Do images such as these suggest "management"?

It's a vibe I've gotten over the years: Images such as the ones below in an ad suggest "management" to me.

I'm not suggesting that a girl can't do on her own what I just did -- find an image in a BP ad, right-click, save, and upload to her ad. Like I said, it's just a vibe I get that if I went to see her, there's a pretty good chance that she's working for someone besides herself.

Does anyone else get that vibe? Does the presence of such an image influence your decision?

As I have said several times before, ECCIE is very Dallas-centric, and the Dallas guys who dominate ECCIE can testify to many bad experiences (and more than a few good ones, as well) from BP, usually the BP escort ads.

OTOH, for a long time, if you knew what to look for and did some research, the BP bodyrub ads in Fort Worth were a gold mine. Not so much since June, but you'll still find Energy Works, Emmy, Jewls, Selena, Jenny, Kimberly J, and a lot of others there. Lily in west Fort Worth is one of the exceptions among BP escorts, BTW.

The question was not whether BP suggests management -- as I have tried to indicate, that's not necessarily the case -- it was more along the lines of whether the presence of such images in ads might be one criterion to help you separate the wheat from the chaff.

Not necessarily management, but it definitely suggests a lack of maturity in my book. These, or the ASCII characters in the title of the ad, or the heavy use of glitter graphics.

those ads SCREAM management to me.. that's my impression, though I realize it's not necessarily so.. nor do I necessarily discount the idea of a session because of that.. I go with all the evidence I have.. the last 2 BP Providers I have seen have ads like that, with no sign of management that I could see.

Lance, my take is mgmt or young and dumb. Buyer beware.
Those graphics scream unoriginal.
Those scream immaturity to me.

Outdated graphic strategy. Reminds me of animated gifs, Altavista, Netscape, dial-up modems, I could go on ...

Wait, just 2 more.

The first sign always says they have no idea how the law works. They can say money for companionship but it won't help in court. the.others strike me as young providers who saw it in ,another ad and decided to copy it. Don't see why any of those signs would imply management.

Maybe "mis-management"

Yes, immature, likely pimped out, just like the ones posting pictures with money on or around them in the photo.
