Do you pay for the domination or the domme? (25)

professional_BDSM's profile . professional_BDSM group posts

Posted by McDelphian on Tue 22 Dec 09, 1:28 PM to the professional_BDSM group.

Just a post about different dommes offering different prices. Is there a reason that the pro ladies on this website are roughly £150 an hour and some pro dommes are upto £1000?

Is it the session you are paying for or just the level of attractiveness?

There are some drop dead gorgeous Russian ladies based in the south that charge astronomical prices, I'm just wondering if it's because they are clearly beautiful.

I pay for a session with a lovely intelligent lady who I regard as my domme. She takes me places no-one else can and is a good friend too. She is attractive both physically and mentally.

I'd be lying if I said attractiveness (in both forms) wasn't a factor in deciding who I session with, But a lady can be drop dead gorgeous and highly intelligent and be an absolutey c""p dominant. In which case that's no good at all

Different prices are for different reasons. Location, services, what you think you can get etc etc etc. There are some clients who equate higher tributes with better quality sessions but, personally, I don't agree with that

I've never, ever seen a level of attractiveness add an additonal £850 to an hour long session, LOL!

personally, I would check and double check the BDSM credentials of these "Russian Ladies" before parting with a single penny.

In general, the higher hourly rate would go to very specialist dommes, including hardcore medical and extreme rubber etc.

it may be interesting to see who are the more expensive dommes on ic and how they compare to the cheaper ones.

There isn't any law telling pro-Dommes how much they should charge for their sessions. It's a free market.

These "Russian ladies" that you refer to, charge the tribute they think they deserve and can get away with. If there are men willing to pay it, thinking that the experience is worth the money expected, good for them. Everybody is happy.

We all pay according to different parameters, overheads, expectations, etc. But if you pay attention, you'll also notice that the Mistresses who have been around for years, they all charge a tribute closer to the £150 ph band. Pro-Domming is riddled with fly-by-nights and occasional practitioners.

P.S.: Do you have links to any of these £1,000 per hour Mistresses?

Didn't Max Mosley pay £3000 for an hour with three pro dommes? They weren't Russian but if you can get that much by domming in a fake german accent what would a proper German lady be worth?

He was paying for more than one lady for an extended session if memory serves me rightly. He would also be paying a premium in the hope of being assured discretion. Much good that did him, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Seriously, people will charge whatever they think they can get away with, and there are any number of people out there who will pay inflated fees for the simple lack of knowing any better. It seems to me that most established professionals who work the scene charge a fairly standard fee, as Ms T stated. Once you get into the world of the seriously rich and those who make money off them you are potentially looking at a whole new ball game (look at the 'Mistress' session fees for the Killing Kittens parties as an example). There are people out there who think that a bigger fee equals a better service but it isn't necessarily so.

One of God's own prototypes, a high powered mutant of some kind, never considered for mass production. Too weird to live, too rare to die.

yup , that's what I was trying to find out. It appears that the pro's on ic are cheaper than non IC ones.

Might be the competition on here that drives the price down. The point about different premises thing is irrelevant as some of these grand a turn gals just loiter in upmarket bars and hotels.

IC is like TK Max - bargains galore! ;)

It seems to me, as has already been stated, that these inflated fees do not provide the basis for any kind of commercial longevity. The average £150ph is not a bargain, it is what the market can stand for established dommes with repeat clients.

Not so, generally

There are many more PDs out there than on IC and, in my experience (and that of others), tributes are reasonably standard amongst a lot of them. It does vary a bit by location

I'd have thought that a number of the PDs on IC (many of them very good) are pretty indicative of the (much much) larger PD world

so it's more a matter of the demography of the ic members?

Or are the scene users of pro's just skint and the ladies charge accordingly?

There must be some correlation between looks,age etc and price.

Looking through the pro's on ic you can tell that most are 'of a certain age' like myself lol Could it be a matter of the rarer the more expensive?

It's fascinating.
