Maybe I'm wrong about that but reviews were a way to determine what she is comfortable with and if we could potentially have a good time together.
I'm right there with you. There have even been some ladies who have gotten militant about the question, and put guys on blacklists *because* they asked if something was available, calling them various names. Can't win for friggin' losin'.. And you can't say "Just PM the reviewer and ask him," because there are a multitude of reasons why the guy won't answer the question even if asked. So if ladies aren't comfortable being asked, and guys won't share even in private, the path to the answer is limited or non-existent. Somethin's gotta give, or guys just might elect not to schedule at all with the lady rather than risk reprisals or being disappointed. And that obviously works to the ladies' disadvantage.
