Lustpuppy, why don't you try contacting those ladies that you had sessions with that didn't go well and tell them that you are trying to find out why your session with them didn't go well and ask them to be brutally honest about it. There are so many things that affect sessions. You are not dealing with blow up dolls here or robots and neither are we. This is very much a "your mileage may vary" type of situation. Just because a lady has good reviews with others does not mean that you will always have a good session with her. And just because a guy does lots of good reviews on the boards, doesn't mean that he will be a good customer with us either. I do not know you. I do not know anything about you but let me give you some ideas of what things can turn a session bad or at least uncomfortable. Maybe there is something about you or that you are doing that you are not aware of that is making the sessions go wrong. Are you extremely nervous and uptight? If you can't relax and start a rapport with the lady, things won't go as well as hoped. Are you too aggressive/rough and you are hurting her or scaring her? Do you keep asking or pushing for things that are not on her menu? Are you not aware going into the session what the donation is and what she will and will not do? When somebody shows up for a session and doesn't know how much I charge or what is on the menu or keeps asking for things that I don't provide, it really makes me nervous and uncomfortable. These are things that you should make sure that you know before you show up for your appointment. Is there something physical about you that may make her uncomfortable: your weight, physical fitness level, scars, psoriasis, physical abilities, deformitites, etc. Are you on medication such as Viagra or do you have problems ejaculating or getting hard or staying hard? Those guys that can't cum or won't cum or hold off cumming for a long time are a problem and we can get frustrated when we get a guy like this. For guys that can't get hard or can't stay hard, we feel bad for you. Are you seeing ladies in your own age range? (Within 10 years either side of your age?) Hiring someone much younger or older than you are can be awkward and uncomfortable for us. Do you have the habit of resting your weight on her so that she has trouble breathing? That is really scary and something that most men do and aren't aware that it causes problems. Are you extremely tall and those ladies were very short? (Or vice versa.) Extreme height differences can sometimes be difficult to overcome. Are you hiring smoking hot babes? Sometimes you get better sessions from those ladies that aren't perfect 10's because they haven't already seen 50 guys that week and aren't suffering from hooker burnout. You say you shower before every session but are you properly cleaning yourself? (Men can be bad for this, just because you jumped in the shower doesn't necessarily mean that you have taken the time to properly clean your body.) How long since your last shower? Are you a smoker and you haven't brushed your teeth after you had your last cigarette or do you have stale coffee breath? Did you look at yourself in a mirror before you went in and combed your hair and made sure that you look presentable? Did you shave that morning? Is your beard and/or mustache neatly trimmed if you have them? I can't overstate the importance of good grooming. Are your clothes clean? Ragged cut-off shorts or showing up in big ole' dirty workboots, sweats and t-shirt don't make for good first impressions. Prepare yourself for a session the same way you would if you were going out on a date with somebody. Did you pay her before the session started so that she isn't worried during the session that you won't pay afterwards? Are you going into the session tired from a long day/week of work, are you smelling like booze because you just had a drink or two before you came over or are still suffering the effects of a late night or from drinking too much the night before? Are you going into the session with a bad attitude expecting the session to not go well because of past experiences? Whew. I just looked over what I just typed and rereading all of that, it seems pretty amazing that any sessions go well lol. But seriously, there are many things that can derail a session but 99.99% of the time if you go into a session with a good attitude, if you are well-groomed, clean, respectful, if you relax and are willing to joke around and have some fun, chat a bit at first, get to know her as a person instead of something to use as a "sperm receptical" and you will have a great time. Let me know if this helps you out and I'm curious what the rest of you guys think as well. Hugs & kisses! Sassy and Classy Carole ;)

Hotnuts, what would be the point of going around asking anyone and everyone besides Amber Moon what Amber Moon is going to do? Doesn't that sound like a waste of time to you? The only opinion that is going to count in this situation is going to be that of Amber Moon herself. Only she will decide who she will see and who she won't and he'll never find that out until he actually contacts Amber and asks her. But then that's just my opinion! ;) lol Hugs & kisses! Sassy and Classy Carole ;)

Hey, here's an idea! Contact the lady in question and ask her if she'll see you as a client. I really don't understand why you guys come on these boards and ask each other questions that only the lady in question can give a true answer to. If you actually ask her what you want to know, then you'll get a real answer instead of just somebody else's opinions and wild conjectures. I hope this helps! Hugs & kisses! Sassy and Classy Carole ;)

Hi Mya! I am so glad to finally have some wonderful spring weather! I've been out enjoying the sunshine over the last week, (well Sat. wasn't so nice lol.) It's so nice to see the green grass and the buds finally appearing on the trees and bushes! I can't wait until I can take my camera down to Prince's Island Park and get some photos of some goslings. It shouldn't be long now. Take care and stay safe! Hugs & kisses! Sassy and Classy Carole ;)

I've never heard of that forum but thanks for putting out a warning about it, Peternorth. Carole ;)

I came across this article and it is for Toronto but it raises some serious concerns that might apply to other areas across the country as well. There are some good questions to ask your VoIP provider at the bottom of the article to make sure you have access to 911 in an emergency. http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_9278.aspx Emergency Services Issues Public Safety Advisory For VoIP Users Thursday March 29, 2007 Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is rapidly emerging as a major form of telecommunication, but Toronto Police and Emergency Services workers are worried the popular service has one seriously dangerous flaw. On Thursday, Toronto Emergency Services issued a public safety alert to address the fact that many VoIP subscribers may not be aware of the product's technical limitations in accessing 911 during an emergency. VoIP's been offered in Toronto since 2004 and uses broadband Internet connections instead of traditional telephone lines. But without the routing of those landlines there's no way of ensuring that a 911 call will go to the correct response centre, or provide emergency workers with automatic address and telephone information, even if the caller can't speak. "If we're involved in trying to help the third-party call centre track you down we're going to lose that valuable time in a life-threatening emergency," said Toronto EMS worker David Ralph. "In a VoIP situation we definitely won't have that information and there could be some confusion as to where and what ambulance service should be contacted." These features, known as Enhanced 911, aren't guaranteed with VoIP services and are made difficult by the fact that Internet Protocol means the phone has no fixed address. And there's another issue: the power. In the event of an outage your computer and Internet won't work, while an old-fashioned phone most certainly will. "If you're using a traditional line it does not rely on hydro electricity to run and so you always have telecommunications," Ralph said. Here are some possible 911 limitations when using VoIP: The VoIP service operator may send a request for emergency service to the wrong 911 Centre or a non-emergency line causing a potential delay in response If a caller is unable to speak, or if the call is disconnected, the operator may not have automatic location information to give to 911 Call takers Access to 911 service for VoIP customers may not be available during a power failure or if the Internet connection is disrupted VoIP services do not have to enlist the use of a Language Line interpretation service as currently used by the Toronto 911 Centre. Obtaining answers to the following questions may help when choosing a VoIP provider: Will I be able to contact my Toronto 911 Centre without the use of a third-party operator? When dialing 911, will my phone number and address be readily displayed in the Toronto 911 Centre (Enhanced 911)? Ensuring direct and immediate public access to 911 is of great concern to Toronto's Police, Fire and Emergency Medical Services. Speak with potential service providers for a full description of their 911 limitations.

http://www.citynews.ca/news/news_10054.aspx (Photos of the two pimps is posted in the original article) Two Men Charged In Separate Alleged Incidents Of Young Teens Forced To Become Prostitutes Friday April 20, 2007 They're accused of the kind of crimes that infuriate both police and the general public. Two Toronto men have been charged in separate incidents involving young girls being lured into prostitution. Their alleged victims - two teenagers. Police claim the first suspect, a baby-faced looking man named Bobby Wilson (left), was introduced to his alleged 14-year-old victim through a friend and supposedly acted as her pimp and her teacher into the illicit world of the sex trade. They believe he instructed her on how much to charge, arranged for her "clients" and kept her supplied with a steady steam of drugs, ranging from coke and crack to Ecstasy. The 26-year-old Wilson is facing a slew of accusations, including procurement, living off the avails of prostitution and assault. The other case involves a man two years younger than the first suspect and a girl who's only 15. Cops contend Ottis Quashie Thompson (top right) met his alleged victim at a shopping mall and talked her into walking the streets. They accuse him of forcing her to work at specific times on specific corners and beating her up when she didn't come back with enough money. He's facing charges similar to Wilson. Cops are now wondering if either man has approached anyone else and allegedly schooled them on the shadowy profession. If you have information detectives should know, call them at (416) 808-7468. Thompson has a date before a judge on Monday, but White will be cooling his heels in jail for the next few days. He's not scheduled to make his first court appearance on the charges until Wednesday.

Boy, Mtang, that sounded like a sincere offer of help to me (not.) It sounds more like you were interested in becoming this poor girl's next pimp or you were looking for "freebies" in exchange for "helping" her out of the goodness of your heart. Bouncy, please keep us updated on what happens to this poor girl. It sounds like she could use a genuine friend or two to help her get her life straightened around. She does sound like a drug-addicted runaway though and I really hope that she can find someone to help her get the help she obviously needs. If this person on the other site isn't helping the way they should be, then I'm sure that Ottawa has programs similar to what Calgary has that helps young girls get away from street life and prostitution. Start by calling distress centres or drug centres and ask them for help or referrals on where she can go to get help. Please keep us updated.

B.C. prostitutes say sex co-op puts control over industry back in their hands Stephanie Levitz, Canadian Press VANCOUVER (CP) - The lonely girl in a pleather skirt and stilettos waiting vainly on the corner for a date isn't a typical image associated with a member of a business co-operative. Neither is the busty blond leering out from the E section of the telephone book. Group-owned and controlled by its members, co-ops are the traditional purview of credit unions, farmers and artists. But a coalition of prostitutes in Vancouver sees no reason why it can't join that list. Tired of unsafe working conditions, the B.C. Coalition of Experiential Women is exploring the idea of starting a sex workers co-operative, where the selling of sex and its accoutrements would be controlled not by the need to pay off drug debts or pimp fees but by the prostitutes themselves. "We want it to be above board," said Raven Bowen, one of two authors of Developing Capacity for Change, a report written to explore the concept and need for a sex trade co-op in Vancouver. "The whole idea is to pull the industry out from the shadows into a more, not public, but legitimate environment."

Happy St. Patrick's Day to all the Irish lads & lasses out there! P.S. Have fun drinking all of that green beer tonight! :p Hugs & kisses! Carole ;)

Interesting concept! Let me know when you add Calgary to your network!

I can vouch for Ciara and her website is legitimate and an excellent resouce for SPs! Carole ;)

I just saw a news story about a lady that had her golden retriever at a doggie day care and when she went to pick her dog up, the dog had scratches on it's nose and stomach. The owner was told that the dog got tangled up in branches at the park. Later the owner was anonymously contacted by someone that told her that she had seen her dog get hit and dragged by a car. The dog was immediately taken to the vet and has no internal injuries and will be fine. I just wanted people to be aware that this can happen.

I'm sure you are...he he

Well, Mod, while we are waiting for Ostinato to answer, why don't you chime in with how you would answer my queston? (You need to add an "evil little grin" smiley to this site!) lol Hugs and kisses! Carole ;)

I don't do greek and I'm not even from Winnipeg and I'm probably going to regret asking this lol but what makes it a good greek experience verses a bad greek experience from the man's perspective? Hugs and kisses! Carole ;)

Another documentary also on CBC Newsworld: http://www.cbc.ca/thelens/program_230107.html A SAFER SEX TRADE Tuesday January 23, 2007 & Saturday January 27, 2007 at 10pm ET/PT on CBC Newsworld "The sex trade is a valid career option today if managed properly", - Scarlett Lake, Vancouver madam Scarlett is a highly successful madam with 30 years under her belt in the sex trade business; Simone is a high-class sex worker who services wealthy clients in five Western Canadian cities; and Jennifer is a former drug addicted prostitute who now works tirelessly to offer support to sex trade workers on the streets. These women have had different experiences in the sex trade business, but they're united by one concern-the safety of women in their stigmatized industry. Jennifer exposes the ugly side of Vancouver's streets, where Canada's current laws have led to the increasing marginalization of street walkers and have made the women at the front lines of the notorious Downtown Eastside particularly vulnerable. It's a danger that made international headlines last year with the arrest of Robert Willie Pickton, charged with the murder of 26 women, many of them Vancouver sex trade workers. On the other side are high-priced sex workers like Simone, who are not at such risk. Their expensive services are advertised in the yellow pages as escort agencies, and are taxed and operated under tacit approval of the police. "The sex trade is a valid career option today if managed properly," says Scarlett, who now speaks publicly about her work as a madam and her belief that prostitution should be legalized. A Safer Sex Trade explores this double standard at work by putting faces to the women who represent both perspectives: life in the high rise and on the street. A Safer Sex Trade was produced and directed by Carolyn Allain and co-written with David Ray. The documentary is produced by Cheap and Dirty Productions Inc., in association with CBC Newsworld.

There is an interesting and eye-opening documentary on the sex trade in the Philippines. Seeing this might make some of you that do sex junkets to these poor countries to rethink your next sex vacation. This is a must-see show! It is on channel 15, CBC Newsworld - The Lens Saturday, January 20, 2007, 10:00 p.m. (This is airing a couple of times on Saturday so check your local tv listings) Selling Sex in Heaven Sex Tourism in the Philippines seen through a bar called Heaven - narrated by Kiefer Sutherland. http://www.cbc.ca/thelens/program_160107.html SELLING SEX IN HEAVEN Tuesday January 16, 2007 & Saturday January 20, 2007 at 10pm ET/PT on CBC Newsworld Mila works at Heaven, a little bar located in "blowjob alley", a notorious magnet for sex tourists in the Philippines. Like many young women forced into prostitution, Mila hopes that she'll be rescued from Heaven and taken to America for a better life. Narrated by actor Kiefer Sutherland, Selling Sex in Heaven is a heartbreaking documentary that examines the sex trade industry in the Philippines and how this nasty but lucrative business traps many young women. Selling Sex in Heaven visits the social hygiene clinic where hundreds of young women line up daily for health checks. Following these visits, the women are issued passes certifying their good health. They wear badges around their necks or on their bikinis while dancing for Western men. In a more sobering scene, the film captures a dramatic rescue of 17 young girls (some as young as 10 years old) from a local brothel. Told through the eyes of two female Canadian students and a male university professor from Nova Scotia now living in the Philippines, Selling Sex in Heaven captures two years of Mila's life and the people who befriend her. Witness the complexity of prostitution and the conflicting attitudes of people affected by this demeaning industry, including prostitutes, community workers and even clients. Selling Sex in Heaven was produced and directed by Meredith Ralston of Ralston Productions (Halifax). This is an eye-opening show. The women are "screened" weekly for STDs but only for some STDs, not all. The "screening" consists of just a visual inspection for visible signs of disease. There are no swabs taken, no blood tests, no urine tests and they are not tested for HIV/AIDS yet they are given a clean bill of health and sent on their way. Condoms are hard to come by and their customers are not screened at all. Two of the girls both wound up pregnant by "johns" and both wound up with HIV and one died from AIDS only 2 months after she was first diagnosed. Are some of you squirming in your seat yet? You will be after watching this show!
