How important is an SP's academic background to you?

You get 50 year olds advertising as 35.
27 year old advertising as 19.
Takes the same effort to write in "highly educated"
Don't believe everything you read

Educational level means little as a measure of character or charisma.

My father was a respected scientist, did peer review for a couple of journals, and was on a board. He was a total jerk.
My brother and sister both have MBA's and assorted other credentials. They are both really great people and have nice families.
I have two degrees and am a family embarrassment.

As to escorts advertising advanced degrees, it is a turn off because I immediately think "bullshit" .
Credential inflation is huge problem, so common that many job applicants don't even see it as wrong.

I'm actually impressed with that. Simple because every MBA I know are all jerks that I could happily throat punch.

Now that you say it, it does the same thing for me. Didn't realize it till you mentioned it. I think it's because I'm part of the hiring process at work currently and have had some questionable interviewee with higher academic credentials. It probably doesn't matter so much with escorts but my brain is wired right now to to react semi negatively when I see words like "double honour masters."

Well if they paid to see you then sure yeah maybe they were paying for your company.
But I suspect it was you paying to see them and it wasn't your *ahem* that they accepted as payment.

I never said education is a measure of intelligence. All I said was intelligence is important to me, regardless of whether it's an hour or 24 hours. I do know though that if someone has a certain education level, they are likely to be more intelligent than a crack whore from Whalley.
Crack whores never make it onto my to do list.

But no matter the education level for the hour I'm there I'd prefer it if she we're doing something else with her mouth besides talking.

right here and now
Couldn't give a rat's ass- couldn't give a fuck.
If when we meet she can carry on an intelligent conversation or offer insight to a common pursuit or somehow contribute to a meaningful interaction then a successful synergy has been achieved.
Academics are not necessarily indicative of what anyone particularly has to offer. More than one high school drop-out has rocked my world sexually- and isn't that what we are really looking for here?

With dating or SP's -If I find a woman attractive/intelligent/interesting/stimulating, it has little to do with her certifications.
Diploma holders are not immune to being boring / inept or outright stunned socially and/or intimately.

I am a big believer in the cliche that the biggest sex organ is between the ears. But having an education or being educated has little to do with degrees, in my opinion, and has more to do with curiosity and an eagerness to learn. People with those qualities usually make for better conversationalists and listeners, which are key to calming those "pre-game jitters" and for making that post-coital glow last a little longer.

I would say an open mind is more essential than any accreditation an institution can hand out.

Look at it this way: there are 1000s of fetishes that we'll find peculiar but have an appeal to others. You may not get it, but just consider this one of them.

You're a smart man...I like that about you. I like the fabulous sex just as much as the wonderful conversations before & after (though there usually isn't much conversation DURING, is there?)...I agree that intellect & open-mindedness count for more than edumacation (sic!) or qualifications!

Intimacy with stupidity...doesn't work for me. Commercial sex with stupidity...that works.

Mostly it's just me repeating, like a mantra, "Damn, you're sexy," or, "Goddamn, that feels so good" .... :eyebrows:
