I guess I'm still stuck on one thing I read in this thread: For an overnight a client would rent a separate hotel room for a provider? Unless the client simply doesn't like to sleep with anyone, whether that be in the same bed or the same room, I don't understand hiring someone for an overnight but then having them not be with the client.

My issue with your first paragraph is that you seem to be saying that it's reasonable for a traveling provider to hide his face so he isn't added to a vast database for facial recognition but it is okay for him to just use some other man's face so he is added to that database instead. Maybe that's not what you meant since you also mentioned blurring their faces and cropping photos, but the part about not immediately rejecting someone who doesn't use his own photos just caught my eye. I previously would have agreed with you -- if the guy who shows up more or less resembles the photos, I wasn't upset. Now I just see it as someone who is willing to create potential legal problems for someone else he doesn't even know in order to make things easier for himself. There's no way I'd willingly support that kind of behavior.

Baldness is hot on the right guy. The problem is that not everyone has the right head shape and facial features to carry it off, and the lack of hair can turn an average looking guy into an unattractive guy. Worse, however, is someone who tries to hide the fact that he has a large bald spot by doing a comb over or having long hair on other areas of his head. Bald or extremely short hair always looks better than someone trying to hide his bald spot.

I still remember walking halfway up some guy's steps (he asked me to call when I was near) and him opening the door to reveal a man probably 20 years older and 50 pounds heavier than I anticipated. I told him as I turned around that I was unhappy that he wasted my time by misrepresenting himself. He actually had the nerve to clap back at me, I guess because he's used to guys just following through with the appointment or paying him for nothing, neither of which I intended to do. If it's just a matter of the reality doesn't quite live up to my fantasy, I will likely continue with the appointment.

I'll be somewhat of a Debbie Downer and insert this reality check lest some readers assume that every "masseur" is going to engage in oral sex with them. If you know you want more than a massage, communicate with the masseur in advance about what his services include. Some guys really just do massage, and some others do massage with a happy ending that's limited to masturbation. Don't assume that every masseur will let you rim or suck them or that they will do that to you. I have hired a lot of guys who advertised as masseurs who ended up having oral and anal sex with me, but I'd never assume that someone with only a masseur ad is open to that level of engagement. To answer the question in the first post, I'm not concerned about cleaning out my mouth after rimming someone but I only rim guys when I have no sense that there's a cleanliness issue (i.e., no bad smells or tastes). If I'm not satisfied that he's extremely clean, I don't put my tongue anywhere near his hole.

Sorry -- cannot resist posting this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtF2C1gpLSc

I think what he meant is that people are posting stuff like, "He is sexy" without even identifying who "he" is. When there are multiple names mentioned prior to that post, then the post is meaningless due to that lack of specificity. This happens on a lot of online forums. Unless each poster specifically identifies what their comment refers to, a thread can become a bunch of meaningless posts.

Before the widespread availability of PReP, I remember frequently seeing advertisers have different statuses on different websites (e.g., HIV Negative on Rentmen but HIV Positive/Undetectable on BBRT). I sometimes would see the same person's status change back-and-forth (one week Positive and the next week Negative), and the same thing happened with Safe Sex practices, too (sometimes Safe Only, sometimes Anything Goes). It really drove home the point that instead of believing what was in a profile, it was important to make choices about my own behavior independent of what any given man said about his sexual health and practices.

I'd choose response number 1. As far as I know, it is possible for providers to just not include this information in their ads so if they don't want to disclose their status honestly then they should just omit it entirely.

His profile is expired and he appears to have last logged in over three weeks ago.

I don't share your assumptions. I cannot imagine being a customer of any business -- and that includes a man working independently as a masseur -- and asking them to give me something for my birthday unless they advertise that they do that for customers. (For example, both Peet's and Starbucks give their regular customers free birthday drinks.) I have had "regulars" offer me something special for my birthday, but those offers were unsolicited by me.

I can confirm that this just worked for me -- using Firefox, no less.

It isn't the browser, it's the IP address being in the USA. Rentmen blocks people in the USA from reading the comments unless a VPN is used to hide our location and make it seem like we're elsewhere. The reference to the browser making the difference is simply that some browsers work (like Google Chrome) and others don't (like Firefox, which just forces the user to click the "Enter Rentmen.eu" button repeatedly and never loads the ad in question).

I get it, but I think you are likely missing information because of this. A lot of guys run ads on both Rentmen and Rentmasseur and therefore might be discussed in either the Spa or Deli. I've definitely seen discussion of more than massage in the Spa.

Maybe you didn't search properly? Here's a previous thread about him when he was somewhere else (definitely the same photos in the Rentmasseur ad linked there so it's the same guy). Thanks @maninsoma, threads combined by CoM Mods.

I thought Viagra's only use was to help get and maintain an erection when being sexually stimulated and also, perhaps, shorten the refractory period. I don't think it has any impact on libido itself, so it isn't going to make you want to jack off.

I think that by taking the part you quoted out of context that you misunderstood the intended meaning. They weren't saying you couldn't know what you wrote above; they were saying that you couldn't know that they needed to read what you wrote today.

I'm confused. Are you admitting that you stole money from him which you did not repay in full because he felt sorry for you at the time and agreed to accept less than the total amount owed? If so, then the way to make it right is to repay him today, not keep posting about how you're a man of your word, you weren't contacted by him, you did what was agreed to, etc. Your posts are probably more damaging to your reputation and appeal as a provider than the allegations against you since you seem to be rationalizing that it's okay to steal from people if you can manipulate them into feeling sorry for you in the moment.

The problem with inflation calculations is that the more expensive something is, the greater the overall added cost will be if the same percentage is applied. For example, say a client made $30 per hour working full time in 2000. That would have meant an annual gross salary of $62,400. At that time, typical escort rates were $150-$200/hour where I lived, and lower priced escorts were easily found on sites like Craigslist. Just calculating the higher cost option, the difference between the escort's hourly rate and the client's hourly salary was $170. There's been about 95% inflation since then, so assuming the client has the same job and his salary has only increased the rate of inflation. That would mean his salary is currently a little more than $58/hour while the escort's is about $390. That's a difference of $332. Most people actually get raises more than typical inflation (whether due to changing jobs, getting a promotion, etc), so let's say the client makes three times as much as he did in 2000. That's still only $90/hour, which makes the difference between the escort's hourly rate and the client's salary about $300. Looking at the math in this way, it's easy to see how hiring has become more expensive for a middle class or working class person in terms of share of their disposable income. I didn't post the above to argue that escorts shouldn't be able to set their own prices but rather to explain why some clients' perspectives might be that, at current rates, many providers aren't "worth it" for them. Cost isn't the principal reason I drastically reduced my hiring, but I'll admit that as rates rose and my experiences were generally diminished (probably somewhat due to me being less attractive as I aged but also, frankly, more providers entering the market simply to make a buck with seemingly no motivation to actually focus on the clients' experiences) I started feeling like most of my hires simply weren't "worth it." Paying someone hundreds of dollars an hour should result in more enjoyment than one can have with one's own hand.

I started the process in my mid to late fifties.

I'm not sure whether posters can edit their own thread titles, but if you can maybe you should edit it so the name is spelled correctly (currently says "Carlis") so people will find this thread if they just search thread titles. I've seen a few scenes with Carlos and his body is stunning. I sure would enjoy bottoming for him. I wonder if he's really available as an escort, though, since the ad has already expired. Maybe he's just using Rentmen as a way to promote his Only Fans?

I'm curious as to how/why this happens. I prefer dark mode and every once in a while there are posts where the only way I can read what was written is to change to light mode or to highlight the entire posts which sort of makes the post legible. I assume this is related to a choice made by certain posters but I don't see anywhere that someone can force the site to use black text even if the reader is using dark mode. Here's an example of a thread where this is happening for me. The first post is illegible in dark mode but the subsequent posts are legible, and if I switch to light mode the first post looks like the following posts (black text on white background).

When I was actively hiring, I hired my regular generally once per month, another regular a few times per year when he was in my area, and then would sample other guys at a rate of one or two per month. I almost never hire anymore for a variety of reasons, though I was ready to make my first hire in a couple of years recently until the guy changed his plans and didn't visit my area.

I'll admit that I only watched through Brazil because I got bored. If the images aren't too scrubbed looking (not realistic looking skin), they have other distracting artifacts like exaggerated folds between the eyes or on the forehead or overly stern looks. There's also a much stronger homogeneity in these images than I think exists in reality. I generally continue to be underwhelmed by AI. I'm told that it's only a short time before it eliminates a ton of jobs, finds a cure for cancer, etc, etc. Yet when I type a query into Google it's AI search results frequently contains details that I know are incorrect. As they say, garbage in garbage out. Back to this slide show of fake allegedly "most handsome men," I certainly wouldn't have come up with men who look like what I saw during the first minute.
