Sie, it’s a high money valued professional relationship.
Great Debate?
It sounds more like a General Question, but on the off chance that anyone wants to discuss it, I’m sending it to MPSIMS.
Goddammit, this is an important and divisive issue. There are a lot of different views on this and frankly I think personally that anyone who would address a sex worker (NOT a prostitute) with “du” is a misogynistic racist. It’s also a well-known fact that sex workers in Germany prefer uncircumcised men because an uncircumcised penis has more nerve endings and gives the woman greater pleasure. They also hate people who let their dogs and cats wander around the neighborhood. And they are definitely in favour of the 2nd Amendment.
Use a Sharpie. Depending on the size of the prostitute, choose the appropriate tip - I favor the twin-tipped (fine and chisel-point) model for flexibility. Use a flat, broad, clean area to write the address, and don’t forget to use a return address. I would take her to the post-office for weighing, and to talk to the counter clerk about your mailing options. These ppl are a wealth of postal information and, if you ask nicely, are often happy to make suggestions.
Sie unless you know the prostitute well, just like anyone else.
Depends on whether you’re just negotiating or have already finished the transaction.
If you’re serious, I’d probably use du. I’ll check with my local expert later today.
Does this vary from country to country? Or do you use the formal ‘you’ in any language that has it, when engaging a prostitute in initial consultation?
What about during the actual session?
You address her as Sie. She address us as Du, or however she likes. This is part of the policy that one extends every courtesy to people who are in service positions.
Umarmungchen Bär?
It depends if she is a doozie or not.
If sie has du oder, your best bet is to find another prostitute.
My German resource tells me “Always du. Never anything else.”
Ask her, “Darf ich dutzen?”
Ja - du
Nein = sie
What’s the German for, “That will cost you an extra 10 Euros”?
She can address me as Doktor, Herr Doktor, or Gott.
The Uberboss is in from Germany this week. Would you like me to ask him?
FWIW the few times I was solicited (I demurred, politely) the ladies used Du.
Das kostet zehn Euro mehr.
I’m guessing at the usage of the term Euro.
You should always call her Sie on first interacting with her. The basic principle of prostitution is that you have to pay if you want to Du her.
