944 Nightlife August – Las Vegas Courtesan

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

So the magazine finally came out! I went and looked on Monday for a copy but the places I tried hadn’t received their new editions yet. I’ll have to look some more this weekend. Either way you can check out the full page view on 944.com in their magazine flip book page 44.

Here’s the original photo I took so you can have a better close up look and actually read the blurb underneith :

VEGAS COURTESAN

She’s unrecognizable on the street, and she goes to great lengths to keep it
that way. The Las Vegas Courtesan, an anonymous area escort of five years,
operates a popular blog where she shares her thoughts, x-rated photography
and humorous stories, and does her very best to educate the public on how the
adult industry really works. And while it is perfectly OK to look — as many as
several thousand people view her blog each day — don’t ask her to touch. “I
get crazy offers with people wanting to book me through my blog, but it was
created to be a creative outlet, not for advertising myself,” the VC says. “I never
have and never will use it to book an appointment with clients. My anonymity
is very important!”

A Little Q&A Part III

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

Been getting some great questions sent to me… I got quite a few in one email that I thought would be great to answer. Actually I’m going to have to split it up into two entries! Hope the answers interest some others as well! :

Dan Writes: “Do you keep a fairly standard schedule, or do you consider yourself ‘on call’ most of the time? Judging from your tweets your day doesn’t seem to start until late and it seems you may go until sunrise if there’s business. Have you ever even done a call in the middle of the day? You also don’t seem to take many days off, other than vacation.”

I consider myself on call quite a bit because realistically, you can never judge how a day or week is going to go. It could be an early day (calls between 3-9pm) or a late night (3am-8am). There are always lulls in the night so it’s not like you are working for 12 hours straight. The only times that I have had that happen are during huge fight weekends or some convention+event that had a consistent stream of early calls plus late night calls. I do middle of the day calls (which I love because less alcohol is involved!) and I do take days off besides vacation. Every one needs a break! It might seem that I don’t get afternoon or daytime calls because those people don’t seem to do as many funny or crazy things to share with people. They are more cut and dry calls with not much to report on.

“Do you pack outfits when you go to a gig? Keep some spares in the car? How does it work if a guy wants spike heels or a schoolgirl and you don’t have time to go home? And how do you find a balance between looking sexy for first impressions with a client and not screaming “working girl” when you walk into a lobby? Then again, it’s Vegas, maybe walking into the lobby of the Palazzo dressed as “Bo Peep” might help you fit in…”

I don’t typically keep too much in my car as far as outfits go. Sometimes I put some more plain clothes to keep in case I am out until it is daytime and I don’t want to look like a long lost girl who left the nightclub hours before. Some girls keep little bikini type of outfits with them on the weekends (more bachelor parties) but other than that any special outfit requests would need to give us an ample amount of time to go home and change. The only requests I have gotten really are for stockings, which is much easier to pick up on the way to a call than drive all the way home. I’m sure anyone would be able to make outfit requests so long as they made an appointment in advance and not trying to do something last minute. As far as how I like to dress, I think there is a delicate balance between looking good and sticking out as a working girl. I try to dress appropriately to the time of day and the day of week so clients don’t feel so uncomfortable and I fit in. Hard to go pick up a girl at noon wearing spiked heels and a cocktail dress!

In relation to a tweet I sent the other night about a call: “You went to the Travelodge tonight. Gotta be honest, that kinda creeps me out. Is there a direct correlation between the client and their hotel every time? Or can you get a good client at the Travelodge and a shitty one at the Four Seasons?”

Usually, there is no direct correlation between a hotel and a client’s budget. Often times the small, funky hotels surprise you since a lot of people go to them not to sleep in but to have side entertainment since someone else is staying in their regular five star hotel room. There have been times I have gone to suites that cost upwards of $10,000 a night (usually comped because they gamble so much) that don’t work out and then the next call could be a funky place downtown and the client has fun for a few hours. I always say the common phrase, ” You can never judge a book by its cover” because you can’t attribute age, attire, level of inebriation, race, hotel, or room size to the success of the call.

Thanks for the questions and I will continue them in my next post!

A Little Q&A Part II

Monday, July 12th, 2010

Here’s a good question I received from Eric:

“How do you feel about reviews? There are plenty of review sites for sex workers – TER, etc – and some women seem to like being reviewed, others not. What do you think? Also, are they a danger for the sex workers who are reviewed – raising their profile, bringing them to the attention of the police?”

I feel like I am lucky to work in a city that isn’t largely based on reviews like many other places. I think in other cities this becomes a popular way to find sex workers due to the lack of advertising in the town or there is such a large number of girls to sort through it becomes an easier way to find a quality one. Of course, the main issue with this is abuse by the clients or people who say they are clients. They end up telling their side of the story in a false manner or just lying outright just to hurt the girl’s reputation. With this aspect I hear many girls stressing over their reviews in their hometown and constantly dealing with liars and cheats who gain nothing by hurting a girl’s means of income. I know if the girl has lots of reviews it ends up being a good thing for them, but it seems like the dark side of the review boards take over the good girls and the girls who seem to be practicing more unsafe sex (bareback blow jobs etc) wins this crazy online battle. I personally like that I don’t have reviews on these big sites because of what you mentioned: higher public profiles to law enforcement. You never know how much the client will go into detail on these sites, which is like incriminating yourself in my opinion, and you can’t prevent what they write on there.

Why are review sites not popular in Vegas? I think this is because so many girls work for so many different agencies here. Both agencies and girls come and go over long periods of time, or girls just visit a lot while living somewhere else so it’s more difficult to really figure out who the reviews are for. There are so many agencies in this town as well that names get confused, web sites change, and numbers change. I think all around it’s hard to get a consistent review on one girl here that you could trust. Only a handful of times have I had clients say, “Well I was giving you a shot because you have no reviews online and just assumed you were new to Vegas”. I explain that I’m not brand new to Vegas, but they won’t be disappointed! In the end they are happy and surprisingly… don’t go write reviews either! So the cycle continues….

A Little Q&A

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

Since I was down for the count this past 4th of July weekend, I sat down today to try and think about points I haven’t covered here that might seem interesting or that people may have a question about. I turned to my Twitter followers to help me out with any questions they might have. I know a lot of people have trended to use the formspring site, but I know a lot of people who find it annoying and hard to read plus not everyone is on Twitter!

Q: I don’t think you’ve covered anal? Do it? Do most girls? What’s the going rate?

I have had a few clients ask me this request, usually while snickering on the phone trying to use code words like “Greek”, so it’s hard to sometimes take them seriously. I have never actually gone through a session where a client paid for it, nor have I witnessed a girl performing anal with a client in the same room. In fact, if anal does occur amongst other girls I work with I never hear about it actually happening. I know most girls would charge quite a large fee for it since its dangerous, takes time to “warm up”, oh… and it’s dangerous! I think it would take a lot of trust between the girl and the client for this to happen since the girl would have less control and would want to make sure the client respects them and their comfort level. It’s hard for all of these things to come into place, plus be taken care of for the time consuming service. Like I’ve said before, I don’t really have regulars, so the people that I do see are meeting me for the first time. It’s hard to get a feel for someone on a first visit. I know that girls elsewhere who see clients locally and who have more regulars seem to offer this service more than here in the tourist-driven town of Las Vegas.

Q: Is your job hard or dangerous sometimes?

I think I’ve mentioned briefly before that bad calls (or even physically violent calls) are quite rare. With experience it becomes easier to read people to see if a call is going down a bad path and to avoid it by adjusting my attitude or making sure the other girl/girls on the call aren’t causing problems. It seems with the downturn of the economy most phone girls have adjusted their attitudes, as well, and have become more understanding of issues on calls where it seems almost impossible to get the agency fee. They tend to speak more truthfully on the phone to the clients now (their vagueness had gotten pretty bad, at one point) and are even more lenient on knocking money off the fee to ensure that we will end up making something. I have to say that is one positive thing that has come out of the sluggish economy: being able to negotiate fees and be a little more cautious before checking in on a call. This has also made bad calls drop.

Have any more questions? Feel free to ask! I definitely want to go more into how I got into the business but have come to realize that is going to take a few entries to do and some real personal reflection on what was going through my mind at the time. Either way, leave questions here or never be afraid to shoot me one here
