Defining Your Limits
You
need to be in control at all times. Simultaneously you'll want to
give an air of being relaxed and easy going to not seem rigid, demanding,
and controlling. The reasons you want to be in control are many and
include:
• give the client the knowledge that you are a comfortable,
relaxed professional. If a client asks you a question about what you
will or won't do and you have to think before you can answer they
know you aren't skilled in your field.
• be comfortable and confident with the answers you give a client.
If a client asks what your limits are and you quickly answer without
having made the decision with forethought, you may later regret the
answer you gave but have to live with the consequences.
• know inside that you are doing what you want so that you can
be emotionally calm and comfortable with yourself.
Decisions you need to carefully think through and do research before
you reach conclusions on include:
• what price are you going to charge?
• what geographic area do you cover?
• do you offer IN calls (where the client comes to your location)?
do you offer OUT calls (where you go to the client)?
• are you willing to negotiate on things like your price, your
geographic area, etc?
• will you have bareback sex (no condoms)?
• do you top? bottom? exactly how comfortable are you with each--be
honest--that's one that will show!
• will you rim (lick your partners anus)?
• will you engage in fetishes? If so, what ones will you and
won't you?
• can you offer massage?
• can clients tale a snapshot of you?
• how comfortable are you with things like poppers and marijuana?
With cocaine?
• are you able to travel? If so, what are your limits on geography
(do you have a passport?) and time (both lead planning time and amount
of time away from home)?
Never let desire for money make you bend your decisions. You will
regret it. Eros Rising has heard countless stories of such from escorts,
all ending with regrets. Your chosen weighed out decisions and your
intuition as to what is best should be your guides. Money is important
but should never factor in to your decisions that can affect your
health, safety, or emotional well being.
Most of the issues mentioned above are discussed in these pages. Often
times the discussion does heavily include the opinions and beliefs
of Eros Rising. You certainly have the right to hold different opinions,
but since this is our web site we have exerted the right to express
ours here. That doesn't mean we won't treat you with full respect:
many of our clients are known to hold widely different views than
us on some of these issues and express them on their web sites that
we host!
Realistic Expectations
Everyone knows there is a lot of money in the field of escorting.
Everyone has heard stories about escorts who make hundreds of thousands--no,
millions. And most of those stories are true. But lets look
at reality as it relates to you. First, escorting is the one career
where women earn more than men. A female escort can command a much
higher price than a male escort can. This is due to simple supply
and demand: the demand for female escorts is much higher because it
isn't as easy for a straight guy to get sex as it is for a gay guy.
If an average gay man were to walk into a busy bar and yell 'I'm horny,
who wants to come back to my place and fuck?' chances are he'd have
somebody within a few minutes. If an average straight man were to
walk into a busy bar and yell 'I'm horny, who wants to come back to
my place and fuck?' he'd have several drinks thrown in his face instantly,
not to mention the bouncer showing him the door. It's easier for gay
men to get sex, so demand for the gay escort is lower and of less
value.
But that doesn't mean there aren't gay escorts pulling down healthy
six-figure incomes. However they are generally guys who have been
in the business for at least a year or two, started when they were
between 18 and 22 (prime years for escorts), and have almost unrealistically
fantastic bodies, generally with very attractive faces.
This doesn't mean you can't make a nice comfortable living as an escort.
But be realistic about it: don't expect to be making a living income
off of escorting within the first six months. And don't expect it
to make you a millionaire. Both can happen, but there are more escorts
who don't reach it than those who do.
Make solid goals about what you want to achieve, expect to be successful,
but be realistic in what you expect from escorting as you do so.
