What does "Open Minded" mean to you

[capitalCforcougar 16766]

As with a lot of things.. in this business, and with life in general I think <grin>... I seem to have a different take on this as well....

To me, being 'open-minded' isn't solely relating to sex... but to keep it in properrr context for here....

 

To me, being a sexually open-minded person simply means I inquire listen, discuss anything you wish, with no judgement, ridicule... embarrassment... and yes, decide for myself if it something I am willing to engage in. If I enjoy it.. I not only continue, but will certainly repeat.. if not, then I simply don't... or find an eloquent way to change the activity ;) and not bother repeating that activity <grin>

 

And I cannot believe someone (provider) would say they were 'open-minded'.. and then have a mile-long list of *don'ts* and NOT discuss them beforehand..... parrrrdon my characteristic bluntness here, but.... that's a bit f*cked up and cannot be good for business ;)

 

My own thirst for new experiences makes me one is is most definitely open-minded...free-spirited no matter the context....sex and sensuality is just another way to explore/enjoy it ;)

I've never really paid much attention to "open minded". I figured if she works in this field, she's pretty open minded... but I suppose that it means she will listen to you and try to please you in the way you want her to treat you, rather then just mechanically doing her thing. One of my big preference is I love to gently run my hands through a woman hair, especially while kissing or in cowgirl (not unrelatedly I also particularly like long hair). I guess I have a hair fetish. Her willingness to let me gently play with her hair has a huge impact on if I repeat or not. So I always hope she open minded about her hair, lol.

 

As for Girl Friend Experience. I do think that does mean something as I've been with ladies in Austria who made no attempt to engage in conversation, or was not affectionate or friendly during the session... and only partly because of the language barrier... I do enjoy the GFE but some lady's create the illusion better then others. and of course after a few repeats and a genuine connection is formed... its not really an illusion.

Often a throw away line. Chemistry decides most every thing.

MightyPen hit the nail right on the head. I am exceptionally open-minded and want clients to feel like the are in a judge-free space. I do however, avoid using this particular word in advertisements because I do think some men will interpret it as "open to extras".

[Manluvsex 13731]

The dictionary definition of open-minded refers to receptivity to new ideas and not judging others for those ideas. So it is clear that being open to consider an activity does not necessarily mean the willingness to carry out that activity. It is always the provider's call as to what she is comfortable with doing with her own body.

 

The use of the term "open-minded", in the context of ads for sensual or sexual services can lead to confusion between the provider and the client as to what is being offered, and in my view and should be avoided, just like the term "limited restrictions".

I am definitely open minded and to me this means I like a wide range of things and am always open to new ideas! No judgement...both ways :)

Regrettably , the majority of men will take this as a cue to try to push the envelope well past the provider's advertised services. Men are from Mars women are from Venus. It's really in your best interest not to use the phrase.

I agree to the above! To me "open-minded" means "more open-minded than your SO, which is why you seek companionship with an escort".

In this industry, in most places it's code for bare back, unprotected.

I think, especially in this industry, that yes, it is most often misunderstood as 'bare'... or 'risky'.... when all it *actually* means, is open to non-judgemental discussion of ideas ;)

...just because I will listen..... does not mean I will change my habits/ways/brain ;)
