Strange request?

[Mable]

I have been Hobbying for some time now. Being in Ottawa I have unfortunately experienced very bad sp's, so much so I almost never Hobby in this town anymore. Usually only when some advertised outside "talent" comes here. Which brings me to a perplexing situation I recently encountered. One of the VERY HIGHLY rated ladies from Toronto recently visited Ottawa. I set up an appointment well in advance. In addition to her forgetting the appointment, she asked me to bring the condoms when we finally did hook up. At that I got turned off and decided not to see her. It has been my experience that whenever an sp asks you to bring the condoms the situation is always bad. After all she is a "pro" and she does not have the tools of the trade? WTF? As well she did screw up on the schedule. But given she is so highly rated I almost broke my rules. Do you think I over-reacted? Would you have taken a chance? By the way she was charging over $300/hr.

Why would an SP who is charging over $300/hr not bring her own condoms ? I think you did the right thing. Always go with your gut instinct.

She may had other reasons for asking you to bring them perhaps she forgot and didn't have time to get them. Touring can be difficult sometimes so I imagine she would have been trying to sort out the serious inquiries from the fake ones. Unfortunately, you may have been lost in the schedule.

Ottawa isn't an easy place to tour.

I understand what you're saying, but I have to agree with the OP that being asked to supply the condoms is a bit of a turn-off.

At $300+/hr you should be receiving professional-level service.

If you bought a new furnace and the installer showed up at your house and asked you if you had some tools he could borrow you'd probably start to worry about his competency no?

I have been asked to bring over condoms so many times from my few regular sp because they either forget or run out of them without notice. It's not a strange thing at all.

She couldn't be as "highly rated" as you've stated without being prepared for the basics of a session. I've never heard of this problem with a $300 an hour SP.

 

[GlavaMan]

I thought the SP's always provided the condoms so they know they have not been 'tampered with'.

Touring is only difficult if you make it difficult. Seriously, this isn't rocket science. Selection of clothes, big jar of lube, and a pallet of condoms. Show up, get naked. This isn't like touring a band or a series of political rallies.

From what I've read in a few band autobiographies this could actually be the same preperation involved

Thanks for the replies. It appears that I'm not alone in my view. Yeah, I don't see any excuse at all. I'm not going give her name as it would likely start a flame war or something. Just wanted to know the general perspective. And Squash is right; go with your gut even though she has received good reviews. Come to think of it I have been with well rated ladies in the past who, to say the least, left something to be desired. But that is another story.
