Print ad Hustlers vs. Agency Hustlers

[Guest Mikki]

Are the hustlers listed as escorts and models in Frontiers considered street hustlers? I think some of the ones without pictures and no reviews are nothing more than street hustlers. In fact, at least with a street hustler you know what you are getting. I always get confused with this issue here in LA. I read some of those ads, and people tell me they have been running for years and no one ever can say they have been with one of those guys.

I would not consider them street hustlers unless they are on the street or perhaps in the bars. The ones who advertise obviously have a phone and if they advertise over a period, they probably have an apartment--and a shower. My impression is that the guys with larger, more expensive ads in Frontiers are doing it for a living or a large part of their income. The ads dont come cheap so they answer back and tend to business. They hope for repeat clients, so they will probably be clean etc. The guys with very small ads often have other jobs and just escort when and if they feel like it for a little added income. They often do not respond to your call and probably will not if you wait until evening to call. Some of the small ads are guys who are just starting and cant afford the bid ad.
