JJ, thank you for your comment and insight!! And, thanks to everyone for your comments and opinions. There's been some national discussions on this topic...and, I was just curious as to what the local hobbyists/providers thoughts were. Very informative and interesting.
Mature providers are often a great source of fun and should command equal wages. However, as some get a little long in the tooth they can be a little mean and lack certain attributes that they may have had in earlier times. One skill that seems to go early is their TCB. They seem to get an attitude or dare I say a little bitchy. Maybe its a bit of the queen bee syndrome. But I have found that they can be a little diffulcult to deal with.
Redleg42, I've been very respectful to you...even in my response to a distorted thread you posted last year...in an honest PM reply to you today, when you sent a me a nasty pm. You sir, have taken my kindness for a weakness. I will tell you publicly....I've had about enough of your stalking harrassment!
I've been very fortunate to have met truly wonderful men in the hobby. These are men who know how to bring out the BEST in a woman. Then, there are the the few who resort to childish tactics to try to demean us. Then, you wonder why we get bitchy? (lol)
