Exactly. As Mistress Susannah posted earlier, it's not something personal, it's a hunch based on our own experience or quite simply, alarm bells ringing for one reason or another. I don't keep tabs, but I must turn down more than 50% enquiries. If it doesn't feel right or I don't feel I gel or relate to the other person's idea about the session, I won't see them. This said, 80% of people I turn down, I do because they sound like very obvious time wasters who won't bother to turn up, nothing else.

With the non timewasters that you turn down, if you don't mind me asking, what are the most common reasons for not gelling. Does it tend to be things like guys just presenting a "shopping" list for a session (summarised, an exact idea for a session), having no idea what they what from a session etc?

I refuse applications for a number of reasons

I don't like their attitude and can detect arrogance or assumption
I don't like their idea of what femdom is. Some of them really do think we are dolls to be dressed up and programmed
Their interests don't match mine
From their answers I can see that they haven't read or understood my site
They haven't indicated enough interests to interest me
They are prescriptive and have a specific scenario that doesn't interest me
They don't appear to be receptive to new ideas or experiences
Their primary reason to wish to see me is because I am local to them

Thanks for the explanation

And thanks for saving me all the hard work. Lady Anna's list says it very clearly.

OK I'll stick my head in the lionesses mouth.

Item 1 Who pays the piper calls the tune? If you dont like what the want surely that falls into other catergories?

Item 2

Why should they? they may just want one particular service you advertise? see my answer above.

Item 3

Depending on their life and commitments I can see locality as a valid priority. If I was hiring I'd prolly look at 6 nearest then pick one,again, depending on my scedule.

Please note I do agree with most of your points, being reasonable.

I'm going to go ahead and pick the obvious answer;

1. If there are clients to spare why not only pick the ones that best fit?

2. See above.

3. See above.

All this time and hassle people put into trying to get PDs to explain every decision they make professionally is mystifying. It's not rocket science, it's capitalism (which granted is quite complicated, but it's not -that- hard to figure out).

fair does but its not capitalism its markets, or monopolistic behaviour, which explains LAB's antipathy to local rivals(ie training a novice).

Fair enough, LAB cant be faulted for aiming for the best outcome, its what can happen though in an unregulated market/free market.

Of course its the sub thats likely to come of worse in these situations. Mind you a monopsony maket would beinteresting with few subs and lots of Dommes.

Few Mistresses to choose from locally who may assume its just because they are local, for example.

True less competition is a form of price maintanance.

I'm not being mean here, prostitution in London was expensive then the Russian Mafia moved in with a cheap supply of immigrant girls.

You cant rule out something like that happening in an unregulated clandestine trade.

I don't reject someone because they are local. I reject them because the *only* reason they give for seeing me is because I am local. I have dozens of regular clients who are local but my locality wasn't the primary concern for them. They wanted to session with me. Me. Because of my site, my skills, my sense of humour, my interests and my personality. If someone gives the only reason for seeing me based on my being local then they are assuming that I am one of many MacDommes. These clients think we are all the same and locality is enough to differentiate us.

If they haven't got the nous to read and do their research and understand that we are different then I'm not prepared to waste my time on trying to educate them, they are morons who see us as just a service. They assume we see them as a wallet. These people don't interest me.

I can afford to be very very fussy about who I see.
