Session Availability

Session Availability - 01/16/21 09:14 AM

Having gotten older, I don't session as much as I used to. Time, energy, etc. But trying to arrange a session has proved difficult lately. I live in Chicago, so there's enough providers. Reached out to a few and have received no response. Nothing like pre Covid at all. I'm sure most of you do not session as much given current conditions, but I'm wondering how active the scene is anywhere else.

My dom friends who tour are usually booked days before they head to the airport, especially the NYC and Boston areas. I'd think that would be the case in Chicago as well. Perhaps, someone should set up a central resource of traveling dom's schedules. Most of my dom friends don't post on discussion forums. The only way to know when they are planning a visit is on their social media accounts.

Assuming you're reaching out to providers who're still advertising that they're currently seeing people, I'd guess you're getting less of a response due to people being generally more depressed and lethargic. A lot of Dommes who rent my space have expressed they're just not "in the mood" to do anything, especially sessions. The scene by me still seems somewhat active, obviously not nearly as much as pre-covid but it's definitely not dead.

A main listing would be great. I've found some by accident. But it is tough as you have to find someone who is both traveling and lists certain interests among their specialties.

They're all still online with their websites. But like a lot of web sites, they're not servicing them or responding to inquiries. I *get* that 2020 sucked the air out of a lot of life's pleasantness. As Cheyenne above mentioned, it'd be nice to have a central place to track Domme's travels.

A lot of Mistresses who tour regularly aren't doing that right now, which is probably why you're not finding a lot of info about upcoming travel!

Social media is probably your best bet for figuring out who's actually active at the moment. Many of us are cutting back, only seeing regulars or not sessioning at all and not everyone can be bothered to send a "thanks but no thanks" response to inquiries that don't make the cut. If you're interested in someone I suggest you take a look at her twitter and make sure she's sessioning. An active Eros ad is also a pretty good clue. Best of luck.

I forgot to reply here and thank you for the recommendation. While I thought active websites=active people, it did not. So I tried the EROS route and I was able to find and arrange a session. FINALLY! Thank you again for the thought.

From my findings here in Europe (still including UK as EU for all intensive purposes), the first and second lockdown brought a huge influx of time wasters and poor quality session applications. Not just for me but many of my colleagues.

I decided to remove the contact form off my site altogether and just stick with the regulars for now. Also I have been doing very well online so I am focusing on that direction for now.

Not only do I feel safer that way, I just can't deal with the level of insincerity of all the session requests that never materialised in the last year.

I don't know what the current situation is in the US but the case numbers continue to remain high in EU and I just don't want to deal with the hassle of vetting new clients. With a lot of dungeons closing and less touring Dommes (due to border restrictions) I think there is less availability all across the board.
