I wonder if there is any difference for folks in states that require ID verification to view explicit materials vs those that do not. I am in CA where verification is not required. I suppose using VPN set to a location with more permissive laws would circumvent the issue altogether. For those not using a VPN to view rent.men, I wonder if explicit pics are visible, where normally they would not be visible. I’m tired of RentMen and RentMasseur dictating what pics are visible. I’m over them putting pics behind a paywall for their own profit, at the expense of clients not viewing me when I want them to. I pay to advertise. Let me advertise.

Sorry, read it too quickly and missed that. I didn’t ask if he paid up front. He pays me after our sessions, so I imagine the same here, but who knows, sometimes providers demand payment upfront. My client told me he was intimidated and didn’t want to cause trouble. He believes writing negative reviews brings him bad karma. He’s expressed similar attitudes about other hires before. I’m trying to help him better advocate for himself. I suspect a lot of clients are the same way; they are unsatisfied, but in the moment feel like they don’t have the right to say anything. Maybe a provider is larger or more intimidating in demeanor relative to the client. My client is smaller, maybe 5’ nothing and an octogenarian. I see how he may feel vulnerable and fear rocking the boat. Clients shouldn’t have to put up with this stuff. It gives the industry as a whole a bad name. While working guys should be doing better by their clients, at the same time clients have a responsibility to advocate for their own needs. Offering partial payment for a job left half done is one way to go about it, but a lot of times clients fear conflict or for their personal safety. It’s true in the reverse too, where it’s not worth a provider risking a physical altercation over being shorted or stiffed payment for a (completed) job. Both sides are hesitant to invite conflict. Some personalities are less assertive in general.

I don’t care for the duck lips or fake eyes either, but what I want to report is that one of my regulars hired him recently and shared his experience with me. My client said he was afraid to review the guy, so I will add this blurb here. Btw I don’t know this provider or have any negative feelings toward him personally, but I do feel protective of my clients and others like him. He said Ryan was a total dud. Flopped his flaccid member around the client’s butt for a bit, then decided he was done well short of the hour and left. Didn’t do anything the client asked him to do. Charged $400+ Knowing how kind and easy to please my client is, I find this disappointing.

While I prefer short term rentals, I have fewer issues at hotels. Hotels don’t care; staff see everything. As long as you’re respectful and discreet, all is well. Some short term rental hosts are more easily scandalized, so I take many steps to avoid problems. Time consuming but worth the hassle. Hotels I don’t give a second thought. In hotels I mostly stay 1-2 nights so as not to run out of clean linens and then catch up to it on the next stop. Some hotel brands offer laundry in the room or shared facilities, which will work for longer stays. Generally I can snag a better deal at a short term rental. I don’t want to rent bottom of the barrel hotel/motel brands. It’s bad for business, so I economize with short term rentals.

Alabastrine and Jamie21 are spot-on. Once in a while I get a M/F couple, and they are great, with the same caveats that Jamie already explained. Everyone needs to be aware and consenting. I get the female partner off too, if she is wanting me to do so. I do not target women in my marketing, but I won’t turn away a legit female client. Women using RentMen to hire are rare, but they exist. Almost all of the “women” contacting me are scam bots. The scammers haven’t done their homework to realize they are barking up the wrong tree. It puts me on the defensive right away until I can confirm she is a real person, in the same way I would be cautious with a prospective male client exhibiting red flag behavior. Unfortunately, being a woman is a red flag until I can confirm she is real. I hear a lot of women opine about how they wish their gay male friends would be into them. It’s a foregone conclusion in real life, but a nice fantasy. RM is an opportunity for these women to hire their fantasy with a professional who is either bi, or gay and can do what she needs him to do anyway ie straight for pay. It’s not that far removed from a gay provider being able to perform for a man he finds very unattractive, which we do all the time. By the way, he can find his female client attractive in a general way, yet still be gay, and still do what he needs to do. All of these can be true at the same time. Most people can’t mentally and physically do this, but that’s exactly why you hire a professional. I suppose it’s much easier for bi providers.

Welcome, @Jay_lucas!

This is one of many reasons why I am building my own website. Linking to it from my ad removes all the barriers, paywalls, and bs so I can share with clients the information and photos I want to share. It’s exhausting being beholden to RM.

Average "discount" for longer sessions?
Simon Suraci replied to moonlight's topic in Questions About Hiring
Same here re: $300 first hour, $500 for two hours. I feel this is fair and a good value to both parties. Three and four hour sessions are uncommon. I find clients fall into four camps: 1) Least spend possible, doesn’t want/need a lot of connection outside of doing the deed. One hour. 2) Wants more of a connection, likes the foreplay, buildup, exploration, and stamina. This client hates feeling rushed and wants to maximize his experience. Maybe some want two rounds, or some more elaborate stuff. Two hours. 3) Wants at least half a day, maybe longer, for activities outside the bedroom. Really wants fun and connection together and to be totally unrushed. He wants to do more, and leave room for unplanned activity, spontaneity, and rest, without a clock ticking loudly in the background. This could easily take the form of an overnight, and they usually do. Some do daytime and I love these. 4) Wants a weekend, perhaps several days or even a week, usually to incorporate travel to a destination together. My city is a popular vacation destination, so a few clients like to hire me to accompany them when they visit my city for their vacation. I play sexy tour guide sometimes. The gap between #2 and #3 is more of a leap. A few long term clients figured out over time they can get a much better value and more overall satisfaction from making that leap. 3-4 hours I feel is too short to realize the value of #3, while too long for a typical sex-only session. I suppose going out to dinner before or after would fit nicely in this 3-4 hour range, but fewer clients want to pay for more time and the cost of a meal if that’s all they are getting with the extra time. To each his own. Seldom do clients inquire about 90 min escort sessions. I don’t advertise it as a menu option, but I sometimes entertain 90 min sessions for $400. At that point I feel it’s nitpicking and both parties are paying too much attention to the clock to hit that mark. For some like you here, it’s perfect. Certainly worth asking the question. Massage sessions and Massage / Escort Combo sessions are a little different. I factor in some massage time at my massage rate and some time at my escort rate and add those together to produce my combo rates. Those are already broken down into 30 min increments and thoughtfully crafted to maximize value for both myself and the client. -
Biggest controversy of my lifetime...new Cracker Barrel logo
Simon Suraci replied to samhexum's topic in The Lounge
^Some version of this, yes, in the form of capitulation to their core customer base calling for CB to embrace such attitudes - homophobia being one of many such exclusionary attitudes. ^Definitely not this. ___________ I think what is getting lost here is the leap from CB expressing agreement with values I believe fundamentally oppress various marginalized groups of people (you don’t believe the same on that point, fine)…to hate groups using CB restaurants as a meeting venue. I do not make that leap. I do call attention to the dangerous direction a company like CB takes when they capitulate to customers calling for homogeneity, inequity, and exclusion. Their support of such policies bolsters institutions that DO take more extreme leaps. I can’t see CB hosting hate group rallies any time in the foreseeable future. Such groups need much larger spaces. Maybe catering would be more appropriate. At least CB retains some form of plausible deniability this way. Yes I did, by your request, in your previous posts. I agree, we can’t be explicit about politics, so I removed the explicitly political content. If you want me to add it back, please say so. -

I didn’t say this, and I don’t believe this. -
It takes at least several weeks consistently taking zinc, usually longer. It’s best with a few of the other men’s health supplements like ashwaganda root, maca, and several others. The other health and lifestyle factors make a huge difference. Supplements alone can only take you so far. Regular periods of semen retention make a big difference. A healthy diet makes your loads taste more appealing, as does limiting alcohol, caffeine, and quitting smoking, vaping, and other tobacco products. Good hydration helps with volume too.

Latin Romano’s RentMasseur So he’s a masseur, but I met him by way of a regular client who has booked us separately and then asked if he can book us together in Dallas for a threesome. Romano had never done a threesome before and it was so cute how nervous he was, but I put him at ease right away. We all three had a great time together. His 🍑 is something else. The pics don’t do it justice. He’s cuter and sexier in person. Great body, nice skin, with boy next door charm and an infectious innocent laugh. Great kisser. He takes it like a champ too. During one of our long rounds, he came inside the client while I simultaneously came inside of him, hitting his spot while he was hitting the client’s spot. That was hot. Such a sweet guy. While I can’t speak to his massage skills just yet, I can certainly recommend him for deli services, both the top and bottom bunks. He has been learning English quickly over the past couple years and is easy to communicate with. Spanish speakers will have an advantage, but even in English you might only run into an odd phrase or word you have to repeat or rephrase. No sweat. Until you’re between the sheets…panting with pleasure.

Do providers talk to each other about clients?
Simon Suraci replied to DMonDude's topic in Questions About Hiring
Same here. It’s not a zero sum game. There is room for all of us to do business with clients for whom we are well suited. I refer clients to other providers, and some refer clients to me. Occasionally, clients refer other clients. Many of us providers support one another and encourage one another, build each other up. Even some valuable mentorship relationships form. I have some of these myself in both directions. I continue to learn from peers and men who’ve worked longer in the business than I, and I take time to share knowledge and experience with men needing more guidance. ^You bet your boots we do. A general code of ethics among us is to not share clients’ personal information, unless it is for safety reasons, or when referring. We save one another the hassle of dealing with chronic time wasters, flakes, and of course the more serious cases of violence, stalking, the dine and dash guys, and other serious issues. Clients deciding to behave in such unacceptable ways forfeit their privacy. Concerned you are on some blacklist? Don’t be an asshole, and you have nothing to worry about. Simple as that. -

When a brand tells you who they are, believe them. They did so in the 90s and they’ve been backpedaling and pandering ever since. Bigotry dies hard. It’s been well over twenty years since my last visit. I would never eat there again, if not for the legacy of homophobia and backwards thinking, then for the gross smells that still haunt me today. I remember walking around sniffing out like a weird salted pork stench, but after it has turned bad, with a twist of liver. Liver on its own makes me want to vomit. So nasty. Gives me the shivers just thinking about it. Then they have all the cheesy nick nacks in a flea market you have to walk through. An antebellum IKEA, really. If they were going to simplify the logo at all, I might have gone with a barrel shape field around the letters instead of a diamond style polygon shape reminiscent of Denny’s. Good riddance to the old man graphic. The logo was as cluttered as their flea market. And for those who didn’t already get the memo…I’ve Had It Podcast famously made recent mention of the restaurant and a certain news outlet lost their mind. Of all the incendiary things they say on that show, I’m tickled that this is the one said news outlet latched onto. Fascinating. I’ll say no more. Curious minds might venture a Google on the subject. -
I don’t either, tbh. It really doesn’t communicate his style, approach, or vibe at all. He and I discussed his new profile photo the other day. He says he is getting more contact hits from using a completely different kind of photo. More of an experiment, I guess, to drum up some new business. It wouldn’t be my approach to do this exactly, but I understand provider profiles get stale after a while. Sometimes you want to generate some new interest and doing something completely different will definitely shake things up, if only temporarily. Newell does offer various deli services, to include vanilla, fantasies and kinks, but mostly with massage clients who want to explore more. He took his RentMen profile down a while back, saying it wasn’t worth his time and investment to keep at it, so he hasn’t been explicitly advertising chasing escort work as hard as he has in other periods of his career. He still does it though. I get escort work through RentMasseur, so I get why someone would post photos geared more specifically at niche escort offerings. Who knows. Time will tell.
