As for your help with the newbies. I am willing to help out. Feel free to send me a pm if ya have any questions newbies.

Over the past few years I have helped a few newbies find their way to the ranch. If any of you have a question that you want to ask from a customer's point of view, you can shoot me a PM and I will try to answer it the best I can.

Def a nervous newb here. I PMed you Jill!

Great thread, Miss Jill and I hope it helps some of our newbies to feel comfortable opening up and feeling comfortable asking questions. There's a wealth of information and knowledge that our regular gentlemen have to impart and I'm a big advocate of paying it forward!

Welcome to a whole new world of pleasure, Newbies!!

To all of you newbies who are posting here for the first times, welcome! It's great to have you with us, and I hope that you enjoy your experience here on the board and chat room!

As Ms. Jill said, don't be shy about asking us anything. We were all in your shoes when we first got started on here. In my case, I had lots of great people--Spartan Fan, isurfer, Trudger96 (RIP Charlie), Rapid and KevinZ, among others (apologies to those I missed)--who took me under their wings and showed me around the board and chat room.

And there were plenty of Bunnies and Lovers who also showed me around and helped make me feel welcome. Now, I'm very proud to say that I'm a part of the best online community I've ever been a part of. We're all here for you, and we'll give you all the support you need to make you feel a part of the family.

Again, welcome aboard to all the newcomers! Wishing you all the best on your journeys in Bunnyland and Loverland!

What a great idea and I'm sure the newbies will feel much better with their peers and mentors.

Sure, why not?

I get PM's all the time asking questions

Are most of them about ketchup and nut juice?

Great thread! I consider myself a newbie so I might be pming some of you folks

This is a great Topic Miss Jill.It will be very helpful to newbies...Thank you...

Like Colin, I was a touch nervous when I first started taking part on the board. Fortunately, there were quite a bit of great folks who helped me out and showed me the ropes. By the time Colin and I got to the ranches for the first time back in March, it was like we both were seeing old friends.

So if any of the newbies here want to know anything, feel free to add me to the list. I'll be glad to help out as much as I can. We all have to start somewhere and I believe the veterans here should help the newcomers out as much as we can.

Great topic Jill!!

First off, I just want to say thank you to Jill for taking the time to make this thread. Your an awesome/sweet lady and I'm eternally grateful for your kindness!

Secondly, thank you too everyone who offered their help! Navigating the forums can be a daunting task. Thank you for not letting us newbs fall by the way side.

I know that a lot of people here are pretty close though. So it can be kind of hard to randomly message someone and ask them certain questions. As a newbie your an outsider in a way and its understandable for them to be a bit skeptical of you. But I know, I for one, would appreciate any advice someone was kind enough to offer it, especially from ranch vets.

What a great thread! I wish everyone knew how friendly and sweet we all were. Anyone reading this, please don't hesitate to send me a message. Ask me questions, send me your comments; etc. You'll quickly see that I'm one of the nicest girls you'll ever meet.

i would be more than happy to answer questions to anyone that needs help. just pm me.

Nothing to be nervous about. Promise! Send me a message and let's talk

also im one here almost every day. seeing as i spend 95% of my life on the computer for school.

That's good to know. Good on you for attending school! I love an educated man.

For reference, I'm on here every day as well, though my response time sometimes isn't as prompt as I'd like it to be.

This is a great idea, wife.

Great idea!

Me too. Many times in chat I've seen him come to the rescue of some guys with some apprehension about coming in and he always alleviates it.

Nervous Newbies, I got back over a week ago from my first trip. Please feel free to pm me if you have questions or whatever.

Also FOR THE NEWBIES I personally went there and lowered the hell out of the standards so you should feel no embarrassment over anything !!

Drive through the parking lot twice ? Check

Sit in the 7-11 down the road for 45 mins chain smoking and too nervous to drive through the parking lot twice ? Check

Shiver as if in the early stages of hypothermia ? Check

Subconsciously, line-up to use a picnic table to leap the fence ? (Good thing Jade came runing to meet me, I was in launch count down) Check

At one point apologize to your date because you've yet to be able to speak in complete sentences and its been an hour since you arrived ? (this was BEFORE THE DEED WAS DONE MS. JILL LOL) Check

Nearly fall off the bed during the party ? Check

Nearly fall off the bed before and after the party ? Check

Okay, the bar has been sufficiently lowered, you have nothing to worry about and well I have lots of funny stories to tell about my first visit to a brothel so I'm not really complaining either.

Here's a tip newbies: Women dig guys who can laugh at themselves.

Well then, NEWBIES SIGHKAI AND I CLEARED THE AREA OF DUMB ROOKIE THINGS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE AND LOWERED THE BAR SO LOW YOU'RE LIABLE TO TRIP OVER IT, SO IT IS SAFE !!

GET YOUR TAILS ON DOWN to the Love Ranch !! LOL !!

In all seriousness, guys be you a virgin or new to brothels, you're going to be scared and that's natural. Almost everyone is SCARED and note SCARED NOT NERVOUS.

Don't fight it, embrace it, roll with it, know the ladies expect it, and you'll be just fine.

Wow! Great idea, Jill! I am very impressed! I love this!

I am definitely willing to help out with questions PM me if you have any!

Oh, and the ladies don't bite unless you ask them too...nicely. Bada Boom Bada Bing tip your waiters the joke has finally been made LOL !!

awesome!!

Does anyone wanna come bite me?

yes...

No, but a little nibble would be nice......

I actually did field some questions from a "Nervous Newbie" whose desire for privacy I will respect. Unfortunately, I was unable to answer his question to the level I would like. To protect his anonymity, I'll ask several more questions than that which was initially asked by me.

All responses are welcome, however I'm really needing some of the ladies to respond to this post because its all of you whom he's super concerned about making a good impression on. I was in the poor guy's shoes just two weeks ago and went out there and had the greatest time of my life, so I know the dude is gonna be just fine if we can get some starch in his nerves.

Gifts:
Ladies, what are typical gifts you receive from guys ? I know I sent cookies one time, of course the obviously flowers. What are typical gifts someone who would bring if they want to blend in and not be seen as unusual or out of place ?


St. Patricks Day Party:
What is that about and what is the typical itinerary ? Any traditions or customs one would do well to be aware of ? Frankly, given the typical turn-out, would a super duper nervous newbie do well to avoid going during this event and pick a calmer day ? All I know is it is kind of a big deal this thing, lots of people and crowds.

Having been to the brothels, I know how accepting people are of each other there but its hard for me to really explain. Except to say that people of all walks of life visit these establishments so you ladies see all kinds of stuff. Barring an extreme exception, a guy is far more likely to bring attention to himself by acting like a rude jerk, than he is by dressing a little funny or have a nervous awkward demeanor.

Would one of the ladies be able to perhaps better illustrate the idea I expressed in the above paragraph ?

Pretty normal gifts around here are gifts of food (my personal favorite) like candy, pizza, or pretzels. I think the pretzel thing is pretty specific to me, though. Flowers are also a good choice. If he wants to be more daring, there are several wonderful gentleman who bring panties, lingerie, or toys. Perhaps one of the best gifts would be tailored to the specific lady he's in to visit. Many will say what kind of gifts they prefer if you ask.




If you're only going to come once in your lifetime, the St. Patricks Day Party is the time to come. Although any brothel visit is about visiting the ladies, during St. Patricks it's secondary to mingling with the board members, which is great! If you're planning to make ranchgoing a habit, a quieter time for your very first visit may be preferable to some. As far as itineraries and such, I don't think we have one yet for this year. It is 7 months away, after all. I've heard there are now traditions involving women's panties but you'll have to ask Spartan Fan about that.


The best thing you can do as a new person to brothel life is stop stressing and come in. If you want to avoid some of the limelight I'd recommend picking the lady of your dreams beforehand and asking her to meet you at the door. This way, your experience can start when you first walk in, rather than having to go through the selection process when you're already VERY nervous, and you'll have the chance to get to know her a little better too.

I posted the following a while back, but enough "newbies" have expressed that it helped that I'll go ahead and cross-post it here:

---

FOREWORD: This post is going to be a little heavier, and deeper, than you're used to seeing from me. It may tug at some sensitive strings, but I think it's important -- and every word is inspired by people I care about in the BunnyRanch community. I hope you find some comfort in it.

---

Perhaps you recently got out of a relationship that was less than fulfilling.

Or you’re in one that never was.

Perhaps you’ve been alone for years, divorced or widowed, and have lost touch with your sexual and intimate core -- a part of yourself that’s as natural as the blood coursing through your veins, yet seemingly lifeless.

Perhaps you’ve distanced yourself emotionally, withdrawn socially, given up on the possibility of making a meaningful connection with a woman, cocooned yourself within your own heart -- the only place you find safe anymore.

Perhaps you’ve convinced yourself that the best of times are behind you.

Perhaps you’ve convinced yourself, worse yet, that you don’t deserve happiness, that your own transgressions, whatever they may be, disqualify you from contentedness, from love, from absolution.

Perhaps an ex convinced you of that.

Perhaps she, or he, ripped your heart out, and a piece of your soul went with it.

Perhaps your confidence has taken such a beating, time and time again, that you no longer have the energy to trust in yourself, let alone a woman.

Perhaps you’ve justified your unhappiness, decided you’re simply not worthy: not good-looking enough, not charming enough, not socially skilled enough, not thin enough, not big enough, not healthy enough, not financially stable enough, not this, not that, not the other thing. You've condemned yourself to a life of unrealized potential. Accepted it. You’re so lost in self-pity and self-loathing that you don’t know where excuses end and reality begins.

Perhaps it’s been so long since you touched a woman, touched one that way, that you’ve forgotten how. You’ve forgotten what it feels like, physically and emotionally. You’ve forgotten what a woman tastes like, sounds like, kisses like, smells like, looks like in the throes of genuine passion.

Perhaps you’ve never known, and it’s eating you up inside.

No more!

You are not alone.

You are in control.

You need not succumb to feelings of isolation, of disenchantment, of doubt.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard these stories. How many times I’ve heard, “It’s just not meant to happen for me.”

Everything is meant to happen for you. Everything!

The most personally gratifying thing I can offer you, even beyond toe-curling, mind-blowing sex, is the opportunity to help you see that. Or rediscover it.

I’m not going to sit here and say the BunnyRanch is the answer. I’m not even going to tell you it’s part of the answer. Answers rarely are so clear-cut.

But a visit to the ranch might help you find them. It might help you find yourself. It might be the first step toward a better, happier, healthier lifestyle. You don’t necessarily need a relationship, but you do need to feel desired. You do need intimacy. It can manifest itself sexually, spiritually, psychologically, emotionally. It’s something you at once share and internalize. It’s your lover’s, and it’s yours. It’s a part of your fiber. It’s who you are. It’s who we all are.

What's that, you say? You’re ashamed to seek a professional? You shouldn’t need to?

Phooey. It’s the world’s oldest profession for a reason. People have turned to us since the beginning of time, and will do so until the end. There is no shame in that, no matter what the puritanical forces of American culture might have you believe. And it's indisputably the safest outlet there is.

Don’t be controlled. Don’t be dissuaded. Don’t be disillusioned.

We all need a kick in the pants sometimes. And sometimes we need someone to just rip those pants off and remind us that we’re vital, we’re here, and we won’t always be.

Without judgment. Without inhibition. Without persecution, especially not from within. The worst kind.

You know?

If you don’t, let’s see what we can do about that.

annasuvari@bunnyranch.com

Rather than quote the entire thing again, I'll simply say The above post by Anna is definitely one a lot of people have identified with and found helpful. It certainly helped clarify in my mind whether this was something that could be helpful to my life or if it was just a purely hormone driven-misguided mistake.

Thanks for re-posting it Anna.

Ms Jill, thanks for starting this thread. I know we've talked before about what a mess I was when I first came to the boards. A lot of the stuff about newbies and virgins had unfortunately sort of floated to the back pages or at least wasn't obvious to me (Hey I'll admit it could have been in front of my face the whole time, would not be the first time I've missed the obvious staring me in face)

No regrets but sure don't want rookies coming to the boards thinking they're the only older V whose gotten this idea, and if they let it slip "the ladies will find me a total looser and never give me the time of day no matter how much green I've got in my pocket". -YES I WAS POSITIVE THAT THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WOULD HAPPEN, THOSE WERE MY EXACT THOUGHTS IN APRIL...THEY WERE MISGUIDED FEARS. ITS QUITE THE OPPOSITE IN FACT !!

Happy to do what I can to help spare them the stress I put MYSELF through. You are your own worst enemy in this deal or at least I was.

My story is all over the boards just search it if you care too. I'm trying to dial it down a LOT.

ANYhow, again I just went through this process. It wasn't easy and the last two months leading up to the big day, I was trying to find every excuse to back out. But eventually I manned-up and did what I felt I had to do for myself. Great time, no regrets.

Other than pay your way, I'm willing to help any nervous newbie make the walk to that gate. I'll even go so far as to offer this. If we're able to coordinate with my next planned trip, which will be to the LRN and BR, I'll meet you in the parking lot and walk with you to the gate. Because that's the hardest walk you're gonna have to take. I did it myself and it was one of the hardest things I've ever done but I'm glad I made it to the gate. I'll be your wingman if you need one on that trip.

But you gotta ring the buzzer yourself, why ? Because ultimately its gotta be your decision. Good news is, that gate pops open, D's ladies come running and you'll not take another step in the journey alone. I'm fully confident that so long as its a lady from the BR or LR's you'll be in good hands.

Peace,

One thing about St. Pogus weekend, and similar days where there is a large gathering of message board members. If you are a nervous newbie, it is an excellent time to not get hit with the dazzling lineup of beautiful women as you first walk in. When the hostess asks you, "Are you here for the Pogus party?" and you answer yes, you got a nametag with your handle here, and you get introduced and get to meet all the other message board people that are in attendance, and get to talk to them. Talk about wingmen, you will have plenty around to chat with, shake hands, and even talk about the boards. Sure there are the ladies, but the focus isn't on "you only" as you walk into the parlor. At all the St. Pogus weekend parties, some newbies have shown up for the first time, and they have enjoyed hanging out and watching fun times at the ranch, and I'm not just talking about the private parties in the ladies' rooms, right Colin and Brent?

Bump for an awesome and helpful thread.

Indeed surfer!!

For those who aren't aware, my brother Colin and I went to the ranches for the first time at this year's St. Pogus weekend - and it was certainly the time of our lives, from the Greyhound bus rides to and from St. Louis to Reno to the Gold Dust West hotel to all the parties and activities surrounding the weekend. It was an adventure that we'll never forget - and we had been active on the boards for a couple of years prior to making the trip.

Yeah, walking into the ranches for the first time was a bit daunting - you can see quite a bit on "Cathouse" but actually seeing it in person is something far, far different - but once you walk through the gates and into the parlor, meet the ladies and get to know them (as well as the other board members during St. Pogus), any butterflies you may have quickly go away.

We were so happy to have made that trip last March and we're planning on a repeat performance next March for St. Pogus 2012 (if not sooner, should things work out - hey, you never know!). And as I said, if newcomer has any questions, Colin or I - or any board member who's on this thread, not to mention the ladies - would be happy to answer them.

It WILL be the time of your life!!

Yeah, and if a supposedly innocent guy with the initials GDGW says he doesn't do anything out of the ordinary in public with us, ask him to tell you about the time he wore a skirt and another time about the hot wax.

He does look innocent.

Very supportive thread Jill. I remember when I was a newby.

Yep, you said it Surfer!

In my case, St. Pogus was, in so many ways, truly a life changing experience for both Brent and myself. In my case, it's helped go a long way in shedding a lot of doubt and insecurities I've had about myself. And as I said in my speech at the main event that Saturday night--how could I not look back on all the wonderful things that happened that weekend and not feel changed?

I'll say it again newbies--we're all here for you and we'll be very happy to help you out with any questions you may have. And I'm confident that you'll find that this is indeed the best online community that you'll ever be a part of!

Um, I'll pass on that LOL !!

Doing the old horizontal bump to remind all of our newbies were here for 'em!

This is so true! You teach people how to treat you.. meaning that if you are nervous and scared, then people will feel nervous and scared also. Just be friendly, kind, positive.. the girls at the Ranches have seen it all and all we want to do is ensure you have a memorable time here! No need to be nervous!

xoxo

Natalia

whoops!

Bump to Miss Jill's amazing post.

As would I'd love to do with you as well Jill!

Me! Me! I wants to...

Aaawww, thanks Jill LOL !!



We're glad to have you Cami. I doubt you remember meeting me. I was that jittery red headed guy Jade introduced to you at the LRN after a tea party a few weeks back. Ironically, I was so nervous I barely recall it myself.

Guys, here's a good example of how experienced the staff and women at the ranches are as far as nervous clients are concerned.

When I met Cami, Ms Susette, and Dennis that day, I was so nervous I was literally shivering in 90 degree heat. I knew that it was obvious that I was nervous, especially to people who've worked in the business for a while. Yet not one person even mentioned it to me.

I later told Jade how impressed I was with that. Because while I knew that all of you knew of my sever jitters, if someone would so much as said "Its okay to be nervous", it probably would have made me just self conscious enough to send me into a full blown anxiety attack.

So if the ladies and staff were able help someone like me who really does take medication for anxiety overcome that hurdle and have a wonderful time.

Its fair to say someone who doesn't have to fight that obstacle is going to be just fine visiting there.

muaaaaaaaaaaaaah! miss ya jill!

Breaking with my usual "no bump" policy because its a good cause.

LOL !! Sure anytime Jill anytime.

One of the wonderful things about this thread is that it shows what a kind and helpful community we are. Working ladies or board members are always willing to give advice. Welcome all the newbies!!!

To bump or not to bump, that is the question. Hhhmmm..... Oh what the heck, its a cause I feel strongly about. Nervous newbies, I was a particularly extreme nervous newbie at one point.

Thanks in part to the help of Jade, Jill and a whole lot of the other ladies who've been kind enough to spend time answering my questions and getting to know me, I'm not so nervous or as new anymore. On my visit I had a blast and I'm sure you will too.

Again, my door is open to any rookie who has questions or concerns and wants a guy's perspective on things. Feel free to PM me.

ANYhow, [*]BUMP[*]

Good bump here Jill, I've noticed a few more newbies on the boards here lately and even more encouraging they are actively participating on the boards as opposed to lurking (which is cool too everyone gotta move at their own pace).

Here's a question the answers to which might help some of them get started in terms of deciding whom they want to book with or what questions and things to consider when planning a trip.

For someone who has never been to a brothel before, what sort of things should they expect from a reputable courtesan ?

I always like the "newbie" posts because, though I have been on the forum for a while, I have regretfully never made it out there... YET!!!! (fingers crossed for Spring... maybe Pogus??? )
I know that no matter how much I am on here and what I know about the ladies that I will be VERY nervous that first time! I do know the boards are great for getting to know about the different ladies, initially by looks, but more importantly by peeks into personality! Definitely important because EVERY lady is a beauty and trying to choose by looks alone can make even a sane man go MAD...
My humble advice is to make sure that, before your trip out, take the time to read the posts here to get to know something more about the ladies than there breast size, hair color, etc.! Read reviews to get an idea of others' experiences, read the ladies' bios and personal information, and interact on the boards to see who you may click with! It may help with your expectations so that you won't be dumbstruck by all the ladies in a line-up... or even lead to making an appointment to make sure you meet a lady who piqued your interest! I know that when I finally get out there, I have a good idea about a lady or two (ok 8 ) I am VERY intigued by.... one of them being the lady who started this post!!!!!!!
to Jill!!!

Al

there is a lot of great info in here guys. keep it up.

I realize this could be debated to eternity and never get to a definitive consensus. However I'm wondering what the thoughts are for newbies particularly "V's". Appointments versus Line-ups ?

Ladies based on your experience which do you tend to recommend in situations like that ?

Ha. Most of the ranch ladies that I know will always say the appointment is recommended, a virgin or not. It is from the customers' point of view where you get the most differences in whether appointments or line-ups is preferred. For newbie ranch virgins, I would recommend if possible, 2 parties with different ladies at minimum on back to back days, the first at least as an appointment with someone that he has found some interest and connection with emails and messages between them prior to the visit, the second party choice to be made during the ranch visit with a different lady, someone that the person actually sat and talked with in person maybe on the previous day. That might be the only way to meet new courtesans that just started working at the ranch. Every popular lady was a newbie at some point and you might get the rising star. My reason for a 2 lady 2 party minimum is so that the newbie virgin has a valid comparison, and actually finds out that no 2 ladies are alike in their parties and sexual activities and experience. Hell, go for 3 parties or more if you can, just get rid of the damn V-card stigma and start having some sexual fun. The newbie virgin minimizes somewhat the "falling in love" feeling with his first lover, which some ranch virgins have in the past gotten deeply into. A lot of guys have a problem with that, and even though the ladies are just temporary "friends with benefits" and have other private lives, some guys can't control their heart so to speak even though they know better. It's not unnatural, just not a good thing in a brothel to fall in love with a courtesan.

I'm with you on all of that for sure !!

I know I went the appointment route for a simple reason. I was traveling 3000 miles to visit so I wanted a guarantee that one of the ladies I was comfortable partying with would be available and I'm very glad I did things that way.

1. It gave me plenty of time (WAY TOO MUCH TIME ACTUALLY) to get to know the lady better and engage in a discussion about what to expect, get many of my questions answered, and mentally prepare. FYI 6 months is too far out to book, it gives your mind too much time to beat you silly. Seriously 3 months out max.

2. V or just brothel V, you are going to be nervous enough as it is and those line-ups will do you no favors !! They can be intimidating. (Admittedly, I don't like them anyhow; it makes things seem like a meat market to me)

My personal preference will always be to avoid the line-up and pre-book. I'd strongly recommend that route for a newbie, then take in a line-up on your second trip. But keep in mind I have only visited once so my qualifications are limited.

NOW, here's the other side of that question. How should you handle a situation where you get there and decide you're actually not comfortable partying with that lady ?

I was nervous my first few days here also.. the nervousness is all gone now though

Thank you Jill for the kind words! I have always thought that long time board members have some advice even if they have never been there!
Looking forward to that hug one day!!!!

Al

I would agree and I have talked about it a lot because I don't want guys to feel bad about being nervous. However, I should also emphasize that it does go away. In fact part of why I'm looking forward to my return trip, is that with so many unknowns eliminated, the butterflies in my stomach next trip I expect will be far more manageable allowing me to simply relax and enjoy the experience even more than I did.

I would also say that, so long as you know you are ready to make a trip to the ranches, it is worth fighting through that nervousness. For me personally, it was THE most fun I have had since my college days which were pretty wild and crazy.

I was on an adrenalin high which boarded on euphoria the entire time I was there and best of all it was NOT chemically induced !!

Love this thread! As far as what to expect from a courtesan, you can read some of her reviews to get a better idea of her personality, but generally speaking-

Respect
No judgement
Patience
Friendliness
Open-minded
Helpfulness
Experience and desire to share her experience with you!

Each lady offers a unique experience so my advice is to party with a few different women to get an idea of the variety that is available!

Xoxo
