I haven't been involved in pro sessions for 20 years now (I was surprised to hear Pandora's Box still was around, was a classy place when I was into doing pro sessions), but from what I know from looking around and a couple of pro dommes I still talk to occasionally, it hasn't changed all that much, though there seem to be a lot less pro houses in NYC, and the prices seem not to have gone up much, if at all. Like any other business, there are different levels of service. There used to be places like Belle Du Jour and Leather Ladies in NYC that were 'commercial' houses, that charged about 100/hour. They had pretty large number of women on (and the occasional trans gal), they were relatively decently equipped, the women working there were not necessarily as well trained as other places, but it wasn't bad. Then there was the next step up, houses like Nutcracker suite and Pandoras Box, they were if I remember correctly in the 200/hour range. The difference with those houses was they tended to have women who were fairly well trained and many were lifestyle, they would do a broader range of services,and had a lot of equipment and facilities. They also kept a profile on the customers, so they knew the list of likes/dislikes/limits/hard limits and so forth.... With private providers working out of their house and home, rates ranged as well. The ones on the lower end were not as well equipped, the ones on the upper levels were more experienced, had a name, and also tended to have nice facilities. Yeah, there are ones billing themselves as high end, used to be this blond gal years ago in NYC that charged like 500 an hour, but she was more high end escort (I remember her ads, flaunted having a high IQ, being stunningly beautiful, etc), and I am not surprised that those in porn films and such would charge more, being a 'celebrity' can pay off.....I have heard stories of incredible pro houses where back then the sessions were like 500/hr and up, supposedly had all kinds of incredible equipment, would do all kinds of intense, detailed scenes (not surprisingly, some were rumored to be in Vegas *lol*), where you could have any desire fulfilled (some of which seemed to be on the other side of the law...)..personally I think most of them were fiction, but wouldn't surprise me if places like that existed. Rates in general were based on reputation and how well equipped they were and how good the dommes were. Even then, when the internet was just starting to really explode, word was out there, and someone like the supposed domme the OP mentioned wouldn't last long (and I agree, the OP is either a troll or a wank artist; a domme acting like that would be committing professional suicide, and it makes no sense. Ever domme I have ever been to, low end or high end, always made sure to talk to me about what I was into, and especially about limits (like that I cannot do sensory deprivation, and have other issues relating to claustrophobia), it is just plain common sense. The OP is writing wank fantasy, about the bitch from hell who treats the sub like shit,etc, but that is not the nature of pro dommes, among other things, despite supposedly being 'served', they are providing the service..and no domme is going to stick her finger up the guy's butt like that without a glove...as for the peeing, very few pro dommes IME offered watersports at all, and if they did, they wouldn't do it on their apartment floor, especially if it was carpeted, they would do it in an area with tarps, or in a bath tub or something, and it would have been negotiated (some charge more to do watersports, for one thing). Are there bad dommes? Sure, there are women who think they can hang out their shingle and make a quick buck, there are the escort with whip types, there are ones who just aren't good, but that is true in most professions. Thing is, you don't last long doing that, the word of mouth and internet would kill you, because this is a service business. A lifestyle domme with a bad reputation might have a hard time finding subs, a pro is out of business, fast. The other problem with the OP's story is very few people seeking out a pro would choose the most expensive one first, if they saw rates they wouldn't say "wow, let me go for the woman charging 350", they would see the range and probably choose someone in the middle.....plus I also would guess that a new sub might feel more comfortable at a pro house, rather than a solo operator, simply on the assumption a pro house is out there, more public, and therefore won't be the scary situation of a one on one with someone with no one else around.....
