I was complaining about general rate increases (far in excess of general inflation). That's hardly rate shaming.

And every 5 weeks there’s a new thread about rate increases like people don’t have eyes to see it for themselves ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don’t see the point in complaining about rates other than acknowledging that they have substantially increased.
You can either afford it or not, like everything else in life.
Seeing SP is a luxury not everyone can afford, yes it sucks but everyone makes their own luck in life, and luckily you are in a free country where all things are possible.

I have noticed that many SPs I see raised their rates this year, it was a substantial amount and whether it was an annual rate increase or an increase due to inflation is irrelevant.

It has meant that I see SPs fewer times in a month. I have opted instead to go back to the massage parlours and entertain myself there at a cheaper rate with obviously fewer finishing options.

Two mamasans I know recently told me that business had slowed considerably at their establishments. If it is slowing at their level I would imagine the same trend is occurring at the agencies.

The economy is a factor for sure, but I also think the mood of the country (or countries) isn’t as festive as it once was. It used to be party time in America and Canada. Maybe folks aren’t as sexual or festive? And just perhaps escort quality has regressed a bit, so that’s a factor. Even here in NNJ it doesn’t seem to be as active.

I think you're referring to optimism. People right now just aren't very optimistic about the economy, the world, the environment or their futures/prospects in general. It seems like every other day a major company is downsizing or another restaurant is closing down.

It's crazy to think that just a couple of years ago during the bitcoin/crypto/NFT bubble that everyone was super optimistic and they were spending like crazy on everything including escorts. Prices, during that time, for everything and anything from condos to G wagons didn't seem to matter.

Yes!. Thanks. Hope and optimism are precisely what I was referring to, and those feelings did manifest in fun, festive, and friendly behavior, including in an escort environment.

The mood of the country was more joyful a few years ago for sure. Spending habits were as you suggest. People weren’t as on edge.

But now, walking around NYC and NJ people look dejected (when they look up from their phones). Weird.

Maybe the world will get back to that point and the good times will roll again!

Supply and demand, at any given time there are always more men willing to pay for sex (even if they have to live in their parents basements to afford it) than there are women who are willing to do this type of work.

If times were tough, SP prices would fall.
More young SPs would enter the hobby.

Neither is occurring.
I really hope this will be the case. That's why there was so much pushback when the agencies started raising their prices. IMHO once the price goes up there is no way they will ever come back down. Maybe they keep the prices the same and upcharge for Ubers, reservation fees or incall supplies. But sadly, I don't ever see the prices coming down.
