What is an escort? The glossary for guests in Germany

Insights·22 September 2026·8 min read·By Sina
What this is about

What is an escort: the question is asked in every language, and the plain answer is short. An escort is a woman who gives you her company for an agreed time, and an escort agency arranges the meeting.

In Germany some words differ from the English-speaking trade: a profile is a sedcard, the fee is the Honorar, the lead time is the Vorlauf. One line applies to every entry: what a lady enjoys stands on her sedcard, entered by herself, and what an evening becomes is decided by two adults between themselves.

Behind the terms

What is an escort at LEA: the women behind the vocabulary

Terms bring order, people decide: behind every entry stands a woman with a profile of her own.

Escort terms become concrete on her sedcard

What GFE, overnight or duo means for one particular evening stands in her profile: her preferences, her rates by duration and her wardrobe, entered by herself.

An enquiry needs no vocabulary

Write what you have in mind in your own words, in English. Sina passes your wishes on to the lady before the date, so she knows what matters to you before you meet.

what is an escort What is an escort: a woman who gives you her company for an agreed time, arranged through an agency, with conversation, attention and, if both want it, intimacy.

Arranged is the companionship and the shared time; what an evening becomes is decided by two adults between themselves.

What is an escort? The word and the thing behind it

The word comes from the French escorte, the accompaniment, and that is still its core. An escort is paid companionship for an agreed time: a woman who joins you for dinner, for a journey or for an evening, with conversation, attention and, if both want it, intimacy. The companionship comes first, and closeness grows out of the evening.

The variants follow from there. An escort lady, also called an escort girl, is a woman who offers this companionship on her own terms, with her own profile, rate and limits, as the escort ladies at LEA do on their sedcards. An escort service is the agency behind her: at a Munich escort service such as LEA the agency organises, checks and confirms in writing, and the lady decides. Begleitservice and Begleitagentur are simply the German words for the same thing.

Companion escort: the same woman, seen from abroad

A companion escort is an escort lady described from the guest's side: companion is the English word for Begleiterin, and a luxury escort companion is the same woman at dinner or on a business trip. At LEA this is no category of its own, because every booking begins with the companionship.

An escort is booked for her company; the evening is decided by two adults.

What is an escort date made of: GFE, PSE, overnight, duo and FMTY

GFE: girlfriend experience

GFE is the girlfriend experience: closeness, affection and the feeling of a real girlfriend. At LEA it is the basic attitude of every date, so you need not name it in your enquiry; the full GFE meaning deserves a longer read.

PSE: pornstar experience

PSE is the pornstar experience, the intense counterpart: passionate sex with a lady who enjoys exactly that. Which side a lady enjoys stands on her sedcard, and the pornstar experience at LEA is lived by the women who describe it there in their own words.

Dinner date and overnight

A dinner date is the classic evening at the table, from four hours, the minimum duration of every booking, with a meal that belongs to it. An overnight is the whole night to a shared breakfast, from 12 hours with enough sleep for both, and it is possible at a first meeting as well.

Duo date

A duo date is an evening with two ladies who know each other and enjoy accompanying together. Real duos stand at LEA as pair profiles with a sedcard of their own, and the rate follows from both ladies.

FMTY: fly me to you

FMTY, fly me to you, is the named way of travel: you invite the lady to your city, the agency books her connection, you settle the travel costs in advance and book the accommodation, and the lady comes from Munich to nearly any place, as far as an escort date in Dubai. Travel terms stand before the booking; the details stand with the FMTY escorts.

Where an escort date takes place: incall, outcall and the hotel

Incall and outcall

Outcall means the lady comes to you, to your hotel or your home, and it is the standard at LEA; in Munich her journey to you is included. Incall is the reverse, a visit at the lady's place, and whether a lady receives guests is her own decision. The pair incall vs outcall answers one question, who comes to whom.

Hotel visit and home visit

A hotel escort visit is the most common form of an outcall date. A house from four stars is a recommendation, so that your companion feels at ease; the lady arrives as your guest, and the reception learns nothing of a booking. A home visit is its private counterpart, and whether it takes place at a first meeting is decided by the lady.

Preferences on a German sedcard: French, Greek, body to body and BDSM

French and Greek

Französisch, French, means oral pleasure, thought of in both directions, and carries a firm rule: one opening per play, no switching, for hygiene's sake. Griechisch, Greek, simply means anal sex; whether a lady enjoys it stands on her sedcard, together with any supplement she has set for it.

Body to body, COB and COF

Body to body is the massage skin on skin, at LEA part of the erotic massage. COB and COF name a short moment at the end that guest and lady settle directly between themselves.

Submissive, dominant and sub

Submissive, devot on a German sedcard, means enjoying being led, and expressly not letting anything be done to you. Dominant is the opposite role, the lady takes the lead, and sub is the English short form of the guided part. The whole field belongs to BDSM, always with limits agreed beforehand.

Escort enquiry at LEA Munich: from the sedcard to a confirmed date
From A to Z

Behind every term stands a woman with a profile

Knowing the language lets you read a sedcard like a regular; ask in your own words, and the same evening follows.

Booking terms in Germany: sedcard, Honorar, Vorlauf and minimum duration

Sedcard and Honorar

A sedcard is a lady's profile and at the same time her word: what stands there she entered herself, and the photographs come from an exclusive shoot, as recent as possible. The Honorar is the fee for the shared time. Each lady sets it herself, the rate follows the duration and never the content of the evening, and it stands on her sedcard, with an overview in the escort rates.

Vorlauf, Mindestdauer and briefing

Vorlauf is the lead time between enquiry and date: short notice is often possible, planned is always better. For an escort date in Stuttgart as for any other place, lead time and minimum duration stand before the booking. Mindestdauer is the minimum duration: four hours for every booking, an overnight from 12 hours. The briefing is what happens with your wishes: you name them in your enquiry, the agency passes them on to the lady beforehand, and she knows what matters to you before you meet.

Advance payment at a first booking

A first booking at LEA is settled by advance bank transfer: date, duration and fee are confirmed in writing, and the transfer fixes them for both sides. Everything becomes binding through booking an escort in writing, before the first meeting.

A note from the agency

Guests from abroad often write to me with a list of abbreviations, and I answer with a name: tell me what kind of evening you have in mind, in English and in your own words, and I suggest the lady whose sedcard carries it. Your wishes reach her before you meet.
