Third, when flirting, flirt honestly. Find something you truly admire about your partner and comment on it. If you cannot flirt honestly, engage your customer in some other fashion. Flirting is a fun and exquisite art! Do not tarnish it by simply flirting with everyone in sight.
Finally, your goal should not be to raise false hopes or "leech off poor men". It should simply be to entertain and to do so in a fun and engaging way. Be fun, be daring, be wild, be coy, be aloof, be brash, be classy. Whatever it is that is needed for the current mix of customers, but do so with intelligence, style and honesty.
I couldn't agree more. I have a few diehard followers in Anchorhead, and they all love my ambigous flirtations. We all have lots of fun with it, It's a a much nicer and cleaner way of interacting that "private dances" and "cyber". If I am ever accosted, insulted, or have unwanted advances thrust upon my person, I can usualy count on having a gentleman willing to come to my aid. I am however not without my own means, and In fact one of my loyal customers is a guy that I challenged toa duel and lost, because he was drooling and kissing all over me without so much as a bye your leave. He admired my brash style, and he now still tries desperatley to flirt with me, but understands the boundries much better. Flirting effectively is a tallent, I am sorry if some of you feel this is degrading, or that I am being a leech and a mooch. I feel that I am having fun, as are the other parties Involved, I agree that there should be a wider range of opprotunities available for Entertainers to succesfuly live off of monies made plying their craft (fix entertaining misssions) however, I will continue in the same vein regardless of changes made to better our lot. I enjoy flirting and am skilled at it, the recipients of my attentions appear to enjoy it as well, and I give them credit for having enough intelligence (despite their being men) to have figured out my intentions or lack there of a long time ago.
