Some Ladies Thoughts

I have taken some time away to talk to ladies I know from different brothels and many are disappointed in the talk and seeming rush to open and if the price will change rather than what will be the effects on us and if we get sick. We do not have insurance like most customers, and our job puts us in extremely close proximity to others. This could really be devastating for some of us. We could carry it home and infect loved ones. Some ladies have kids and this new variant that is deadly to children is very worrying to many ladies. This is disheartening. This is much more prevalent on the other board. It may upset people that I said that but it's not my concern what they or others think right now.
I am happy to see so many diffrrent posts here and the concern for us. It is okay to discuss opening but posts about other things helps take our minds off us these worries. It is up to you to decide. Thank you for taking time to be here and passing the time with us.
Many of the ladies appreciate it.

Hi Alexa. You are absolutely correct to feel no regrets in turning down complete low-ballers! However, pretty much everything else you have said works both ways in these times. This was discussed recently on the other forum. I think it was Hiking Guy who made the point that mongers have similar expenses just to get to Nevada. I'll be driving almost 2,000km just to get to Elko. Before that, I had to fly from the UK. I never once thought to mention that in negotiations, simply because it is none of ladies' concern that I had to incur costs to get there. Why should I expect a reduced price party because of that? I was often over $2,000 in the hole before I even set foot in a house with airfare, hotels, car rental etc.
When all is said and done, this whole thing has made us all realize that we are going through this together. There will be factors pulling ladies and mongers in different directions - ladies will be wanting to recoup lost revenue and many mongers will have reduced funds due to layoffs, furloughs or reduced hours. Hopefully common sense will prevail and there will be some mutually acceptable middle ground, especially if the same range of activities can no longer be offered.
Having spoken to a couple of close-friend mongers, we are leaning towards sticking with the ladies we know when the houses reopen, at least for a while. Partly because we miss them
And partly because it is a known quantity for both parties, so there may be a little latitude in terms of activities or pricing. Even if there isn't, having partied with them before, I know that the party will be awesome, even if activities are restricted due to COVID.
Thank you for sharing this, I always assume people are local unless they specifically mention.
We will all have each other to comfort after this is all over. :-*

I thought this thread was suppose to be about health and safety. How the hell did it turn into another pricing thread? :o

Looks like GFE may be dead or altered. Mandatory temperature checks, showers, and , masks. The madam posted one strike you’re out (assuming banned).

I can understand that position though it might not be met with overwhelming applause.
Say someone in a house tests positive when you are there. Proper procedures would call for contact tracing. Do clients want to be contact traced? Should they be in the interest of public health?

I was thinking the same thing. Although, some customers pay with cash and they may not use their real name (or just a first name) when they visit the brothels so they don't leave a paper or electronic trail. It would be pretty difficult for health officials to track them down, unless the city/county mandates that the brothels have their customers private contact info on file. Needless to say, that might keep some folks from visiting.

What frightens me the most about the virus is that a person can carry it and infect others without showing symptoms him or herself. So while taking a person's temperature might weed out people who are obviously sick, how about the person who shows no symptoms yet can still infect others?

Also, regarding the tests, they are not totally reliable; they sometimes show false negatives, meaning it shows you do not have the virus, but you actually do. Plus, I could get one that truthfully says I do not have the virus but then I get the virus the very next day.
What we need and are hoping comes sooner or later, is a vaccine. I don't know why they take so much time to develop, but they do. I'm sure every developed country in the world is working on it.Even then, you don't know for sure, if they're anything like the flu vaccine, they won't be 100% effective. But it's our best hope.

Amazing what we can get done when we are all worried. I mean who cares about cancer.
Too bad all the labs that are dropping everything to work on this can't do the same for cancer.

So true.. and sad. The market was up big time on Monday on news vaccine trial went extremely well. It’s looking like we might have a vaccine by January. Our next trip isn’t until March at the earliest.
Funny thing on the masks... Mrs didn’t want to kiss anyone except the Mr on our first trip. Mr only really kissed Santana
. She’s kissed a girl in the past but, nervous about germs and mono LOL. So, kissing or not she will be okay. She was going to try kissing on the next trip with mouthwash before covid ;D

Sad, but true. And a reasonable suspicion. Cancer "treatment" (much like treatment for diabetes) is a multi-trillion dollar industry... so why would any of the corporate bigwigs behind the scenes have incentive to fund the creation of a cure? Obviously if they themselves get cancer, but clearly that's a chance they're willing to take!

There is more "business in medicine" than "medicine in medicine".
There is more "politics in medicine" than "medicine in medicine".

Yep. You nailed it. Working for years at "For-Profit" medical facilities has opened my eyes... hell, even non-profit facilities don't have their hands clean, either!
