This is a good topic. Very helpful to read these comments.
I've actually thought about asking this same question before in this forum (maybe without the visual aid.) Something to the effect of "ladies, how good
does a guy need to look?" Like a few guys here, I'm not quite and cute and in-shape as I was in my 20s and 30s. The question usually crosses my mind about the time I'm thinking of stepping out a little further with a better-looking provider. I'd consider most of my past providers to be very nice looking...but maybe not "upper tier/elite" looking (like some who have contributed to this thread—Melanie, BSB, etc). Going to that level does make me hesitate. It's a little intimidating.
I kind of expected the replies to be what they are here. As Steve Buscemi said in Resevoir Dogs..."Hey, I'm a fucking professional" ...meaning, he can handle it. (In his case, he was a professional bank robber.) We all have clients who we just put up with. In my biz, it doesn't matter what they look like, just how smart and open-minded they are. Those that aren't, I still try be pleasant, do my best for them, and make them think I'm interested in their dumb ideas.
So, something like that??
