I'm already fully vaccinated, so although being with someone who isn't vaccinated is slightly risky, it's an acceptable risk. Besides, I stopped hiring in December 2020 because of the winter Covid wave. It's long enough.

Strange...I've had the same experience with providers....

That was it. Thanks! Too bad he's not escorting anymore.

Guys, maybe someone can help me remember a now retired (or at least unlisted) from RentMen. He was from Las Vegas, and his RM was "Mario" with some other word after in (it wasn't Mario-X in Chicago). He was Latin and a professional body builder. Called himself a bottom and seemed willing to do anything. Does anyone know what happened to this gentleman? Last I heard from him was when he was going to visit Chicago in Dec. 2017, but I wasn't available. Unfortunately.

It's been a month since my second Moderna vaccine. I haven't hired all year yet, since I'm currently staying in a rural area for the pandemic (I return to Chicago in July). I've decided to finally leap back in. In a weekend or so, I'll make a quick trip to the nearest city with a good RM selection. As long as I'm fully vaccinated, there should be no risk. Besides, after this long, I'm feeling like a horny 14 year old kid.

Can any providers confirm or deny this list's accuracy? https://sexworkerhelpfuls.com/f/sex-work-approved-payment-options

I've had some problem with this. I like providers to get "vocal" with me and repeat several phrases. I have trouble finding providers who are willing or able to do this. One great retired bodybuilder simply said he couldn't act.

Unfortunately, the closest to LE I've hired has been a security guard. A nice young firefighter or lifeguard would be nicer...

I should have hired Matteo when he was "new" in Chicago. Unfortunately, he's grown a big head now, and it's harder to book him. Jacesron I've wanted to hire for years. Right when he started, I contacted him, but he was uncertain about how things worked, so I passed. Last year, I tried to book him, but once I told him what I'm into, he ghosted me, so I guess he's not interested.

Does he have facial hair? Does he kiss?

Traditionally I used cash, and I'm going to continue to, although I do have some caveats. First, during the pandemic, my bank's local tellers were closed, and the ATM was limited to several hundred a day (I forget the exact amount). That really limited me, so I generally used apps during the pandemic. Now that the tellers are back, I can use cash easier (not to mention the ability to get bills larger than 20s). Second, if it's night and I don't have cash on me, I'm not walking to the ATM for a wad of cash. And since I like 420 before hiring, making a last-minute drive isn't a safe option. It's good to plan ahead, but you never know if you'll see a good visitor pop up one night on RM without warning. Finally, I'm worried about getting my cash withdrawals reported. Taking out as little as 2K over a series of withdrawals in the U.S. can cause the bank to file a SAR against you, without informing you. And that scares the s**t out of me - more dangerous than using a CC! I have too strong a sense of decency to take back money I already paid via an app. I had a former regular take me for several hundred (paid half deposit, but he got 'roid rage and left early). I just let him keep the deposit - it taught me an important lesson anyway.

Like too many bodybuilders - straight, doesn't kiss, and has too much facial hair. A shame.

Agreed. Kissing is important to me, but I've had a self-described straight guy refuse to kiss after I specifically ask if it's okay beforehand. Not fun. Personally, I believe gays who chase after straight men have issues they haven't sorted out yet. And that self-described straights who _do_ kiss and bottom are really bi - they're just catering to this audience. Either way, it's a scene I prefer to avoid.

Occasionally, I like to hire 2 guys at once, but it's very rare to find RM ads for couples, or that offer them. For providers out there - how many are you are able to find a friend to bring along, and how much advance time would you need? Hiring 2 separate providers off RM is risky since they might not get along.

I'm a muscle fan, but the younger the muscle, the better. Major twunk fan.

I'm fully vaccinated, but I'm staying at my place in a rural area. My Chicago office won't open until at least July, and I'm not moving back until then. God, I wish there were more escorts in these areas. RM lists precisely 0 escorts for Madison, Wisconsin, the nearest city.

I just wish I could find younger, clean shaven massive bodybuilders. Beards are all too common. Not to mention straights who won't kiss.

I once paid 400 for a one-hour fetish session with a straight bodybuilder. It was the most I ever spent for a single session, and I'm afraid to say, it wasn't worth it.

I strongly prefer providers who handle it themselves, even if it's with an increased fee. You ever order someone an Uber, then send screen shots so they know the car and license plate? Or have a provider miss the car (since they're not paying, they don't care about cancellation fees)? PITA. I'm not paying, as someone said, to be someone's social secretary. If a provider is from out of town, I prefer they adjust their fees accordingly. It's a hard stop for me if someone agrees, then only later demands an Uber. I just cancel- that's the same as demanding extra money at the last moment. Common scam. Also, extra Uber fees should only be for established, reliable escorts. I've encountered kids with no reviews who think they're worth 300 plus Uber. One of them thought that if he held out, I'd get horny and agree to his Uber an hour later. Cute. As far as "cheap" is concerned- how many times has someone said it? If I pissed away my money like that all the time, I wouldn't have money to hire. And it's more about my self respect than the money.

Reese too.

I'd love to hear how you hire on Grindr safely and anonymously.

I have a friend who also hires. He's straight, but it's fun to exchange stories.

Everyone and their brother is doing OnlyFans right now, but that's just posting videos. It seems like some OF people also don't have any demos, so you have to pay for a month just to look.

....and once more....the Pink Pistol fires a shot at me...

Too skinny for my tastes. If I'm paying a large rate,, he better be a body builder.
