Call girl
A call girl or escort is a sex worker who (unlike a street walker) is not visible to the general public. Nor does she usually belong to an institution like a brothel. One must summon her, usually by calling a telephone number-hence the name call girl. Often, call girls advertise their services in small ads in magazines, and more recently through the internet, although an intermediary advertiser such as an escort agency may be involved in promoting higher class escorts. The lower class side of escorts may be handled by a pimp or a pander. Call girls can work either incall, where the client comes to them, or outcall, where they come to the client. Call girls are commonly perceived to be elite amongst prostitutes, far more skilled, able to pick and choose amongst their potential clients and therefore demand higher prices for their services, and are more attractive, educated, well-groomed and youthful than street prostitutes. An escort service will not take on any woman that is unattractive, has a visible drug problem (such as needle marks from injecting drugs), or who presents an overly negative personality. Escort services seek to establish a reputation for offering desirable women and know that their customers only give them one chance. If an escort service sends an undesirable woman to a client, the client will very likely not use that service again. Also, many escort agencies do criminal background checks on applicants to weed out those that have been arrested for street prostitution or other types of crimes. This weeding out is done to reduce the chances of being accused of procuring prostitution, trying not to draw the attention of law enforcement agencies. For these reasons, there is rarely any cross-over between call girls and street prostitutes.
Non-sex work
Not all clients hire call girls for physical reasons. Some simply do so for companionship either for social reasons (i.e. attending a party) or for companionship (i.e. someone who feels lonely may hire a girl to provide companionship missing in his or her life). Other call girls may specialize in domination or other fetishes which do not require intimate sexual activity.
Companionship
This is most common in elderly rich man that simply enjoy the company of a young attractive woman. Escort agencies try to determine if this is what a client wants and if it is, the agency will try to send their most educated and polite women to this type of customer. It is not unusual for these "chat" call girls to receive big tips or even bequests from clients. In the movie Klute, Bree Daniels performs this service for elderly garment manufacturers
Social Settings
Another client who does not ask for sex may want to impress others by having an attractive woman as his date, if not as pretend girlfriend or wife. Such a client may be attending a high school or college class reunion or an office social event. Clients seeking this service will tell the escort service what their intention is. They may specify what kind of woman they seek to play this role. The client may meet with the woman beforehand to evaluate her level of intelligence, education, manners, speech, and ability to execute the pretense, as well as to judge her appearance. They would go over his past, her (pretend) past and their feigned relationship, in order to successfully carry out the pretense.
Call girls and celebrities
Male celebrities and rich men commonly hire call girls for sex to avoid the problem of unreasonable infatuation, where their partner is unreasonably attracted to them (and won't let go of the relationship or accept refusal) because of their status. It also avoids the problem of "kiss and tell" stories, where the girl would sell the story to the press. Both parties understand their respective positions and do not go beyond them. Some of these men are even open about what their date is to those they're partying with, though call girls request they not be. These "dates" can include flying by private jet to Las Vegas, staying in a luxury hotel suite, dining at the finest restaurants, dancing at the hottest nightclubs, and gambling at the casinos. Usually, the man will first hire the woman for a short date to determine if he wants to do longer ones (such as the one just mentioned) with her. Here again, the woman's appearance, intelligence, manners, sociability and education come into consideration.
City tours
In Europe, the system of City Tours is getting more and more popular, in cities such as Paris, Rome, Amsterdam or Zurich. Eastern European call girls, from countries such as Russia, Hungary, Romania or Ukraine, are brought by agencies for short stays not exceeding two weeks. The agencies book a room in a business hotel for them, where they receive customers all day long. This system takes its toll on the call girls, who are relentlessly exploited during their short stay in Western Europe, and they, the agencies rarely recruit more than three or four of these escorts on a full time basis. Whether or not these escorts are part of the EU may also be a factor in recruitment. For the clientele, or punters, this provides a revolving door policy with the benefit of newly employed escorts providing a continual service.
Internet
Most call girl agencies and independent call girls are now online, and the Internet has become the main venue for a customer to find his match. Generally, the picture of the girl is provided, and sometimes, the type of sexual services she is willing to offer. Some agencies also propose for a high fee people of special interest, such as twins, former porn stars, B-List models, prodommes or even submissives.
The Internet includes many directories or listings of call girls or escorts. These may covers a specific area or a wider region (even worldwide). Usually the call girl or the agency is responsible for submitting their information to the appropriate directory. Examples of these call girl or escort directory sites include Free escort listings, girl-directory.com, escortsmart.com, dmoz.org, etc.
The Internet is also used by punters/hobbyists to provide evaluation of the call girls they have met and rate them, on their aesthetics, behavior or sexual performances. For the readers of evaluation web sites, such as BigDoggie, MyRedBook.com, TheEroticReview, and TopKitten.com, the rating of the call girls is often a determining factor in their selection.
This has led some customers to blackmail call girls by threatening of a bad rating in order to obtain more sexual services or a discount on the rate. Some call girls also cheat by logging stellar evaluations of themselves on these sites, although most of the sites try to identify and filter these "fake reviews".
Call girl internet slang
Because offering sexual services in exchange for money is illegal in many areas, certain code words in the subculture of sex work have emerged to communicate in lieu of description of explicit acts. For instance the words incall and outcall describe the location of the encounter. Incall means that the session takes place at the call girl's place (her apartment or hotel room in the case of a city tour). Outcall means that the session is at a place selected by the customer, personal home or hotel room.
Another familiar word of the call girl slang is GFE, an acronym for "girlfriend experience" usually implies that an escort will have a warm personality, be willing to kiss the client, hold hands and be generally affectionate. This also includes an assumption that the girl will perform oral sex without a condom barrier. Usually this option would be explicitly stated as "Oral w/o" or "Oral without". Another codical term is "Greek." A call girl who is "Greek welcome" is willing to have anal sex with the client. This term is more commonly used in the USA. Other terms include DFK (Deep French Kissing - ie open mouth kissing with tongues).
Here is a typical example of girl description, taken randomly from a city tour web site:
Deep French kiss (DFK), oral without to completion (CIM/CIF/COB), 69, sex in different poses.
This means that the call girl will perform oral kiss with the tongue, fellatio without condom up to the customer's ejaculation, in mouth (CIM), on the face (CIF), or over the body (COB), will partake in mutual simultaneous oral sex, and practice various poses or positions during intercourse.
Sting operations
Sometimes the police carry out a sting operation: a police officer, posing as a client, summons a call girl to a hired hotel room, or as a call girl, summons a prospective client.
In the Netherlands, this has been done since 2004, although neither buying nor selling a call girl's services is illegal per se. So far, in half of the cases, the women have been foreigners illegally staying or working in the country. The operation also serves to check the ages of the service provider and the receiver: if one of them is below 18, the escort agency breaks the law. To avoid entrapment allegations, the police do not specially ask for a foreign or very young call girl.
In Pakistan and several other countries it is common for female police officers to dress up like prostitutes in order to capture criminals.
In India, this was done in May 2004: for the first time a prostitution ring that used the Internet to solicit customers was raided. A decoy client ordered two call girls to a hotel. Three pimps were arrested under the Prevention of Immoral Trafficking Act (PITA).
Nevertheless agencies may have disclaimers that specify that the service available is for companionship only and that any other activities are by common consent outside their framework of provision which could provide sufficient grounds for the legal plausibility of denial in contravening laws against sexual commerce.
Public perception of call girls
One thing that call girls have in their favor, as contrasted with street prostitutes, is that they're out of public sight. In some countries, the public dislikes seeing street prostitutes in or near their communities and usually actively campaigns for local law enforcement to arrest these women. Since call girls try not to draw attention to themselves and conduct their business beyond public view, the public seldom call for law enforcement action. Those trying to legalize prostitution commonly use this sentiment to their advantage by telling the public that the best solution for street prostitution is to legalize prostitution arranged over the telephone and/or internet. This "out of sight, out of mind" argument carries the most weight with the public that opposes street prostitution due to it driving down the value of their real estate. (See also NIMBY)

Escort agency
Escort agencies are companies that operate a booking and dispatch service that temporarily provides customers with a female or male companion at the customer's house or hotel room. Some agencies also provide escorts for longer durations, who may stay with the client or travel along on a holiday or business trip. The escort agency is paid a fee for this service and generally the fee only includes the presence of the companion with the person who engaged the escort.
Structure
Distinction from prostitution
While it is commonly assumed that the reason for hiring an escort is to participate in a sex act, that is not always the case. Some escort agencies derive at least part of their income from providing companions at dinner functions or similar events to which the client wants to be able to go with a 'date' or a 'partner'. In some countries, sex in the escort agency context is illegal (counting as prostitution), though circumventing such laws where they exist is the purpose of many (but not all) escort agencies. Also, even if sex for money occurs, the escort has a higher degree of flexibility in refusing it than in other forms of prostitution.
Business model
From a legal perspective, escort agencies claim that they are dispatching these individuals to provide a social or conversational service, since prostitution laws often forbid taking payment for sex or communicating for the purpose of arranging a contract for sexual services. Advertisements for escort agencies often carefully skirt the legal line, and avoid specifically offering prostitution or sexual services. This fact in turn is well-known to police and the political powers, who, where prostitution is illegal, usually prefer to act against more visible and problematic street prostitution. This has been criticised as hypocrisy, especially where government licenses and taxes the escort agencies.
Some countries have used a two-pronged attempt of criminalizing street prostitution but permitting or licensing prostitution in brothels or via escort agencies.
Escort agencies often recruit individuals to work as escorts by placing employment advertisements in a magazine or newspaper. Escort agencies typically maintain a list of escorts of different ages and appearances to cater to the varying interests of clients. Some agencies may specifically deal in a certain type of escort. There are male-for-male, female-for-male, and female-for-female escort agencies, as well as a few male-for-female agencies. Agencies commonly specialise in only one sex. Transsexuals are available from some escort agencies.
Escort agencies typically advertise in regional publications and telephone listings such as the Yellow Pages. Some larger escort agencies maintain websites with photo galleries of their escorts. Clients contact agencies by telephone and offer a description of what kind of escorts are sought. The agency will then suggest an escort who might fit that client's need.
The agency collects the client's contact information and calls the escort. Usually, to protect the identity of the escort and ensure effective communication with the client, the agency arranges the appointment. Sometimes it may be up to the escort to contact the client directly to make arrangements for location and time of an appointment. Generally the escort is also expected to call the agency upon arrival at the location and upon leaving, which improves the safety of the escort.
The arm's length relationship between the escort and the escort agency is designed to protect the escort agency (to some degree) from prosecution for breaking laws against prostitution. If the employee is solely responsible for arranging any illegal prostitution-oriented activities, the agency can maintain plausible deniability should an arrest be made.
Income and commission
The amount of money that is made by an escort varies with many factors, such as sexual attractiveness, competition from legal and illegal sources, and the commissions to be paid to the agency. Typically, an agency will charge their escorts either a flat fee for each client connection or a percentage of the pre-arranged rate. According to police in Calgary, Canada, the high fees charged by escort agencies may make escorting less lucrative than street prostitution, especially as agencies often also deduct the license fees directly from the earnings.
Independent escorts may have differing fees depending on the season, or whether the client is a regular or semi-regular customer. Independent escorts may tend to see clients for extended meetings involving dinner or social activities whereas escorts who work through agencies generally provide only sexual services.
