Thank you. See - it was useful. Helped you avoid a hiring mistake. I don't see why the mention of "chemistry" is troublesome to you. The entire hiring experience relies on chemistry. I would guess that forum posters would not make anything but glowing comments about the various "star escorts" due to the expected backlash that would occur if they did. That is not to say the guys you listed are anything but stellar, but it is to say that forum favorites are looked upon differently than other guys. PS: I put "star escorts" in quotes because I don't think the listed escorts would consider themselves to be stars.

Let's take a look at this review through the lens of issues and concerns that are posted to these forums every day: Experience: Recommended by another escort I already knew, Trophyhusband (TH) much prefers direct phone contact to communicate. The majority of threads on the topic of "communication" express a strong preference to telephone contact. This statement indicates the escort prefers phone contact. Good thing to know if a prospective client likes to make phone contact rather than text or eail contact, especially those who will not book an appointment without a phone conversation. Texting the number is an acceptable second place and email comes in a distant third! See above As always, please be patient for a reply if he doesn't answer. I have lost count of the number of times posters have complained about slow responses. This is very good information for those who want an immediate response (maybe find someone else) and those who obsess over a delayed response. TH is a Texas native and is very much a 100% masculine good ol' boy. Very casual, friendly, chatty, and very eager to have fun and hang out. One of the topics that comes up over and over again is escort's masculinity and ability to converse. Both questions answered in the review. The ad pictures match, but he does look better and younger in person. Having participated in this forum for 10 years and lurked for years before that, I've found the question of an escort looking like his pictures is probably the number one question on this forum. Now we know he looks like his pics. Most of these ad pictures are unposed, quicky selfies. Another frequent topic is that of over-posed, photoshopped pics. Apparently, not a problem here. TH is definitely not a highly-groomed, tweezed, GQ-model type. Very real and very unpretentious. He's not a muscle freak, but has the look of a regular in-shape dude in his early 30s. Many guys are looking for a model type while others want a "regular guy." This helps both groups of potential clients determine whether TH is the right guy for them. Interaction with TH will very much depend on the ol' "chemistry" thing. If you're a cool guy and having fun, are respectful and nice, you'll probably have a great time with TH. Sounds like TH might not be a match for every potential client. Good for them to know. Helps to avoid making a hiring mistake. He's definitely more than "stand and pose". As usual, be discreet about discussing expectations before and during the meet. Another frequently asked question is what to say to an escort when contacting him. This reviewer has answered that question. Be discrete. I'm not much into kissing or anal with anybody and I had a fantastic time with TH. I got all I wanted out of the meeting. We both had a couple cheap beers down in the lobby and talked a lot about the business and stuff. Like every review, this review captures the reviewer's experience. This reviewer wanted to hang out and have a beer. Another reviewer might want to be forced into get throat-f*&^ed. It sounds like it accurately described the experience this reviewer was looking for. He's busy with other projects in LA, so be patient contacting TH. If you like a very casual, friendly, good-looking, guy-next-door dude, TH is your man. Sounds like a good summary to me.

I wish I had some information to share, but I don't. However, I'm interested in what others have to say, as I think he is sexy and could be a potential hire.

yeah yeah, but, but, but, but...

Very nice.

I'm glad to hear this positive feedback, as I have considered hiring him but was always a bit hesitant. Thanks guys!

On behalf of the San Diego Convention and Visitor's Bureau, I invite them to visit and find out for themselves. Or watch Oprah.

Nate in LA. He is out of town until Thanksgiving, but if you can wait he is definitely worth it. http://www.men4rentnow.com/gay/escort/male/massage/los_angeles/YourHunk/166079 Matt Stevens is also a lot of fun http://www.men4rentnow.com/gay/escort/male/massage/miami_beach/MATTStevens/134362

Yeah, but, but, but... Actually, he has a nice hairy butt.

I'm going to get all woo-woo Coastal Southern California here, so feel free to skip this statement if that sort of thing is an irritant. I find it interesting that you use the word "disclose" in relation to yourself. To me, it speaks of shame and guilt. How about tweaking the sentence and use the word "share" instead?

Unless the statute has changed, Chicago's municipal code prohibits nudity in a venue where alcohol is served.

I have recently started sharing my stats with escorts because I am very tall. Although I don't consider 6'4" to be freakishly unusual, many guys have had a surprised look and comment on my height when they open the door. I usually tell them that I will be shorter when I am on my back and we both laugh, but for some guys the height difference is a real issue. In terms of communicating expectations, it seems only fair to explain what you want when hiring. How else is the escort supposed to know what you are looking for?

I was able to access them by clicking on them, but that was a few weeks ago. He might have changed the privacy setting after I unlocked them.

His ad contains seven pictures. The clothed picture is public and the other six are semi-private. As a premium member I can see all of them. Non-premium members are able to request access to them. Prior to having a premium membership, I always asked for access to the private pics when I was interested in hiring. On the occasions where the escort would not unlock the private pics, I crossed him off the list and moved forward.

I'm curious: why is 1 clothed photo a warning sign?

I agree, but the OP mentioned his type charged $300 - $400.

Here in Southern California there are escorts who charge $300 and $400 per hour. There are also escorts who charge between $200 and $250. I haven't done a rate distribution analysis, but a quick scan of ads indicates the majority of escorts who list a rate charge between $200 and $275 per hour, not including multi-hour discounts. At the risk of sounding like a picky statistics, math, language, and vocabulary wonk (which I am) you really can't extrapolate rates charged by a certain "type" across the entire population of escorts and deem it a "norm." That method could easily be used to claim $150 is the new norm if one's "type" charged $150 an hour. However, your statement would be 100% accurate if it read "Increasing number of escorts charging $300 - $400."

I would stop at "Please would you cum inside of me while you're fucking me? It's a real turn on." If he can and does cum in your ass, give him a nice tip, if you are so inclined.

I hate to be dense, but did you ask him in advance to cum in your ass? Here's why I am asking: A couple of ideas: It is possible that your top has held back cumming and requires more direct stimulation to cum than is provided while wearing a condom. If you asked him in advance to cum in your ass he might not have held off cumming and been able to do so while wearing the condom. Some guys can't cum while using a condom, even when they do not bareback. They require more direct friction on their dick than they get from a condom. Some guys are hyper-concerned about a condom tearing, breaking or slipping off (I would imagine tearing would be the most common of the three) and do not want to risk inseminating the bottom. My suggestion is to ask your next escort in advance of the appointment to cum inside the condom while fucking you and see what he says. Recognize, however, that escorts are human beings and can't flip the "cum inside the bottom" switch.

I don't fit comfortably in the front or back seats of the Honda Civic (the first driver) and whatever little Lexus the second driver was driving.

I agree with you. Until they start doing that, we can't blame the driver for thinking he would make $50K per year as did a previous poster. A side note: I noticed Lyft is no longer running ads with the smiling software engineer from San Francisco standing next to his Prius. Software engineers in Silicon Valley are NOT driving for Lyft and Uber. That is not true. In 2013 Uber lost about as much as it generated in revenue. Its revenue is the cut they take from each fare. Here's an article about their financials: http://www.businessinsider.com/ubers-revenue-profit-and-loss-2015-8 In fairness, most start-ups lose money in their first few years of operation. The article mentions that Uber might be profitable in some cities, such as Chicago, LA, or NYC. However, their losses are increasing and are unsustainable. Their major problem is they do not know how to run a business. They did not think through the potential liability in case of an accident or driver bad behavior (the stories about their dodgy liability insurance practices are well-documented), nor did they contemplate that their drivers would rely on their income claims to make a living. The Uber app is great. It is the transportation execution side that has issues. Regarding the cramped, out-dated vehicles in use by taxi companies, I, too, am 6'4" tall. Only one of the four Uber cars I have used was big enough to comfortably accommodate me. It was an old, not-well-maintained Dodge Journey (I happen to drive a Journey, albeit a newer and well-maintained model). It was a hot August day in Chicago and the driver was not running the AC. My previous Uber vehicles were a Honda Civic, a small Lexus, and a Jeep that was big on the outside and not big on the inside.

That is a thread in and of itself. One thing to love about Chicago: people like to eat, drink, and f*%$.

I find this to be no more or less of a "nanny state" practice than giving tax breaks and constructing taxpayer-financed infrastructure for a privately-owned factory or retail store that pays its employees less than a living wage.

You are welcome. PS: If you have time, check out some of the non-gay centric venues Chicago has to offer. Millennium Park downtown is not to be missed. The Cloudgate sculpture is breathtaking as are the gardens, which might not be in bloom when you visit given that Chicago has distinct seasons and Autumn is upon us. A stroll down Michigan Avenue is always fun and the Chicago River architectural tours are great ways to relax and sightsee. Try to grab a cocktail at the bar at the top of the John Hancock building. For the price of a drink you can get a 360 view of Chicago and Lake Michigan from the 94th floor. The drinks are a bit overpriced, but they are less expensive than the observatory a few floors up. IMO, the view from the Hancock is superior to that of the Willis (Sears) Tower Skydeck. I also recommend visiting the Art Institute's Modern Wing and walking around the Loop to soak in the architecture and the city's character. Lastly, (well not lastly, as there are dozens of things to do) a great way to see the North Side is from a Brown Line 'L' train. You can catch it on the Loop 'L' and ride it up to Belmont (it goes further, but Belmont is one of Boystown's main streets). Some great vistas of great architecture.

Thanks for the correction. I thought I heard Cocktail was no longer, but then I saw their website and recent Yelp reviews. I always forget about Manhole. It has been there for years!
