Capitano

This is weird, his profile doesn't show up when I do search for NYC. But when I click on the link above, his profile shows up and is active, and says he is in NYC, wtf?

I had no idea he was a former porn star, I found out only later, after my very good experience. It seems that he has found his calling, I think he does this really well and enjoys it, and that's just great to see. Some sensuality and he massaged me in the nude, it seemed to come natural to him (duh!) , but nothing extravagant or sexual. I will repeat when our paths cross again. And yeah, he IS hot and masculine. Mature and athletic but not overly pumped or ripped, just the way I like them ;-) Very professional too, he texted me on his next visit (super-polite note) but we couldn't make our schedules work.

It must be that his ad is on and off (is that a bad sign?), I didn't see him when I was doing my NYC search for the upcoming trip. Glad I saw him now, one more candidate to put on my list Having said that, he does list "therapeutic" so is he completely unskilled or is it that he just tends to emphasize sensuality? Maybe he operates under the assumption that that's what all he clients want anyway? And if you want to tell me about the sensual part, I'd love to get more detail via PM ;-) THANKS!

THANK YOU! The ad really does have that "too good to be true" vibe. I love this forum!

Many Eastern Europeans who advertise "sensual" are "do it yourself" guys, so the very high rate does not guarantee anything. Just saying... Also, from what I remember from another thread, there were some questions whether he massages naked.

Jake is the most articulate, smart, and polite masseur I've ever met. In addition to being really built (actually, too much at this point, for my taste, of course) and handsome. And he is super-professional so always on time. If only more masseurs were like him, I'd get most of my massages at home. The massage is on the bed but somehow with him it works!

Going to NYC soon (can't wait! :-) ) so I thought I'd refresh this topic. I'll definitely see one or two of my favorites, Brad, Anthony, or Yosi, but would like to "broaden my horizons" and bring a new masseur into the mix. Here are some who have caught my eye but I can't seem to find any comments here on the forum: https://rentmasseur.com/SAMD https://rentmasseur.com/Marcco In addition, this one is on my list, given the positive feedback here: https://rentmasseur.com/Samgl BTW, does anyone know his home country and native tongue? Just curious, PM me if you know. Ivan is also a candidate, you can tell I have a "love-and-hate" thing with Eastern Europeans ;-) https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/19807/ plus comments here seem generally positive. Then, I've had Sean and Chris on my list for a while now, I might try again, our schedules didn't work on my last two visits: https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/13755/ https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/35781/ Finally, this one has mixed reviews here, I might take the plunge, unless someone stops me :-) https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/37459/ https://rentmasseur.com/AndrewOo Any feedback, thoughts greatly appreciated!

Re-bumping, going to NYC soon, might try to schedule. PM me if you prefer.

I saw him in New Orleans and the experience was God awful. The massage was bad and the vibe even worse, out of shape straight guy who thinks he is "all that" and that it is every gay man's dream to be massaged by him. Apparently, his brother is a very successful masseur in DC and he got him into m4m massage as a good gig. I got so turned off by this dude that I have no desire to see that other DC Jake, they look too similar.

I saw him over 2 years ago, and here is what I wrote in another thread: Miles is indeed strictly therapeutic, and he goes the extra mile to make that clear, using a towel to keep you covered at all times and not getting anywhere close to your glutes and other "tricky" areas. He is a very competent masseur doing high quality work otherwise at a surprisingly low rate of $75 per hour. I went for 2 hours and paid $160, including a $10 tip. I am usually way more generous but was underwhelmed by his lack of courage, or willingness, to tackle the areas that get sore because of my running and my chronological hip flexor problems. He is also very sexy and cute but I found that much of the attraction goes away when he talks, as he sounds somewhat whiny and affectatious.

Well, I could live with that, but these guys are doing 6 one-night stays in a row, WTF?! Then, there is the ad that suggests only one guy (Alejandro), but then they talk about 4 hands. To me, all that screams STAY AWAY!

They are spending 2 days in their 7th city, the first 6 cities are only 1-night stays. There could be some mysterious reason but to me this seems like a bad signal. If they are good they should have more than a single day's worth of clients in a city like St. Louis or Nashville. And loyal ones too, who would be alienated if they are unable to catch them during the 4-6 hour window they have because they are constantly on the move. I call this hit-(the market)-and-run. Next!

Looks like rentmasseur is trying to crack down on the stupid iTunes hoax. Now, if we could do something about city-bating, this seems like a totally bogus "travel schedule" to me: https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/37798/ Feb. 18 - 19: Nashville, TN Feb. 19 - 20: St Louis, MO Feb. 20 - 21: Kansas City, MO Feb. 21 - 22: Louisville, KY Feb. 22 - 23: Indianapolis, IN Feb. 23 - 24: Memphis, TN Feb. 24 - 26: Dallas, TX I have no interest in contacting the masseur when I see shit like this even if I might be interested otherwise. Come to my city and then we can talk.

WOW, funny how I was looking at another one following the same pattern: https://rentmasseur.com/alyan

Thank you, I am going to join you in your fight! Do you send them an email and when they respond present that to rentmasseur as evidence?

Going to Indy soon, it's fascinating that more than 50% of the ads on rentmasseur seem bogus. This iTunes scam is taking over the better of the two masseur sites we have left :-(

No, that’s why I asked. I am glad he is not a DIY guy, I hope he doesn’t hang out with a certain Eastern European crowd in NYC too much. My first experience with Alexitre, who has a very similar ad and vibe, was pretty good but then they spoiled him :-( ... so he is now just a very hot cash extraction machine, nothing more.

Never tried CjDC but tried massage by his boyfriend a while ago. One of my worst experiences ever, the dude is, or at least was, an effeminate self-centered diva, eternally unhappy about having to do what he does, because he thinks he is, or should be, a "model." It is interesting that the boyfriend has added a rent.men profile in the meantime, while CjDC started from escorting and added a rentmasseur profile. I hope they are happy together but I wouldn't get anywhere close.

I could go on and on about one of my most awful experiences ever but I'll just say AVOID. ;-)

"And I'll push that shit ton to the limit by quoting $175 per hour, hoping the client would find it awkward to look for exact change, so it will end up $180." To me, $160 is the upper limit and, at that level, I'd better see all 3 boxes checked at rentmasseur. And the only way I might be able tolerate a higher rate is if the masseur is absolutely insanely hot, while still checking all 3 boxes.

I prefer cash, it's nobody's business to track what I spend it on. I also suspect many masseurs prefer cash for tax and other traceability reasons, but that's their thing, I don't care, I tend to give cash even to those that take credit cards etc.

This could be a new trend, the same old shit (hot pix, random collection of 3-4 cities in America, generic text of the ad, stats that don't seem consistent) but now they don't even bother to get a US phone number or to pay for the ad: https://rentmasseur.com/Onos I guess whoever contacts them via email will be asked for the stupid iTunes card code and never hear from them again. The puzzling part is that there obviously are some people who go for this. PS The dude in those pix is either taller or lighter, there is no way he could be 5'9" and 185 lbs., the pix are almost certainly stolen, if it were him he'd know his stats.

Is he one of those "now you can finish yourself" dudes from Eastern Europe? That's the ultimate sensuality killer for me, and at $160 it's pretty outrageous. Many of these dudes are good masseurs so they should stick with it and charge like $100 without any promises of sensuality, especially if they are straight and hate doing anything sensual anyway.

Used to be in NYC. Hot, straight, friendly, competent masseur, difficult communication, will probably agree to massage in the nude but don't expect much sensuality or interaction. He is one of those "now you can finish yourself" Russian dudes. I have no desire to go back, the vibe just wasn't there. And it's way overpriced for what it is.

Yep, I know this may be shocking to some, but there's fake ads! The next relevant question is how to recognize one, to avoid wasting time and maybe even money. The scams are clearly evolving, that's why I created and keep posting in this thread.
