All I did was contest the idea that subs who prioritise local would be screened out maybe wasn't a good idea, I dont know, its what I would do if I decide to visit a PD. Is that such a henious question that it requires a full on shit storm? Are the PD's on here so Precious and Diva Like that a question from someone asking a question from ignorance is treated as a personal critisism and that the person who asks is assuming a homogeneity among PD's? Do I have an answer? I dont know. nothing wrong with La Bradford taking that veiw but is it common? all ive got is maybes and probablys and "joo da twoll"!

As with all things, it's a little less black and white than that. Of course it's fine that to be one reason to see me, but if it's the only reason and they haven't read your website or decided to email you because you look really interesting then that's when they are refused a session..... these are the guys that presume we are a one size fits all service provider - believing that we're not is not diva like, it's realistic - and beneficial to both parties. I usually give people the benefit of the doubt - explain to them - tell them to read the website and then ask them for a whole host of information to determine whether a session would be good for both of us. This is what LAB was driving at. Sorry that she was expecting you to read between the lines on that one! | |||

No, of course not. Don't be silly. Some subs are extraordinarily lucky to live near me. Yet, you are expecting and suggesting that I am somehow wrong for running my business my way. That we should all run our businesses your way. That is how it is coming across. There is asking a question and then there is arguing the toss when you don't agree with the answer. Two very different things that will get very different reponses. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough. *Some* potential clients DO give their *only* reason for wanting to see me as my being local to them. That is a really rubbish reason for wanting to hand over a wad of cash and put your balls on the line with a complete, and possibly insane, stranger. It is my right and my perogative to refuse someone who gives locality as their only AND primary reason for seeing me. Living near me is a billy bonus for them. What I expect, and what I get, from successful applicants is a reason, or number of reasons, why they want to see me rather than another PD in the local area. Acceptable reasons are often based around my skills, my experience and my all round fabulousness.
I'd love to have that tune as my signature tune but, unfortunately, another PD got there before me. "If no sexual offence is being committed it seems very odd indeed that there should be an offence for having an image of something which was not an offence," Lord Wallace of Tankerness | |||

Well I have found this to be Very interesting indeed, had Me laughing out loud at times, I am sure that there must be lots and lots and lots of PD's in London, but if the sub looking decides he/she has seen something in a PD from another area, I have found from personal experience that they contact the one that has caught their attention, then if they have read about My interests and they have similar, once a date and time has been set its time to get what I desire, and in Pleasing Me they will of course be happy....... Money well spent, and memorys to Treasure...... | |||

in all honesty if someon is paying £300 for a session then they are not going to bother to much about £50 in petrol are they? if its london to scotland then i can see how it would put people off though but i can see people travelling a reasonable distance for a product like this i can't think of anything to say here | |||

Cos that's the answer...... well for a lot us anyway
I'm not sure it's a good analogy but try comparing it to your own search for a domme (I'm guessing you are looking from your profile - if I'm wrong than ignore the rest of this Your area is shown as the South East. Are you rigidly going to stick with this and the dommes in the SE or would you be prepared to widen the area range for the right person? I know there are a few imponderables - is it long term or is it for play or is it both.. but I hope you get my drift

Actually to contradict Cookie Monster sometimes proximity ISN'T a virtue. I'd never use a pro Domme that I was likely to end up bumping into at the local supermarket. Or worse. For me selection of Pro Dommes probably works on the following list: - 1) They cater for my desires. There's obviously no point in choosing someone that isn't into your particular fetish. 2) They WILL cater for my desires. Slightly more subtle than one. It's not just an interest check box thing. It is a style thing, a flexibility thing. I was nearly tempted to travel to a Pro Domme that worked nearly the other end of the country and wasn't particularly attractive (in fact I suspected may have started out with "male" on the birth certificate) because a description of a scenario on "her" site accorded so exactly with my fantasy. Similarly very "I am the Mistress. I am the Expert. I decide what happens" profiles don't always appeal. 3) Cost. It is a big factor. 4) Proximity and accessibility. Obviously a saving of £30 per hour is not going to justify a round trip of 700 miles plus. Equally someone whose premises are on a main road away from a city centre are more attractive than a city centre (may be awkward to get to and to park) or out in the sticks (insufficiently anonymous) 5) Consumer friendly. Those who insist on Paypal deposits aren't as consumer friendly as those who don't. 6) Reliability. PDs who are part of IC above those who are not. Detailed profiles, particularly those with a long list of "nots". Scam artists will promise anything. One profile I found was particularly attractive because it depicted the Doome doing lots of things I enjoyed (and even more that I didn't - euurrggh), and clearly showed the Domme had been working a long time and was successful. Successful Dommes are more likely to be discreet Dommes. 7) Physical Attractiveness. For me of not very high importance since for PD's generally intercourse isn't on the menu. I fully accept that how I think might not be how others think. But most sub posts here tend to be from the hopelessly devoted, the hopelessly embittered, or just the hopeless. I thought it would be interesting to actually tell it how it was... Edited 8 Feb 10, 11:15 PM by Ksoc_Tuppep |
