It does make one wonder why no reviews. See post number 3 (above) where @Jimbosd11 says he twice text him with no response. Typical and why he has no reviews?

I did not say that stats have to do with privacy even though my post started out that way. My post emphasized a possible vulnerable client furnishing a photo (and other personal identifying information) to an escort in connection with hiring from a male sex site. Of course, if a client furnishes only his stats, there would probably not be a privacy issue. It is the inclusion of a photo that changes the formula.

Speaking of Palm Springs being a friendly city for our group, take a look at this first-time achievement: http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-me-palm-springs-lgbt-council-20171115-story.html

It is not logical to compare a bonafide company's verification of a customer's data (for security purposes) versus an escort verifying a potential client for a sexual hire! The two events do not fit together.

Yes, that is likely so. However, when they meet guys from grindr, there generally is no expectation of a financial transaction or gain.

How observant - I am impressed.

Once, while on a trip to China, I had occasion to shop in various stores. One of the stores was a meat market. In the meat market, I saw lots of dead chickens with feather plucked off, hanging from an overhead wire. The plucked chicken heads were aiming downward. Seeing dead, plucked chickens, with their plucked heads and plucked bodies hanging down, reminded me (and it still does) of a pubic shaved guy. Needless to say, I am not in favor of shaving the pubic area. Isn't is wonderful that we all like different things?

Not only wanting privacy. Many escorts ask clients for their stats. Some escorts even ask a client for a photo (as noted already in a prior post above). Many clients have sensitive high profile jobs/occupations. It is not difficult to foresee damage and embarrassment that could befall a client if proof got out that the client voluntarily released his photo and personal information while "fishing" via a gay sex site. Refusal to furnish such data could be for job or occupation survival.

He did a lot of things. He was also an author and a singer and much more.

After all this discussion of dying at or living to various ages, it seems appropriate to mention a (now deceased) famous movie star who died in the seventies (George Sanders) who had it all figured out when his life was to end. On 23 April 1972, Sanders checked into a hotel in Castelldefels, a coastal town near Barcelona. He was found dead two days later, having gone into cardiac arrest after swallowing the contents of five bottles of the barbiturate Nembutal.[22][23] He left behind three suicide notes, one of which read: Dear World, I am leaving because I am bored. I feel I have lived long enough. I am leaving you with your worries in this sweet cesspool. Good luck.[24][25][26] If we have any classic film buffs here, Sanders once starred in a movie called The Kremlin Letter (1969), in which his first scene showed him dressed in drag and playing piano in a gay bar in San Francisco. Sanders also had a starring role in the classic film, All About Eve - Bette Davis et al Much of the above information is taken from Wikipedia

You might have visited a site he formerly had when he was using a different name and photos, but the same rentmen account. Many escorts change names and photos but keep the same rentmen account. If you ever accessed any of his prior "ads" it is possible that he blocked you from one of those visits. The block carries over to new and updated fake names the escorts use while retaining their same account. If you are blocked but did not previously access his current ad with the current photos and/or name, consider yourself lucky that you are blocked.

Here is a link to something unusual in Sao Paulo. Most locals have not been to this exhibit. The exhibit (building) was "inspired" by New York's Empire State Building - Of course, the building is smaller but is based on a similar principle - taking elevators and stairway to the top of the third tallest building in the city for spectacular views of the city. You need to bring ID with you but the elevators and top visit are free. It is open only during the day. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altino_Arantes_Building (from the above link) - "The Banespa Tower is one of the best-known skyscrapers of São Paulo. In the highest point of the building, accessible from 33rd floor by 2 sets of stairs, there is an observation deck with views of up to 40 km."

Speaking of sad things, there was an actor, a long time ago, with a similar name as the OP - Jon-Eric Hexum. While playing around on the set of a movie he was making, he accidentally killed himself (at age 26) with a blank gun from the set. He was an extraordinarily handsome man. Here is a little u-tube clip that shows a little about him and his gorgeous looks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFh6HjRiELM

Your recollection about the quote from the New York Times article is extraordinarily accurate. Job well done! "It may be the ugliest, most dangerous city you'll ever love." Here is a link to the full article which will tell the OP about a few more things to see and do in Sao Paulo: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/14/travel/14hours.html

This is what happens after "the fire goes out" on a relationship, be it a paid relationship or not. It is time to move on and find someone else.

Thanks for remembering that I am gone from the U.S. a lot. Much of my off shore time is spent in Austria and in South America. I have no plans to retire in either place. I must be careful not to stay in one country for more than 180 days cumulatively each year (not necessarily consecutive). Where I visit, each country allows 90-day tourism visits unless an extension of time request is obtained before the first 90 days expire. One potential problem with staying too long in one specific foreign country (more than 180 a year) is that the foreign country may consider you a resident and make you subject to their tax laws. Mr. Trump says that our taxes in the U.S. are too high. He should check out the rules and rates in Austria before he makes more wrong assertions.

That is good to know -

Six months since the scheduled meeting. Nothing reported. I hope he is okay.

More common than one would think: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monorchism Even Adolf Hitler was supposedly without two in the scrotum.

There is no question that you reduce the chance of getting a flake. However, it does still happen. By way of example, there is a long and ongoing thread on this site about a popular Las Vegas escort who has great reviews but also has numerous reports of no-shows and peculiar behavior. But, by and large, you are safer picking from someone who has been reviewed here.

Several months ago there was a thread that discussed an ad that contained these same photos The ad kept changing names and access links. The person placing the ad admitted that he was reading this forum and thread. Each time a post was made disclosing the new screen name and access link (that he changed many times), the person would change it. It looks like he is back again. The part that surprises me is he has 16 positive reviews on rentmen. We all know that negative reviews on rentmen can be deleted. It is possible that the 16 positive reviews could what remains after deleting an unknown amount of negative reviews. Considering the guy changes his name and access link so often, one would think that he would steal different photos to use in his bogus ads. That way, he would not be caught by us as quickly as he is now.

I agree. However, if you have a distant or close relative who did something illegal or was suspected of doing something illegal, the authorities could come back to you in order to help locate said person (since some of your DNA matches whoever they might be looking for). The subject person could be someone you only slightly know or not at all, but is related, nonetheless. My DNA, is harmless as I have military and other occupations where my background was checked and is on record with State and Federal agencies. I am concerned about my DNA only to the extent that someone with related DNA may be a reason I might get involved in an investigation over what another person might have done or is suspected of having done.

I have not taken the test. Therefore, I do not know what is required as documents to identify the person furnishing the DNA. Therefore, is there any reason that a fake name could not be submitted to the lab to test the DNA? Payment could be made by an unidentifiable negotiable instrument. The results, I assume, are sent via e-mail. A dummy VPN could be used to set up a dummy e-mail address. Would this work and privacy would be maintained? I don't think I like the idea of DNA being vulnerable to possible future abuse by law enforcement or any other agency or entity. Does anyone who took the test think that it is possible to remain anonymous using the above described method?

Well said. Let me add a little something more from a wise old man who had similar thoughts: “Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend, Before we too into the Dust descend; Dust into Dust, and under Dust to lie Sans Wine, sans Song, sans Singer, and — sans End!” ―Omar Khayyam
