I think one should do everything to avoid underage and coercion. This means checking as much as possible but also sadly trusting the agencies/indies one chooses to see…
Still I don’t think it is time to stop all activities altogether. Consensual, honest situations can’t be at the top of the list for police.
Has anyone noticed agency providers seem less “fully booked” than before?
I am more worried about having the wool pulled over my eyes, so to speak, at traditional AMP, in terms of the age and coercion aspect, than I am at the agencies.
I did use one of the more popular agencies recently, and I noticed this.
The texting between the client and the booker is minimal at best, like the cold shoulder you would get from an uninterested woman in public when approached. There was no reminder of the cost for the hour, as was always previously done. So no talk of money. There was also no response after the session when I thanked the booker. There was a long delay between my original text of about an hour, until I received a reply from the booker.
I will reevaluate based on that experience whether I wish to move forward with agencies, as I believe it sheds light on the booker/agency end and puts up my guard.
Very good question, Flabert.
