[QUOTE=GoodEnough;1872729]Interesting that you think tipping a girl Php5-10 is "paying fairly. " Try that with a girl from Burgos and see what happens. I don't know the source of your blanket generalizations, but, for the most part, I believe they're incorrect while Donald, who speaks from long and varied experience is correct. There's no doubt that over the past few years it's gotten more expensive here, and most of the ladies, regardless of the bar fine you've paid, expect a minimum of Php3,000; a far cry from the Php10 to which you've referred.
GE.[/QUOTE]All girls are not equal as far as body, youth, beauty, and personality. Yes, they can hope and aspire for 3 k but the market may not allow that. Is 3 k fair from freelancers who have cut out the bar? Also I have seen some girls that were hotter than higher priced / tier girls. Plus for your 3 k your not assured of a winner. Note: I am not an older white man. Value is subjective but as someone else say WGs outnumber customers especially customers who just want to drink and look and not barfine. I was not referring to myself and don't practice those habits. Did you glean that I was over tipping my first 10 weeks? Some guys avoid weekend nights or just look at the big Korean bars and shop elsewhere. Your partially right. Bargain shopper have different venues and should be able to find entertainment that fit their budget. The girl can reject their proposal. Funny, you never talk about their fellow Asians screwing them over. How much is there bar paying them if they sell no drink and voluntary / involuntary have no barfine? ($2-$12) What is a bar to do when their girls reject most of their barfine proposals. Lose the wise customers that run away from the drink sluts? Also with the 5 pisos I was referring to waitresses on drinks and food. I've heard of guys tipping girls nothing. Especially in Latin America.
I must visit a different Manila
[QUOTE=DCups;1872799]I happen to agree with Cool: I am a generous guy but not THAT generous. Maybe it is my rugged good looks and guitar-playing charm but I don't pay those prices and still have a lot a sexy 20-something fun.
.[/QUOTE]I generally find girls in Manila are more streetwise and there is far more money floating around Manila so girls expect more. But I guess it does depend on what you seek / accept. An average looking girl may accept happily less then 3 K. But I will quote a few examples where I find 3 K for good looking young girls is unrealistic. Maybe also my view is tainted by poor negotiation skills and I am always transparent upfront so there is no confusion afterwards.
A stunner from one website (one of the prettiest I have been with) would not budge off 6 K per meeting (negotiated down from 10 K per meeting). I did show her photo on a previous report. She dumped me for a guy paying her 25 K per month apartment plus allowance (she wouldn't tell me the allowance).
A regular current bar girl I pay 4 K each time I meet. It is 50/50 whether she shows up. She is probably one of the best looking on Burgos. She is currently working so I won't say which bar. She is making 80 K+ per month. A guy took her out of the bar scene for 6 months for 40 K per month plus apartment.
I know these are isolated extreme examples. But I just don't meet naive young attractive girls in Manila who would happily meet me for a few k. I must be in a different Manila.
Confusion. I was referring to AC
Gentleman,
I am in the wrong thread. I was referring to AC. I have paid EDSA rates 3 times and got scammed by an EDSA girl the last time I hired a Pinay there. My main emphasis was on his 50+% tipping for LT girls. I know Manila is more expensive. I do not like Makati. I enjoyed Wow Wow Bar 3 years ago but it wasn't the same this winter.
