It may be irrelevant to you. That doesn't mean it's irrelevant to everyone.
Whether or not they are attracted to the client is quite irrelevant. They're attracted to the money, after all.
No Black men on escort ads.
I just recently put no African American on my ads because of the high volume of phone calls I was getting. When I asked them for references from other well reviewed providers they had none. Because of the scary situation here in Birmingham most providers aren't willing to take a chance unless someone can vouch for them. I had one guy yell at me why did he have to give me a reference? He's not applying for a job! I just told him to call someone else and hung up. Since there isn't a very good description of the guy who's robbing the providers or even his phone number to beware of. Just not seeing anyone from that guys race is all we can do to stay safe. After getting brutally beaten during a robbery, once is enough for me.
That Absolutely Makes No Sense To Me!

But, is this what this forum has really been reduced to? Discussing race issues? I thought we were here to share our experiences about the hobby of mongering. Now, I do have an opinion on the issue, but I don't care to share it, becuase if we dig deep enough down, we are all in the same situation. I must say though, if you think black guys are the only one's who yell, steal, and beat, then there is something terribly wrong with your terminology! Although, that may have just been your experiences.
Just My 1 cent.
Hefty
We all deserve as much protection as we can get in a dangerous situation!
[QUOTE=Jasmine Smith;1144766]It may not make sense to you, but if you were ever in a situation where you could have been killed then you are not going to take a chance. If it was a white guy doing these things then I would be cautious with white clients too. I have nothing against black people I have quite a few black friends and some of my long time clients are black men. I just won't be accepting any new ones until that one guy gets caught or he decides to go terrorize escorts in a different state. The reason I mentioned my phone conversation is Why should I accept someone who doesn't want to provide a reference. I'm not asking him for his private information like his work or any thing like that. I just wanted another provider to confirm that he was okay. I really don't think that's too much to ask for.[/QUOTE]Of course you make perfect sense Jasmine! I feel that you have the right not to meet someone simply because the sun didn't shine that day! ? Strange responses from some as if you MUST serve them?
