Years ago, I met both of them (together) in Buenos Aires. I was introduced by a mutual friend and I didn’t know at that time that they did porn. They were pleasant enough but I found them physically unattractive. Both had taken steroids and were very bulky, almost square in shape as neither is tall.

No experience to report. I hope you’re up for handling all of him, as at 1.97m and 93kg he’s certainly a big guy. And I like that he states that he does all the things I enjoy. I hope you have a good time with him.

Very well put! ;-)

I don't have experience to relate, but I used to see Dean at the gym. His photos are reasonably accurate, in that he is a muscled middle-aged man. I do hope that you will take each guy out for a 'test drive' (hourly session) before you commit to an overnight. That can be an expensive hiring if you find that the guy is not compatible and doesn't meet your needs and wishes.

I find this thread fascinating. As a European, I had no idea that people gave cash as wedding gifts. I did know that traditionally Asians were reputed to accept cash gifts at a wedding but I didn't know that this tradition had endured in America.

Your suffering and trauma would merit an episode of "Frasier" @Keith30309 If you continue like this, you may encounter the dreaded celibacy! I recommend you stop over-analysing and start enjoying the attentions of handsome young men - I know I do .

Why the "brief crisis of self-identity", @Keith30309 ? In this particular context, Successful men are highly alluring to Attractive men. And who is to say they are wrong? ;-)

I apologise @snogaholic I posted before I drank my first strong coffee of the day ;-) And I did indeed confuse you with @swedboy89 who has asked about Iggy twice in this thread

With respect @snogaholic I don’t understand why you keep asking this. If you want to know if “he is for real” - assuming this is not just idle curiousity and you wish to hire him - why not make direct contact with the guy? He’s looking for clients and so he’ll respond to a polite enquiry. If I wanted to hire, I would ask him for some recent photos, saying that I’ve seen some of the pics on the internet, and want to be sure he’s the guy I’m meeting. I would certainly not ask him directly if he’s Iggy!

I'm intrigued that the escort took the time to respond, and did so in a civil manner.

You may be right @bnm73 To me though, the photo just looks typical of the work done by Rick Day. Rick always presents beautifully muscled young men looking smooth and blemish-free.

42 years (me being older) and ongoing

Well spotted @swedboy89 and Iggy is indeed in Europe this month. One question: why do you say "started escorting"? ;-)

Ridiculous. I bet there are many handsome guys who would meet your needs better.

As I'm sure you're aware, service-providers can quote what rate they like. It's upto you the client to decide what you are prepared to pay. FWIW I feel you did the right thing. I recall that 10 years ago I played in a group with a very fit American guy in LA. He seemed to enjoy bottoming for me, and he brought up the subject of us getting together when he visited London. Two months later, he called me to set up a date. I said I was happy to see him but I first needed to confirm if it was a paying date. He quoted me his price in LA which was about double the (then) London rate. I politely declined.

You're right @Tarte Gogo that rate is way above usual rates. Perhaps he was asked for "something special" or perhaps he doesn't like to work often? Certainly I find 'roided guys unappealing so Billy Essex does nothing for me. A man would have to be movie-star handsome for me to consider that rate.

Perhaps he's too busy counting all the $20 bills to actually do anything?

How wonderful. I think it's a marvellous public recognition of how much you mean to this younger man. Congratulations!

Thanks @marylander1940 , I've not seen this pic of Ben Godfre before. He was a stunning physical specimen back then.

Don't get too excited @Avalon It is a gay group, just as there was - until very recently - a similar dining club at Cambridge https://www.cambridge-news.co.uk/news/cambridge-news/cambridge-university-peterhouse-adonian-society-14509287 Despite the over-heated comments by some who never attended, the formal dinners were largely companionable where young gay students could meet each other...and in some cases, meet young academics.

"I seriously though(t) twice about starting this t(h)read and it's obvious to me that I made a mistake." @Epigonos I respectfully disagree. I find the thread and what others have posted very interesting. As a European, I always cringe when in the US I hear American parents over-praising their small children for routine effort and accomplishment. I've often wondered how the children would perform in school. Luckily this American habit has not (yet) been widely adopted by Europeans and private schools still demand discipline and hard effort from their pupils.

Why on earth would anyone want to buy Paddy OB dinner before getting horizontal? Somehow I doubt he's going to prove a wonderful conversationalist or an insightful intellectual... Personally I don't rate him so I just cannot imagine paying to see him masticate

William Higgins has described the activity and the price on their website. As I recall, a willing (if not necessarily photogenic) volunteer dons a balaclava before going in front of the camera and lending a helping hand to, and possibly kissing the lips of, the athletic young man who’s erect and being filmed.

@Deadlift1 I described the 2 gyms where I have membership as “smart” because each markets itself as high-end, has luxurious facilities and an expensive annual membership fee. Neither gym offers daily passes except to members wanting to bring a friend, and those are limited in number...tho strangely I‘ve never been refused when I request a guest pass for a visiting handsome male model.

Yes, I had that happen too. Sending a message costs nothing so I feel some guys think it’s worth doing anyway, just in case.... In a similar vein (of “well, you never know...”) I always respond politely even if they are out of range. As it happens, I also always responded politely if the guys were promising and local but said they were unsure about gay sex. I had several encounters where such guys turned out to be nice young men who on a first date didn’t hesitate to get naked and suck me off without spilling a drop.
