Rant
Hello everyone, was just musing on my experience of having my new website up for a week and a half, and not too happy about a few things, so I thought I'd write here for what it's worth. Maybe educate a few quasi-men!Astonishingly, perhaps, I've not seen anyone as a result of the website. I'm not so bothered about it financially, and I've had fun creating it at least, but I'm quite appalled at some of the effects of the site.
First, I'd like to say that at least one guy sounded just lovely. In fact the first caller sounded perhaps the best. He wanted to come to my home, however, and that's not on offer.
The rest of them, well... One or two nice-sounding ones, but generally - what a waste of space! Men who call up and make tentative arrangements, are supposed to follow through and e-mail and pay their deposit, and then it doesn't happen. What, they don't like paying a deposit? Like I'm supposed to take time to get ready and go out on a spurious request? (No, we hadn't got to the hotel reservation stage, obviously - that comes after the deposit.) I'm annoyed at these people who are just looking for free female attention, otherwise known as vampires. Still looking for a good adult phone line for people who want to talk. It's all a question of what's appropriate.
Talking of what's appropriate, I make it very clear no-one is to call me and talk inappropriately. Yet they try. How moronic. There are women who don't mind talking about sexual things on the phone, I'm not one of them, why do males who would like to be thought of as men do this? My rule of thumb is, if you wouldn't like someone talking to your mother like that, don't talk to me like that. Worse than the insult to me is the lack of respect you show yourself. A male without integrity is not a man.
There are banners on my site for sex sites, and there is a phone number on my website to make an appointment with me - via talking to me or my assistant. Those things do not make it right to talk to me with disrespect. Men who are disrespectful to escorts think they get away scot free, but there is always a price in life for being a disrespectful idiot. You always pay for it - but maybe males like that are too stupid to see what possibilities they kill, and to be conscious of the weakening of their own quality of life. Never mind someone they inspire to take revenge...
The only reason I'm not into revenge any more is because of my own spiritual well-being.
OK I'm going, I do hope this is read by a few idiots. And if a gentleman should read it - well, you wouldn't believe the garbage most women have to deflect from males, whether they're escorts or not. You can see our point.
Kisses to good people!

As for the deposit - I think there are pros and cons to such a policy. It's about give and take, following your sixth sense. I certainly appreciate that some clients are wary about paying a deposit and thereore don't request a deposit unless it's for what appears to be a "dubious" booking, a considerable distance OR a considerable length of time... Again, personally speaking, I think a carte blanche policy towards deposits is not appropriate or necessary.
Aren't you a newbie??? So your comment about 'appropriate' isn't exactly based on experience.
But your other comments are worth comment, particularly because they are typical of grey, unclear thinking that leads to abuse.
1. My site is not an 'upscale escort' site. I'm quite conscious of that. That doesn't mean I'm not 'upscale escort' quality. It's simply a site designed to promote faster communication.
2. As I wrote to Anika Mae, if people are allegedly booking my time a week ahead or for further afield, like Heathrow or London, I'd be mad to set off on voice alone. That's a very expensive way to go, and if this is your intention, I think you'll learn to do differently. But as a male, you probably get different behaviours - and volume of behaviours - anyway.
3. Adult sex sites on my site aren't an 'encouragement' for seedier elements to contact me - they're their EXCUSE. That distinction is important, and with all relevant respect I think it's the fact that you're a male, and a statement of your own values, that you would think that behaviour excusable. It's the 'She was asking for it.' argument.
4. The sex site are on my site should I find that I don't want to meet anyone who contacts me. They will pay for the site.
5. The site does not promote ME. It promotes Airport Amy, which is just a part of who I am. Don't identify with the job too much, it's not good for you. If your identity begins and ends with this business that's a dangerous position to be in. But you're a male, and the usual wisdom for escorts does not I feel apply to you. You're as subject to as much self-delusion, if not more, as the next male.
I prefer men.
Specifically: this blog is labeled "Airport Amy". Berating and belittling him because he refered to "Airport Amy" as "you" is rather over the top.
Personally I'm one of many women who are fed up of males co-opting any areas of power that women have.
I'm also one of the many women, including escorts, who are fed up tolerating such males who infiltrate areas such as escort sites, most particularly the transvestites. As far as I'm concerned Grant shouldn't be on this escort blog site.
You may desire to be politically correct - which for a woman reads overly tolerant - Anika Mae, but supporting a male like that doesn't do you any favours. You're overlooking your own interests as a woman and proposing I have anger at males is a very anti-female statement to make. And anti me, of course.
Suck up to males if you will, it's your funeral. I hope you learn to be more discriminating.
I'm truly sorry I for having made a contribution to your blog, I wont make the same mistake again. Sorry.
Grant was only making comments as to why he thought you were getting problems with it, why air your views if you dont want comments back?
And no I dont suck up to any males, but I will defend anyone male or female. What is wrong with Grant "infiltrating" escort and blog sites?! I like to read a mixture of male and female blogs, and look forward to them all.
Im afraid im not politcally correct, im not a feminist either but each to their own. I expect you will say Im "anti you" as well, Im not anti anyone, Rupert Bear could have written this and I would still have answered the same!
Taking deposits is your personal choice. A lot of my work comes from the airports too, I personally dont require a deposit, and fortunately I have not had a problem, they phone when they arrive, I phone as Im leaving for room number etc, and phone the hotel to check their booking and away I go.
I do think some men find it worrying paying a deposit but can understand anyone who wants to do it.
I wish you well.

You're entitled to your opinions, but I find your "us vs. them" attitude disturbing. You appear to be implying feminism, but I take it you don't subscribe to one of the brands that persues equality.
My impression that you're angry at males was based entirely on the content and tone of the post I was responding to. You say it is a general policy of intolerance, so I stand corrected.
Must say I had the same type of problems with my site when it was up new, just took some tweaking to get it to attract the right sort of clients I wanted. Managed to pin the pornier type callers down to a few pornier directory sites that I had adverts on that seamed to attract a certain type of client... that in turn attracted them to my site for me to deal with all the wanker down the phone and phantom booker nonsense
Also found the nudeier the pics or any association with the porn industry only seamed to scare off the vanilla type, of normal reliable clients I wanted!
Cant really blame you for the rant as I did have the frustrating feeling at first .Although I must say most directories and warning sites do warn clients of sites and escorts that can take deposits and run off with the money ...which is probably the main reason for some trepidation on their part, as check and deposit scams are rife at the moment..
I am sorry to say but normally everyone I know, does wait to do a hotel reservation check before they even consider it a real booking, let alone take a deposit which is where you are probably hitting your head against a brick wall… for the competition of the huge majority of escorts who don’t take deposits and do just fine with a phone call conformation to the room and hotel to check....
...and I really don’t mean to be a wet blanket but have you ever considered, that your name is very similar to the US Famous Porn Star Prostitute, that works in the Bunny Ranch In Nevada called Airforce Amy?...
.....at first, with a quick glance at your name even I thought you where her! now over in the UK and automatically thought ahh…yes...porn star escort when I took a look and saw the xxx butons and porn links closed your site without going further! Sorry darlin…
Take care and good luck look forward to more ranting ,Eleanor
Hi Eleanor, good to hear from you, do you have a website?
No, I hadn't thought of the porn aspect of Airforce Amy. Oh well!
Re. deposits - yes, if a guy's booked in he seems legit etc, but what I mentioned a couple of times was that I'm getting people calling up and wanting (or saying they want to) book a week or two ahead, and no way can I promise to be there/take them seriously if they don't leave a deposit. You know what I mean?
And I hadn't heard about escorts stealing deposits, but I wonder how much this is a disinformation story - no, not by you - but really, how often do escorts take deposits at all? Yet how often are escorts messed around? And no restaurant or hotel would put up with it, so why should we? I can't possibly function on some voice trying to book me a week ahead without a deposit. I keep my word, but I have noticed a lot of people don't.
Anyhow to the point of the heading above - escortwatch.com - would just like attention to go to this, it's setting a great example as a website devoted to the security of those in the escort world. It's in Ireland, I don't know of any similar site here, but would like to see one. And no, I'm not going to create it.
Bon soir. x
I could only work and take up to a weeks bookings in advance myself because of real work, but I pencil the date in and then have the client then confirm on the day.If it fell through did have a back up list of standby clients to inform or would wait for a call to fill the lost appointment..worked too well..eeek.
As for the deposits not all that set business up are escorts....found most escorts normaly only ask for a deposit to cover travel expencise if too far...messing us around seams to come with the life ,but have never had a confirmed and checked booking from a hotel that fell through?.
Chin up Darlin...
It was taken off line on Tuesday due to a sustained DDOS attack (details provided on a forum thread on punterlink.com). It will be back in the next week or so when we have firewalled it away from our commercial sites.
Escortwatch.org is provided, hosted and maintained for free by us for the benefit of the escort community, and received over 3000 visitors a day.
I have been stood up by escorts, sworn at, had abusive emails, had escorts and escort agencies pester me on my mobile phone, had my email address and phone number sold by some escort, met "escorts" that turned out to be street-girls, gone to "private apartments" that turned out to be brothels, met girls that were on drugs, met girls that had been abused, met girls that had been recently beaten up and most frequently of all visited girls that had mis-advertised themselves so severely that I was of the opinion that they should have been paying me for the experience rather than the other way around.
Its a nasty, unpleasant, unregulated business on both sides so it is hardly surprising that punters and escorts start developing bad attitudes. Thankfully there are some nice girls out there or frankly I just wouldn't bother. As they are nice to me I keep coming back again and again and make sure I am nice to them - I guess that is the secret.
If the people that run this site tell me they don't want men posting here then that's fine by me, but my blogs get a lot of readers, no-one has complained about anything I have written and some people have sent me private messages asking me for help and advice based on what I have written, so I feel I am doing something useful.
Interesting points Ryan, sounds scarey. Yet it's a lot more accepted in America for girls to have a lot more security with clients than they appear to do here; deposits are more frequent, plus the clients have to have security cheques a lot more often. That makes sense to me.
