Post what you are comfortable posting. however, negative reviews & extremely positive reviews are not helpful without some explanation as to why. Dance around it if you must, but some inkling is needed by others because different people like & dislike different things. Thus what is great or bad to you might be the opposite or irrelevent to someone else. The real role of reviews is to connect the right fellows with the right ladies, not to be a popularity contest or a slagging match.
Excellent description, it mirrors my feelings... I wish everyone felt that way but in reality, everyone motivations for reviewing are different. A lot of it IS fluffed up and exaggerated for entertainment value or to re-create some porn scene. And honestly, there's a lot of it that is just juvenile bragging. Then there are the girls who, win the review lottery and become 'THE' SP to review, and for months, there seems to be this hype and everyone wants to be part of the fraternity. While I have no doubt the reviews and accolades are fully deserved- the reviews, in reality obviously become redundant, and of little value to anyone else than the reviewers ego. After a few reviews have been written about lady, there is so much 'new' information anyone can provide, really.
I guess it all depends what your motivations are for writing reviews, and I would think that what motivates you is also what you look for in the reviews you read. If you get into the Penthouse style reviews and that's the kind of review that gets you pumped up about seeing an sp, then I would think this is the kind of review you would enjoy writing. I dunno. But I personally dislike graphic reviews and don't feel they are necessary, on top of being about the reviewers ego more than anything else. Some of the entertaining reviews can be fun to read, I agree, but more because of the reviewers storytelling and writing talent than because of the amount of details and descriptions that can be included in a review. I think it's far better to leave some things to the imagination.
Just a couple anecdotes:
Most of the reviews that have been written about me are not graphic or overly descriptive, which is great. Especially because the first couple of reviews of me when I first started, were pretty graphic and play-by-play accounts of the appointment. For one, it is the oddest thing to read reviews like that ABOUT YOURSELF, personally it was a mix of embarassed and OMG-shocked. lol And at the same time telling myself I should be happy, this is a good thing, a positive review is what I want.....right? Sure, but I really didn't like it. And I find those really graphic reviews attract the weirdos a hell of a lot more than the tame and discreet reviews do.
Shortly after my very first review, half way through an appointment with a new guy, I realized he was basically re-creating what he'd read in that review. It was odd. It was creepy and not fun. I never had that problem again with the non-graphic reviews that followed.
Only once since then has someone written a very graphic review of me, and it was probably even more graphic than the others had been. Honestly, after reading it once, I was in shock, it was so detailed and OMG for me to read! Honestly, it was written like a hardcore porn scene, and while some of the details were real, they were certainly enhanced for entertainment or effect, but what I really couldn't figure out, was all the things that were completely fictional and had never happened. The appointment had just taken place 1 or 2 nights prior, so it wasn't a case of mixing up details or memory. I read the review over a couple more times and was still in a confused panic, so I emailed the reviewer and asked him nicely if a few of the details could be removed. I told him I was worried it would create some bad situations for me and of who might book as a result. I also commented on my confusion about the details he added, that were in fact made up and had never happened at all. He never answered this question, but did agree to not only remove some of the graphic details, but he ended up removing the review altogether. I felt bad about it (for him), but I was so relieved. Maybe it's just me, but I don't like reading it and I'm not comfortable with it. That's just me personally, maybe some girls don't care either way.
After that, I don't think I've trusted what I read in really hyped up reviews or those porn-style reviews. Some people truly only view reviews as a way to entertain themselves and others.... Unfortunately, it's at the SP's expense because I doubt you can find many (if any) sp's who will tell you that a review like that has done much for them. Well, not for me anyway..lol
Simple reason is I have read so much on this site in the past month and I have no idea how the fantastic SPs feel about some of the intimate details that are written about their sessions.
