There's also the fabulousely poetic "anyone tried her?", my favourite
Since were on the subject of merbposting, can someone explain how a thread or Ad becomes a "sticky thread" ?
Is it just one that people view frequently ?
In which case on independent Ads page only Shantie & April Dyson (& kat when it was up) met the threshold...

Because they paid for this top placement.
Everyone in my life knows what I do, so no one can hold this over my head.
Everyone I know, knows what I do. I'm to open and honest to try hiding it from people. Even my boss and co-workers at my civi job know. Who's left to tell.
I would be too stressed out if I were trying to hide it.
It problably be. I decided when I started this that my people should know, and most people I meet when I feel the situation allows it. I couldn't do any different!
But I still have to hide it from time to time, I am not open to my bank, for instance. That is heavy enough so lying to everyone, all the time? I just can't imagine.
My family and friends know what I do. What makes me more nervous is clients recognizing me elsewhere. When I first started I would receive intimidating emails by guys who said they saw me in certain places. It was really creepy. Also someone who tried to match with me on a dating app years ago had tried to book me around that time. It's really uncomfortable. I think the scariest thing that happened in that regard was when a friend's abusive ex boyfriend tried to book me, hiding his identity. For some reason, that type of thing hasn't happened in a long time.
People at your job don't know what you're doing for a living?
If I tried to have a civilian job in many fields, I would not pass the background check or I would get fired very fast. I made a decision to be face out a long time ago, I regret it sometimes, but I won't go back. Your face isn't somewhere on the internet as a client, and I've never heard of someone getting fired for hiring sex workers in Montreal. Some clients told me they gossiped about who they saw with their coworkers, or ''I was recommended by a colleague''.
Sure I'm lucky that I wasn't disowned by my family and friends for what I do, but it did affect how they perceive me, and it does affect how new people I meet look at me. They think I am not the same person as before, even if I am.. and new people only see this about me. A lot of people judge, and say hurtful things at times or sexualize me without my consent. I assume that choice but it can be disheartening sometimes.
The advantage is that I am not living a lie, and I can advocate for myself.

Yeah people often notice slackers and wonder what they do when they are supposed to be working lol.
Funnily enough, I don't have face pics but I really don't care about being outed. My family and friends know what I do, I share lingerie photos (face out) on my real Instagram etc. The only reason I don't show my face is because I'm self conscious (about my looks not my job, lol) and because I don't want yet another thing to have to think about during photoshoots. I can take a photo with a funny/blurry etc face and still use it to advertise if the body looks good.
I'm more worried about someone outing my real identity on merb than I am about someone outing my escort persona to the people who know me in real life. I know my people and I have no shame, but I don't know most merb members or their intentions.
But that is not likely to happen since I don't use my actual legal name anywhere online
I have seen you and I think you are really pretty ❤️
I have seen you... I can't hide what I think, it shows visibly on my face, and as someone who struggles to read peoples faces, even I can tell from the look on my face what I think of you. HOT
and such a sweety.We are the most critical of ourselves.
OMG the number of photos that I could have used and enjoyed if I were face-out. The look on my face is the #1 reason I delete almost every photo of myself. I focus so much on how everything else looks, I forget to smile or relax my face, or my eyes look closed, or I realize after I have no makeup on. Often I don't think about makeup, I don't wear it normally.
It makes me self-conscious when I see myself played back on video. I keep seeing all the involuntary facial reactions (grimacing face tick I make when I'm focussed) it kills the mood for me while editing. I tell myself anyone who is going to like my content will just have to accept that's who/how I am.

I relate to what you're all saying. I think both of you are gorgeous honestly.

I didn't like my body at the time. But I do feel self conscious about all the pictures I post and I feel overly exposed

It's why I share my face too. I can't read eyes, but apparently everyone else can, and sees something that draws them in. Even if I only see a pretty shape.
The number of times I have been told it was my eyes that sold it for them. That my eyes told them everything they needed to know, to want to book me.
I didn't think, and still am not sure, anyone would be interested unless they got to see my face too. I couldn't picture standing out, in the crowd of beautiful escorts, if they didn't see my face too.
Especially since my body was not actually being shown off in a sexual manner from 2002-2022 online. I was simply a mom for those years. Nothing risqué.
