If he is new to me, I'll take my own vehicle.... but I will ride along with trusted regular clients.

The difference between being an "escort" and being a "hooker" is your level of willingness to see someone outside of the bedroom. Part of being a professional is having more to you than the ability to be a mattress actress. Some guys just want a piece of ass... but many guys want more.

Professionals in all walks of life will have meals with clients where they are not being paid in order to cultivate good will and future business. Particularly in the sales industry. Providing is a sales industry-- albeit black market.
Fancy you need to open your mind to new things. Your "business" will greatly improve without the negative thoughts.

Grace, that's a great post. You have what I would consider to be a tremendous concept of the difference between a hooker and an escort. I'm sure you're aware there are many more differences than the one you mention, but there are many and they are huge differences.

A hooker fucks or sucks for money. An escort, IMO, is so much more and realizes that the reason many of us are happy to donate much more to an escort is because of the enhanced overall experience. The better the experience you provide, the more you can ask, and deserve, for your services.

Again, great post.

As I said, just my opinion, but I recognize different levels within the profession. Just as I would consider differences within any profession. There are Realtors, landscapers, lawyers, mechanics - practically any profession - that do the bare minimum to get by or that make the extra effort to excel. Those that go the extra mile, again, IMO, command and deserve higher compensation. Kind of like the difference between a minor league and major league baseball player.

He seems to be dealing with it just fine. You are the one to whom the concept is lost on.

There is nothing "wrong" with being a streetwalker.
There is nothing "wrong" with being a hooker.
There is nothing "wrong" with being an escort.
There is nothing "wrong" with being a "courtesan".

All of the above essentially perform the same basic duties. The differences lie in how business is conducted, the interactions before, during, and after, and the desires and intent of both the gentleman and lady.

Anyone in any of the categories can make the conscious choice to engage in other segments of the adult industry-- even the most "issue" riddled streetwalker can clean up her life, clean up her looks, and become a high class escort-- I've seen it happen. It's all about personal drives and desires. There is no judgment from me in regards to any woman in this industry-- we all make our choices.

I guess that depends on what you mean by "better". Morally, probably not. As it relates to services, some are absolutely better than others.

No prostitute better than others? I agree that we are all trying to make money in the same business but...

If you were a man, would you feel safer picking up a streetwalker and taking her to an hourly no-tell in a bad neighborhood? Or would you feel safer calling up a $250-$400/hr escort and meeting her in a nice hotel or apartment?

This is why there are "levels" in the first place. It isn't to pit women against each other..although that happens entirely too often. It is to help the men select their own risk and service level. A man with common sense knows not to expect the same level of treatment and service from a $20 streetwalker as a $400 escort. That's just common sense.
