Photographs in ads showing face

Oh right like I am going to trust the same guys who thought they found my I.D. with a picture of my face? NOT! You have no idea what some men and women are capable of doing here gimmethat. If you did you would NEVER assume that just because a guy is screened that it would stop him from hurting one person. You want me to believe that the very same people who live for outing providers who won't see them have our best interest in mind? Don't think so. How could we prove it was him who posted the pictures publicly anyway if they were to get out? And who would hold him accountable even so? NO ONE!

It makes no difference if she is a super model based on 99 percent of opinions...some one is always going to find that same girl not as attractive as the next person.

Sure some girls mask age, acne, etc. but um that would come out in reviews eventually if she was viewed as butt ugly lol. If she has 100 reviews and they all rated her at least "attractive" I doubt she is a butterface lol. Then again, some guys might still think so. I don't doubt that what you are saying is true, but consider which girls you are speaking of. Some think they are a solid 10 and nothing you say is going to convince them otherwise lol. I would never rate myself higher than an 8 and that depends who I am standing next to lol. Put Megan Fox next to me, and I just fell to a 6...just being a realist.

People with nothing to lose may take more risks.....I am not one of those people.

I don't ask my clients for pictures of their faces, so don't ask us. We are the ones who will be made out as the whores while all you guys get is a slap on the wrist and a high five...maybe even your own talk show like Spitzer!

There's sepcial make-up out there to cover up tattoos for photo shoots or just because.....but you might want to make mention of the fact that you do indeed have tats as that is a dealbreaker for some guys. Originally Posted by heatherelite

I never thought about using makeup to cover up tattoos in regards to safety/privacy concerns, thank you!!

I understand the many reasons why a provider would not want her face visable in hobby photos. It is her life and her choice. Not showing a recognisable face however does not grant anonimity by itself. Are there identifying tatoos or scin blemishes. Is the background, well . . .your livingroom?

As a hobbyist, it helps me to see a women;s face when deciding to see someone. Expression, demenor, the way she wears her hair, all help. The fact that she does, or does not show her face tells me something about how she views herself as a provider too.

In the end, its not a deal breaker or maker for me. In the end, it is up to the provider.

Well I will make it real simple for you lol. I am not PROUD of what I do, nor would anyone in my family be. So even if I didn't have anything else going on, I still would not want the check out girl at Rouse's looking at me funny because she saw me on the net selling my "time." We can dress it up here all we want calling ourselves companions, courtesans, whatever. The real world who does not understand this business will never find it appealing or worthy of respect. No father wants to see his little girl doing this....would you?

I also agree that taking photos in your own home is risky as well which is why I use other people's houses and hotels. No tats to speak of, and everyone under the sun has the same belly ring as I do lol. The one thing that might give me away is my kitty because it is not similiar to many others I have seen, but only a guy who has slept with me would know for sure it's me.

I always laugh when I see so called college students doing this...what school are they attending lol. I would be kicked out in a heartbeat, and no way would I ever be able to get a job. I guess some schools are more easy going than others. Originally Posted by London Rayne

Certainly your family might not be proud. Although, as a father (and one that is way off the charts when it comes to beliefs about what is normal), I will support my daughter so that she is the best at whatever she choses to do with her life (but that should be a separate topic!).

I would hope the issue of showing your face is a matter of either safety or professional (outside of this particular profession) reputation. Like you said, you don't want the check out girl to recognize you (but what the hell is she doing cruising escorts sites?). But don't hide it because you aren't proud of what you are doing. I do respect a provider's choice of anonymity, but like any business that choses to refrain from full disclosure, some customers will buy and some won't. I don't see anything wrong. It's just a choice.

I would be kicked out of school and I would never be able to get a job because of it...that's NOT cool lol, but I do thank you for supporting us and any woman who does this. That's just not indictive of what am employer expects from his President, CEO or whatever a person wants to be later in life.

I am being realistic, and I know I lose money but that's better than tossing my hard work down the drain for an hour's worth wouldn't you say? I lose money every time I ask a guy for personal info. when he does not have references, when I refuse to work weekends locally because I won't sacrifice my family time, so if I lose some more for being discreet to protect both me and my clients...oh well lol.

I have a lot more clients I would lose by going the other route because many married men do in fact take me out in public where they would be exposed...it's not only about my privacy. If all they wanted was a private romp it would not really matter to them, but I am guessing that's not the case since I rarely stay in a hotel room my entire date. I won't even bring up how easy it is for someone to snap a pic from a cell phone of a powerful man and an escort together lol.
I dont believe in showing my face on ad you never know who is looking. After someone is verified I have no problem sending a face pic though
I do hide my face and identifying marks like tatoos. Simply because of the career field I will join (if the God willing) I dont want anyone black male or use it to try and knock me down in anyway
I imagine most providers hide their face for safety reasons and the obvious fear of being outted.
I also think if we guys were doing this we would do the same. Often when I see full face shots I wonder if it is B&S

Discretion

Here is another perspective. . .

Face shots in ads and other public venues makes for lazy hobbying. Having been in the hobby for a few decades, let me tell you that the internet is both a blessing and a curse. It is wonderful to have access to all this information in multimedia at your fingertips. . .

BUT

. . .it worries me when gents get so insistent on the AD having a face pic. For the safety of ladies and gents alike, I prefer a provider that shows enough to see her physical attributes while using discretion and then provides more revealing photos upon screening. This protects both of us.

If you are not doing secondary and yes, even tertiary research when it comes to booking with a new provider you are in for trouble. If you don't look at the big picture and take time to read reviews, check other references and sources beyond seeing a pretty face on an ad with the right price and location you are going to have a less than desirable overall hobby experience.

Remember "a face can launch a thousand ships" so getting you in a cash-and-dash, leo sting, or worse is a cakewalk.

It worries me when guys put so much importance into a face pic on a public ad.

And if you use hotels, you don't want the hotel employees matching you up to your online ads!
Yes they do that!

No it's never happened to me, but I've seen plenty of news reports and testimony from other ladies who it HAS happened to. I used to show my face, but when reports like that started surfacing in the past year or so, I stopped showing it. I use this avatar only on a couple of forums.
