I have a question about Rentmasseur: I've never created an account with the site, always visited anonymously without an account / login. However, I noticed nude photos of providers are 'locked' and it says you have to login / create an account for free to access these photos. My question is - do you actually access these photos once you sign up for a free account, or is this a premium service which you have to pay for once you become a member ? (I believe with RentMen you have to pay a premium to access the nude photos, correct ?). I do know that once I logged in, a provider can see I was accessing their ad / photos and they can contact me through the site. (I know if I'm not interested in seeing the photos, I can log back out and browse anonymously, once again -correct me if I'm wrong! ). Thanks for any help !

I've noticed on the different RM sites that there are so many different approaches for providers attracting new clients. What makes an ad stand out to you that you want to pick up the phone and make arrangements ? For me, it's a few things: 1. A variety of different updated pictures. I don't want to see a bunch of selfies taken in a bathroom mirror from 2020 with a towel around you in every shot, in which the cell phone is actually blocking part of the guy's face (whether by accident or design). Current photos with face shots (or say you will send face shots in a dm) and current photos of your body. If you say you're hairy, don't share photos of a shaved / smooth body from four years ago. Optics is everything. If you're a masseur who doesn't offer nude massage, please don't tempt us with very revealing semi-nude shots. (It has happened to me many times - the photos leave nothing to the imagination as they are holding a small towel to cover their cock, but they seem offended if I ask if they are nude for the massage or offer erotic, reminding me this is therapeutic only). 2. Everyone 'age shaves' but let's face it - a provider can't be the magical '29' forever. Twice in the past month I've been with two escorts well into their 40s and both advertised as early 30s. Hopefully, men are hiring you for your appearance and your skills and experience - not for your age. If they find your photos sexy - you're sexy at 45, so you don't have to be 32. 3. STOP with the 'Ask Me' for pricing. Your pricing should not fluctuate like the stock market. More often than not, I find when I inquire about a price for 'Ask Me', I find the provider has priced himself above market price. I've gotten to the point where I skip over those providers these days. 4. Say where you're located in your ad, especially if you're targeting a big area. For example, if you are listing 'Boston, MA' but actually staying in Foxboro, MA or New Bedford, MA - please say so. It makes decision making much easier, depending on where the client is coming from. If you are staying in Boston, say what neighborhood you are staying in - again, helps with the decision making (as some areas are much more difficult to find parking than others). These are just my thoughts...😀

I saw SB three times - 1996 with Buckley, 1999 with Petula Clark (the watered down second tour) and 2017 revival with Glenn Close. The last two times made me long for the 1996 staging and costumes - in my opinion, the visuals added to the story as much as the characters, dialogue and singing. When Buckley stepped down those stairs for the first time, I was captivated - I went into a time machine and brought inside her Hollywood mansion on Sunset Blvd in 1949 - I was no longer sitting in the Minskoff Theater in the summer of 1996. Though Close was magnificent in the role in 2017, the 'scaffolding' took something away from the storyline, as well as her more 'basic' costumes. (Clark and the touring production were awful in every respect). I really lost the sense where I was brought back in time to 1949-50 Hollywood, inside the mansion. I never left the Palace theater. That's why I'm on the fence with this new revival - the bare-bones staging and the simple costumes are not tempting me. I know others see it differently, and don't put as much weight on the visuals (staging and costumes) to enjoy the show - and that's fine. For me, it holds some importance.

Patti Lupone was on 'The View' yesterday (Nov 1), and the subject of this revival came up. Lupone said she's going to be seeing it this coming Wednesday (Nov 6).

When I owned my small business (1987-2011), I was bombarded with 'charity donation' calls and visits throughout the year, but especially November and December. These 'callers' would prey on small business owners, trying to pressure us into giving 'to the community' and doing it 'for the children'. The first question I would ask them upfront was: "What percentage of my donation goes to employee salaries and office expenses ?" It's a simple question, and if they're asking for a donation they should have the percentage available to donators. The callers would hang up immediately. The in-person visitors would dance around the question, and try to change the subject and bring up the good deeds the charity is doing 'for the children'. I'd remind them they didn't answer my question. "How much of my donation is going to your salary and office expenses and how much is going to 'the children'?" They would do another tap dance (that was usually accompanied by a gut-crunching hearty laugh, as though I said something quite humorous) and remind me of 'the children'. I reminded them for the last time - if I'm giving money to you, how much is actually going to 'the children' ? I would then tell them I'd do my own on-line research on their charity, and make my decision about donating tomorrow. Thanks for giving me your pamphlet, and I'll call you tomorrow. That would anger them, and they would turn on their heels and walk out the door. Once they left, I'd hit my computer and look up their charity. Nearly 100% of the time, less than 5% would go to 'the children' and the rest went to staff and operating expenses (and their office was always in a luxury office building in the high-rent districts of the city). Keep in mind - leased cars, dining out at fine restaurants, etc. qualify as 'operating expenses' along with office rent, and utilities. So remember - if you're ever asked to donate to a charity you're not familiar with, ask the simple question: "How much of my donation will be going to salaries and operating costs and how much to the 'children' (or 'war veterans', or '9-1-1 heroes', or 'abandoned pets', etc.). By law, they have to reveal that info to you as it's public information. And BTW, I believe it was TV program Suze Orman was on decades ago which clued me into this. IIRC the rule of thumb was 85% and more should be going to the charity - not the staff or office.

Best show of the season. I DVR this every week (along with 'Elsbeth') and save them for Sunday night. Nice way to end the weekend and start a new work week.

Unfortunately, the show is not doing that well in the ratings from what's being reported. It's losing quite a bit of viewers who were previously tuned in to 'Matlock' - which has been a solid hit this season (and renewed for a second season already, after the second episode aired).

Teri Garr, the quirky comedy actor who rose from background dancer in Elvis Presley movies to co-star of such favorites as “Young Frankenstein” and “Tootsie,” has died. She was 79. Garr died Tuesday of multiple sclerosis “surrounded by family and friends,” said publicist Heidi Schaeffer. Garr battled other health problems in recent years and underwent an operation in January 2007 to repair an aneurysm. Admirers took to social media in her honor, with writer-director Paul Feig calling her “truly one of my comedy heroes. I couldn’t have loved her more” and screenwriter Cinco Paul saying: “Never the star, but always shining. She made everything she was in better.” The actor, who was sometimes credited as Terri, Terry or Terry Ann during her long career, seemed destined for show business from her childhood.

I tried watching it about a year ago. I just couldn't get past the first few episodes (and I am a big fan of both Martin Short and Steve Martin). It just didn't hold my interest.

Depends on how early they caught it and his treatment. If you heard / read his 'goodbye' speech to Australia this past week as he and Camilla was wrapping up their Royal visit, you will see he didn't sound too optimistic about his future. Camilla was in tears.

I had an appointment with him today. I believe it was my fourth in the past 18 months. I have to say he's one of the nicest and sexiest men I have ever met. His erotic massage is incredible - really knows how to use his hands and every inch of the rest of his body. After I flipped over onto my back, he wanted me to do some 'muscle worship' on him and I gladly obliged. He was hinting to go further than the HE, but I didn't want to so we stuck with an HE and some oral on him. He doesn't advertise as an escort on RM - as he said, 'if the chemistry and mood is right' he doesn't mind taking things further (at no charge). He also said he's not into looks as he is in the personality of the guy he's with (he has had many hot men who had no personality and there was no chemistry). He also said he's attracted to older men more than men his age or younger (maybe he just said that because I'm a few years older than he). His pictures are a bit outdated. He said he's really in his mid-30s but I'm honestly guessing early 40s. However old he is, he looks fantastic (just a bit older than the photos). He's a great conversationalist and very interesting to talk with after the session. Do not hesitate to hire this stud. Worth every dollar. (He's currently in New England - will be in Boston the next few days).

I'm more curious about the men (if there are any) who paid $600 for his services. What attracted them to him for that amount of money ? (If I was to pay that much - I won't - I would consider experience, looks, body, age, reviews, etc.) Alas, I guess he wasn't getting any offers if he's already reducing his price.

When I'm interested in someone new advertising (usually travelling), I text the following (especially if it says 'Ask' for rates) : "Hello X, I am happy to see that you are visiting (my city). I'm very interested in the E massage you offer. Does that include both nude, MT and HE from you ? What is the rate for this service ?Thanks in advance ! Please let me know what times you have available - I hope we can meet while you're visiting." That usually (95% of the time) gets a polite, informative response from them. They usually respond clearly to my questions, giving me the answers to 'the three' up front, the rate, and what times they have open. I then respond back with a Thank You ! (If I'm interested, I let them know the time which will work, if I'm not interested, I let them know the times they are free don't work with my schedule - but I hope to meet up with them next time). I then say I have one more question before I book - which hotel are they located ? They all advertise in my city but it rarely means they're staying here. I've gotten many providers listing a hotel an hour away, so I know they're not really in my area and then I let them know I wasn't planning on driving that far at this time. (I set my limits to about 10 miles out of the city they're advertising in - otherwise, I don't book.) And if it's a 'seedy' hotel/motel, I let them know straight out I'm not comfortable going there, so I'll catch them next time (this has happened only a handful of times - the hotels were disgusting, so I can't imagine having a 'relaxing' time with them there).

As a client, I must say it's just as annoying to guess how the provider defines 'erotic'. I'm expecting both of us nude, mutual touch and happy ending. You'd be surprised at how many providers advertising 'erotic' don't provide all three - and I'd like to know up front what they are offering for the rate they are charging (in my area, $200+). While the provider is guessing what the client wants, the client is guessing what the provider actually offers. So there needs to be communication between the two - and these days, an actual phone conversation is out of the question so texting is the only option. (I find their websites aren't too clear, either - it's mostly a bio on the provider and not what the service is or what differentiates 'sensual' from 'erotic'.

When I book an erotic massage (the only ones I'm interested in), it's usually with a visiting provider, so the massage is given in a hotel room (not a suite). If there is a table set up in the room by the bed, I have my massage on the table. If not, I am happy with the bed (I never ask the provider why he didn't bring a table, as I know there are a dozen reasons which I'm not interested in). When I'm on the table and it's time for me to flip over on my back for the 'ending', the masseur usually asks / suggest for me to move to the bed for better enjoyment / relaxation, which I do. I agree getting the full release is best on the bed than up on the table. It does make the experience more 'erotic' for me, with the masseur 'straddling me' between his legs or kneeling on the bed next to me (one regular visitor actually lays on his side next to me, and looking into my eyes while he's finishing me). Quite honestly, for me it's not a hard table or a mattress which makes / breaks the massage experience for me. It's the provider, his personality, looks (yes, watching a sexy guy work on me relaxes me), and his skills.

This past summer, I met up with Onyxforu and had a great time with an erotic massage. He's a sexy guy with an incredible body and huge dick. Very polite and very interesting to have a conversation with, too. He offers three packages at different price points, so as a first-timer, I went with the 'erotic massage' for $200 (and had a great time). 60 mins. The second package was erotic massage with a shower/body scrub and BFE (you both move over to the sofa or bed - whatever is in the hotel room) . No intercourse, and no open mouth kissing. $325 / 90 mins. The third package was the same as the second (above) plus a 'mutual orgasm' - he will let you jack him off until he ejaculates for $550 / 2 hours 15 mins. I believe he only books this once or twice a day - even he needs a 'rest' (I think he told me he's in his late 30s but doesn't look it). There are plenty of threads on him here, if you wish to do a search. (I will upgrade to the second package next time he's in town).

If you've chosen to be a 'provider' with a $600 price tag and and advertise in public to attract clients, discussions will be had. If you / he is that sensitive to such discussions, then choose another line of work. Being in a business where you will attract different forms of criticisms from the public is not for everyone.

If you're looking for a way to live financially free, set up an on-going GoFundMe page. Explain your financial hardships, and ask for 'generous, elder gay donors' to fund you.

He gets a 'meh' from me, dawg. Why do so many guys have the shaved 'scar' in one eyebrow these days ?

Says the new music sensation, ‘Things Have Gotten Overwhelming’ Chappell Roan Cancels All Things Go Festival Appearances This Weekend: ‘Things Have Gotten Overwhelming’ VARIETY.COM Chappell Roan has canceled her appearances at this weekend's All Things Go festivals: 'Things have gotten overwhelming and I am really feeling it.'

This Italian (with subtitles) series started on Netflix a few weeks ago, and I just started watching last night (first two eps out of six). The story is familiar (so far) : an older wealthy divorcee who just turned 60 falls for a sexy stranger who's 35, and just 'happens' cross paths with her. Her family, friends and business associates are suspicious of him, and rightly so - the woman is just overwhelmed with the 'joy' he has brought into her life. Giacomo Gianniotti plays the handsome young stranger Elia. From the moment he peels off his shirt and reveals his sexy chest and torso, I was hooked. This actor - who's very good and convincing in his role - just oozes sex. No dick shots (yet, in the first two eps), but plenty of ass shots of him - and what a fine ass he has. His sexuality is a little hazy - is he straight, gay, or bi ? Monica Guerritore is the starry-eyed divorcee (she looks much older than 60, and sure enough - the actress is born in 1958), who plays the role very well. You feel happy for her, you feel scared for her - all her emotions are shared with the viewer. A very fine actress. Francesco Del Gaudio is her gay college-age son who happens to meet Elia at a gay bar and the two of them share a kiss that Nico can't forget. He crushes on this guy, and can't get him off his mind. He's more than shocked to see Elia a few days later parading around his home in his underwear, new boyfriend of his mother. (Some shirtless shots of Francesco - wow!). There's some gay tension between the two (Elia knows how to lead him on to his advantage). Emanuel Caserio is her eldest, handsome married son Stefano (who is the same age as Elia), who uncovers a lot of mysteries surrounding the handsome stranger. He may be married and has a daughter, but he also has a 'gay life' which we see in a passionate kiss he shares with his friend. Dharma Mangia Woods plays Giulia, her beautiful daughter aspiring to be a model, who really has no interest in what her mother is doing and with whom. Some of the story (so far) is predictable, but with such a talented cast and such good looking guys (with Giacomo not afraid to take his clothes off for the camera) it's tough not to stay tuned. I plan on finishing the show this weekend (2 eps per night) but this is easily 'binge-able' for those who want to sit for six hours.

He's passing through my way this coming week. Can you let me know how much for an erotic massage ? His RM reviews say he's an excellent top, but I'm not looking for that, either. Interesting he describes himself as 'straight' but seems to really know how to please another man.

It's what Green does best. It's expected of him.
