Decatur Guy

I like having a small circle of regulars (3 to 4), and I rarely have regulars that I actively drop. Various reasons why it ends:
1.  Provider quits the business altogether.
2. Provider moves to another city.
3. Sadly, death one time.
4. Providers changes the parameters of meeting. (For instance, one guy I like a lot wants a week's notice. I'm just not in a position to offer that. Another's price doubled. I just couldn't afford that steep an increase). 

5. Sometimes there's just a drifting away with no real reason.
Now I have deliberately quit reaching out to a few who radically changed what's on offer or stood me up several times in a row or got mad because I met with other providers. But usually if I'm a regular with someone and then I'm not, it's usually a change on the provider's end, not mine.

Anson Mount, who of course does not need the $1,000:

I met with him when he visited Atlanta in late August. He was great. I'd definitely rehire. 

While physical appearance matters to me, it's not the most important thing. I care more about the vibe, the scenario and what they're doing. Plus, I find a pretty wide variety of types attractive. I'm not hooked on a particular body shape or younger/older or one particular ethnicity, etc. So I'm all for porn casting a wider net. 

My ideal porno scene: Two masculine, verbal tops talking a shy, reluctant bottom into having sex and then pushing his limits. And if they happen to be "average Joes" vs. model looks, that's fine.

I rarely hire anymore outside of one regular guy.  The past few inquiries I have made have been, 1500, 1K and 800 for an hour. One wanted 1k with a two hour minimum but the first hour was conversation only then possibly play in the second hour. I completely respect a providers choice on what they set, but it’s insane now. The golden era is gone.  Honestly I really only hire when I go to Europe and use Romeo.  I find there to be a much more realistic mentality overall and a far more local base of choices.  

Perhaps I've changed, but I tend to agree. Prices are up, service is down -- with NOTABLE exceptions, thank goodness, on the service end. 

Same here. I found him physically attractive, but something about the poses in the pics (almost always with sunglasses, almost no close ups) seemed off to me too. I also never even contacted him.

I'd say that's actually about 50% of all ads where I'll just never make the initial contact because something is off despite an initial attraction. 

It really amazes me how unbelievably bad so many of the ads are. 

Well, there you go. I think he's getting all the sex he wants for free anyway. The problem with the $1,000 question. That tends to make you want to name celebs and such. And of course, they don't need a thousand bucks. 

I got a call a couple of nights ago from a provider. He said RentMen is limiting providers to 500 characters in their write-ups about themselves. Which I found odd and limiting -- I told him he might be misunderstanding. But his was not. RentMen told him that the site had always meant to do that but had a bug in that field that allowed more than that. Now it's 500 characters max. 

So I helped him cut his ad in about half without losing too much in the way of key info he wanted to provide. And then I looked at a string of ads. The text is indeed more limited now. Anytime anyone updates their info, the 500-limit goes into place.

My usual procedure:

First, I make the Initial booking. Let's say it's Wednesday night and the appointment is for 9 p.m. Friday night two days later at my place. I tell the provider that I'll reconfirm around noon Friday and then again one hour ahead. I do that for two reasons. One: If he's been burned by no-shows, this might make him feel better about my legitimacy. Reconfirmation usually involves one text: ("Hey, I'm still on for 9 tonight at my place if you are. Looking forward to meeting up."). Two: I've been burned by no shows or very late providers. Checking in one hour ahead usually helps in finding out if he's got it in gear to be on time or not.

If I book same day: Let's say I book at noon Friday for 9 p.m. that night. I'll reconfirm around 5 to 6 p.m. and then again at 8 p.m. 

If I book at say 4 p.m. Friday for 9 p.m. Friday, I'll just reconfirm the hour before. I'll just reconfirm one time if it's seven hours or less.

When I was in Europe (the continent) I noticed men for hire were mostly from war-torn Eastern countries.  This supports my theory that it is not only the desire to leave poverty, but also having the means to be able to do so.  South Americans travel to where it's cheapest for them to get to.  Same with men from the Eastern hemisphere.  We don't see too many escorts from the interior of Africa; not because there is no poverty, but the men are so poor they have no means to leave.

Very interesting data. Thanks for providing it. I was curious so I ran it again and now Denver has 21/89 Latin guys. So a little higher now at 23%. Another data point would be to look at guys who speak Spanish. That's actually a bit higher than "Latin" in Denver at 24/89 or 27%. A few "Latin" guys drop off and a couple more guys come up. Latin is somewhat nebulous term. One guy who comes up as a Spanish speaker but not Latin is KevinCol who puts his ethnicity as black but also says he is Colombian. Probably would be described as afro-Latino to me and probably most people. Just might be missing a few "Latin" guys based excluslively on the Latin tag on RM.
Also generally interesting that the two highest Latin population cities have the lowest number of Latin escorts. Maybe people are more interested in what isn't common?
Thanks for this data though. I find it quite interesting. 

I was browsing ads in a city that has a low percentage of latin people and spotted a relatively high number of latin men one evening this fall.  So, I looked across RentMen and captured some numbers and compared that to US Census Data for those same cities.
