Hobbling is just taking a quick trip. You can go in a Bentley or a Subaru. They both have the same basic equipment and both get you where you want to go. It's normally a relatively short ride and how you got there is really not the point. However, the cost of that ride is really important to most normal people. If you want to pay that added cost, knock yourself out. There ain't no pussy that good no matter what these whores try to tell you. It's all a cost reward ratio. I like to keep it 1 or ≤1....ijs.

I know exactly what you mean ...
I can't really tell the difference between eating a meal at McDonalds or at a 5-Star restaurant ... Except that one of them is much more expensive.
I mean, at the end of the day both places serve food and you ate a meal.

There's a movie called "Hollywood Shuffle". A hot dog stand owner presents a new product idea to his employees called "Ho cakes". His advertising line is "Ho cakes cause hoes have to eat too!"
Inflation is a MoFo.

Human flesh is expensive to buy but the images of human flesh is virtually free, in other words internet porn. The way a buyer can control prices is by reducing demand, stop buying. The seller then has to adjust prices, increase services (expand on the menu and time limit), or go out of business.

Or, you could do what BoneMaker Barbie did and find a sucker to give you money for nothing.

ROFLMAO! ... These fucking idiots ... Tell you what, reduce YOUR demand and see what impact that has on prices.

In my opinion, there are two things that keep the price of escorts from comforting to a basic supply/demand curve.
1) Each transaction is wear and tear on the provider body and over a given day, each additional client is a marginally less desirable transaction for the provider. If a gal can charge $200 a pop, see 5 clients a day for 1K income, or charge $400 a pop, see 2 clients a day for $800 income, I suspect most gals would take the second option every time. Even though in a rational model, the first option is more money.
2) Hobby transactions are about more than just a change of money for service. There are feelings and preferences involved. As a gal raises prices, a different type of client comes calling. At $100-200 per hour, think The Cute Papi. At $500 per hour, think The Traveling Gentleman. (I don't know for sure if TTG is a gentleman, I just like the name.) That also drives up prices as a provider seeks a higher class of clientele.
Now us mongers are much more rational consumers. We take the lowest price point that will satisfy our needs. The broker we are, the lower that price point goes. If we come into some money, we might splurge on a more expensive gal. We are rational, they are not, and providers skew the supply curve in the more expensive direction, thus mongers will ALWAYS think the price of hookers is way too expensive

Or maybe most mongers on here are cheap, broke ass fucks, who just like to whine about prices.

Or maybe you legs should spend less time worrying about what these whores charge and how that fits into your bullshit freshman year economics class, and start spending more time out there turning out waffle waitresses and runaways.

So you're agreeing with me? (You do know what price elasticity of demand is, right?)

The supplier will charge what the users are willing to pay. Simple. If you demand a Bentley don't expect to have the cost of the Subaru. Guy's this is some ridiculous shit. Choose what you are willing to spend and don't bitch cause someone else is willing to pay more. Fuck the wear and tear on a whores body. Not my concern. Do y'all worry about wear and tear on a mechanic, plumber, gardener, roofer, etc?. They are paid for a service they provide. Nothing else. I know I don't loose sleep worrying if my gardener got tired today....ijs

Choosing to do 60% less work for 20% less money is not irrational, it's a reasonable exercise of judgment. You're thinking more about utility than rationality. Doing 20% less work for 60% less money would be closer to irrational. That said, you are correct that supply in this case is constrained not only by the provider's willingness, but also her physical ability to do the next trick. The oft heard hobbyist advice "drop your price and you'll get more business and make more money" does not account for this.

Based on what I have seen on this board, as well as my own personal experiences hobbying, I would never characterize it as "we're rational, they're not."

Indeed, reading this forum does nothing to improve the supply side of the equation. And yet, here we are.
