You’re definitely a better person than me. If I see gloves, they’d better be for a prostate massage… otherwise, I’m out the door.

I do enjoy watching certain types of gay porn and think it's pretty hot. And I love this forum since it has some really GREAT porn recommendations.
But on the hiring side, it's not actually what drives me to hire on RM specifically- Even though RM caters to and is intended for a gay male audience it's really the only place I can find reputable and safe providers that might accept female clients.  Where I'm located the websites sites targeting a female client audience to advertise "straight" male escorts have fake listings filled with sexual predators, or "fake" fly-by-night guys looking to monetize their sex life but have no intention of providing any professional service. I think Cowboys for Angels is the one exception, but none of their providers are in my area. 
on RM even the "straight" providers will have taken male clients and gotten good reviews from them, which validates that they are indeed a "professional" escort. If some do porn professionally that just serves to bolster their reputation as an escort, that's a plus but it doesn't increase their sex appeal for me. I'm largely motivated to avoid "fake" escorts and sexual predators masquerading as "straight escorts", so RM is the site I hire from: it's where the professionals tend to be. I'm not saying the RM might not have it's scammers, but they're easier to spot and filter out by sticking to the ones who have decent reviews and their profiles contain information/photos/ links to their social media accounts with longevity to validate that they've been escorting a while. 
 

Yes and I'd be one of them. 
I think you're still right-on that the majority of clients looking through rent.men are male, I was under the impression that most of the straight providers on RM were GFP and that there are a lot of male clients who enjoy both bi and straight providers. Similarly there are also some SFP gay male providers (some on this forum) but when I've asked gay providers on RM and MF if they take female clients, the answer I got was 'no' (though usually a very kind and respectful "no") 100% of the time, so I started filtering Bi providers and had better luck. Some of the Bi providers do get clients who are couples looking for a 3rd (or 4th, 5th and so on) but I'd guess it's not as often. 

Eyes open are always good because it becomes more intimate and engaging.

Does nobody else see (pun intended) the irony here?  The other person can only "call you out" for leaving your eyes open if his eyes are open as well. 🙈 

Thanks for all of your thoughts and suggestions! I will probably have to wear contacts next time to get a better view of my masseur haha

Hi All,
I've searched the forum for this but I couldn't find anything or much on it at all or I'm just bad at searching lol
During a massage when you are turned over and your face is aimed at the ceiling, do you keep your eyes open during that portion to admire the masseur? I may just be self conscious or weird but I keep it closed with some peeks here and there. I do want to look at them most of the time but don't want it to be weird as well. What's a good balance to you and what do you do when you're turned up? Thanks!

Eyes open but don't stare. Lingering looks ok but definitely blink - not blinking is creepy.
Once they start going down on you, there's definitely a "performative look" that both the blower and the blowie should do to at least make some eye contact to signal "fuck yeah, it's on". Than lay back, eyes on the ceiling and enjoy.

Greetings folks...
As you might have noticed, this site has been offline since around mid-day Tuesday.   Our prior hosting provider decided that they are unable to continue hosting our website and had ended service to us.  Unfortunately they did not provide any notification to me about this decision and I was forced to move the site to a new server without any sort of heads up.  This includes arranging for the new hosting company, configuring the new server to meet the technical requirements, getting a copy of our current data, restoring that data (over 300GB of files), recovering the database (over 18.5 million records in that database taking up 11GB of space for the DB alone), and reconfiguring the software itself to run in the new environment.  
While migrating there was also some technical issues that I ran into that required me to coordinate with Invision's technical support team.  So that back and forth added additional time to the mix as well.  
And to pile on further… all of this occurred while I'm traveling for my day job. So I've been doing this while in a hotel in between doing my day job on the road.  
There are most likely several other things that will need to be fixed still and I'm working through them.  For example, email may only be partially working.  I still need to setup things like SPF and DKIM for the new server so our emails don't flag as spam.  There are other settings that might need to be redone to work in the new server as well that I'm not thinking about yet.  (As you might have imagined, I've not had much sleep during this whole process.)
But anyway... you get the idea.  No... we're not going anywhere!  This was a minor setback but we'll continue to move forward.  Thank you all for your understanding and support!

General Overview
The masseur known as Jordan James (also goes by Miles) receives highly mixed reviews from users across multiple platforms and cities. Experiences range from positive to very disappointing, with inconsistency being the most common theme.

Conclusion – Do We Recommend Hiring Him?
Only with caution.
If you’re hiring him purely for a standard, therapeutic massage and are not expecting a warm or sensual experience, you might have a decent session—if you manage to book one. But given the many reports of emotional distance, lack of consistency, difficulty scheduling, and mid-session upselling, he is not recommended for clients seeking reliability, intimacy, or extras.
For first-timers or those seeking a sensual or interactive experience, it’s likely not worth the risk. There are more consistent and client-focused options available.

I think most people here have provided excellent suggestions and advice. For me personally from my most recent first provider experience, I would confirm with the provider what you want to happen before meeting up with them. I was nervous and let him know it was my first time as well. Their RM profile put that they were into kissing on their profile but when it came to me asking if he kissed during the encounter, he said he didn't do it. Just be upfront about what you want and get your moneys/times worth.

You may just want to hire an escort at that point, unless there’s a massage component that only a trained masseur can bring. But from what you’re describing, an escort seems better suited. Literally say what you just wrote. 

HE = Healing Expert
MT  = Massage Therapist
However, neither term is regulated or requires a license, unlike a CMT (Certified Massage Therapist).  I found it pretty useless to rely on one poster's experience of HE or MT to determine if I was going to get the same quality experience.
