Escort agency

Encyclopedia : E : ES : ESC : Escort agency


Escort agencies in theory exist to supply attractive and well-mannered escorts. The escort is sent to an address (house or hotel).

In other cases, so-called "escort agencies" are booking agencies for prostitution. The reason for making the distinction is a legal one; since prostitution laws often forbid taking payment for sex, the escort seeks to avoid this by having the client pay for his or her company and then claiming that any sex that happens was simply a spontaneous reaction to a client they happened to find attractive-- a relationship that would legally be no different from a secretary who sleeps with her boss.

This means that, at least in theory, a client may pay for an escort who will then refuse him sex because she or he finds the client unattractive. Advertisements for escort agencies often skirt this legal line, seeking to establish the legal position whilst simultaneously implying to clients that they are not especially choosy in their preferences.

Escort agencies are very aware of the legal issues behind the services they offer. Agencies claiming to be legitimate generally operate like customer service businesses, taking great care not to intimidate a new customer, who may feel apprehensive about using the service.
