Can you explain how you used the redbook site? Did you find sex workers through paid ads or classifieds? Did you rely on reviews of other customers? If you had a bad experience or if the services weren't as described, did you use redbook to resolve the dispute? Have you hired sexual services the old-fashioned way, at a brothel, massage parlor, or by picking up someone on the street? If so, how would you compare to the redbook experience? Was there any indication that the sex workers you met were trafficked, or that they were 100% independent? Did you participate in redbook discussions on health, legal or political matters, or were you primarily interested in finding suitable partners? Thanks for posting here, and for answering questions!

I'll answer for now. I found sex workers through advertisement and reviews on related sites. Many people enter and leave the industry frequently, and recent ads and reviews not only demonstrate good services, but that the worker is still active in the industry. Personally, I find there isn't much point in trying to resolve the sort of dispute that normally comes up at this level of the industry. At worst, you may post a review or an alert about what happened. If you found that you weren't compatible with somebody or didn't like how they do business, better to just write it off and move on, rather than try to get a refund or something. I have never used any of the more old-fashioned ways of doing business. I am much more interested in seeing truly independent ladies for more extended appointments involving genuine conversation, and I don't feel that this happens in the lower tiers of the industry. I have never seen any indications that anybody I have seen was being trafficked or otherwise involved in the industry against their will. If I did, I wouldn't see them at all. Most that I have seen have told fairly detailed stories about how they got involved. I suppose it isn't impossible that some women I have seen have been coerced in some way and have been very good at concealing it, but with the level of privacy that we both need, it seems pointless to try to verify anything further. I have occasionally participated in industry forum discussions on related topics, but I mostly try to avoid getting involved in any of the sort of drama and involved interaction that tends to happen on forums of any type.

I would typically find escorts at the last minute, so I can't speak for what it's like to plan ahead. I'd first search the classifieds for women offering incall (I go to their place, usually a hotel) in San Francisco. Next, I scroll through the ads, only reading ads that have reviews & pictures, looking for the right escort at the right price. When I find an ad the looms promising, I double check the reviews to make sure they aren't horrible, and I also use Google to search for fake images. If everything looks good, I try to contact the escort to book an appointment. I never wrote reviews on myredbook. When I visited Australia a few years ago, I visited a legal brothel. All of my of purchases for sexual services were started online. Purchasing sex in Australia was pretty interesting, but I that was the novelty of the legality of the purchase. I am pretty sure most sex workers were independent, but I have no way of verifying this. I did not participate in discussions on myredbook. You are welcome!
