Just curious. Does anyone have a sense of how common it is for clients to purchase gifts for MAs/SPs? From time to time, I see Tweets from MAs/SPs requesting clients to buy or help them buy something.

I’ve seen a lot of requests for gift cards, Amazon lists, GoFundMe campaigns and plain requests for cash. I am sure there wouldn’t be such general requests unless it’s been successful in the past for them. Personally I don’t contribute. I’m not made of money and every penny I spend in this hobby is hard earned and cannot be sustained without doing a lot of research. Maybe others who are better off can earn the brownie points?

Agree. There are many different marketing strategies out there. I'm sure it works for some and good for them 🙂 I don't partake.

I get gifts maybe 5 times out of 10 but usually to those I've met more than a few times.

Totally a personal decision, but give one because you want to not because you think you have to.

Yea, and gift can be anything from a coffee, snack, flowers to whatever one is comfortable with. Doesn't have to be anything expensive.
It's just an enhancement to the vibe overall.

This seems to be the norm right now ladies asking for gifts due to lack of money because of covid. Some ladies are even requesting clients pay for future bookings.

I wonder if a hobbyists were to tweet laid off due covid, struggling to pay bills. Looking for a swer who would allow a session now for pay later.

What kind of reaction from swer, do you guys think he would receive?

Coffee, snacks or flowers are thoughtful tokens but I've seen requests for winter coats or laptops!

Do what you feel comfortable with. Some do, some alway do, some never do, some feel that repeating is enough of a tip. Those who do feel they are being generous and those who don't feel clients are wasting their money if they tip. It's an individual choice, and there's no right or wrong.

Goes to show that gifts can be any sizes. It's up to you to decide what you want to and is comfortable enough to get as gift(s).
If you are able to fulfill those request than that is good for you but it is no problem if I or anyone else aren't able to gift that.

The choice is our own to decide as no one is forcing it on us.

I would give a gift to someone I’ve seen a couple of times if the service was good. When i go to a ma club and its 200 for the hour
I usually give them 300.00 if its good. I don’t tell them i am going to tip them that much i just do it.
Should i tell them 1st and hopefully get a bit more out of the session if they think 100.00 is a good tip.
Cheers

I’ve bought more than my share of gifts for SP’s.
Sometimes it very appreciated and the lady is happy and that makes for a wonderful session. But I found some kept on asking for more and more and I had to cut them off. That really ruins a good thing.
Last year I bought a few small gifts, mostly toys which were well received. And just before Christmas I bought lingerie (bra panty sets) for two of my favourite lady’s and planned a duo. That didn’t pan out due to schedules, everyone is busy just before Christmas.
I did get to see them each separately for a belated Christmas gift and they we’re both quite happy to see me. :)

I wonder some times who’s baller enough to just gift a lady a $1000 purse or take them on a shopping spree. Must be nice, and I assume it’s a power thing. If the girl gets gifts like that I’m happy for her, but those who flaunt it online makes regular schmoes like me think twice about booking since we can’t live up to that kind of thing.

For myself (and I assume the majority of us), it’s a risk to spend my money in this hobby during a pandemic. The budget is tight due to my work uncertainty as well as the overall risk to my health for even exposing myself to a stranger in an intimate way. The fact she’s seeing others and advertising her availability tells me she’s exposing herself. What I’m trying to say is that we have to really make each session worth it, so using gifts as a screening method makes things a little easier to weed out those I don’t want to see.

I think some forget that their are good people in this world. These good people do exist in the form of clients and providers...IKR, what a shock! Gifts given are not intended to make anyone feel inferior, nor are public thanks for gifts received, and they are not a power thing. Gifts are given by those who can & want to, but their are no obligations, and those who may feel inferior is solely from their own thinking. Those who gift items are mocked by those who don't, again, this feeling of inferiority comes into play when their is nothing to feel inferior about. The notion that these people are prostitutes, uneducated and worthless, therefore are not deserving of any kind gestures is blatant whorephobia.

Gift or don't gift, tip or don't tip, it really doesn't matter. Then again, I suppose judging is human nature.

I don't like requests for gifts. But former regulars, obviously you know what they like, so maybe a Tim's or Starbucks gift card, or some chocolate, or red wine is nice and builds trust. You can usually see remains of what they partake, if you look around the room. If they were asking for gifts, that would be different I think. There is a Kingston lady that started asking for small things like picking up food, and alcohol. I did it once, but then it seemed like she was escalating the requests, so never returned. I'm not even sure I was buying the gifts for her .... there may have been a handler that was getting the food lol. Unless you really know and trust the provider, I would be hesitant to give gifts of any magnitude, it may just be showing up on Marketplace or kijiji the next day.
