Apologies as i thought there was a thread on this gentlmen (https://rent.men/MASCBRAZILIAN) but currently can't find it. Now assume Pic's were used with different profile name potentially? I feel like I'm having deja vu regarding this conversation.

I know it very well. As it pertains to this, actually is my favorite activity so if you find some great ones let us know! Unfortunately the gentlemen i know who excelled at it have retired from this pasttime in general, but I'm totally in the market for it as well.

Likewise for me (though i don't know what Growlr is) hahaha but I do occasionally see profiles that appear on both Seeking and RentMen.

I can't fully satisfy all of your criteria in terms of being able to provide specific appropriate information because i have NOT personally met him in that context but i can give a little anectodal commentary throughout the CY 2017 - 2019 timeframe pre-Covid. And to be clear i don't think there is any debate as to whether he was a "porn star". There's plenty of evidence that he filmed for years. I initially reached out to him over RM messaging and at first he was non-responsive to a couple basic questions, (though it was fetish related and not specific about meeting up). So it'd be fair for him to easily put the inquiry into the speculative non-serious bucket. I tried one more time and he did respond but it was then during the timeframe that he only took appointments with his former boyfriend as they were publicly stating in their profiles that they were only meeting clients together. A few months after that i randomly saw he and his boyfriend at a public outdoor mall chilling out walking their dogs. In my estimation he had put on some weight from earlier pictures and video's but it wasn't bad or horrific he just looked like "Joe" regular guy but attractive and handsome nevertheless. And in my definition of a "Twink", i didn't get that vibe at all. It was kind of a more relaxed jeans and a hoodie but with metro-sexual styled hair and sunglasses. But he was interacting pleasantly with people who were stopping him to play with his dog. Several months later a former legit porn star and former escort (retired) that i have known made a comment to me that he could resume his escorting and may be in my town over the next couple months and unsolicited brought up JJ as someone he could be meeting others with and he asked if i knew who he was. I told him that i did but he hadn't responded to me. He said if i wanted to i could check again because he knew him somewhat as they were in Porn togehter as contemporaries and he knew me and thought we'd prolly be a good fit. I then looked and saw that JJ's profile had changed and he was no longer with his ex-boyfriend and was seeing clients. I later reached out. He was way more responsive and communicative (a tad expensive) but then for my scheduling i wasn't able to find a time that could work as it wasn't a priority. To me this is summed up to saying that i bet that the answer to all this is that YMMV.

Just a point of clarification. I think it was Gawker and then the Daily Caller that initially ran these articles versus The Daily Beast? In fact the Daily Beast was very critical about Gawker creating an sensationalist scandal based more on the premise of homosexual relationships (albeit through escorting) as the scandal. https://www.thedailybeast.com/male-escorts-shame-on-gawker. And of course that's different than if David Geitner had been a Public figure specifically being hypocritical and dangerous publicly advocating laws or adverse consequences against such activites or lifestyle.

I have found that often by simply logging into the RM.eu site that you can see the verbiage of reviews. So if I'm so inclined and interested in the effort sometimes i actually check the same profile name on both sites and sometimes see the commentary on the ".eu" site. However some of the functionality of the buddylisted profiles is limited. Regarding scubbing bad reviews i can't say how common or prevalent it is or isn't or still goes on but i can say for sure that it has happened in the past. I know this because for profiles that i may be interested i usually Buddylist them. Periodically i check general activity and even if the gentlemen's profile isn't in my city when there is a notice of a "new review" i just check it and make a mental note if it is an extreme negative or low rating. I don't use that to be the sole or declarative deciding factor of decision making or automatically believe the Escort was fake or bad or not worth exploring further. (Too many variables and situations). But i do know that a week or two later negative reviews have later been removed. (Though sometimes Positive ones are as well).

Shitty. Sorry to hear you wasted time. Or perhaps dodged a bullet.

FWIW profile lists 6'6.

Despite the relative "limitations", hahaha. (Though he does say on profile he's straight), were the pictures in the Profile totally him?

Just curious if anyone may have met this gentleman https://rent.men/TallMasseur. And yes hahaha; 1) I know it is a new profile from the beginning of this year. 2) On RM there were quick reviews almost weekly from when the profile was created which can appear suspicious. 3) The profile name includes "Masseur" in it and I didn't post this in the Spa section. (That was intentional since it was a RentMan ad). Not trying to be rude at all but just asking around just in case anyone had any extra perspective or perhaps has seen the Pic's used before? Be well and safe everyone.

I think one of my big regrets in this area, hahaha. A few years ago when he had profiles on both RM's i had communicated with him briefly and he was very cool. But i got busy for a bit and then was on the fence at the time and also wasn't entirely clear what i wanted out of meeting gentlemen in general so i passed. Then a bit later i decided i wanted to meet him but his RM profile was gone. About a year later i randomly was seated with some friends at a restaurant and he was with friends at an adjacent table. (Although i obviously can't confirm how our time may have been together in different circumstances), I can confirm i royally screwed up big time in terms of him having the great looks in person and personality vibe (based on his interactions with his friends) that i 100% find attractive. My bad!! Ugggh!!

Just checking to see if anyone has met https://rent.men/Trainerstrainer

Another shameless self-bump to see if anyone has met recently https://rent.men/Trainerstrainer

Still curious if anyone has met hahaha, Back in LA https://rent.men/Reiik_XXL

Regarding why he might put in a photo, he speaks to that makert explicity in his profile copy so not surprising he'd put a photo. Discreet, handsome companion I am a discreet, handsome companion that will help you escape from the drone of our every day realities. Let’s meet for coffee or a meal and discuss how I can best create that escape for you—I know you need it. Maybe you need spanked with a leather belt? A Dom for your sub personality? My feet to fulfill your fetish? A date for a night out? Whatever it is that you need, my priorities are always your comfort and satisfaction. I stand at 6’2”, 6’3” when my hair is grown out and pomped. Don't feel disappointed if I am not in your area, I travel upon request.

Do you recall roughly what the other Profile name was>

Bumping. In LA apparently at least over this weekend.

I feel your pain and dilemma. I had a similar situation with a long time SA dude as well that was/is a good situation. I'm not 100% sure but would put it in the 85% to 90% sure category that he lifted an expensive bottle of cologne after one meet up. I honestly think that particular evening however he feared and wasn't sure if I had been indicating that I wanted to end the arrangement completely (versus taking a small break which i had been contemplating). In any case in subsequent conversations i made it a point to mention a couple times subtly that i was missing a bottle of cologne without directly indicting or blaming him as again not 100% sure he did take it. But i did also then affirmatively decided to take a break for a few months. (Perhaps passive aggressive but it wasn't something dicky or out of the blue or vindictive). But i think he got the point and certainly in the end it wasn't worth it to lose a few months for that. We're cool and picked up again after a bit as if nothing happened. I do although make sure in advance not to leave anything i really truly value laying around and easily accessible just in case. It eases my mind that i don't have to worry about anything including him feeling like I'm watching him like a hawk at any time or there's any over anxiety regarding a lack of trust.

Sorry to hear. If you look at his RM unfortunately you can see his 2 Reviewer's accounts were created on December 2nd and 3rd respectively. His accont was created on the 5th and then had those two positive reviews on the the 12th and 14th. Very suspicious or incredibly coincidental?

According to profile he's in the LA area (which 18 months ago or so) i could then confirm was accurate then.

Thanks. Looking forward to it!

Hey so glad you had a great time with him. Congrats! Thanks for info. I tried to meet with him earlier this year but our schedules didn't align as he ended up canceling one of his trips. Who else have you had a great time with you can recommend?

It is.

Yes i had exact same experience regarding Buddylist name change. FWIW, I did communicate with him briefly in terms of his willingness to potentially travel cross country in the future as things settle down and he was responsive and pleasant.
