Gotta say that I don't understand your marketing model at all. I get to see uninspiring photos of guys who tell me almost nothing about themselves, who provide nothing to inspire me that time with them would be well spent, and I am provided with a disclaimer that says that I shouldn't count on much of anything -- best of luck (wink/wink). What is there to inspire me to ever look at the site a second time?

There’s a 411 discussion in the Deli section about an escort who doesn’t kiss, at least on the first date. It evolved into a discussion about herpes and includes the comment that many escorts “have reservations about kissing.” I’ve been with only 13 guys through RM - all BFE sessions - and I’ve never experienced any reservations. Is my experience unusual? Have many of you teamed up with escorts, especially those providing a BFE experience, who are hesitant about kissing or refuse to engage in it? Maybe I should emphasize a kissing requirement when I arrange times.

Victor - I’d be interested to hear why you prefer cash over credit cards. Do you have any cards?

Yep, but if they smile at me I may reconsider. :-)

As noted by Kurtis Wolfe above, prosecutors have not been inclined to take action against high end escorts. They’re more concerned about sex trafficking of minors and other scenarios that take advantage of people in weak positions, as opposed to adults who are in the business of providing client services. That’s good. One might ask, what about the prosecution of Rentboy’s owner? I’ve always felt that Rentboy flaunted itself too much, with Hookie award celebrations and the like, and perhaps a district attorney thought they went too far. That’s not the case with Rentmen and similar sites. Addressing the disclaimer issue, imagine yourself arguing before a judge or a jury that your client has neither solicited sex nor engaged in prosecution. You are left with the following position: “Your honor (or members of the jury) it’s true that my client publishes pictures of himself naked and erect with his ass exposed at tantalizing angles; that he describes himself as a versatile bottom who loves men of all shapes and sizes, and advertises that he’s into cum, anal, oral and spanking, and that he charges $250 an hour for his time. Rest assured that he was not talking about providing sex to others. He solicited a valuable interpersonal relationship and experience and didn’t seek payment for anything having to do with sex. That latter point is obvious because the money was put on the table after he advertised himself as a sex god, but before he engaged in sex. ” --- Good luck with that. Saminseattle provides helpful thoughts. Overall, the good thing is that legal authorities do not appear to be concerned about the Rentman scenarios. Escorts should feel free to use the disclaimer on the off chance that it may be useful and if it makes them feel better. But legaleze isn’t going to change the obvious facts.

If you have a good relationship with the guy, it could be that he recognizes the value of an on-going business deal which will result in assured revenue, but gives you a discount on his usual rates. He may be receptive to your proposal for a discount — maybe not. But if your relationship is a good one, it may turn out well. Discuss it with him and explain your financial issues verses your understanding that he needs to make a living. You’ve been hanging out together long enough to be able to have an open discussion.

Do you believe that most escorts believe that the often seen escort disclaimer (e.g. “I do not accept money for sexual acts. I am compensated via contributions for my time only. Anything that happens during that time is a decision made between two consenting adults”) really provides legal protection, or is it something included because they’re not sure or because so many other include it? I’ve practiced law for a long time (although not criminal law) and I’ve never felt that a prosecutor who’s intent on pursing male escorts would be dissuaded by such a disclaimer - and I wouldn’t bet on jurors buying it either. One escort I know insisted that it was effective. I thought it best not to ruin the evening with a negative debate and we moved on to more enjoyable pursuits.

Tats don't do a thing for me and I usually move on once I see them in a Rentmen photo. BUT, one of my favorite escorts has several and photos of him smiling inspired me to look past the body décor and contact him. I've always been pleased with myself for getting past my initial reaction. Time with him is well spent.

Nothing to report, but kudos to him for the helpful identification in photo #2. Captions accompanying videos on Rentmen sites would also be helpful. Who's doing whom?

Anyone know anything about https://rentmen.eu/Kalebb in Seattle? He signed up on Rentmen in August, but no reviews yet. If he's legit, he could be inspirational. :-)

I have included the escort's rates in my five reviews. I note that all of the reviews published this month include the escort's price. I'm not prepared to do perform an extensive analysis, but my recollection is that many, if not most, reviewers include the price. I wonder if many who don't provide it fail to carefully review what's asked of them in the review form.

It would be cool though to be in a position of no risks at all and have the pleasure of looking someone in the eye and saying, "Have you met my friend Monstercock?" :-)

I've never asked an escort for his name and we remain anonymous in most cases. My two favorites, who are regulars, told me their names after the first few sessions. The one issue I wrestle with is what to call them in the rare situation where we're together in public and run into someone I know. I'd be inclined to introduce them using their real name, rather than use their escort name and risk having someone look up the name of the young guy with me (the older gentlemen). I haven't discussed this with the two escorts. I should.

I've been with him twice in the past two months and enjoyed every minute. A really good guy who's willing and able to please.

I don’t want to start some cruel, ongoing discussion, but I am genuinely curious - why the hatred toward Nabors?

Ah, the arithmetic is inescapable. :-)

IMPRESSIVE RESEARCH SIR!! I’d love to hear a brief summary of how you discovered these videos. I can’t imagine how I’d do it.

Remember also that testicular cancer could result in the loss of one. There’s a well known gay porn actor (can’t remember his name) who lost one to cancer. Someone once joked about it on an online discussion page and he responded - justifiably pissed - and referred to months of pain and chemo treatments.

And 2 out of 3 Rentmen reviews give him only 1 Star.

Most of Puerto Rico is still without power and water and no phone service. The infrastructure throughout the island was destroyed. Wish them well, and go someplace else.

Never met him, but his #7 photo in likely not him. It's a photo that's been on the internet for quite a while and can be seen in The Forums Gallery section SEE: https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/pecs-nips-more.115431/page-1199. I don't believe the abs and navel are the same as those in the other photos. Maybe he thinks using photos of someone who looks like him is an OK practice. I’ve never liked that approach.

Well said, by both you and Tyler. I’ve had hot, sweaty and intense without connection. Jacking off is intense too. But nothing is as good as an experience with a connection and it’s great to find an escort worth meeting with again because of that feeling.

Gosh. I can see you're frustrated, but the Forum is full of potential clients and good marketing is a better course. It might have been more productive to answer the questions and concerns and paint a good picture of yourself for all to see, rather than starting with "ask me yourself." Now you have some folks who may not contact you because of it. That's unfortunate because there's a good chance you're a nice guy.

I'm a little hesitant these days. My favorite escort was laid up for three weeks with a bacterial infection from rimming. He went to the hospital thinking he had appendicitis. He spent his recovery period drinking a lot of broth and lost a lot of weight. Considering the amount of sex he has, maybe his time had come and the risk for me isn't great, but a scary time for him!

Reminds me of the old story about the Greek snd the Italian trying to impress one another. "Ah, the Greeks founded Athens", "Yes, but the Italians created Rome." "Well, the Greeks built the Acropolis." "Yes, but the Romans built the Coliseum." "Hah!, the Greeks invented sex." "To be sure, but the Italians introduced it to women."
