Question regarding requests/questions while booking

[Grimnul]

So, I was talking to a buddy of mine the other day, and I was trying to explain how Canada’s rather labyrinthine laws work in regards to sex work, and I was having some difficulty answering some of his questions, and I kind of realized, I don’t actually know how some of this stuff works, myself.

My question is this: when booking with an agency, what are you and are you not allowed to ask about/request? Like, obviously, specifics about sexual services are out, because officially, agencies do not offer sexual services since that would be illegal. However, what about outfit requests? Are you allowed to request the lady wear a certain type of lingerie, for example? Wouldn’t that sort of imply sexual service? Like, if you’re not going to have sex with her (and, of course, I’m not *wink wink*, because that would be illegal), why do you want her to wear sexy lingerie, right? It seems like most of the major agencies have sections on their booking forms for outfit requests, but can you request lingerie, or is that just for what clothes you’d like her to wear?

Also, does medium matter? Are there certain things you can discuss through email that you can’t discuss over the phone or vice-versa? Are there other avenues I’m not aware of where you are able to discuss specific services? Like, if I was looking to book a girl from an agency, but I wanted, say, DATY, and I can’t find any reviews for the lady in question, is there any way I can legally ask about that, or do I just have to roll the dice and hope she’s ok with it?

This is all so much simpler in Europe. I can just flat-out ask agencies I’m booking with for exactly what I want.

Thanks.

Unless you're a very strait-laced person, you can ask anything you want. There's almost no danger that you're talking to a cop, or to anyone who will get you busted. Do your TERBwork and only talk to established Indies and Agencies. Just don't make the deal a matter of sexual services. They have to be much more careful that you are not a cop, than you need to be about them.

As for communication media, someone would have to actually get a JP to sign a wiretap order to use the evidence in a phone conversation against anyone. E-mails and texts leave records, but again there are legal hoops required to get at them.

On the matter of specifics: innuendo, inference and implication, not to mention <nudge> <nudge> is what makes us human. When you're booking your date with Saphronia, ask the agency to suggest someone else, if she wouldn't be happy with your plans for dinner at the Y.

Geez, I'm old. I remember when DATY was a euphemism.

So then, can you make lingerie requests when you book with an agency? I haven’t had a chance to see any SPs here yet due to some health issues so I’m not quite sure how things here work. Come to think of it, while I’m at it, I’ve heard that some agencies may stop contact if you ask about certain things. Will making lingerie requests result in problems with the agency? In this scenario, I’d be less worried about legal issues and more about having trouble with the agency.

I've never had an issue.

Cool, thanks. All this stuff just kinda twists your brain into knots trying to make sense of it, doesn’t it? Great bill, C-36.

The law is irrelevant - what matters is what the police choose to enforce within the jurisdiction you are in. Toronto cops focus mainly on sex. Trafficking, underage, and street walkers. They don't give a shit about reputable agencies. Besides, the Nordic model that the conservatives implemented makes no sense and I'm sure cops aren't even sure how to enforce the new laws.

Use your words: "May I make a wardrobe request?" is something you could say. Similarly, "Can we discuss services?" will get you a yes or no answer and go from there.
