Time block

What is a time block?

A time block is the reserved duration of an appointment. You don’t book a single act but a block of time, and everything that falls within it belongs to it: arriving, talking, being together and the aftercare afterwards. With a gigolo the whole reserved time is the service, not only the sexual part.

Why you book a block of time

Time is the unit, not the act. According to the encyclopedia, with this kind of appointment you pay for the time you spend together, which can include social contact, a date or sex. A sex worker explains that more opens up the longer you talk and the more time you spend together. A time block gives exactly that room: no rush, no clock ticking per act.

What a time block is not

“Then everything has to happen in that block.” No. A time block sets how long we are together, not what has to happen. If it stays at talking and touch, that is a fine way to fill it. The time is yours, and within those bounds you set the pace.

What I see of it myself

This is how I work as a gigolo. You book a time block, and within it we take our time for the whole meeting: arriving calmly, a bit of talking, seeing how it goes, and a moment afterwards to land. I don’t charge per part. That takes off the pressure to get down to business right away, and precisely because of that more often comes out of it than when everything runs on a clock. How long a block lasts we agree beforehand, so you know exactly where you stand.
