Some History on GFE:
I was one of the first to use the term GFE back in the days of 300 baud dial-up packet readers before websites, but just the old alt.sex.prostitution "Usenet" group. It had nothing to do with sex. It was more a human connection of intimacy, even if just for an hour with an escort - like I describe on my lovetouch.info site.
However, in later decades it got perverted to be related to specific sex acts (and illegal in the US) or unsafe sex which I would never indulge in.
I know I am odd, but I have always enjoyed more sensual, caring intimacy, openness, and personality but hard to find these days in reviews that are just about sex acts. I am odd and unusual I realize; I have never even liked oral. When I give, I feel I need a snorkel. Maybe just not trained well, but can't teach this old dog new tricks, and I enjoy sensual sexuality in different ways. And for the last few decades, in Canada vs. the US.
While on the old ways- amazing, all that is done by text these days. Back a few decades many Phoenix companions insisted on hearing the potential customer on the phone, talking to him a little bit to get a feel of how comfortable she felt with him. This was just considered good screening, not perfect, but often they could detect a jerk they didn't want to have as a client.
Obviously, in the US, no money can be discussed related to a sex act, only companionship; nude is ok. (Phoenix was ground zero, and I followed many court cases) and how dumb many guys are even if the fake escort is a cop and makes it clear she is under age 18 - a minor, and they still show up and are busted for serious child prostitution charges. These stings are now are frequent in many US cities.
Slightly topic but in another thread (where it was also off the original topic) Prettyyy.Princess had a great discussion about bad clients and how it is hard to know about them.
In Phoenix, in the old days, many escorts would never meet a new client without a reference of another escort or "special procedures" if a prospect didn't have a referral. Escorts would contact each other to vouch for clients. This was more for legal risks, with our lots of stings, and for felonies, if assisted in any way (which closed down all our local boards) Agencies, and their workers faced up to 80 years in prison as participants in a criminal enterprise, but the same would seem to be a way to protect against bad clients in Canada.
