From an escort's point of view

If a pooner decides to tip an SP, how much is considered proper?
This question came to me after a recent experience where I felt inclined to tip. After paying the rate and tip, I realized that I tipped less than 10%. Does that make me cheap? I honestly just wanted to leave a little something extra, but now I'm worried that I was insulting.
Any thoughts on the subject?

I believe that most independent ladies do not consider a client to be rude or cheap if leaves a small tip, or even no tip at all. The agreed upon hourly fee is the only amount of money an escort should ever be expecting - anything above and beyond that is purely a bonus.
If you do wish to tip, you need not worry about your tip being a certain percentage of the total donation. Escorts, unlike taxi drivers or wait staff, are not dependent on tips for the bulk of their income, so there is really no industry standard for tipping in this business (such as the 15% minimum we typically leave in restaurants).
A lot of clients who tip do so by simply rounding up the fee to the nearest $20, $50 or $100 (i.e. paying $300 instead of $280). Sometimes clients tip by bringing a small gift, such as flowers or chocolates.
In any case, the very best way you can endear yourself to an escort is to be clean, kind and respectful. That will always get you a lot more mileage in the long run.
