Your Man in Arlington

Agree with the above. His profile is accurate, and a he's very sweet guy, but is not a repeat for me. One thing to note: he let me know in advance the he required payment upfront and that he has a roommate (which I would expect for most young men living in DC).

The guy in the pics was the guy I met.

Agreed. Wouldn't trust this review and it's all sorts of weird. However, I saw him in NYC this Spring, thought he was very hot, and had plenty of fun across a wide range of activities. It was a longer experience (2 hours), and unlike a couple of the comments above, he was quite conscious in meeting the full commitment and ensuring I enjoyed myself the whole time.

I suspect this is fake. Photos are from an Instagram account and profile is similar to two other brand new guys. This one has photos lifted from a coaching/men's fitness Instagram influencer with have a 1 star review describing a bait and switch scam: Michaelmooree - Male Escort, Gay massage - Washington | Rent.Men RENT.MEN Michaelmooree Gay Escort in Washington, District of Columbia, available for Gay Escorting,Modeling,Erotic Massage. | Find all the best Male Escorts at Rent.Men And this one has photos lifted from a popular Polish Instagram account: Michaelthunders - Male Escort, Gay massage - Washington | Rent.Men RENT.MEN Michaelthunders Gay Escort in Washington, District of Columbia, available for Gay Escorting,Modeling,Erotic Massage. | Find all the best Male Escorts at Rent.Men

For me, it's almost always a given: out of 40 or so encounters, there were four without penetration: 2 because that was what was agreed upon ahead of time, one where I couldn't perform, and one where the guy couldn't perform (he was still able to shoot a huge load later with other activities). So yeah, as a client, almost all of the time... but I screen for that up front.

I highly recommend spooning: as long as the top doesn't push, it's gives the bottom all of the control of straddling without the pressure of gravity and the natural relaxation being able to pull your legs up slightly and "position" everything.

Competent therapeutic massage, end of session up-sell, older than current photos. Not a repeat for me.

Profile is down (not just expired or on hold).

Just a year ago, he was able to top for me. People and their situations change, thank you for the update. Side note: Haven't subscribed to his OF for quite a while, but when I did he was exclusively a bottom, so you're comments make sense there.

He's someone I really wanted to meet up with while I still lived in SF, but then came the pandemic and then I moved. On my list if I ever go back to visit.

Converse to @DrownedBoy's experience, I recently met with a $500/hr (not including tip) guy in NYC for 2 hours, and he was well... abso-fucking-lutely amazing, both in looks and the experience he provided, and worth his rate compared to more affordable guys. Interesting take on RM. My situation is not as you describe above, which makes the monetary risk on these sorts of encounters inconsequential for me. I do a fair amount of due diligence, so my selections usually work out; but when they don't, I'm annoyed by the wasted time, not the financial impact. Buy the ticket, take the ride.- HST

Definitely! Just like there is commodity wine. Some people just want to have a glass of wine, and don't care what it is; some people just want to get off and don't care who does it or how. 🤷‍♂️

For many clients, providers are not a commodity service and they will pay to meet exactly who they want. Just look at the secondary/auction markets in wine, watches, and art. Smart providers will understand this and set their rates accordingly.

While Reno isn't this for me, there are a few better know guys for whom I would jump on (lol) an offer like this.

I'm thinking of reaching out to him, but "Would love to see a pic of you to see if we’re a match." as a closer is a red flag and certainly indicates the request is not about "safety." While the couple of times I have provided a pic there hasn't been an issue, that particular request has been made after some initial conversation.

Maybe because it's a larger metro, but there were a noticeable number of traveling providers in DC just for Pride this weekend.

I've had 3 guys ask for their donation at the beginning of a meeting; and, I gave it to all three, since it would not be the end of the world for me if I wasn't satisfied. Two were less experienced guys, who I think were genuinely nervous about being ripped off. They did everything agreed to and were a enjoyable enough experience, but not repeats, probably because of their inexperience. The third was more experienced, had a "My Own Private Idaho" suburbs-gone-street-trade vibe, did everything we agreed and more... had a great time with him and would think about a repeat if I was in the same city. In all three cases, I felt that the request came from their sense of vulnerability in the situation and not from a desire or plan to rip me off. I get it. When I was their age and working as a provider, I was ripped off by one client: at the end of the session he informed me he didn't have cash and proceeded to write me a check from a closed bank account. Fortunately for me, it was a low effort encounter and I just wrote it off as bad experience. 🤷‍♂️

Profile created April 2, with 8 5-star reviews in 2 months. Reviewers seem to share many of the same guys?

Thank you! Fortunately, I didn't was able to reflect on it, not take it personally, and turned it into learning experience moving forward.

Photoshop. Especially the wet spot.

Thank you! My intention was not to kink shame, and a poor choice of words on my part. My meaning was that my client's intention was to not respect my explicit boundaries, and violating those boundaries was really what he was looking for when engaging me, on top of not fully communicating the scene he was aiming to create. You seem smart, experienced, and aware that these scenarios require a good understanding as to what will happen and both parties to stick to that. Many clients are not that self-aware, and I think there's a greater risk for providers in these sorts of jobs when being hired as a sub. Still, best of luck to the OP!

I think this is tough ask. Back in the day (30 or so years ago) when I was a provider, I took a job that involved getting spanked. The client was so genuinely messed up and genuinely sadistic, that I swore I would never take a job like that again. I would think/hope that providers will want to have a conversation—more than do you mind getting your ass turned red—before taking a job that could quickly pivot from a known, consensual scene to one that leaves visible physical damage and/or devolves into emotional abuse. That said, there are 68 profiles on RM in NYC with position "Bottom" and "Spanking" listed as what they are into; or 8 profiles with the keyword "sub" and are into "Spanking". I would start a conversation with those providers about exactly what I'm looking for.

Doesn't list anal under I Am Into. 🤔
