The Las Vegas Courtesan

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!

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….

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

I get asked this question quite a bit by nervous guys who feel like they are somehow inadequate to women and figure who better to ask than a girl who sees a lot of penises? I can see their reasoning’s why I might be a good person to ask….

I really started thinking about it when a Chinese guy in his early 20’s struck up a conversation while I was getting ready to leave.  He is going to school in the states for a few years and had observed some things, but was especially concerned about the discussion of penis size.  I think he had seen some pornographic movies since living here and asked, “So white men, they are like this long, huh?” and held up his hands to make a length of almost a FOOT. I almost died laughing watching him try to judge what he thought was the normal size of other men. Then he went on to say, “because I know… Chinese man is very small, huh?” I said to him that I don’t know what he watched or what he was judging it on, but if he was basing it on watching porno movies since living in the US then he shouldn’t be so concerned. I think the men that are in said movies are approximately 2% of the population and since they seem to last longer sometimes (I know they do several shots and takes to make it seem like they come once an hour) I think the size + stamina drops the stats down even further.  Maybe I am wrong, but I very very rarely see men who could audition for some sort of porn movie role.  Sounds crazy but true.

The average client I see has a penis between the length of 4-6 inches. The typical stamina of clients is fairly quick, which goes along with some statistics I read that the average man lasts 4-6 minutes. I think sometimes things last longer, here in Vegas, just because of the amount of drinking and partying that people do and THEN decide to call a prostitute. Usually those people can’t finish or get it up. I can usually tell this is going to happen within the first 2 minutes of starting to entertain a guy. Back to penis size though… I know a lot of people will disagree with my numbers but here’s my theory: maybe men who are significantly larger have more self confidence and they don’t feel the need to use the services of a prostitute or maybe they feel like they have something to prove and won’t use their services.  The one thing that shocks me the most though is the number of men who look like their penis was marred by a bad circumcision.  I see quite a few that point weird directions, come to a small point like a rocket, have super skinny shafts but a big mushroom head or vice versa, and the most painful of all: are hooked almost as much as Gonzo’s nose on the Muppets.

Either way, I hope I dismissed some myths and I know I definitely gave a little more confidence to the Chinese student by assuring him that he was normal and don’t worry about competing with the porn stars.

I am looking forward to this weekend (I think) when the UK guys hop the pond to come to Vegas to see Ricky Hatton fight at the MGM Grand. I have no idea who he is fighting, nor do I care, but all I know is he sure does draw a crowd from his fans in northern England. Though I stayed really busy during his last fight against Mayweather, I learned a lesson on what part of England spends the most money on girls. Seems to be the southern gents of the island and not the northern guys that have the deep pockets. The northern clients are of a more hit or miss situation thrown in with a little spunky attitude. Ah well I can take them all! I’d rather it be busy and be mediocre than just plain old boringly slow any day.

My other random thought for the day: Why are there so many vanity license plates that are in reference to pimping. That has to be one of the more idiotic things I have seen people in the business do. That’s like a stoner putting on his plates, “Reefer” or “TokinUp” or a druggie putting “SnrtCok” on his car. Just not a bright move I would think. So the latest plate (which was out of state) that I saw was “Pipn8EZ” driving around Las Vegas. So, if you are followed, investigated, and charged with pimping across state lines then it turns into a federal matter. That guy must be *brilliant*! If the men are that dumb, the girls who follow them around like lost puppies must be even more intellectual. Sheesh.

Speaking of pimping, I am still meaning to do my own mini-questionnaire for the girls who I know who have pimps. I’m slightly nervous because I don’t want others (or their pimps) to know that I am asking questions but I am just curious: WHY have a pimp?? Agencies do all of the work, so what is that guy good for? So here are the two questions I have which are short and simple:

1) Why do you have a pimp
2) How did you end up having one.

Any other suggestions for my little questionnaire? I would love input!

So since my site has been redone I have added my email address and opened up for questioning about all things Las Vegas when dealing with the sex industry and escorts. Here’s one question I received and thought it would be a good idea to answer on here since this is a common question I have received when regarding couples:

“My wife and I will be visiting Vegas in a few months and have been talking about possibly contacting an escort while we are there. It’s mostly for her, though I’m sure I’ll enjoy it as well. We looked at some internet sites, and I remember receiving lots of those cards when I visited Vegas in the past, but we don’t really trust those contact methods. Consistent with what you were saying, I’ve always had a feeling that the girls in the pictures are not likely to be the ones they send. My wife and I are both young and attractive and I’m sure we could probably find someone at a club in Vegas. But we don’t really go to clubs, and I don’t think we actually want to establish a real relationship with someone while we’re there. We just want to have a little fun. Do you have any suggestions? Ideally, we would be able to check the girl out and maybe even set things up a little before we get there.”

I think there are two options for this type of entertainment when people are a little more on the nervous and cautious side when trying to book:
First, is of course looking online for people who specifically see couples and contact them about arranging a meeting. Most people don’t mind coming over to meet up and figuring things out from there as far as entertainment goes. I think meeting people in clubs around here can be difficult and time consuming and possibly a complete waste of time. You are right about most of the girls in the pictures being too good to be true, but if you suspect whom you are calling is an agency then maybe just give them a good description of the type of girl you are looking for. The only difference between an independent girl and someone through an agency is just a fee that you have to pay up front to get them there and naked. Other than that, there isn’t much difference.

The second option is the legal one: the brothels out in Pahrump. If you are still feeling unsure and want to be able to speak freely about what entertainment you both would like (hard to when you are in Las Vegas since prostitution is illegal) then I think the most confident way to go is to visit one of these places. It’s not too far away and they offer transportation if you contact the brothel ahead of time. Luckily they made it easy by putting the Chicken Ranch and Sheri’s Ranch next door to each other so if one doesn’t suit you, then you can walk next door to the other one. I personally have visited both properties and found that the selection of girls at Sheri’s is better. Each girl sets her own price so you have to talk to them there. I know girls personally who work out there and charge $800+ for a couples party (the more both of you are involved the more expensive it gets). I don’t think the cost will differ too much whether you call a girl in Vegas or you make the trip to Pahrump… but the only difference is Pahrump offers a piece of mind with safe, professional girls who you can talk freely and openly to. Also picking a girl from a group at the Ranch is sometimes easier than waiting for a girl in your room because if she shows up to your hotel and you don’t approve, then you don’t have to wait another 20-30 minutes for the next girl to show up… or have to call someone else entirely.
Of course I don’t want anyone to be discouraged from calling a girl here locally but if the technicalities of booking something and not knowing who, what, or how much bothers you then I’d suggest the brothels. It’s the only thing of its kind in the U.S. and I think everyone should experience them.
Hopefully that helped some people who are just nervous and don’t know what to do when it comes to finding someone to entertain a couple… and I hope I didn’t shoot my own business in the foot
