You're wrong.   So called "cheaper guys" are definitely available in the US or I can go to Canada and pay half of what I pay in the US and have dozens of hot guys to pick from.  $300-$400/hour is more than most US doctors or lawyers make and they have to pay taxes and insurance on top of that.  They also had to pay for eight+ years of schooling, etc yet still earn much less than an escort on an hourly basis.  The average Cuban makes $.10/hour back home.   The average Brazilian or Colombian makes $4/hour.   They move here and want to charge $400/hour and still complain its not enough?  Unreal.  

I've been doing this a long time and have never found that to be true.  Some of my best experiences were the cheapest and vice-versa.  Local guys tend to be cheaper for example because they don't have the hotel and travel costs.

Randomly getting laid off from a job that I was excelling in and finding yourself to have too much experience and too old and costs too much for the current job market...

I am not sure a rectal exam on an eighteen year old is a usual part of a routine physical exam.  I would not blame your Dad for not warning you but I do look askance at the doctor, unless you had a referable complaint.  On the other hand, a testicular examination is warranted given the peak ages for testicular cancer is teens to thirties.  

Omigod–EXACTLY! I hire my escorts based on their ability to discuss Molière and Proust in their original language and never anything so vulgar as how much I want to bury my face in their hole. That is worth every sou to me.

I NEVER SAID THAT!  I said the other guy was simply better looking! 😜 I eat well, work out and get hit on regularly when I am out.
Thanks for the kind words. However compliments will not encourage me to reveal myself (today). I like being able to finally comment here and speak openly and honestly and give a perspective that providers who do contribute are not able to. The input has not always been well received. 
I completely agree and in my personal life I tend to go for non model types also. 

You made some good points Cuteebrazilian on your high costs in the US. I now realize your out of pocket expenses are more than I had anticipated. You certainly have every right to charge the market rate, in every city you travel to. I do respect all escorts, that give an excellent experience to their providers. But, as a client, I am finding the higher rates being charged, are causing me to cut back dramatically on regularly hiring. If other clients like myself are decreasing their hiring, and being hit by increasing personal expenses, in addition to the increasing number of available escorts, who are sub par……that is concerning for clients and providers. 
 
 
 

I don't know about prices yet, but the supply is definitely increasing on the provider side from new guys, which you have to be cautious with.
Given how crappy the economy and job market is for young people, I can understand the influx.
Plus, a lot of guys are travelling, and I started receiving dry RMs from traveling providers (I politely declined so didn't get their rates).
One problem I see is that guys from LA or NYC go travelling around and think they'll get the same or more money in other places, failing to realize they're already in the highest priced market, and are overpriced to most other cities. I'm not paying NY prices in Chicago.

Yes, I need to go to Brazil.

It helps if the provider hosts. Their hosting saves the client around $200, which sometimes justifies the high rate. It also resolves the rideshare issue.

We were just in the Carolinas, and the prices were really uneven. Some guys charge as little as $150 for an erotic massage, and others want $400 for "full service." We ended up getting very sexy massages from two guys who work together: 90 minutes for $195 and we tipped them both because they were great. 

I am in Dallas and will charge $150 as a total bottom for an outcall to a hotel.  Fortunately I do this as a true hobby and do not need to charge high pricing.  If I am on the road for my regular work I can host at my hotel.  I have noticed pricing w some of the men I know in the industry starting to drop.   

I primarily hire in Houston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.  There seems to be more and more escort providers available in those cities.  I’ve noticed pricing is low as $200 with quite a few at $300 or less.  Some of these guys are newer to the scene and probably trying to build up clientele.  But it does appear to me to be a bit of a trend.

I have noticed that threads with the city in the title tend to gather more helpful responses than those that leave it blank

Personally, I disagree.  Sometimes those posts flag a provider I hadn't considered before, but might consider when I travel.  And they elicit responses from members who may not have bothered to have posted here, but have experience to share (or are willing to be DMed).

I do agree that the bazillion "bumps" are annoying, as are most requests for "anything recent?" on histories/threads, and think that the peanut gallery's fusillade of personal preferences ("Tattoos ruined him!" "Size doesn't matter to me!" "I'm only top/bottom!") is useless flotsam.  But the 411s sometimes elicit personal experiences, or prompt elephant memories that can call out impostors or decade-old pics. 
2¢.

Again, the problem with this issue is that many providers on RM don’t use the option to post their travel dates and destinations - they simply change their home city to the the new city they will only be visiting for a few days - and if that’s where you first see his ad, you’re going to post incorrectly about him in these forums. 
 
Las Vegas is the regular example… so many forum posts are titled “JohnDoe in Vegas” or something similar - even though JohnDoe lives in Boston and changed his home city location to Vegas for four days when he stayed at Caesar’s Palace. I’d advise to not put a city in the title unless you’re certain that city is the correct home city of the provider and that’s where he is the majority of the time. 

Once was enough for me.   He'll do whatever you want but he has a strange personality.  No interest, no passion and more or less just went through the motions.  Definitely a YMMV hire.  

Yet another new name.   This guy has probably used ten different names in the last couple of years.  That's usually a red flag.  

In late 2023, I copied down some numbers of ads on Rent.Men for a handful of cities.  I was just curious how those numbers looked today.  All of them went up by a lot!  The evidence suggests that there are a lot more choices on the market today than two years ago.

I have all my vaccines (monkey, covid, hepatitis, hpv, meningitis, etc) am on PrEP and take DoxyPEP after a session. I don't ask folks about their status o whatever because I know I'm protected by the things I'm doing. People who aren't on prep who rely on OTHERS telling them they're on Prep will have a rude awakening one day.
