work harder and see more clients, but a full-time lifestyle as an escort seems like suicide to me.

 

13. What if a Prostitute sees a Client in Public (outside her work) ?

This has happened to me numerous times. I used to have a huge social phobia about running into clients outside of work. I feared, because clients may approach me, or call me by my alias. And my fears were confirmed when prior clients of mine have approached me in public! I even saw a client while I was shopping with my Mother…it was extremely nerve-racking. I don’t want my clients to know the ‘real’ me that exists in day-to-day life. I just want to remain their fantasy, and nothing else. I had another client shopping with his wife and kids. He saw me looking totally different, wearing no makeup. He came back to see me, and said he was so excited to see me while he was with his wife. This is another reasons why I don’t want to meet too many new clients — I don’t want to be known. Clients represent a separate, negative world that I don’t want to mix with my personal life.

 

14. Is it Unhealthy to Sleep with an Escort? Is it safe to have sex with a Prostitute?

All escorts use PROTECTION. Some girls will do more than others when seduced by money, but for sex we all use condoms. Only an insane/desperate woman would have sex without a condom; and equally only an insane man would sleep with an escort without a condom. It’s absolutely unheard of high-class escorts having unprotected sex with their clients. Many of us are extremely health conscious. However, risks of STI’s can be contracted from non-penetrative acts as well.

The women who take more risks are doing it to meet the demands of clients — because for many clients oral-sex with condoms and no kissing is quite boring. Sadly, some escorts perform the highly sought ‘bare-back blow-job’ (fellatio without a condom) to get more clients. What these women don’t realize is that they are getting short term gain (money) for long-term risk (diseases). As for the bulk of escorts, we take minimal risks: we use a condom for sex and oral sex. Therefore, it is no more/less unhealthy to sleep with an escort if she uses protection during all sex acts.

Given there is minimal skin-to-skin contact, sleeping with a high-class escort can be a bit “unfulfilling” from a client’s perspective. I use the word “unfulfilling” because sex with a prostitute is often phyisical without true intimacy. Amazing sex is based on mind and body stimulation. Thus, sex between a client/prostitute lacks the essential stimulation of the mind. After all, how exhilarating and delicious can sex be without deep kissing, touching, sucking, and tasting ?  Those ‘delicious’ acts are risky with clients, yet many clients demand this. They want the closest to ‘real’ sex as possible. They want their escort to act like their girlfriend: they want to eat her pussy, kiss her lips, and feel her mouth over his manhood. There is tremendous pressure for escorts to go beyond safe limits to make her clients happy. Many clients prefer cheaper women, because it is assumed that cheaper women do ‘more’ for ‘less’ (thus, the risk is increased). Yet there are also very high priced escorts who ‘do it all’ to a more limited clientele. This places tremendous pressure on women in the industry: how can a woman maintain her ‘dignity’ and be successful?

 

15: Do prostitutes have rules / restrictions?

Yes, clients play by our rules, not theirs. Yet there is an irony to that statement. Most escorts promote themselves as women who “Cater to the Clients Needs,” but in reality we set the boundaries and limits. Every girl is unique to what she offers in terms of her services. We all offer sex, but we do it in different ways. For instance, limits/restrictions might include: no kissing or light kissing only, clients can release multiple times or maybe only once, no oral sex without a condom, no receiving of oral sex, no touching between her legs, etc. My restrictions are that everything is ‘covered,’ which means I take no risks. I do not kiss clients, but I must admit that I’ve given up many limitations with the occasional handsome, delicious client. For instance, when I met the Sheik, as a client, we ended up kissing passionately — of course, our chemistry was rare and intense.

As mention, a majority of clients demand riskier services (oral sex without protection, ‘greek,’ etc), so unfortunately a lot of escorts will jeopardize their health to make more money. I feel disgusted when a prospective client, who’s never met me yet, will ask if perform ‘natural French’ which is a oral sex without a condom. How can he take such a risk with a woman whose history is unknown? Likewise, most clients request to service me between my legs with their mouths, which seems flattering, but I can’t help but wonder: don’t clients think of how many other men have touched my body?  How can he be sure that I am ‘clean?’ What I realized is that many men get aroused by the idea of a ‘dirty’ woman. By no means am I ‘dirty,’ but I have slept with countless men….and that fact alone is a fantasy for some men.

Sex workers might advertise ‘passionate’ services or ‘porn-star’ services to attract a more clientele, but the reality is we cannot perform uniform techniques with every single client we encounter. Human sexuality is not uniform, and attempting uniformity is a bad way at approaching others. Sure, we have restrictions, but they are deeply influenced by the chemistry we develop with clients. To expect a sex worker to give a stellar performance with every client is a very unrealistic, dehumanizing expectation.

Finally, a rare breed of clients have their own terms in addition to hers. For instance, a rare category of clients do not seek sexual intercourse with escorts — instead they may just seek oral or hand release, or perhaps they just want to play with themselves in the company of a beautiful woman. There may be norms and patterns in sexual behaviour, but every experience is still unique.

  1. Mike

    You are awesome and I learn so much reading your blog. I am seeing a few providers who I really care for and loyal to and often wonder about what their lives are like. You have given me such a good perspective. I look forward to reading your book one day so consider writing one soon. :-)

    • escortdiary

      Thanks Mike

      I’m glad to share insight. It’s great that you, as an escort patron, are keen to learn about your providers.

  2. Ivan

    Always nice to read your thoughts =), and had no idea you worked once per week i thought it was more often for some reason…

    • escortdiary

      Thank you Ivan.

      Well lately I barely work at all..because I get enough from one.

      Occasionally I’ll work more frequently, but then I’ll take a long break.

      • Ivan

        curious… the sheik has no idea that you work from time to time? for some reason i cant picture him accepting this.

  3. mr.charlie

    I recently found out that this girl i have been seeing is an escort. I truly care for her, but I am very confused and am unsure how to react.
    I need advice

  4. Hope

    In response to comment by Mr.charlie:
    As an escort myself, I can tell you it is just a job to her and most likely she valued that you treated her like a regular and beautiful woman that she is. I would say that being an escort is considered so shameful that it is the one lie you should really try to forgive her for telling you. How you proceed from there is up to you two, but please try to forgive her.

    @Exotic Escort Diary: I love this blog, I just found it. I am a mom and I am supporting my kid because her father left me with nothing. I was reading your categories and liked it, but i think you forgot the one where moms go, but i don’t usually tell my clients. I guess I didn’t fit into any of your categories and to me providing feels like a healthy choice, but as i age i know i will need a new way and I sometimes fear my daughter will judge me, but not that much as my entire family and many of my friends accept what i do. She is just too young to know now.
    Other than this I agree with much of what you say, but when i think of quitting i get sad and I do like the sex maybe 7/10 times, but a lot of my clients are sexy and take really good care of themselves. I only have 0-5 appts a week and am expensive and like longer appts. On rare occasions, I use booze to numb myself, but mainly, it is more just to relax a bit more during appt. When I use this to numb myself it is usually because I cannot stand my client, yet I pretend to.

    I hope you can learn to love yourself. A money addiction can be overcome and fear of being abandoned like you were when your parents split can also be overcome. I have been going to therapy for 2 years about my ex and slowly am learning to love myself again. it is slow and aging can be hard, but it is good. You seem like you are using your providing to bring yourself ahead and you should be proud of yourself that.

    Do you study in English? I am wanting to apply to grad schools abroad.

  5. Ana

    Hi dear,
    I’ve just stumbled on your blog yesterday and I can’t stop reading it. Your writing style is enticing. It reminds me of the book I read by Betsy Prioleau “Seductress”. Very empowering.

  6. Aman

    hi I found your blog very interesting you have given a nice synopsis about life of an a modern high class escort and the challenges you face about keeping yourself under limits, but I think lof of girls join it because its an easy money as they think but its not because its quite nerve reckoning to be at your best all the time and disconnecting from your self just to give them pleasure and make them feel like a man and topping or their egos that they can manipulate as much as many women they want.
    But their are many beautiful women working in your profession what makes them to choose this profession is it the money or some other factor like they are forced into it by someone or they are into drugs and wana live a lavish lifestyle, Are most girls from your professional are struggling model and actresses who couldn’t get any break in the glamour industry turn to the world’s oldest profession to support themself and their habbits.

    • escortdiary

      Thank you for commenting.

      You said it well: lots of girls join it because of ‘easy’ money.

      Yes, indeed. Some women, who are not forced into this industry, do think it’s ‘easy’ money. But many of these women are totally unaware of the implications of their entering of the sex industry. I wrote about this in previous posts, where a lot of women are selling themselves for social prestige. No, these types are not struggling for survival, but rather they want money so they can enhance their material possessions, which thus elevates their social status. This is very problematic, because some women have this idea that their worth is shallow based. The question that needs to be addressed is: Why are many women being conditioned to feel they NEED material items to be worthy? This is the outcome of neoliberal ideology, where individualism and self-worth are emphasized (which is problematic, because self-worth becomes equated material consumption).

  7. UpscaleHooker

    I am just going to say, you are very lucky if you can always have those boundaries and consistently have good reviews. I don’t know what country you are from, but in the U.S to make a living one pretty much has to offer GFE. This includes DFK (deep french kissing..ewwwww) and blowjobs without a condom and oral sex on the lady. In fact, they usually will get irritated if you wont let them finish in your mouth and get mad if you wont let them rough finger your vagina to induce ‘squirting.’ I don’t let them rough finger me, I don’t do cum in mouth, and I try to keep their tongue from reaching my throat. I also don’t do ‘stripper slide’ which is when he wants to rub his penis on my bare vagina with no condom. They sometimes get mad about these things and I have to almost slap them to make them stop. So in sum, full gfe is basically required to good money and steady work. And every experience must be uniform and equal in passion, dfk, uncovered oral, oral on me, etc. Or i can risk a bad review and the guys alwys sympathize with each other saying ‘oh I’m sorry she treated you like that you just wanted full gfe’ and it’s disgusting. But these things are typically universal from 100 per hour ladies all the way up to 900 per hour ladies. I am just saying it is hard to have a good reputation by being limited, ‘safe’ gfe. There have been a few times I just could not let the guy’s tongue down my throat and give the full experience and yes those times I did receive reviews saying I was ‘cold.’ Yes many guys do not post reviews. But let’s face it, 90% of those who see me (us, you, the general market) are hobbyists meaning they either write reviews or analyze reviews heavily. It is horrible. But yeah, I would love to live in a place where full gfe is not required to make a good income.

    • escortdiary

      Thank you for commenting. I have to say what you shared is very disheartening. Indeed there are really tragic and dark sides to the sex industry, which you mentioned the popularity of degrading acts of sex. I have never even heard of this ‘stripper slide,’ which sounds very degrading. It is terrifying knowing some girls actually tolerate the types of acts you mentioned with just any client, because it’s impossible to assume these women would enjoy ‘everything’ with just any client. Sadly, many women in this industry are in a desperate situation, where this is their only viable option of profiting. It is very sad indeed.

      However, in light of what you said, I want to note that it is not so much universal as it seems. The whole experience really depends on the context (in which setting it occurred), and the circumstances/attitude of both the client and the escort. I, myself, do a safe GFE, where a condom is used for everything. A lot of men want more than this (riskier services), and they also want cheaper rates. I simply ignore these type of clients, and instead I cater to a minority of clientele who are discerning themselves. I always specifically outline that I absolutely DO NOT do anything risky, so they know what to expect. Thankfully, I am in a position where I can reject bookings if prospective clients do not ‘dance to my tune.’ However, I am aware that many women are not in my position to be so discerning with their clients, which is very unfortunate. To give some hope: there are clients (though, a minority) who strictly prefer women who DO NOT do ‘everything.’ It’s best to try to cater to those type of clients, and often such men are willing to pay higher prices for ‘quality’ over ‘quantity.’

      It’s also very unfortunate how ladies ‘services’ are constructed and degraded in reviews. I have a long awaited post dedicated to the topic of reviews, which this phenomena, alone, is very dehumanizing. Reviews certainly appeal to a ‘type’ of man, but anyone with an inking of intellect and humanity knows they are invalid depictions.

  8. leslie

    Hi sweety hey I’m an escort also kinda new after 1 yr but how can I be sure if the guy is not a cop or under cover cop….. I’m from Tx. And I only do just out calls only.

  9. Jane

    Hi. I have read that in your initial interview with a client you ask them for bits of information for example their age, nationality, and what their intentions are for you, is there anything else that I should find out from the client before agreeing to see them? Once you screen their email or telephone interview do you also do a secondary screening in person before your first encounter?

  10. Jane

    Hi. When you agree to see a client for the first time, how do you ensure your safety? Do you let someone you trust know where you are, who you are and how long you are going to be so that if something doesn’t go as planned you have a backup or do you simply take some sort of protection with you? Have you ever needed protection before?

    • escortdiary

      It’s a good idea to let someone you trust to check on you. You could also elect to live in a place that has it’s own security guards, which gives a sense of protection. If you are doing out-calls, only do so at high-end reputable hotels with their own security. I am extremely discerning with my clients, so I am also basing a lot of my security on my own sense of judgement. I have only had one scary incident at hotel overseas, where I saw a client who was extremely drunk and persistant. Thankfully, I called the hotel reception and they helped me. I wrote about it here: http://exoticescortdiary.com/2012/05/22/women-in-the-sex-industry-are-vulnerable/
      In all other cases, thankfully, my clients have been respectful and good.
