On RentMasseur he uses a different screen name and his ad states he does therapeutic and sensual massage. "Erotic" is greyed out. My guess is he tries to separate his massage and escort businesses.

And for those who would like a working link to his ad, here you go: https://rent.men/John_Bronco

At $35 per month, his OnlyFans ought to be a hologram that projects into my living room. If he did meet clients, one has to wonder what his rate would be. Sarcasm aside, if he is using an RM ad as a means to drive traffic to his OF (as he seems to be doing) paying for both Platinum status and being a supporter seems to be an expensive way to do so. Maybe that's why he charges $35/month.

In pic #5 he is holding an iPhone with a triple camera. The first one to have this feature was the 11 Pro, which was released in 2019. So, at least that one was taken between 2019 and now.

Seems like no one has. If I lived in SoCal I'd take one for the team.

I haven't received very many massages in 2023, but the best one of the year was by far Jake Hunter in Phoenix. My massage was strictly therapeutic, but man-o-man was it therapeutic! An old back injury came back to haunt me, and he fixed me right up. No pain afterwards.

Same thing happened to me. The above displays results for "Adamadonis" (no space between the names). Prior threads referenced "Adamadonis" and "AdamAdonis," so they displayed in the search results. When I searched for "Adam Adonis" (space between the names) I did not see the same results. Invision Community (the software that makes the forum go) is not quite as fuzzy as Google or Bing.

Moderator's Note: One thread about this guy is sufficient. Threads have been combined.

It really was fun. Circling back to the topic of "gifting," the bride and groom at this wedding stated that they did not expect gifts, but if anyone DID give a gift they would prefer money to contribute toward their honeymoon or a donation to the local arts center, where the bride works with children.

Hmm...parents budgeted $10K. How much did the bride budget? Oh, ha ha, my mistake - she expected mom and dad to pay for the entire thing and didn't want to contribute a dime. I "get" registries, when they are reasonable. For example, a friend was in his late 40's when he married a woman who is around his same age. They both have classic, simple tastes and prefer modest over ostentatious. They live in NYC, his family lives in Chicago, California, Argentina, and France and hers lives in Vancouver BC and Hong Kong, so they registered at Crate and Barrel and Macy's for things they needed. Their dishes from Crate and Barrel were the basic white dishes they have sold for decades. I think each dinner plate was $10 or something. Their wine glasses were the basic ones from Macy's as was the cookware (I think they wanted a stock pot and chef's pan - they had everything else and didn't have those items). They weren't going to register, but her sister received all manner of expensive, ostentatious, over the-top crap and they decided that a registry would encourage thrift and moderation. It worked! @Rudynate, I'm guessing this is a registry you could support. That's a good one. Same here, but I made an exception recently for an extended family member. She and her now-husband are mid-40's (her second marriage and his first) and are not at all materialistic. They rented a space at a local country park (they live in Watsonville, CA and the park is in Aptos), invited only very close friends and family, and had the wedding catered by a local taco truck. The wine and beer came from Costco and the cake came from a local bakery. Her dress was on clearance at David's Bridal and the bridesmaids wore regular dresses - no coordinated dresses in bizarre theme colors. It was an absolutely lovely ceremony.

One of the articles about her life stated she withdrew from public life in (I think) 2018. While very sad that she succumbed to Alzheimer's, at least she had 88 good years.

With a few exceptions, I would rather not receive a gift. I am nearly 60 years old and have accumulated so much stuff that I'm donating and selling stuff. When my dad (an artist) passed away, I acquired my favorite pieces, so I don't need any more artwork. One of my close friends is a potter, so I'm all good on home decor. Many flowers and plants are toxic to cats, and I have two of them. And, frankly, I am at a place where I can buy whatever I want. The exceptions to my "no gift" rule are art pieces made by friends, food (preferably made by a friend or friend's friend), and candy. "Art pieces" includes pillow covers, quilts, and such. My potter friend is a talented quilter who makes some very quirky quilts and, thanks to her great eye for fabric, has made some beautiful pillowcases, potholders, and even a briefcase. My sister-in-law is very crafty as well and has made me some very nice pieces over the years. I can always find room for that stuff.

He changed his name from "rwfh" to the current HarlanFH a couple of years ago. Here's a link to a Forum post about him.

I'm not usually one to jump to conclusions about legitimacy, but when I see the following in a profile I classify the guy as "fake:" New boy in town for a good time "Hey ! I am new in town and super horny. Very discret [sic] athletic boy, bi and very open. This wording seems to be used by every questionable escort who lands in a city. They never say "I am new to Los Angeles" (for example). It's always "in town" or "in the city." They also never say "I am new..." it's always "New boy..." I used to joke about "I sportif and give good sexi" when "Russian models" would visit (they always used "sportif" or "sporty") Now, it's "New boy in the city..." Every time I see that, Lea Thompson and her show Caroline in the City comes to mind. I hope I am wrong, but not so sure that I am.

Under "Spoken Languages," English, Espanol, and Portugues are all stated and have been stated since at least June 2023 when I first added them to my buddylist and database of buddies.

Here's another question: Can't one not click on the "article" and move on?

The forum rules about no reviews have been relaxed to allow members to provide brief commentary about providers. Except for mentioning his name and providing a link to his RM ad, you have done that. There's nothing wrong with providing his name and profile link. Since you are asking a question about hiring, this thread should ( and will )be moved to "Questions About Hiring." There are a couple of things you can do: Reply to a thread about the escort and state what you did here. This is a fairly common practice in the Forum. Start a thread in the Deli about the escort. Most members prefer that you reply to an existing thread so as to keep all of the feedback in one place. It also makes life easier for us moderators who have to locate and merge the multiple threads about the same provider.

The best way to find the answer is to ask one of the providers whose ad mentions "special services."

They are doing it for two reasons: stopping sex trafficking (RM seems to be an unlikely source, IMO) and stopping people from working in the country while entering on a tourist visa. While I think there are better and more important uses of DHS's and IBP's time and resources, I do not believe it has anything to do with homophobia. We don't know whether female sex workers are also being detained. I'm going to guess they are.

Thanks. Initial texts are always tough because one never knows where a guy might be when the text arrives. I always joke that I'd hate to send a raunchy message to a guy while he is having lunch with his aunt, Sister Modesta Chastity.

Some of my least enjoyable experiences have been with well-reviewed. highly touted providers, while some of my best experiences have been with new guys and guys who are not often talked about. I've found that some providers are highly touted because they are. It seems like no one wants to say "I had a "meh" time with Provider X" when everyone else raves about them. I have a pretty easy way of determining whether a provider is a good fit for me: If something seems "off," the ad is off-putting/rude/self aggrandizing, or if it seems sketchy, I move on. No matter how handsome, worked out, or well hung he is, if something doesn't seem right, I do not pursue a meet-up. Period. Obviously old pics, especially when they are recently uploaded, are a no-go. There was an escort who had mirror selfies (so far so good) and one of them showed his phone (also fine). It was a Blackberry smart phone that was exclusive to Sprint and has been out of production since the 2010's. All of his pics were from the same time period. Pics that are also used in someone else's ad are a no-go. There was an LA-based escort who used a cropped version of a pic that a Palm Springs/Phoenix based masseur also uses. The masseur used them first. I took a pass on the LA-based escort. In my first communication I state what I am looking for and ask what he thinks about it. If a guy replies with "yeah, sure" or "'sup" or "what do you get into" or some such, I see that as a sign he isn't paying attention. If he isn't paying attention to what he has read, I can't see him paying attention in person. To me, this warrants a pass. In fairness, most guys reply with an enthusiastic "yes," or state they do some but not all that I am into, or state they are not a match. Note that when I am texting a provider I always start with "Hi, I am [my name] and I saw your ad on [the website I saw it on]. Let me know when is a good time to discuss a potential meet-up." In this case, a reply of "what's up," "hi," or "what do you get into " is appropriate because I haven't told him what I get into. Once I have his attention and I know he can text I describe what I am looking for. Like his ad, if his responses seem off, I move on.

FWIW, his profile started displaying in Phoenix over the weekend, despite his ad starting in June and him having a 602 area code (602 is the original Arizona A/C). Wondering if he is from Phoenix and is back home visiting or has recently relocated.

That looks to be an iPhone 6, which was released in 2014. So, yes, old pics.

Another "new boy in the city." Ugh Our linguistic friend might want to study his capitalization and punctuation. It's pretty bad.

A favorite, long-retired escort once said "If you want to play in the back yard you will see some dirt."
