Lesbian escorts
They are a very tiny part of the business world.
Where you’ll most often find them:
San Francisco, New York City, London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Sydney, Melbourne, Toronto and Vancouver are big cities with large numbers of LGBTQ+ people. In places where sex work is legal or not illegal, it is easier to advertize openly in lesbian spaces. Some find work through apps that are exclusively for lesbians or through word of mouth in networks of queer women rather than mainstream escort sites. Most of the “lesbian” stuff you’ll see in sex work isn’t lesbians working lesbians, it’s bisexual women working men.
The percentage of women who purchase sex is:
Most sex buyers are men so the number of women who buy sex from any female escort is thought to be 10 to 20 percent, a small number.
Of these female clients, less than 5% would be lesbian escorts (as opposed to bisexual escorts or straight escorts providing GFE).
That's a pretty small number -- maybe 2% to 5% of women who hire sex workers specifically seek out lesbian providers. The market is minuscule to the demand from men. Reality vs. Fantasy “Lesbian duos”
Most escorts who claim to be "lesbian" or "girl-girl" are working for men. So here’s the breakdown:
This is the first group . performance. For men .
Two straight or bi escorts that don't mind girl on girl contact. It's work so they may or may not like it. satisfies the “lesbian fantasy” that most men who watch porn have. They are often advertized as a “real lesbian couple,” but most of the time they are not. Category 2: Real bi or lesbian couples who go out together
Do exist, but not frequently Usually advertize only to women, couples or LGBTQ+ people. Higher in gay-friendly cities (Berlin, San Francisco, Amsterdam, etc.). Work through LGBTQ+ groups as usual, not main sites Category 3: Two friends or escorts who actually like each other
They may not be a 'couple', but there's real chemistry between them. But still mainly marketed to men who want to watch How to tell the difference:
If you see explicit pictures of two women together on escort sites for men, it’s probably Category 1 (performative). If they advertize on LGBTQ+ specific sites, say “for women/couples,” or use coded language like “WLW” (woman-loving-woman), then it’s more likely to be genuinely queer.
