Interview with Ashley Kensington

• How long have you been working as an escort?
  
  "Fulltime" and non-UTR since November of 2007
   
  
  
• When and how did you become an escort? What motivated you to start doing it? What was your background before this work?
  
  I didn't grow up with the typical hard-core religious beliefs as well as the usual stigma that goes along with recognizing I am a sexual being. I didn't go through the typical feelings of being "bad" when I was exploring the new parts of my body/self as a adolescent.
  
  I believe these beginnings have in part contributed to the reasons I do not feel guilty or wrong because of the choice I've made to be a courtesan. I feel there is a wonderful place in the order of the world for people like myself. I do not think of people as right or wrong, rather similar or different - with the judgment removed.
  
  I have tried to explore myself and my reasons for following my desires down this path and the main motivation for me is to build a network of success and joy around me. In the little time that I have been doing this openly, I have had so many wonderful experiences that I can only think that this IS the right path for me, right now.
   
  
  
• Do you like being an escort? What do you enjoy most in it? What is important and have value for you in it?
  
  I love being me. I enjoy spending valuable time with gentlemen of distinction who enrich my life as well as who allow me to enrich theirs. This career for me is a wonderful medley of variety, spontaneity, passion, learning, and constant personal development. I find that being someone's muse, their oasis in their life, can be incredibly fulfilling for BOTH of us.
  
  
   
  
  
• What don't you like about being an escort?
  
  The preconceived notions of others. I think that most believe that a woman would not choose this profession if she had any other option available. I cannot speak for others, but for me, I have the world as my oyster - I have been a mensa from the time I was 17 (the youngest you can become a member) and have graduated with a double major in biology and chemistry from an accredited US university. I tell you these things because I want you to understand that I am not brainless, witless, unclassed, or otherwise incompetent.
  
  I enjoy the arts, intellectual conversation, and will never stop learning about the world around me. I hate limiting myself to just one thing, so at any one time I may have 3-5 books I'm reading, something I've been researching on the internet, and discussing others (who are more educated) on topics of completely different nature. This is how I thrive.
  
  Being a courtesan allows me to have this in all ways. I get to be close with gentlemen who have attained a level of success few see. They typically are the titans within their industry and I love to learn about their business, their way of life, the way they think. I take these life examples and try to learn from each one. I may not know where that information will help me in life, but none-the-less I know I am far richer than I was before I had met and gotten close with them.
  
  What's not to love?!
   
  
  
• What makes you notable among other providers? What exactly, you believe, you're good at? What makes your service unique? What is your favorite kind of service?
  
  I have been told that I have a wonderful spirit; I can be genuinely interesting and intriguing. I think the majority of gentlemen are not just seeking a physical pleasure, but rather if they could believe it would actually happen, they would be seeking a total experience. Something far greater than our skin cells firing, rather our whole bodies and minds mingling, flirting, exchanging, and frolicing with one another.
  
  I am probably one of the best at being "smart/intelligent". I like to be the brains, the girlfriend you had in college who loved you more than you have ever been loved before/since, and the passionate lover who will make your toes curl. To me this is more than a GFE, this is a total experience, not too far from those magical moments you've had in your life where you TOTALLY connected with someone.
  
  My wish is to make that happen for you and for ME. I do not want to fake anything, if I do not feel a connection is going to happen, that something really magical and almost spiritual is going to happen, I hope you'll allow me to be honest with you and let you know.
   
  
  
• How do you prefer a client to make an appointment? What information is important for you? Is screening required before the appointment?
  
  Please email me. If you are a member of a screening site such as Preferred411 please send me an appointment request thru the site, so that I may confirm you are truly a member.
  
  I most definitely screen - and I'm a real stickler for it too. If you are uncomfortable with this, please contact me only when you are comfortable with revealing who you are. I will not see gentlemen who will not be transparent with me.
  
  I require personal information(full name, employment verification, etc) as well as two provider references that are within the last six months.
   
  
  
• What types of clients you deny to meet? Are there any restrictions?
  
  You will immediately terminate the possibility of time together with crass, vulgar or otherwise disrespectful behavior. As a gentleman of distinction, I do not expect you would ever do this, however I have been surprised, although thankfully on only rare occasions.
   
  
  
• Do you have regular client assignments? How do you choose whom you wish to see on this basis?
  
  Yes - we must meet for a few sessions prior to this type of arrangement. I want to find out what you are like and I would hope you would like to do the same about me. I typically choose people who are punctual, keep their appointments with me, and do not push for "extras" such as talking on the phone for extended periods, hanging around with me after our session is over, guys who really want to be my friend/buddy. If I want to make that leap with a client, I will be the one to initialize a friendship, so please don't ask.
   
  
  
• When you visit a client, what kind of environment do you expect a client to provide?
  
  A 4 star hotel or above, or come to my incall, or last resort, I'll come to you if you have a home in an area of town that I feel is safe and discreet.
   
  
  
• Do you have any particular requirements regarding hygiene? What are the guidelines that your client should follow?
  
  You must have been recently showered, like within the last hour. Please keep yourself trimmed nicely or shaved. Please no heavy cologne/aftershave but mild or light is okay.
   
  
  
• Describe your common HIV/STD prevention procedures. What kind of tests and how often do you pass? Are the test results available upon request?
  
  will discuss upon phone call
   
  
  
• What are your rates?
  
  $400/hr; no 1/2 hours; multiple hour sessions call to discuss; I'm available to travel but we will discuss this as well
   
  
  
• Are there additional charges for "extras"? If so, what are these?
  
  If you desire long conversations onthe phone or quick little notes/texts/emails that let you know someone (me) is thinking about you - we will discuss pricing for the type and extent of procedure.
   
  
  
• What payment options are available? How would you prefer the client to pay?
  
  I prefer cash and if you would like to help me get an online payment system up and running - I would really love you for helping me!
   
  
  
• How would you prefer the money to be given? Please describe step-by-step payment procedure. What guidelines should a client follow to make the payment convenient and risk-free for you.
  
  Place the money in a plain white envelope and if we meet in a public place please place the envelope inside of a gift bag or some other discreet packaging. Then after the initial exchange of hellos immediately give me the envelope/gift bag. Do not say anything about money or donation, just hand it to me. I will accept the gift and we can then go back to having a good time with one another.
   
  
  
• If you accept credit or debit cards, how will charges appear on a credit card statement?
  
  
  I prefer cash and if you would like to help me get an online payment system up and running - I would really love you for helping me! Or if you have another suggestion, I'd love to hear it!
   
  
  
• If a client decided to make you a present, what would you be happy to receive? What is your wish-list (maybe flowers, lingerie, parfume, music albums, books etc.)?
  
  please see my website for this extensive/specific list.
   
  
  
• Do you travel? If so, what does that involve on the client's part?
  
  Yes. I expect payment for the trip to be made before leaving. Also, all expenses must be taken care of by the client as well as incidentals. I also expect to be taken care of while I am out on travel - shopping, spa, entertainment, etc.
   
  
  
• Do you allow kisses?
  
  YES YES and YES!! I love to kiss!
   
  
  
• If a client wants, will you engage in a role play? What kind of?
  
  All kinds! Love it!
   
  
  
• How do you handle a situation where a client may want to get "wild and crazy"?
  
  
  depends on what his definition of wild and crazy is....but more than likely all needs/wants/desires will be met and surpassed
   
  
  
• Do you allow the clients to make photos or video recordings? If yes, on what terms?
  
  No, I will contact you if I desire to have any photos or recordings to be made
   
  
  
• How do you handle first-timers or those who have limited experience with escort services? What are your suggestions to such clients to make your encounter the most enjoyable?
  
  Please read up on etiquette - there are many good escort sites that will help you understand what is expected from you. Let me know this is your first time escort experience and I will be very understanding of any "blunders" or nervousness. Like I've said before I have been told I really know how to make someone feel comfortable right away.
   
  
  
• Have you ever had experiences with disabled clients? How do you meet their special needs?
  
  Yes - I've had lots of experience with guys who have been paralyzed as well as other physical "handicaps". I have also done very well with a client of mine who is deaf, who is a regular gentleman of mine. I meet each person's specific need the way they each specifically prefer. We communicate about what works for you and also what you wouldn't prefer to do.
   
  
  
• What are your feelings about and attitude to participating as an escort in group parties, where several escorts serve several clients?
  
  
  I do not do bachelor parties, birthday parties, or any other type of "group" activities. I may consider multiple escorts with one to two guys but we would need to talk first.
   
  
  
• What is your attitude towards tobacco, alcohol and drugs? Do you drink or smoke yourself? Do you allow the client to do it during your meeting?
  
  Go ahead and do what you want, it doesn't bother me as long as you don't get violent or out of control. I don't smoke, but occasionally drink. I don't do any drugs, but I don't mind if you do, with the above caveat.
   
  
  
• What are the most usual types of "difficult" clients you meet? What would you like to warn them about in advance?
  
  I don't usually get "difficult" clients - but if I had to reeeeaaaallly think about it....hmmm...I guess guys who try to stay over the alloted time and not expect to pay for the extra time. I hate this!! Please watch the time yourself - I will expect payment for my time, after all that is what we are -legally- doing!!
   
  
  
• What would happen, if at some point you or the client wished to stop the proceedings? How would you handle the issue of compensation?
  
  I have the confidence to know from my many happy return clients that I'm not in the class of escorts that are into the grab-n-dash. If you are the type that gets all freaked out or are all super-nervous guy who thinks everybody is out to get you....I offer no refunds. There are no refunds. You have reserved my time and this is what you are -legally- paying for, whether you decide to stay or not you have prevented me from booking someone else in your place for that time period.
  
  Also, I have the right to stop at ANY time, for ANY reason and if I have to stop a session with you, you better never expect any money back. C'mon! I will also tell you that I'm not the type of woman who tries to get upset over nothing, I WANT to see you again, I WANT you to be a return client, I WANT you to WANT to see me again. This is my ultimate goal, so please don't think I'm going to try to swindle you in some way.
   
  
  
• What are the things that excite you or appeal to you when on a "date"? What turns you on?
  
  When a guy treats me with respect!
  
  I love dirty talk, but only in the bedroom - not on the phone or in the bar.
  
  Gifts turn me on, big time!!
  
  I love to have my neck-shoulder area nibbled on!
  
  I love to role-play, especially when you really get into it too!
   
  
  
• What are your sexual preferences? What kinds of activity do you enjoy most of all?
  
  I love sex!!
  
  I love to give and receive oral!
  
  But we will get into that more when we meet!
   
  
  
• What are your turn-offs?
  
  Dirty, smelly anything!!
  
  Kissing too hard - ouch!
  
  Grabbing too hard - ouch!
  
  Asking me if I like anal - I don't please dont ask.
   
  
  
• Hypothetical situation: your best friend, or your sister, or your daughter tells you that she wants to get into escort business. Would you encourage her to do it?
  
  It would depend on the person. Now if the question they are really trying to ask is, do I truly "approve" of the escorting business - the answer is a resounding YES! However, not everyone is cut out to be a doctor the same way not everyone is cut out to be a waitress (we've all had her before) and not everyone is cut out to be a good escort. I do think that there is a wonderful place in the world for people in the sex industry and I am proud to be one of the people making it great! Kisses!
   
  
  
• If someone wished to become an escort, how would you recommend they go about it?
  
  find a few hobbyist guys that really know there stuff and ask them - they are the BEST resources!!
   
  
  
• What are your hobbies and passions, things you love to do and discuss? Music genres, movies, reading preferences etc.? What other talents do you have?
  
  I love to play with dogs! I volunteer at my local vet to play with the dogs that get left there when people can't afford their care. I am very independent and I love to read. I love alternative, classic and hard rock!! But I can also get into the 70s, some oldies, and very few love songs. I love to read fiction, especially action novels, or funny novels (The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy - AWESOME!)
   
  
  
• What are your dreams, future goals and aspirations? Short and long term?
  
  I don't know yet!! I change what I want to be when I grow up about every three years...I get really into something for about three years and then by the end of the three years I'm burned out, so I'm not sure anymore about what I want to do with my life. I do know that I want to travel to see more of the world, I want to be tri-lingual by the time I'm 40, I want to live in/on the Mediterranean for 2-3 years, I want to live in New York for 1-3 years. I just want to -experience- life and all of its wonders and to never stop learning! Wow I sound like a dork!
