Personally, I dont see anything wrong with reverse-interviewing a client. If you can do it, and still make money, then thats the way it should be. Why should the clients have the final word as to whether or not you will see them? An escort is paid for his services, but unless they are "kept" they are by no means on retainer for anybody. You don't the rights to somebody just because they advertise.

 

I've turned down a few people in my time, for a variety of reasons. I was polite about it, and was usually taken to task as a consequence. I've even had people threaten bad reviews on this site. And who knows, maybe they even tried, but were stopped by Hoo.

 

 

A\On a sidenote, I find Aiden charming, friendly, very high minded at times, but I also think he has ADD (attention deficit disorder), so I wouldnt get too offended if he doesnt always seem present.

Im sure he is as proud of selling his body as you are of being gay.

RE: we are not owned by clients

 

AMEN!! What a breath of fresh air! No one owns anyone, and as a client, I could never understand those who attack an escort just because he didn't want to "hook up" (see the recent attack against Brad Rudolph). I'd rather have an escort communicate with me and me with him to see if there is going to be a good fit. If neither feels there is, then "no harm no foul" as there are other clients for the escort to pursue and other escorts for the client to pursue. Your above board honesty is indeed refreshing!

 

Those clients who threaten negative reviews, because the escort, as is his right, did not want to be with them really are just "blowing smoke" because as HB says in the FAQ "if you didn't eat at the restaurant, then you can't critique the meal".

I too have turned down potential clients. After so many years of escorting, I really trust my instincts and if I get a bad vibe from a potential client, I'll politely tell them that they would be better served calling someone else. Upon occasion, I have turned down clients because I wasn't into the scene they described. Attitude is the most frequent reason I won't see a client or see them again.

I almost never get involved in a bitch fight between two people, but it's late at night and I've had too much to drink, so what the hell. I feel a need to defend FFF, which I don't think I've ever done before.

 

I agree with you, Flower, that his posts indicate a certain contempt for escorts, which is not nice. However, although many of the posters here obviously genuinely like escorts as a group, there are others who seem to see escorts as objects to be discussed , like other consumer products, or at best as service providers to be criticized as coolly as auto mechanics or lawyers. One doesn't have to like escorts to be interested in them, or attracted to them. I sympathize with escorts who are offended by this, but I would not suggest that a client who has that attitude is somehow a hypocrite for participating in a message board which discusses escorts. If each of us could shame away anyone whose attitude we disliked, this message board would be pretty skimpy.

 

If you really didn't want comments from anyone but FFF, it might have been more appropriate to send a private message to his inbox rather than snap at someone else for commenting about your post. (I suspect there is some history that explains the sharpness of your response, but at this point I'm too tired to do an archival search of any previous interactions between you.)

 

By the way, I always read and usually enjoy your posts.

[VaHawk]

Well, pardon me! Your post was on a public internet forum and subject to response, so I really don't understand your rage at my responding to it. Especially considering your recent defense of thread hijacking as a natural flow of conversation. But I suppose that defense only applies to when posters respond to a topic other than one of your "sacrosanct posts".

 

I will not demean myself by responding in kind with rage and a personal, unqualified "psyco analysis" of you or your character or motives. You are entitled to say whatever you feel like saying, but that does make your position about my response correct or lend your psychobabble about my character any legitimacy.

 

And no, as I'm sure others on this board can tell you, I am not FFF or his alter ego. I am not offended that you would consider me that, but FFF may rightfully feel otherwise.

 

I know we have agreed on some points, but not all points, but if that disagreement engenders such animosity in you, then I apologize as making someone feel that angry is not something I strive for. If you need to rage at me here to release that animosity feel free to do so, as I learned real early in life just to tune it out and not care and realize that I don't have to apologize or defend myself to anyone for being who I am or for feeling how I do about anything.

I wonder why no one has reviewed Aiden Shaw here yet?

[HooBoy]

I was with him for about a 12 hour orgy last year.

 

I did not review him because I did not hire him. I simply lured himm to my hotel with my wit, charm and lies. (I think he found out that the jack off freak was HooBoy about two months ago.)

 

His dick is huge as is his ego and his intellegence.

 

One of the best days of my life. I cherish the book of his poetry that he autographed for me after I ate his ass.

Well, color me envious!

I love this sentence. I need to get it embroidered on a pillow.

I contacted Aiden Shaw and asked if he escorted. He replied that he did not "escort" fulltime and therefore, did not have "rates". He asked me to email him what it was worth to me, and to make it a good offer because he did not have time for this kind of discussion. I thought, well, then set a rate and we won't have to have this type of discussion. But, I ,foolishly, made an offer and he accepted and it turned out to be the absolute worst experience that I have ever had with an escort. It is the only time that I have felt completely and totally ripped off. The guy is versatile, but he didn't want to do anything with me. He was right when he told me that he was not an escort, and I should have listened. He's a hustler trading on his pornstar name. Don't waste your time or your money.
