Zoe, I like the posts you make as you are educated in your responses, but there is also a lack of respect for the clients, and danger for them as well. We are walking into a strange situation as much as you are having one knock on your door.Honestly, I think this is the beginning of the end and a lot of the good local SPs are going to be gone. Some may stick around but this rate craziness (instability - prices ranging from $40 to $400) and that most people don't read the boards, there seems to be a lot of negotiators going around and way more requests for bbfs. The business is not what it used to be. There seems to be a complete lack of respect for ladies rates and services.
King_kong - the ads are not going to become more explicit, that is exactly what bill c-36 says not to do.
Bill c-36 is making it hard for the ones who actually want to follow the law. The ones who don't care are coming across as more upfront whereas the ones who don't want to get in trouble are being more evasive about questions about service etc. I feel that it actually is giving rise to ladies working in exploitative conditions. If you don't care about the law in general (have a pimp, do drugs, rip-offs, carcalls) why would you listen to bill c-36?
what wash meant by smoking and drinking is that the government taxes these thing now they will fine me for being a client in this industry . ll these thing raise money for the government . this is just an other way of the government raising funds to fix are roads like traffic tickets . but in the end it is all about cost . and it could be that it is better to go ells were like navada to conduct this kind of exchange were it is legal c 35 wins . this is the cause of falling prices you would have to take some risk and give clients more securityI would think the SP is always taking the larger risk no matter what is said in the ad, especially in an incall situation, this is why SPs ask for references, no blocked numbers etc.
The point of the bill is irrelevant, what is important is what it outlines as legal and illegal, such as explicitly advertising sexual services.
I really don't understand what you meant by the smoking/drinking thing and sharing with the government.
Last sentence - see my first sentence. The incall, independent SP IS taking the larger risk, also the overhead in keeping an incall.
Just out of curiosity, do these touring girls have some guys watch them like guards.... I have seen some touring girls who didn't ask references, what if they meet someone crazy or rude?I would think the SP is always taking the larger risk no matter what is said in the ad, especially in an incall situation, this is why SPs ask for references, no blocked numbers etc.

Very well said.I think the reason this topic seems to come around over and over is because it is a response to the market conditions. Well established SP's with good reputations can set the rates they want and guys will pay it because it is good value for money. When the visiting Asians first really started coming a few years ago, again they had higher rates and we were happy to pay them because there was a total lack of Asians in Winnipeg.
What ends up happening is that new girls enter the scene and expect and charge the higher rates while being unknowns and often offering sub par or poor service and these posts are a reflection of what becomes a growing frustration of what we get for what we pay. The reality is the ladies can charge as much as they want, but it is no different than any other business, you price yourself too high and the majority will simply choose to shop elsewhere or not buy at all. I would think that the ladies who do read these posting take a bit of a hint that when we start grumbling about the prices then maybe you have edged up on the price to high or that the level of service being offered does not meet what is being asked.
This topic has little to do with respecting the ladies, or if brought up a sign of disrespect. Ladies set your price, it is your choice and right but do not expect everyone to be happy to pay it. Guys, find the girls at the price your willing to pay, but remember when you bargain shop you also can't complain when the 80 dollar girl turns out to be a dud.
Some obviously take their chances, and I have never asked a girl about what they do in those circumstances. Now I am sure I have seen someone in the lobby, or seen a girl send a message in a certain time period, but since I have never had anything bad on my mind, I have only looked to make sure I don't get mugged.Just out of curiosity, do these touring girls have some guys watch them like guards....

Now I only tend to see touring girls, like those Quebec girls, they usually do incalls in nice hotels, and I did research their reviews before I book. Although they charge more but I can assure there will be no drama.Some obviously take their chances, and I have never asked a girl about what they do in those circumstances.

Now I am not one who is afraid of a scuffle so I do play safe, but am not paranoid about it.
Most of the touring girls I have seen are friends with others I have seen, so I can always mention names and situations that have satisfied all to date.
In Montreal, they make 150 an hour. I can confirm this from being there last summer. Same girls in most cases, from services there. That is outcall pricing in some cases.Now I only tend to see touring girls, like those Quebec girls, they usually do incalls in nice hotels, and I did research their reviews before I book.

BTW, can anyone explain why they are usually from Quebec...?
Extremely good point.While part of me agrees that this subject has been discussed to death, I can't smile a little at the hypocrisy shown on this site when discussing rates.
We, and this includes the SP's on this site, seem to feel that other professions are fair game to criticize for what they charge. Over the years I've been on PERB I've seen numerous threads where someone comments on the fees they paid to a lawyer, plumber, accountant, mechanic, vet, etc. and everyone jumps on the bandwagon with comments ranging from, "the fees are too high" to "they are a bunch of money hungry assholes."
But as soon as someone questions SP rates everyone (including all the SP's on this board) gets all high and mighty about "Who are you to question the rates?" and "If you can't pay then don't play."
Just an observation.
How do you know I don't go to the gym? lol I have always been a big girl, all my life. But that's not my main point.... (but if I was a spinner, does that mean I should charge $350/hr? There are all sorts of people that like all sorts of girls, variety is the spice of life)Yet all those girls from Montreal have nothing magical that local girls do not.
How many local girls go to a gym and train properly? One? Two? What is stopping them?
Nobody wants to pay for something when they can get better at the Pal for next to nothing.
Where are the locals who look like Lara Croft, VJ or Keissy Hennesy?
We see these touring ladies coming back again and again, obviously flourishing.
Yet the same market does not support the development of local talent?
That is the conundrum we face.
You are a smart girl Zoe but there's some really bad and wrong generalisations there.
I know two gorgeous locals who train to keep up their appearance. I spend enough time at the gym (U of M and city leisure centre) to know whether some is training or just taking up space. If you are happy in your niche then good for you.
Look what Holly Rae did. She was already popular and well reviewed here. But she kicked it up a notch, got into good shape, got good pics and a good website. For her, "good enough" was no longer good enough, she wanted to be as good as she could be. Major props to her.
Don't sit around whining about Winnipeg guys being cheap. They pay for top level service when it is available. Be like Holly and be the best you can be.
Does anyone know of ANYONE that has been busted? Anyone?what i find most interesting is that . people do not think that the new law affect the price . I think they affect the price and demand . and that has what changed recently do you think that an sp charging $ 200 before the change in the law is worth $ 200 today ?
seem to me the risk to the client has gone up . so less clients leading to lower prices .
Exactly. Yes, variety is the spice of life, but I would say that society has dictated what is considered more attractive, not the guys on here. We want what we were raised on.WW makes a very good point.:thumb:
While I've always said that men's tastes in women vary, I've also been very upfront that most of us, if we're paying for it, want something beyond what we can get for free at the Norwood or Pal.
I was just on BP to check this out. I looked at all the ads for the past 48 hours.
If you break it down between the touring ladies (including the Asian agencies) and the locals, based solely on looks/the pics, here's how I would break it down.
Assuming the pics are accurate I would pay to see ~80% of the touring ladies and ~20% of the locals.
I can accept the fact a woman over 35, especially if she's had kids, may not be as tight as she once was but just like Holly did, you can get yourself in reasonable shape. And WTF is with all the flabby 18 - 25 year olds?
One would think that if you are serious about this job and it to a large part depended on the dude looking at the ads finding you more attractive than your competition, you might put in a few hours in the gym.
Cheers
What are the bad/wrong generalizations? The idea that you may get more than you bargain for from picking up somebody at a bar?You are a smart girl Zoe but there's some really bad and wrong generalisations there.
