All I am asking is what is the difference between me being prepared with protection and the gentleman being prepared with protection? We both make good enough money and we both have private lives on the side. Being caught with extra laying around or purchasing a high volume could hurt either one of our reputations ....and/or relationships.

Thank you for the feed back to those who provided a good explanation. I now have a better understanding of the gentleman's point of view.

Karla's response is right on the money. Yes, the clients may make or have enough money to buy the condoms, but it is a cost of doing business as a provider/escort/companion. I think the difference is that the regular guy may see one or two providers a week (yeah there are those lucky bastards that have a budget to see a provider a day or more, but not everyone is that lucky) because of budget or being able to get away from home. So for them it may not make sense to have a box of condoms available.
Also, the female is running a business and the guy is basically a customer. If you don't keep them in stock you may lose a customer, however, if a guy does not have any he will just find a lady that does have them in stock and take his "gift" elsewhere.
Also, it does not seem that it is the gentlemen's point of view, but most of the people in these forums views.

Great advice from Nikki. Also, her post make me think that maybe if you are wondering about a hobby issue in regards to providing or escorting or whatever you want to call it, why not approach one of the ladies that have been doing this for a longer time. Because lets face it, sure the guys may be able to provide you with some opinions (good or bad) in regards to how they think X or Y should be in regards to running a good provider business, but I think the best advice would come from someone that has been doing it right for some while.
