I'm not trying to start a flame war, or even to dis' the guys who like micros and / or AMPs. I like young SPs, be they at a micro or massage joint, or escort service, or an independent. I also like asian girls, but I like caucasian and other ethnicities as well. I just plain like the female gender.
Now, is there any truth to LL's claims about slave labor and the girls being trapped into working to pay off their fee for being brought here? Gotta be. It can't be any different than the sweatshops or other low paying labor we here of these migrants being forced to perform. I am personally familiar with one micro run by a papasan with underworld ties, but his girls were Canadian born asian. However, if I wanted to use the service I made sure I was early in the day - who needs to be the 5th to 10th guy that day? Did the quality of service suffer over time? Yup, you bet. The girls got just plain worn out, but for them it seemed it was more about the money than many of the high priced SPs I've seen. They were there voluntarily sure enough, but in body only, after seeing multiples of the types of guys in this thread who were only concerned about getting their rocks off.
I like having my jollies as much as any guy, but - and maybe this comes with advancing years and/or experience - I enjoy the company of an SP who is a little more selective in the type of clientel she serves and / or the numbers of clientel she is willing to see in one day. I enjoy having the company of someone who can converse at some level of intelligence, someone who "engages" at a level other than just the sexual. So, am I willing to pay a premium for that? Yup, guess I am....
It's interesting to me that LL speaks of being "unique" in looks, so she has nothing to worry about when it comes to competition from the types of establishments discussed here; she didn't say anything about her service or care for her clients. I've not seen LL, so in fairness I won't comment on whether her service is any better or worse than what I might receive for less money elsewhere, but I will repeat that the emphasis she places on the reason why she's not concerned is interesting.
It's also interesting that no other "high priced" SPs have commented in this thread. Perhaps that means they know they provide a service that many, like me, seek and so have little worry about being priced out of the market. Maybe they are afraid of receiving the kind of "heat" that LL has, but that hasn't stopped many of them in the past. Maybe they just don't care. Whatever, it would be interesting to conduct some kind of survey to see if any of them are "suffering" from the competition.
I guess that basically it all just boils down to different strokes for different folks. The high priced massage joints downtown (Cleo's, ST, PC - did I miss any?) don't seem to be going out of business any time soon. Obviously they fill a market need, and I don't think their clientel is exlusively highly paid athletes or tourists; I do know that because of the cost it doesn't include me.
Whether "cost for services over all..." comes down or not is a question that needs more data to answer, but if I were a betting man, my bet would be "NOT!"
just my $0.02
