Porn and Escorting

I was talking the other day to my friends Steve and Ke'. Steve was talking about the development of pornography for the 35 or so years that he has been a consumer of it and how depictions that were rare or just unavailable, if not unimaginable back when he was in high school are now the baseline. Back in the day, he said, porn in magazines was pretty much titty shots and bare asses until hustler and penthouse started showing pubic hair. Videos featured man on woman fucking and blow jobs, with a rare anal scene. Things progressed slowly from there until the internet exploded. All of a sudden anybody could find depictions of just about anything, so starting around the mid nineties magazines started showing full penetration, including anal, eventually showing double and triple penetrations and internal cumshots. Video, of course, has always been a little ahead of what you can find in the magazines. Being a dedicated porn connoseur, Steve has welcomed these developments.

Ke' said a similar thing has happened to her. When she started out as an escort, about seven or eight years ago, she decided to dive in with a premium service at a premium price. She offered anal, multiple pops, bbbj, daty - pretty much anything anybody might want, all for a single high price. Her days filled up with guys willing to pay that price without haggling over the details or being disappointed by assuming they were going to get a service not being offered, at least not at the base price. Over the years, though, a number of providers have started offering at least some of those services at their base prices (the exception apparently being anal. All other girls charge a premium for that, as far as Ke' can tell) which are almost always less than what Ke' charges. Some can still get away with charging $300 and up for what Ke' used to get $350/hour for, but she no longer can, because in addition to the competition now offering more, she's now 7 or 8 years older. Now Steve and I appreciate her for the extraordinary fuck she is (not that we've ever had to pay for it from her), but somebody scanning myredbook.com or eros-guide isn't going to know that she'd be worth every penny, so now she has to settle for $150/hh and $250 - $275/hr. She's not complaining; she loves getting paid for what she loves to do, but she does miss the old days.
