Provider

Definition

Provider is the industry's preferred term for someone who offers escort or companionship services. It's respectful, neutral, and professional. You'll also hear escort, companion, or sex worker depending on the context and the individual's preference. I always liked "provider" because it acknowledges the work without reducing the person to a single act. When you're communicating with someone about booking, using this term shows that you know the culture and you respect it.
