The profile text
Personal trainer, Digbeth, five years. I spend my days telling people to stop apologising for how they look, and I have got quite good at meaning it.
Bookings with me are relaxed. I am not in a hurry, I am not performing, and I am comfortable with people who are nervous about their body or about the whole idea. Hotels or your place, evenings mostly, occasionally a free afternoon.
Anything you want to check before booking, just ask. I will give you a straight answer.

- It is shortAround a hundred words. Profiles in this part of the market are read quickly and long text is skipped.
- It ends with an invitation, not a warningMost profiles end with a list of what the escort will not tolerate. This one ends with an open door.
