[QUOTE=Jannisary;6412217]I'm not sure about that. I think it is more about available options than not being able to work around each other. If you think back to the good old days of Brooklyn IL and the massage parlors they had back then that were non-asian. I'm sure there was probably some cattiness behind the scenes but the parlors operated quite well.[/QUOTE]I think at some or most points, gals finally realize (when they are good) they can do this on their own. When you look at Eden, lilia and many many many others. They all either once worked together or for groups. I think they each finally realized, "hey, I can do this myself, control things better, on my own terms, choose my location / even change it at will, and have less grief. " With AMPs, there are sometimes language barriers and perhaps more loyalties behind the scenes to owners or situations (visiting USA etc temporarily etc).
