Some of the posts on this thread make me cringe...
I think that metoo4 and Mod 11 hit it righ on the nail. The women we deal with are not merchandise. They are human beings. As such, you have to deal with the entire package when you hire one: emotions, feelings, temperament, moods are part of what you hire.
If you actually hire and manage employees (or have done it), you know what I am talking about. Even the very best employees can have bad days, bad weeks, or a bad year even. In real life, dealing with someone you hire requires you to deal with the whole package.
I am not excusing bad, neglectful or inconsiderate service. Not at all.
BlondeBabe is not saying no reviews should be written. As a proud merbist, I want to read and write reviews. But there is a good way to say things and there is a bad way. Being considerate and respectful is the good way. I know SPs find too many reviews vulgar (some because of the acronyms, some because of the ratings, some both). Makes them reluctant to even log in to read the reviews - if they do not read the reviews, there is no "constructive criticism".
Finally, a note about costs. A couple of you mentionned that hiring a SP can be relatively costly. Valid point. But consider that, as in so many things, rarity creates value. Go to any serious art or collectable auction, and you will see this truth in action (rarity = value; more rare = even more value). What percentage of women out there would agree to let you touch their body in the ways the average SP does?? Question asked and answered, isn't it?
Buyer's remorse exists everywhere, especially when one is talking about high dollar investments. I've seen serious collectors regret paying very high prices for pieces that they find less than interesting. BUT the serious collector/hobbyist also knows that the occasional disappointment is more than compensated by the day-to-day pleasure associated with their hobby.
