My take on some recent posts and comments:
A).
I also have found very little correlation between price and performance in bed. Where I find a correlation is between price and looks, at least in the traditional model or actress look that global corporations put up as ideal beauty (lighter skin, tall, thin, billboard pretty, etc). Basically the type of girls you see in fashion magazines or advertisement.
You will find more of those type of women at the higher cost venues and less so at the more value oriented venues.
If your tastes in women diverge from these type of women, then you have way more leverage and options.
I normally would prefer to fuck a girl who is 7 in looks and personality, but is a 9 in bed vs. A girl who is 9 in looks and just a 7 in bed.
With that said, I don't mind paying more to fuck a 9, as she is just as likely to be good / bad in bed as a 7. You don't know until you fuck her.
B).
DO NOT bring any concealed weapons into a boate or high end civilian club. You are asking for trouble. You are a gringo, why bring chaos when are traveling to a country where you might not be familiar with the justice system or language. Those places have lots of security and are among the safest venues in the city. You aren't roaming the streets of Centro alone at night. That video from porta dos fundos is funny as fuck, but take it for what it is. Comedy.
C).
The rmain purposes of the robes in termas aren't to hinder hidden weapons. The robes have pockets big enough to hold multiple cell phones. The main reasons for wearing robes (and it is optional at many termas) are to 1) provide more comfortable spa clothing and give off the illusion of a spa and some do take advantage of the spa facilities and use the showers, sauna, etc. 2) allow for freedom of movement and easy access for the girls to feel you up and entice you to go to the room 3) probably likeliest reason. Not stink up your clothes with smoke, perfume or sweaty smell of sex for when you go home to the missus.
D).
I've seen guys wear everything, from tank tops, shorts and Crocs / Havaana to a suit and wing tips right from the office, when they visit Scandallo. But most guys are dressed comfortably in smart casual attire (T shirt, polos, collared shirt and jeans or pants, with the occasional shorts. Wear what makes you feel comfortable. At the end of the day, having money is all that matters to the girls. The clothes are coming off anyway. What is more important are having good hygiene and not giving off a creep vibe, which are true in any social setting.
E).
I like RJ a lot and Barra is great if you want a more relaxing and safer spot to chill in Rio away from the hustle of Zona Sul, especially if you are shacking up with your favorite girl or spending weeks / months in RJ. Barra's (and those west of Barra) beaches and water are better than Copa, Ipanema or Leblon. But for truly great beaches and clean water, there are tons of better spots to visit in Brazil. There is also a small, but decent club and restaurant scene near Posto 2.
But Barra is still mostly an upper class residential area and a * to get to most of the tourist spots, nightkife, top end restaurants, good hotels, etc. , which are mostly in Zona Sul. Basically everything a tourist or short time visitor not on a budget would want are in between Leblon and Botafogo.
So with above said. "Why go to Scandallo instead of Barra? I will count the ways:
1) You don't want to be in / can't be in RJ, whether due to work, prefer the big city, etc.
2) So what if there are a bunch of hot online escorts based out of Barra? There are tons more in SP, whether you want to try your luck picking them up at local spots they congregate at or just browsing from the comfort of your hotel. You don't need to be in Barra for that.
3) The big VIP money isn't in RJ or Barra. It's in SP. They might have vacation homes in RJ, but SP is their home base. I would bet my life there are tons more rich people / VIP parties thrown in SP than RJ annually. There is a reason that SP has the most helicopters per capita and only city in the world with its own air traffic control system.
4) I prefer to see the goods in person and be able to chat and check out a girl's personality, as well as see how frisky they are. Imagine having ALL the HOT girls in all shapes and sizes and coloring from SPLove, Private55, BarraVIPs, MClass, Club Model and other Brazilian online escort websites gather in one safe, relaxed and luxurious venue for you to pick and choose in person. And that is Scandallo!
5) Most of the girls at Scandallo can be had for around the average price of what hot online escorts charge for 1 hour. And most of the Scandallo girls aren't clock watching, which online escorts are known to do. It isn't a strict 1 hour with a Scandallo girl. Most of them have stayed in the room with me for 1. 5 to 2 hrs, as I tend to take my time and enjoy foreplay. You do pay more for the ROOM FEE when you go over 1 hour, but any time over 1 hour is prorated by the MINUTE. So take as long as you want (within limits) with the girl until you finish. If going over 1 hour, when the room fee is being charged by the minute at this point, will fuck up your budget, you probably shouldn't be in Scandallo in the first place.
6) if you want an overnight date, Scandallo girls usually ask for 2 x their short time price. Most online escorts would charge a lot more. I don't do online escorts often in Brazil, but they quoted me 4 x to 6 x their 1 hour rate for an overnight date. Hey. Maybe I got no game and you can do better without meeting them first.
7) Time is very valuable to most, especially those with means. You can always make more money. You can't buy more time. Having a lot of some of the hottest girls in Brazil come to one place for you to pick and choose is very efficient utilization of your time, and thus valuable.
8) There is more accountability when dealing with a Scandallo girl as they can get fined, fired, blacklisted from working at other boates, etc. If they try to cheat a client, provide poor service, etc.
9) There is nothing comparable to Scandallo or other high end boates in RJ. Not even close. You can hit all the T1 termas and hobbying night clubs in Zona Sul in one night (and I have done so) and still don't see 1/3 of the talent you see in Scandallo.
10) Choosing Scandallo isn't "being the ball". It is choosing to play for the New York Yankees rather than the Single A ball Stockton Ports.
