What are the odds?

Do you ask your potential clients for photos or a physical description? I'm not following how this plays a factor.

Oh, you're correct. It doesn't play a factor in his decision making process. I was just spurting out words to make a point.

But to answer your question, I would prefer a man NOT send me a picture of his face or worse, his penis. I have often found that if you see a picture beforehand, he still looks different then the picture. It's always a surprise.

To the original poster:
I hope that I didn't sound too harsh. You asked a good question and it's obvious that you're concerned and want this to be a great time. But always remember, it's just sex. If this one isn't a "10", the next time might be.

Think of it this way ... and then I'll leave ya'll alone. Was losing your virginity everything you thought it would be? I don't know much about men but for me and many of my girlfriends, it was a real letdown. And then? Oh. My. God.

With knowledge and some practice, everything changed.

I had better leave this discussion ... I'm getting befuddled!!!

P.S. Have fun on your appointment!

When I first joined aspd I would read reviews and then make appointments with ladies I liked the reviews of. The service was always good to go but if your not careful the ladies aren't always what you'd expect. Older, heavy etc.. One of the issues I found was that many ladies didn't have pics and guys don't always include enough info or I didn't read carefully enough. When a review says not bbw but..... it usually means she is big. Crossing with p411 usually helps as they have pics and eccie has the showcases that have pics which is a big improvement over aspd. Some ladies post old pics or have pics of only flattering parts that don't always match so I agree with sending pm's to ask questions on this. The other sights like backpage, cl often have fake pics that in no way match the ladies so thats always a crapshoot for pics and many are scammers. Doing iso's on someone you might be interested in is a great way to gather info from the board.

Everyone has already said it but I'll just add my voice to the chorus. Your chances of running into LE or a rip-off are extremely low if you stick to p411.

Service levels vary but look to reviews and talking with the other guys to make a solid judgment on that one. If you are STRONGLY risk averse, avoid anyone known for YMMV.

Your chances of running into a lady that is not as attractive as the image you had built up in your mind based on photos and reviews is probably high.

Really, who goes out and puts up the ugliest picture of themselves? Nobody. You don't go to a Real Estate agent's website and see the photo that was taken at the least flattering angle with the worst light with all of her wrinkles and puffy eyes showing? I think it's rare that anyone, man, woman, child, etc, looks quite as good in every day life as they do in their best photographs. Certain poses and angles will make an ass look bigger or smaller, rounder or flatter. Angles can make boobs look bigger or smaller, perkier or droopier. Different poses make a tummy look tight or flabby. If looks are a huge priority for you, it's probably best to lower your expectations. There are very few perfect women.

If a lady's face is a key selling point, you might try going to the socials. Many girls show up there and you can meet them face to face. Of course, you'll need a couple of provider vouches first. And always remember one man's perfect 10 is another man's 7.

Good luck!

Thanks for everyones input, my concerns are mainly LE and Ripoffs. Nobody's perfect physically and quite honestly personality and a positive attitude are the biggest factors. I mean if its not a fun time, whats the point? Celebrate the diversity!

I have no issues with craigslist or BP, but for me P411 in addition to those will be the preference. Its not smart to jump off a pier without knowing what your jumping into!

Party on!
