Etiquette

I’m finding that guys in Texas overall seem to want a “menu” and price. I’m trying to be polite about it but I just thought it is a courtesy not to do this. Not a restaurant so no “menu”. Is this not inappropriate in this area?
Ladies and gents, I appreciate feedback.

Do you buy anything without knowing what the price is and what it does and doesnt do? At some point you have to give that info.. Seems like a sore subject with you! So sorry

Many people spend some time with Yelp or TripAdvisor to get an idea of the quality, price and service of the restaurant and the house specialties, so for them it shouldn't be an issue whether or not they can find a menu beforehand.

Winn Dixie's got a good point if the restaurant doesn't have a decent number of reviews.

I'm a transplant, but I would say just from what I'm used to dealing with, it's nice to have a going rate up front, plus knowing if there are certain things that are an upcharge (this in particular varies tremendously from p2p).

Also, I personally like to know what sort of things you like or other things that are hard stops. I know some women who want you to pull their hair, I know others who will literally throw a punch at you if you try it.

A great example I remember from when I was in Chicago was the big thread on TER's Chicago forum about what is included in GFE vs PSE, none of the ladies involved could really nail it down.

I guess the point is, the more information that can be safely given up front can help avoid awkward situations during the meeting.

I feel your frustrations sweetie. Many of the top tier ladies in this area were also very frustrated that guys were comparing them to a fast food menu. That said, once they accepted my management offer they never had to deal with that again. Perhaps you should consider the same hun. Trust me.

The information is there. Reviews, website...no ipselling . Is this usually an issue in Texas?

[Katerina Nash]

I don’t know how the ladies deal with all these Fucktard’s. There are plenty of gentlemen in Texas but some eccie members seem very entitled and disrespectful. Moving on lol

Austin is a fast-growing metropolitan area, so we get a lot of transplants. The older crowd knows that research is your friend and discretion is key.

Asking for a menu upfront is kind of indiscreet. It's up to you whether that's a showstopper and whether to stick to your business plan. Everyone's risk tolerance is different.

Yeah, a quick Google search turns up a web site with appropriate gifts for your time. And info here on eccie.net shows what activities you like behind closed doors in your private life. If somebody's too clueless to figure that out I guess you could point him towards the web sites when you talk.

Unlikely, but maybe you were the object of a LE sting.

Thanks guys. I got a pm informing me I should advertise no bb! Seriously? Disgusting

[Katerina Nash]

Worthlessman informed me that bareback is offered regularly in Austin. Nice to know.

[Katerina Nash]

I’m sorry to be bitter I’ve just never had this much of an issue visiting a new city.

[winn dixie]

Having public meltdowns wont help either

Maybe the other Texans are too brave? Discussing or texting acts is a good way to popped if contacting the wrong folks.
