You’re Not Her

More and more ladies in sex work are using stock photos or stealing photos from others in their advertisements .

Why do women not use real photos of themselves? Well, for a variety of reasons.

  1. Some women have multiple identities, they can wear a wig for one persona and then be themselves, but when it comes to more than one alter, then they have to use photography that is dramatically similar to them.
  2. The women is running a scam, usually a snatch and grab situation with a pimp. Most often, these are the women who steal your photos.
  3. They are not confidant enough to show themselves
  4. They are cheap. There are many providers that have a pretty standard body type for their race and they can get away with stock photos, all they do is crop or blur the face. Often men don’t notice. But if you look closely, you will notice variation in breast size, thighs and but shape.

Ladies, rule number one in adult work is to represent yourself as YOUR SELF. Men will know you are not the girl in the photo. It is not only disrespectful to the client, but it is deceptive and a let down. Men will not return, and pretty soon, someone is will call you on it (usually in an open forum). That can be embarrassing and really hurt your business.

Also, you must remember, there are women who all they do is troll sites looking for things like that. Why? Because they have nothing better to do, and they are malicious. Some providers are so jealous of other women that they become obsessed with creating havoc or hurting the woman they are jealous of in any way they can. For every one friendly provider in this industry, there are two that will tear your throat out if they think it will get them more business and put the spotlight on them.

Does it put the spotlight on them? Yes, but not in the positive ways they think. While some may be grateful to know so and so is a fake, the person who outed her will have a reputation for causing drama and a a person (whether male or female)will not want to see her or be associated with that person.

Honesty gets your clients.

Discretion and dignity bring them back.

Openness and being genuine keep them yours.
