  1. You might be able to search by this criteria on your insurer's website. If not, the above suggestions should steer you in the right way. I have Kaiser so I cannot provide a personal recommendation to someone outside the Kaiser system, even though I very much appreciate my primary care provider. I think the biggest problem is finding a provider who is taking new patients whom you like.
  2. I would like to amend my previous post, just to clarify: I don't like it when a guy shaves decades off his real age and uses very old photos. However, I don't necessarily think that 55 is too old to escort or that men that age cannot still be very attractive. I'm not judging whether Tony Serrano is a good escort or still looks good. I only wanted to point out the age discrepancy.
  3. About 15 years ago a San Francisco escort named Starchild was arrested when he went to the East Bay to meet a woman who contacted him via a Craigslist ad. He decided to not accept a plea deal and took the case to trial, where he was acquitted. I'm not sure why they singled him out for a sting or even if he was singled out, but I never read or heard about another male escort in the San Francisco Bay Area being set up in a sting.
  4. I don't. He was one of my favorites two decades ago. Maybe he still looks good, but his state age in the Rentmen ad is way off. He was doing porn in the early 1990s so there is no way he is in his late thirties. IAFD has his age as 55.
  5. I've never seen a porn scene filmed in a coffin, though I won't be surprised if someone references some movie where that happened.
  6. When I moved to San Francisco in the mid 1980s, both the Castro and "Polk Strasse" neighborhoods had a lot of gay bars. I'm not sure when most of the gay bars in the Polk area closed, but even pre-pandemic there was only one left (The Cinch). Back when I lived in the neighborhood we had The Giraffe (video bar with lots of cute guys), QT (I think some considered this a hustler bar but I went because they frequently had great live music), N Touch (seemed to be focused on Asian and White men looking for each other), Polk Gulch, White Swallow, Rendezvous and I'm sure many more I've forgotten. Not that other neighborhoods in San Francisco haven't lost gay bars, but basically the Polk transitioned from a largely gay district to one with no distinct identity. Edit: I just remembered another one on Polk -- Kimo's. If I'm not mistaken, this one had frequent drag shows.
  7. That review also mentions the photos aren't accurate. The photos belong to a model with an Instagram page who last posted from Spain a few days ago. I wonder whether he knows someone else is using his photos in an escort ad.
  8. I am glad you put clients in quotes because I have to wonder whether these are actually masseur-client videos or just videos of a guy pretending to be a masseur with a variety of other muscular, young men.

    It's all rather lame. I think a lot of these guys might make some good money in the short term, but is there a sizable enough ongoing market that's just content to look at shirtless guys teasing?

    That there are people willing to spend money on something as silly as a brief cock flash isn't surprising. 45 years ago the guy who came up with the "pet rock" idea became a millionaire. I have subscribed to some men's content, but I want to actually get decent quality porn for my money. I recently saw a clip of someone who really grabbed my attention physically (extremely sexy from head to toe), but basically all he did in the video is pose with a friend and act like they were going to have sex. To which I say:
  11. I agree. I noticed Chillrick's ad pre-pandemic but didn't get around to hiring him. What's interesting is that even before shelter-in-place, he seldom logged into rentmasseur.com while most guys who advertise seem to log in daily in order to indicate that they are available. I don't know if that means anything, but it struck me as odd.
  12. This story doesn't have enough information to provide good feedback. The word "fetish" can mean a lot of things. Is your fetish something that could have harmed the escort? If so, I don't blame the guy for leaving. Writing that you "lost your temper" so he threw $70 back on his way out makes the scene sound dangerous for the escort to me. Maybe I'm having difficulty with math at this early hour, but your suggestion that he only "stole 102 dollars in time" even though he left a half hour into a two hour session makes his rate sound extremely low. Maybe the guy is a scammer and you're right to feel cheated, but I don't know that based on what you wrote so far; for all we know he kept an appropriate amount of money for having traveled to your place and spending a half hour with you.
  13. I just did a quick Google search and found that some Instagram providers put age restrictions on who can view their content. So that's mystery solved part 1. That same search revealed that Instagram might automatically let people view such profiles when they know you are over 18 based on data they have, which might be from your Facebook profile. So maybe this page is loading for people who have provided their dates of birth on Facebook but not for people who have no date of birth listed? I have my DOB on Facebook (not visible to other people, I think/hope) and my Facebook/Instagram accounts are linked. As to not seeing a button to acknowledge that you are 18, I'd say that a number of things could be going on: Sometimes people install ad blockers or other anti-tracking add-ons that will prevent proper functioning of pop-ups like this. For example, I had to whitelist my bank's website because a Firefox addon was preventing me from being able to transfer money. Some web pages just don't play nice with some browsers (though it doesn't seem to be a browser issue here). I am not going to spend more time researching it, but I guess it's also possible that Instagram just isn't designed the way people are assuming (an acknowledgement button to let you in) but rather requires you to have your date of birth in your profile to view restricted pages. I don't know whether it's possible to enter a DOB on Instagram since I just used my Facebook profile when I created my Instagram account, but I assume there has to be a way to indicate your age there since they have functionality to restrict profiles to people below a certain age and they don't require users to have a Facebook account to sign up for Instagram. My suggestion is to enter your DOB on Instagram and/or Facebook and try again if you really want to view this guy's page. He's cute, but there are a lot of other cuties on Instagram so if you don't want to provide your DOB then there are plenty of other men to oggle.
  14. It opened for me on Firefox without any prompt. There are some photos of him in swim trunks but nothing X-rated. (I'm not even sure X-rated material is permissible on Instagram.) It seems weird that there would be an age acknowledgement button.
  15. It depends on how much you want to meet the guy. While rescheduling twice isn't considerate, it seems like he's at doing it in advance. My gut reaction would be to just move on, but if I really wanted to meet the guy and he and I lived in the same city so no extra planning was required, I might give him a third try.
  16. That still doesn't make sense to me. How can one judge how much business one might get in any particular city when one only offers one day on which to book? There might be a lot of business in Los Angeles but the prospective customers who aren't interested in September 4th would simply not bother contacting the advertiser. If it's marketing/fishing to see where it would make most sense to travel, it would make far more sense to simply say something like: "I will be traveling the western part of the US during September; please contact me for inquiries." Then if 40 guys in LA respond but only 5 in Seattle respond the advertiser gets the information he's seeking.
  17. Doesn't make any sense to me. Who travels around the country and spends only a day at a time in each place other than perhaps a flight attendant or pilot?
  18. VeganMan has been discussed before -- not very favorably, but his ad is at least legitimate.
  19. Reminds me of Facebook a few years ago. Even though I posted tons of gay content and liked lots of hot, muscular men, Facebook seemed intent on pretending I was straight.
  20. Don't drink the Apple Kool-Aid. 5,400 trackers installed on this guy's phone in a single week. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2019/05/28/its-middle-night-do-you-know-who-your-iphone-is-talking/
  21. Google and Amazon certainly harvest your activity for marketing purposes, but you gave me a chuckle when you claimed that Apple doesn't have such conflicting business interests? App store? Music/video purchases? Accessories purchases? Device purchases?

    Rhyheim (a) posts full length clips, (b) generally has good camera work and lighting, and © both he and his scene partners seem into one another. His is definitely at the top level of self-posted content assuming, of course, you find his look and proclivities exciting. Like all men, I realize that different people have different types but I think Rhyheim is very hot.
  23. I agree. Another approach I've seen in a few ads is men listing the specific days and times of day they are available on a monthly basis. As a prospective client that seems great to me since I can know in advance, for example, that a guy is never available before 5 pm or doesn't work certain days of the week. I assume some men do this either to give themselves a more predictable work schedule or because they have other things that result in them being unavailable during specific hours.

    1. Some people like financially supporting the people who produce porn. If everyone watched everything for free there would quickly be a dearth of new content. 2. Even if you only want to watch porn for free, it's not always easy to find every scene you want to view, to view the full length of the scene you want to see, to view the scene in high resolution or to have the scene download at a reasonable speed for viewing offline.

    I've never subscribed to Only Fans, just Just For Fans. I don't think I'd subscribe to anyone unless I knew he was posting full length clips. Once you subscribe you have access to all of the previous videos posted, so it's usually worth it to subscribe to someone for a month to see how good his feed has been over time. If it's good enough, I'll let the autorenew happen. Otherwise I cancel before the initial period is over.
