In Chicago that's exactly what I did. Some new young Latino said 400. I said, sorry, my limits are 300/500 for 1/2 hours. He immediately accepted my 2 hour rate. Great performance and he wants more hires. The more I'm here, the more glad I am I don't live in NYC. Kids here hear about those prices and think they can get them here. Cute.

I'm waiting to get @Ali Gator's follow up report.

I saw an instance where the "creepy old gay guy" moved in across the street from the kid's (age 20s) family house. They started dating and he moved across the street to live with him. His parents were happy for him. I love it when people just assume the world works a certain way when they have no personal baseline experience. Or that people are as close minded as they are.

I usually donate at Xmas but did an extra donation after the emergency.

Some guys just shouldn't be having anal sex (EDIT like maninsoma said) A friend claimed the following happened to him on Grindr. He went to the top's house, and made a bit of a mess. The top exploded and acted like he was going to beat my friend up. Apparently, he threw my friend's clothes at him, told him to get out of the house immediately, and refused to even let him use the bathroom.

Either way, we need better data. I wish I could get a data dump from that place.

No, on RM ads can often repeat in the same page. Nice try, though.

You acted nice. I don't do anal, but met some providers who, if their clients did that, just walked out in disgust (with the money of course).

He used to post here on the forum, do a search. No idea of his current situation. He told me when we met (and I saw a review once) where a guy complained and outright said he was ugly. What an a@@. His body is definitely not ugly. Unlike many bodybuilders, he's actually nice and showed little conceit.

Where's the data set?

I could care less what the shooter or his idiotic religion think.

The Japanese have you guys beat. They know how to weaponize politeness.

That's who asks me, dumb kids who don't know the business. It's a deal breaker for me, although I keep some snapshots of Grant and Franklin from their respective bills on my phone if anyone asks.

Weird. I once almost hired a famous porn star for 800 an hour. He played around, delayed, said he was busy, then suggested a fair price of 900. I ghosted him. I can afford the money, but I can't stand giving it to arrogant bastards who are economically worthless except for their sexual attraction.

When I was in downstate Illinois, and was approached by a woman who asked if I was saved, I just flipped out my gold crucifix and said I was. That shut them up. My personal favorite theological moment was when an escort complained that another client had shorted him. I agreed that was wrong, and quoted, "The workman deserves his wages." Biblical literacy can be very fun.

I once had a regular who was a SJW and hooked it up to his Christianity, and was always blabbing about how his religion should compel everyone to think the way he did. We got into frequent theological arguments.

On the contrary - ads don't list tongue length, so I find that a wonderful evaluation opportunity.

Yeah we do. Annually. We also used to have to take all kinds of classes on diversity and such, and a DEI manager in HR. For some unknown reason, after January 2025, that guy left, and our CEO claimed we don't have a DEI program and never did....

That's the problem with these maps. Illinois is an entirely red state except for the Chicago area. I've worked in Southern Illinois and it was totally conservative, with a majority of fundamentalist churches. It's amazing. In rural Wisconsin, it's the same, but the moment you get to even a small town, red turns to blue. Guess living with different people forces empathy.

You hit it there - there are members (one already named) who feel no part of any community, and make homophobic-leaning remarks all the time. Nothing sadder.

It happens. "Kissing." Often translates to, "I'll only do dry kisses," or, "I only kiss if it feels right in the situation." Even if they say they're into something, probe with further questions first.

That would be freaky, borderline stalking. I have a regular who texts when he's near me and offers me a deal if I agree to meet him "right away," but that's the closest. If he came to the door, I'd say he was trying to intimidate me into hiring him.

Yes, there are more escorts in Chicago for Market Days. Yes, it's hotter than hell outside right now, and we could barely visit several stages yesterday before several people wanted to leave. And no, my favorite travelling provider who said he'd visit Chicago on Market Days couldn't make it.

In those situations, you need to steer them and the conversation back to what you hired him for. If he doesn't stop, you'll need to be a bit blunt, but do it nicely. Another note, which works if he's being honest - it pays dividends if you spend some time listening to what a provider complains about, nod, agree, and say it's not his fault. If an escort wants to talk about themselves, let them take center stage, and they'll love you for it.

I get the question, but when I was younger, I didn't know much about online providers, nor did I need to look them up. The closest I can think of is an Eastern European twink who was a popular porn star in movies my friends and I watched in college. If I could go back in time with the same libido I had when I entered puberty, I'd probably rent all the New Kids on the Block and the entire male cast of Baywatch. Toss in Mario Lopez too. EDIT: There is a now-retired escort (retired less than 5 years ago). Ugandan. He's an influencer now, but no longer meets up. I'd hire him up as a "personal trainer" and set him up in a nearby condo....
