For future reference, should a lady be involved with a situation where she is forced to defend herself, how should she address it so that her defense would be an acceptable one?
I deal with each situation is dealt with on a case by case basis. I can't answer to any situation that might come up in the future, I only do the best I can to determine who is making the most sense, who is the most credible, and what actions are acceptable to me, and which ones aren't.
The reason I'm very against bringing a third party into the room to resolve a dispute, is because frightened people can be extremely dangerous. How is a provider to know if a client is armed or not? If you bring a man into the room to fight with the client, someone (the provider and/or her friend) might get a bullet in the ass, from the terrified client. It HAS happened before.
Or it could easily escalate into a physical altercation, where the client is hurt and the provider goes to jail for a long time. This has also happened before, many times.
Fortunately, this situation had neither ending.... but that doesn't mean that having another man come in to fight your fight is a good idea. It just might not turn out so nicely as this, and I don't want to see ANY provider hurt or in jail over something that really wasn't even worth it to her. I've been there, btw.... I'm speaking from experience.
The best way to handle this specific situation is to be aware and alert AT THE BEGINNING of the session. Collect and count your fee up front, put it away, look around for recording devices and ask that they be put away, etc.
Figuring out he was recording you
after the session is over, or shorted you, or whatever... AFTER??? Why not take care of these things at the beginning, so you don't have to have an altercation after?
Defend yourself by using your brain, first and foremost. Intimidation and force should be a last resort only, and only in situations where it would be worth it if things took a turn for the worse, once the third person was brought into the situation.
Always,
