Just as odd as it is for people to go out and pay for something that they can find elsewhere...FOR FREE!!! Imagine that...you don't actually HAVE to pay for it. What a novel concept...huh?

How's that working out for you so far?  Any takers yet or is your "unique" outlook on life still sending everyone heading off in the other direction?

Those are extremely low rates, for all of the above.  But by the sounds of it, it's a bit of a joke anyways, so fuck it.

Re-read your last post while engaging the 2 axons and single dendrite you apparently possess, and you can probably figure it out.

Bottom line...if you wanna play, it's gonna COST you something...

Your time, your devotion, your allegiance, your skills, your facilities, your heart, soul and spirit.
Or for those of you who don't really want to, or can't make such of an investment because you're owned by someone else (ie. married)...

...your money.

NO ONE, I repeat NO ONE does this for free. NO ONE does this "out of the goodness of her heart". It will COST you something, otherwise, there's nothing in it for us.

Actually, what I've decided to point out is that even in a relationship/friendship with play it's gonna cost you cash on top of any devotion or emotional attachment. Because no Dommes is gonna pay some lazy asses way to sit on Her couch just so that She can say She's got someone at home who adores Her.

Very true BoiJen, and point well taken. Basic survival would dictate that if one is dedicated to a meaningful relationship, then they need to contribute to the general coffer as well.

If one isn't interested in a meaningful relationship, then the LEAST they can do is cough up some cash for her time. Anything else is just completely insulting.

mikey, like I said, I don't pay for it, and don't charge for it. I *do* currently have a rather casual playpartner interaction with someone who isn't my girlfriend, but she *is* my friend. We hang out and do vanilla stuff together as well, she's intelligent and fun! You say you have a vanilla girlfriend, but does she know and approve of your BDSM activities and desires? My playpartner is married, and I'm in a relationship with my Master, so *all four* of us met up and talked things over before we did anything together. Lots of people engage in this without any money being exchanged, but not at Pro-Dommes' places of business! A friend of mine might help me with my car for free, even if he's a professional mechanic, but I'd still expect to pay if I went to an auto repair shop. If *you* can get it for free, and your girlfriend is fine with that, go for it! If she's not ok with it, you're a liar and a cheater. If you can't get it for free, whining about it won't make you more attractive to anyone.

It's well known that Hollywood celebrities (most famously Hugh Grant and Charlie Sheen) make regular use of escort services.  They aren't paying for sex.  They are paying for a lack of complications after sex.  These are men who can get sex anytime they want.  But lawsuits, stories sold to tabloids, etc., are a big hassle.  A prostitute does a job and leaves.

Many clients of escort services are financially successful and highly intelligent.  You may choose to criticize their morals, but calling them "fools" makes you look ignorant.

Beyond that, there's something else I'd like to say.  I have told only a few women in my life that I loved them.  One fled her house at a young age, afraid for her life, and became an escort for a while in order to survive on her own and get a stable apartment.  She had a different career by the time I met her, but I won't say which, because people who follow my posts might figure out a little too much.  The important thing is that I've loved a woman who at one time was a prostitute.  However, I have never allowed a cheap son of a bitch into my circle of friends.  Cheap is selfish, cheap is uncaring, and cheap is ugly.  I want it nowhere near me.



Some days I just end up liking you more and more Mr.Magic1.

boi

I might also add that these guys don't go and post complaints in the local newspaper that X restaurant is charging too much and should serve people for free either.

If a ProDomme is advertising on the internet, it's the same damned thing.

Is that the same line you use, when you are trying to explain why it's better to go to her house and have her cook for you, than take her out to a nice restaurant?

havent looked at this thread for awhile, and with excpet of a person bher and there, the advice being given is quite sound. to clear up the oral issue, i said it in an earlier post but maybe it got overlooked. i put a price on oral pleasure being done to me- but have i actually charged for it? nope. its a purely selfish reason for me lol. subs seem to delight in doing it, and like many people, i enjoy getting off that way. its a win win in my eyes. but many of you have given me food for thought. i'm still on the fence about raising prices because of the economy...i would not enjoy taking a buttload of cash from somebody for a session if i believed it meant that they wont be able to eat or pay bills for that month.not my thing. but above all, i thought my prices were more than reasonable and those who have come to see me tell me that for my skills, i am not getting enough but i ignore that- some subs say some pretty off the wall stuff lol while in their come-down space after a session. lo but thanks guys!

If I can interject as someone young and good-looking (sorry if that sounds arrogant but I can get back-up from people on the boards who've met me, if you want independent corroboration...) it's the sort of insult that isn't really worth getting upset about, on the grounds that he is so clearly wrong.

Don't get too het up on our behalf, Manners; by making a statement like that he's automatically removing himself from the group 'people whose opinions matter' and putting himself into the group 'people I'm not too fussed about'.

Corroborated. *Slobber* Mind you, perhaps you should be thinking about earning yourself £125 an hour as a pro-domme. (Blimey - Nice tickle, that!)

Doubtless with good cause - but did I just read a rude word from the pen of Mr Manners? I am *deeply* shocked.

Dear MsVaguely, I am not only upset on your behalf, but on mine. It is that sort of misogynistiacl post that gives the rest of us a bad name. Plus, you are a girly and need a knight in shining armour....lol

Peon my friend, as bad words go, that WAS politeness personified.

been in a situation recently that has got me wondering(not second guessing- just wondering)- are my rates for ProDomme sessions too high?  Don't know. i'm entering my 3rd year of the art of domination and for certain things, i charge a certain amount. feet- $75/hour (you charge $75.00 an hour for feet ????  I have feet...I don't charge anything for feet!!!!  What the hell do you do for "feet"????  What does that mean????), oral on me-$100  (I charge nothing for oral on me), strap on- $150/hour (I actually pay for that....life must be good), the list goes on, and for combinations (combination's) of things i combine the prices and take like 15 dollars off (I give a Starbucks coupon...but then again, I'm inordinately generous). keeping that in mind, a wanna-be client told me that i was charging way too much and he kind find prettier girls for less(that made me laugh to be honest)...at least you're honest, and tried to hound/pressure me (bastage) into dropping the price for strap on and to give me oral to 100 for both. so for those who have dabble(d) in ProDomme(ones who are pro and ones who have gone to a pro) what do you think? was he just trying to get his fantasy off for cheap or am i being to pricey?


I don't know what to think.  I actually stopped thinking in 2007.  It was far too cumbersome.

It should nt be for free. But $15 to $30 should be the range. And some pro s wonder why they cant get subs? Wake up and smell the coffee. We are living in a recession. Drop your rates and crawl out from under whatever rock you have been hiding for the past two years. Any dumbo would know that $75 in a recession is way too high. Reduce your fee and see your client and profit base rise

a bit agrro there hun. i've really never heard of $15 dollars for a foot worship session. and yes, i am more than aware of the current financial crisis, but in which case, people should cut back on things they don't need-aka foot sessions. that being the case, there are plenty of wonderful lifestyle dommes out there. I am not the end-all, be all of FemDommes, so they can easily go to somebody eles. I have a nice amount of subs, i dont need anymore in order to live. and they oinly mention the price when they want to see me more often. so honestly, while i respect your opinion, i disagree with the dumbo remark. name calling isnt nessecary here.
