@Minestrone101 "I think you're overestimating people's intelligence and rational mind."
I might be, though I'm gonna keep doing it, happily if I might add. We need to expect more from people and society than some caveman behavior, or we are doomed to fail. We made too much progress to go back to some atrocious time. Also if they are trying to book a pro, safe to assume they've a job or some source of income and we're smart enough to get that somehow. So they are more than smart enough to read such simple sentences. Same with if they are smart enough to use the Internet, sign up for platforms, have some type of payment method. These people are smart, maybe not very, though they re smart and maybe that's the only nice thing I can say about them. Though being smart doesn't necessarily mean 'having a heart', being respectful of people's boundaries, etc., and the rules of websites.
@Minestrone101 Hahaha, love the quote! (Also a big Carlin fan...) I gotta save that one for later. 😂
1/5 the escort rate… that is a weird way to respond.
That is exactly the right way to do it!
@Lovelight I do understand you weren’t targeting me with that comment but since I was tagged above that I saw it and have to say I don’t think I can be accused of wearing my heart on my sleeve. Rage maybe. 😂😂😂 I know it wasn’t for me but I laughed.

"I do understand you weren’t targeting me with that comment but since I was tagged above that I saw it and have to say I don’t think I can be accused of wearing my heart on my sleeve..."
Right on!
I would say read my code of conduct.
@CuddleDuncan Thnx. I’m not going to copywrite it so all are free to use.
@CuddleDuncan I also think the perspective of @jetblack is helpful. Every individual lives a different life. Every human being doesn't know the exact amount of stuff someone else does. Not everyone joins this site fulling knowing what they want from a platonic cuddle or what to expect. Understandably, most of those people would prefer to ask questions before getting in the situation. I also agree this is rare. If you find it hard to tell which one a potential cuddler is, just don't further engage with them. And I know it's hard to tell most of the time.
I don't know that I would automatically block, but definitely report to be on the safe side. The client/cuddler might not contact you again. If they did, maybe it would be more info for the mods.
@Lovelight Yeah. Well, perhaps. I can respect that line of thinking.
@KingsportCuddle Yeah. I need to watch more Carlin. One of the best quotes. here's another good one .
@MuseSF.....I guess it depends upon your interest in this work, and the way in which you perceive your role here on the site. This forum is primarily filled with people who love to assume and judge, as so many of the responses demonstrate. Yes, of course, the "restrictions" question may primarily be based upon a potential client searching for a more intimate session, or it may be someone wondering about clothing, talking, payment, etc....though probably far less likely. It's hard to determine how less likely, but does it matter?
That's the part regarding your interest in this work......do you want to entertain possibilities for working with men who tend to err on this side? The ones who are likely more interested in pushing some kind of boundaries, but are also potentially open to learning and growing? If that is you, the kind of women who believe that some men can be educated and mentored, then spend time responding, reminding them of the basic restrictions of the site, then your more nuanced preferences for first time sessions, like meeting place, amount of time, methods of payment, parts of the body you enjoy/don't enjoy touching and being touched.
But, if this isn't something you want to invest in, simply ignore the message. It takes two seconds to read, why engage thereafter, especially if someone with such a question simply does not interest you? Sure, you can block....and you can also assume and report. But even doing that requires a bit more time, and certainly invites an energy within yourself that may be distracting you from a preferred way of being.
You can view it as a spiritual challenge. The comment will not enrage, will not activate the typical presuppositions regarding men, will not distract you from finding and building the clientele that you intend. If you require thoughtful clients, who have the requisite communication skills, and know how to approach a woman offering the intentional sessions you describe, this inquiry clearly suggests an unwelcome approach......I'm sure you receive enough of the resonating communication to offset this kind, allowing you to invest your communication time more efficiently.
Wow, what a good response from @beaubliss. Things I would have said myself if I could have thought of them.
I do believe some men can be educated and mentored and have put a lot of effort into doing that here. But when I am busy or don't feel the guy can be educated then I just don't respond. I definitely agree with beau's comment that blocking or assuming and reporting does distract me from a preferred way of being and I don't do it. But that is just me.
