You don't know what your missing
I am a white southern boy. I had kinfolk shooting at the Yankees in the civil war, and others shooting at the Redcoats in the revolution. My dad shot at Nazi's in WWII and I pulled my stint playing with the Soviet navy in the coldwar.
I'm 47; I grew up with all that racism shit and desegregation too.
The first time I found myself attracted to a black girl I was in highschool; I was pretty confused, but then I confused about all women. The first time I ever had sex with a black girl, she was with a provider; it was a fantasy wonderfully fulfilled.
Beautiful large soft lips that felt just right in the right places; she was simply a wonderful young lady. She had asked me if I'd ever been with a black girl before, so I spilled my tale of a highschooler's suppressed lust, lol. I swear I think that inspired her to make it that much better.
My own take (on the mongering side) is this: Isn't being adventurous and trying something (and someone) different, part of the attraction of the hobby?
Guys you can kind of lump together in masses, but women are almost each a separate species unto themselves whether black, tan, yellow, brown, or white it doesn't matter. Women are the heart of mystery and delight.
I now conclude my "Dr. Phill" moment ;) - and yes, I know he is a phoney - but that incoherency was from this monger's heart.
Well Jeez thank ya fellas
you make me blush lol. the question is when will i make you hot?
i recently wrote a article about the legalization of prostitution and the pro's. in this too it would affect supply and demand therefore affecting the rates. it would be less scam artists and **** girls if business licenses were required. the low end will never go away but it would dissipate some. every city is different. some cities i only use eros. some i use many sites. i find the median between high end and low rates usually works the best. in orlando when you run your rates really really low you bring in a different kind of clientele as well. the man's whole attitute can change and there is less of a respect level. as well as in orlando when you deal with some men off eros, the arrogance and obnoxiousness is disgusting. i have had some of the most unsavory, racist and crappy men off eros. i have learned to bite my tounge i have had men tell me that they won't even see a girl that is offering rates on the low end and i have had wonderful men who have been with me a long time that needed an adjustment to fit into their budget during the economic crisis. sometimes it's just a roll of the dice.
[quote=worldsoffun]lol. i guess you missed the jimmy carter years. 15% mortgages and 12% unemployment. but as with any economic condition, supply and demand ebbs and flows. at this point in the demand curve, prices should and will fall. there is far more supply than what the average monger is willing to pay for. the laws of supply and demand dictate that prices must fall. most mongers don't have the same disposable income they had a year ago. i am getting $/hour quality deals. i know this upsets some providers, but you can't fight economics. if we pay more, it destroys the delicate balance of ecosystem in central florida. i will pay $$/hr for the very rare exception, but it will be the rare exception. the quality is not suffering, but more to contrary, the quality is improving exponentially.
and yes, the goddess is hot.

Not a lady, but here's my opinion
[QUOTE=Warpfactor69]I've already received one answer via PM (thanks for the reply), so this is going out to the other ladies:
I've noticed that some ladies have lowered their prices on 15 min and 30 min, but not for an hour.
Why are most escorts still asking for their original full price for an hour of their time?[/QUOTE]From a theoretical economics perspective, there is actually a pretty good rationale for this pricing structure.
Let's assume a provider was previously at 250 and 150. There is a range of prices that mongers can afford. When times get tight, those that have been affected the most may no longer be able to afford this provider at those rates. So, by dropping her HH rate may still allow the provider to keep some of those clients that would otherwise disappear.
At the higher end, guys who otherwise might have gone for the full hour may still choose to see the provider if they cannot afford the higher rate, but can choose to save money by going for a 30 minute session. The provider loses something, but still has some income. If the provider drops the full hour rate, then she will keep some of these clients at the full hour rate rather than at the lower 30 minute rate. However, this could be very costly. The number of guys that can afford 200 but not 250 is probably pretty low. Most that can afford 200 probably can still afford 250. So, if the provider drops the hour rate to 200, then she loses 50 on every one of her hour clients.
Here is a hypothetical example. I'm going to keep the math easy and ignore the customers who previously were at 30 minutes for this example. Let's assume that the provider normally sees 10 clients a week for a full hour. Let's now assume that, due to the economy, 4 of her hourly clients cannot afford that any longer. 2 of them have to drop the hobby completely and the other 2 can afford something less expensive.
Prior to the recession, she earned 2500 weekly from these clients. Let's assume that she drops her HH rate to 125 and her hourly rate to 200. This allows her to keep all of her hourly customers that are still in the hobby. She now earns 8*200 for a total of 1600 weekly.
If she drops only here 30 minute rate, then 2 of her clients will opt for the half and the other 6 that are still in the hobby will remain at the full hour. Now she earns 6*250 plus 2*125 for a total of 1750 weekly.
This example shows that by dropping the top rate, she actually loses money even though she gets more full hour clients. The trick is that it is hard for her to drop the rate only for those that cannot afford 250. Some get around this by running periodic specials. So, for most of the time, they still get their full amount, but then pick up some extra lower cost business during specials.
I know that this is purely theoretical, and I certainly don't think that most providers are going through it in this level of detail. But, I think that they intuitively understand their market and make pricing decisions that maximize their income.
I
Agree about getting extra quickie customers
[QUOTE=Clinton Bush]You should be working for the government to get the economy going again! In your example above by dropping her low rate from 150 to 125 she might also pick up a couple new clients to replace the 2 who left the hobby so maybe she can add another 2 x 125 or 250 to her 1750 for a total of 2000. If she is willing to do a few 75 or 100 quickies she might even be able to get back to her 2500 pre-recession earnings. We all have to work a little harder in this economy to make money.[/QUOTE]I think your are 100% correct.
In economics, there is a concept called Demand Elasticity. When demand is inelastic, it means that changes in price don't affect demand much. When demand is elastic, it means that changes in price do affect demand considerably. My theory is that, at the low end of the price range, escort demand is elastic. There are hobbyists that will pay 100, but not 150 or who will pay 50 but not 100. This is why there is always demand at the street level.
On the other hand, I think that demand is more inelastic at the higher price levels. Most guys that are willing to spend 200 will still spend 250 for good service. Probably jjust about anyone that is willing to spend 300 will go to 350 for the right escort.
So, at the low end of the price range, providers make more money with lower rates, at least to a point. But, at the higher price levels, they may do better by keeping their rates where they have been.
I still think, however, that the best overall strategy may be to keep the rates high at most time, but also to offer occasional specials for repeat clients to ensure that they do not defect. I, of course, make this suggestion completely objectively and without regard to the effect that those occasional specials might have on my own wallet
You know, someone out there who is earning a masters degree in econmics should do a thesis on this. Think of how much fun the research would be!
Something smells fishy about her....
[QUOTE=Haldol05]SO this girl is posting on backpage and CL #407-209-4226, cant find any info or research turns up nothin'. I'd come off 250, even in this economy for greek, lol, emails were not returned from her.
Any help is appreciated.[/QUOTE]
"blonde.jpg" is using the phone #4074705+85+0 and something about the ad strikes some similarity to the other number you posted...can't quite put my finger in it (and don't think I want to) but something smells extremely fishy about the ads using those 2 #'s.
