    No, he'll still get his escorts.

    This market is like a balloon, put the squeeze on backpage and the ads will just start popping up somewhere else.

    Pretty crazy how you wouldn’t have a clue now that it used to be a prostitute/stripper hot spot.

    Do people actually use escorts anymore? I would have thought with tinder that wouldn’t be a thing anymore. Don’t have to pay and less chances your the 10th person of the day.

    I actually got donuts offered by a hooker once when Livingston was 1st built and the Maid was still there.

    Have not been in that part of the core for almost 7 years. Is the hooker Macs still a thing?

    I lived at centre street and 14th Ave South for a year and that was hookers central back then. Actually was less of an issue than I assumed. They all said hi for a while, but once they all realized I wasn't interested, it was no big deal. Even my girlfriend wasn't bothered by it.

    Makes sense after all, that's a service business so making people in the area unhappy isn't smart.

    I worked second floor Canterra Tower back then. 12 on 12 off, days/nights in a server room.

    We use to have fun going out and talking to them, bumming them smokes. I had friends come down lots at midnight for my hour lunch break, skateboard. Good times.

    Even using Tinder costs money...no date will give it up for free. You're still paying for it when you take them out for dinner and drinks. If you're lucky she puts out after one date.

    What's the average cost of a tinder date? What's the average # of dates before she puts out? What's the going rate for an escort?

    Need these numbers to properly assess ROI.

    What about the sense of reward though? Tinder requires some game. Escort, not so much.

    Props to those that actually have the patience for tinder/bumble... after about a week my thumbs hurt and I felt like a broken record having the same conversations over and over again with different girls. I just can’t do it. Best ROI is still house parties, you’re already out... everyone brought their own drinks, host supplied the food... just chat and go home! ...then maybe a time commitment at the clinic the next week for a couple hours
