I've said it before in other threads, but not in this one... I hardly ever ask, but I for one really appreciate a picture or two. It's not for evaluation purposes; it's so I can have that small measure of familiarity ahead of time. At some level, everyone has an innate discomfort about strangers, and knowing what the person looks like ahead of time helps to mitigate that. Sure, I can go ahead anyway--that's part of the business, but it's just really nice when it's not a totally cold intro. People have pictures on their LinkedIn profiles too, because people are wired not to fully trust what they can't see. It's not like they won't do business with someone who isn't hot enough. This is also why I like to chat a bit before the first meeting. The meeting is going to be a lot more fun if we establish a bit of familiarity and comfort ahead of time.

It's also helpful to mention your RM name! (Maybe not for people who have an auto-reply message), but sometimes I have trouble keeping track of which text message threads go with which RM threads.

🙋‍♀️ I definitely appreciate it. A picture is great too. I don't usually ask because I don't want anyone to feel judged. But it's easier for me to get comfortable with someone if it's not a complete surprise. And I think that tends to make it lots more fun.

I'm hoping to work my way up to at least ShakeShack! 🤣 But that's sort of what I'm saying about these Platinum guys... They're going for volume. They're definitely not The French Laundry.

It's an interesting topic--the "premium" providers--the "instagram models". I've interacted with a few of them on behalf of clients trying arrange group stuff. They... don't seem like very nice people. It's hard for me to imagine the sex being very fun, no matter how chiseled their abs are. Am I wrong? I may be new and inexperienced, but it seems to me that success in this business is having regulars. There's no need to have deposits for regulars. There's no need to pay for the RM Platinum plan (which is super pricey), if you have regulars. Is it just me, or do these guys not end up leaving their customers satisfied. From the outside, it looks like a revolving door of one-timers.

Someday, I'm sure I'll start hiring providers. And when I do, it'll be for morning stuff. Why is morning sex so unpopular?

Depends on how far out: Later in the same week? YES! 100% Please do. It really helps us. More than that: Usually this comes with a reason, like travel, or the hubby is going out of town. It's great when it works out, but I usually assume odds of it actually happening are less than 50%. The reason why the percentage is so low is that there seems to be a significant portion of the population that likes to waste the time of escorts for their own amusement. I've heard so many intricate stories about future plans, and then they ghost when the day approaches. I hear similar stories from other escorts too. I'd love to know how many of these long-cons are straight-up lies vs people who sorta considered maybe hiring, but will never work up the nerve to actually go through with it. But it really does suck for us. It's the worst part of the job for sure.

Poor grammar? Well there goes like 80% or RentMen 🤣 That said, I just wanna call out that the RM chat app doesn't auto capitalize for some reason, at least on Android. Anyone else notice that? Sometimes I just can't be bothered to fix it.

I couldn't disagree more with this. For those who are starting off a bit late, those who haven't found their way through using the bars or the apps. Escorts make great 'training wheels'. People are fucking mean on the apps. And let's be honest, bars aren't the places to meet new people that they were in decades past. Start on 'easy mode'. Gain confidence. Then do the platforms/bars/apps.

Yeah, I guess I imagine myself as the top. I tend to try to find tops that look a bit like me.

Do tops have favorite porn star bottoms, and vice versa? I'm a top, and a lot of the porn stars I follow are tops. Maybe it's a projection thing? 🤷‍♂️

One of the most unexpected things about being an escort for me is how often clients want to rim ME. I'm a top, so in the past, I've been the one doing the rimming. I've been rimmed more in the last month than the rest of my non-professional experience put together. This also means that I've been completely unprepared (aside from the normal level of basic hygiene one would expect from a provider, of course). Anyways hats-off to my clients, it's been amazing 🤯

Yep! I'm getting a fair amount of that now. Love it! No Law & Order yet. That's the dream!! 😄

I recently did some numerical analysis on RM profile views, which leads me to believe as much as 1 in 3 searches are for Bi/Straight escorts. I was shocked. I guess I could make a lot more if I learned to like the Vajay 😆

The more you tell us, the better we can do! Not everyone likes the same thing, so the term 'better' is a bit subjective.

No way! I shouldn't be penalized for having big balls. Obviously, it's from the pubic bone to the tip, along whatever curve might be present 🍌

I agree with the diet part. I think there's something to having the "good bacteria" there. I use deodorant, but I don't soap my pits in the shower. I started to notice that I'd smell the worst a few hours after scrubbing. I think it helps to let the natural biome of bacteria develop there. It has a scent but isn't obtrusive.

I was a third in a relationship with two daddies for a while. I used to come over and then immediately go for a run around the neighborhood with the other top (in Florida heat). We'd always come back absolutely dripping. The bottom would stay at the house and wait for us to come back from running, and he never let us shower first before initiating stuff. It was hot af. Although fresh sweat is definitely less rank than day-old. I've been to a "Stank" event in SF too. That's too much 🤢

I'm trying to get some higher quality shots for my RM profile, so I'm looking for a gay man who's going to "understand the assignment" 😆 I'm having difficulty getting any responses through social media and email. Maybe they get a lot of spam?

I'd say most of the time I would pass on something it centers around some red flag about the patron's ability to pay.

Might I suggest using the "available now" feature (on RentMen)? When I turn it on, I take it pretty seriously, and try to respond to everyone within 15 minutes or so.

+1 for cash

It was so much fun 🥰

Can I volunteer? 😁 I love groups. In my experience with groups it does matter if you have the right ratio of tops to bottoms. 3:2 tops to bottoms is optimal, in my opinion, so the tops get to take a rest every now and then! But in your case, maybe you'd like to be the only top or the only bottom? I don't think you'll have much of an issue with the providers being able to work together--as professionals, they should be able to make it work. And they should make sure you get plenty of attention as patron. I do think making the rules clear in advance is a must, but it's probably fun if there aren't too many so you can see what possibilities arise naturally. There are so many fun combinations of dicks and holes!

I've only been doing this for a few weeks and already been reached out to quite a bit for these types of gigs. It seems crazy to me too, but it seems to be a thing.
