Glossary of Terms Used on This Register
This register uses a set of its own terms, and advertisers and directories elsewhere use more of them. This page collects both: the fields you will actually filter by on this site, and the wider terms you may meet elsewhere and want to understand before you ask about them. Where a term already has a full page of its own, this entry is short and points there — the fuller answer lives on that page, not twice.
How a booking is arranged
- Incall
- She receives you at her own address. The cost of that address is already inside the rate. Full explanation: Incall, outcall, and why the price is different.
- Outcall
- You give the address; she travels to it. The rate covers the travel and the risk of a place she has not seen. Full explanation: Incall, outcall, and why the price is different.
- Rate by duration
- An entry lists a separate asking price for each length of booking rather than one number — commonly a half hour, an hour, two hours, and sometimes an overnight or a full day. The figures are not fractions of each other: a two-hour rate is usually less than double the one-hour rate, and an overnight is priced as its own booking, not as a multiple of the hour. Agree the length and the figure that goes with it before anything else is arranged.
- District
- Hong Kong is split into areas for browsing rather than shown as one long citywide list, because crossing the harbour or travelling between the New Territories and the Island changes how long an outcall booking actually takes. An entry's district is where the advertiser is based or receives, not a promise of how far she will travel for an outcall.
- Independent
- The advertiser holds the account and answers messages herself: no agency wrote the entry or speaks for her. Most entries on this register are independent in this sense. Where an entry is placed by an agency instead, the desk records that difference rather than presenting every entry as if she manages it alone — see About Us for who answers for what.
How this register handles trust
- Verification / identity check
- Before publication, every entry's video is matched against its submitted photographs, so the person applying and the person in the gallery are the same person. That is the one check performed here, and it does not extend to documents or to any claim written inside the entry itself. Full explanation: Why we publish "no checks on record".
- Nationality vs. ethnicity
- Two separate fields on an entry that are easy to read as one. Nationality is the country the advertiser states; ethnicity is the appearance category she states, and the two do not always match — each is filled in by her, not verified by the desk. Full explanation: Nationality is not ethnicity, and both are self-declared.
- TOP placement
- A paid option that moves an entry above standard entries in its own district and category for a fixed number of days. It changes where an entry appears, not whether it was checked or approved — pricing and what it does and does not buy: Advertise.
Service terms used on this register
Every entry states which of nine service labels it offers. An entry that offers none of them still exists on the register; these nine are what you will see stated when they apply.
- GFE — Girlfriend Experience
- A booking built around affection, conversation and closeness, rather than being rushed or purely physical. What exactly it includes beyond that is set by the individual advertiser, not by a fixed definition — ask her what it means for her. Landing page: GFE.
- Oral sex
- Stated as its own service rather than assumed to be included. The wider market uses several shorter codes for it — see "Terms you may see elsewhere" below. Landing page: Oral Sex.
- Anal sex
- Stated separately from oral and vaginal sex, because most advertisers who offer it price and agree it separately, not as an automatic extra. Landing page: Anal Sex.
- BDSM
- Covers bondage, discipline and roleplay involving control between two consenting adults. The specific acts within it vary enormously between advertisers who list it, so it is worth naming what you have in mind rather than assuming the label alone covers it. Landing page: BDSM.
- Erotic massage
- A massage-led booking, distinct from a straightforward escort visit. Landing page: Erotic Massage.
- Duo
- Two advertisers taking one booking together. Both are separately listed on the register; a duo booking is arranged with both of them, not with one on the other's behalf.
- Couples
- Two advertisers, a woman and a man, listed as one pair — the client joins them as a third, the opposite pairing from duo, where both advertisers are women. Full explanation: Couples.
- Touring
- An advertiser who normally works elsewhere and is in Hong Kong for a stated, limited period, rather than based here permanently.
- Mature
- A category for advertisers at the older end of the register's age range — a general grouping, not a fixed age cutoff.
Terms you may see elsewhere
Advertisers and directories outside this register also use a set of shorter codes for specific acts — OWO, BBBJ, CIM, DFK, Greek, A-Level, rimming and others among them. None of them are filters or fields on this register, and this page does not explain what each one means: a code that stands for a physical act is exactly the kind of detail that belongs in an agreement between two adults, not in a glossary entry.
What is worth knowing is simpler than the codes themselves: a general service label such as GFE or Oral sex does not automatically include any narrower act within it, and an advertiser's own wording always takes precedence over what a code is assumed to mean elsewhere. Where a booking depends on a specific term, the only reliable route is asking the advertiser directly, in her own words — the same principle set out in What an escort listing actually tells you. Two named styles do sit inside this register's own categories rather than being outside terms: nuru and tantric massage are both forms of Erotic Massage, distinguished by technique and pace rather than by a separate listing.
