Discretion.....

22 Dec, 2024

Discretion by definition-the quality of behaving or speaking in such a way as to avoid causing offense or revealing private information.

Private information, unless otherwise stated is information shared between two consenting adults. Because someone has given you access to their personal space/body/identity...does NOT mean you have the right to share that information!!

Discretion is  a word thrown around alot within our industry, yet seldom is it respected. Seldom do those who expect it, offer it in return. To know this all you have to do is to spend a few minutes on one of the many exisitng review boards. Gossip thrives there, as does misinformation and proof of how skewed the use of discretion is. Board members are typical in their thought that they have a right to be anonymous all while they spout trite and crude comments about the escorts they visit or seek to visit. These members will also spread the misinformation that providing screening information and deposits to an escort as being unsafe. They typically base this conclusion on their experience of being scammed by an escort they've visited. What they leave out in that conclusion is that the scammer is most often an unknown escort, with no online presence, or searchable history that they took no time to vet or even speak with. If clients took the time to research the escorts they choose, then scammers would fall by the wayside. But more often than not, the guys that get scammed, don't bother researching, nor do they converse with the escort they decide to meet. Then they go on to believe that all escorts are scammers and unsafe. All while still wanting access to them....make it make sense!!

Professional escorts DO screen and often require a depoist, especially for longer dates, or dates booked in advance.The fact that we do so should be seen as a sign of professionalism, NOT as an unsafe practice. Scammers don't care about screening a client nor do they ask for deposits, or ask relevant questions a professional escort would ask a client. Professional escorts have lots of online presence and are active on social media. We also take discretion in all it's meaning, seriously. There are lots of escorts who enjoy being reviewed, but they also expect discretion and respectfulness when reviews are written. However I don't know any escort who enjoys a client discussing them or their services, publicly or privately in a gossipy or disrespectful manner. If you have questions about an escort, wouldn't they be the best person to pose those questions to. Far to many review board guys think that discretion means they and all their details get to remain anonymous all while they speak publicly and privately in graphic and crude manners while sharing details about escorts with no shame of doxing location details or personal information. That is not how it works. If you expect discretion, then please be willing to offer it as well. No one likes a gossip, and review board guys prove daily just how desparately they thrive on gossip with no regard for the discretion of those they meet or want to meet. It's embarrassing. No wonder the general public doesn't take our industry seriously.....
