Bumping this if anyone might have any 1st hand experience?

He's hot. I'm sure he has his reasons for the tats especially if you look at coiffed eyebrows, hair, background etc.., he seems to be very deliberate. And although I'd never get tats let's not downplay that body painting/decoration/alteration is universally accepted to be the earliest form of art expressed by our human species and has been going on for several, several thousands of years well before us in every culture known to exist and will be for millennia no matter our current cultural best efforts of cynical judginess.

I appreciate the sentiment and applaud the effort. But there are some perspectives that might be helpful to provde some context from someone who lives in LA and was in an evacuating warning area. For anyone who would like some information regarding some Fire related facts in California at the large macro level. Like discussion of budgets, water reserve systems etc.. you can PM if you like and I can provide a link. Regarding some context specifically to things that happened in Palisades and Eaton Fires specifically there's been ad hoc comments about a range of things and certain elements wanting to take tid bits of information and trying to oversensationalize for specific unrelated cynical purposes. There's way too many examples to discuss but I'll mention a couple. 1) "Fire Hydrants" had low and little water pressure and/or were dry in some areas. Yes some firefighters commented about that in local news. That was used as outrage. Not saying that it isn't a problem but the initial assertion was that the LA system screwed up. Fyi, Wildland firefighters don't use Hydrants they use water tenders. The fire hydrants in city infrastructure isn't built to fight fires that large, but yes of course hydrant's water supply is obviously absolutely critical. But was inconveniently not emphasized (in some quarters) was in that particular situation much of the reason hydrants of the few in question were low for firefighters was from an unusual surge of residents initially trying to hose down properties, at the same time Commercial buildings with smoke detectors their internal systems automatically kicked-in to drench building interiors, coupled with a large swell from residents as they appropriately evacuated, but also turned on gardening sprinkler systems full blast. All totally understandable! Not assigning blame at all but that contributed to some local fire hydrants "being low pressure" when firefighters were battling. Just pointing out that many took the low pressure in isolated areas as something representative of grossly negligent all over versus potentially understanding a confluence of other complexities. (And yes personally I have many many friends who lost homes in these and other areas.) 2) I'll also add another example related to the assertion that the City was ill equipped and incompetent by not immediately putting up Airborne helicopter assistance with water drops. I'll just add for perspective that Firefighters from neighboring areas privately tell people that besides the fact that it was absolutely too dangerous to fly those helicopters in 60mph - 90mph Hurricane gust like winds. (Personal side note, i had significant wind damage to property). In their professonal opinion not only was it absolutely too dangerous, it wouldn't have been in any way effective regardless that first night. They gave this example; a) Imagine trying to direct your piss onto a specific object on the ground. b) Now add that your pissing out of a window more than two stories up. c) Now add that the window you're pissing out of is moving in 3 dimensions upwards, downwards, laterally and diagonally. d) Now add this is all being done in ~80mph winds. Have you ever spat outside your window when driving fast down the freeway? Did it hit the ground intact? It would have been as they said "pissing in the wind". Now yes let's focus on recovery.

Yeah good memory. Indeed that was RM profile that I was referring to and had met and tracks with estimation of ~7ish years ago and last login per expired profile was 6 years ago.

If you said something close to the name I'd remember it haha. Used to have profile of RMen which I can mentally visualize pics but forget profile names. Experience was he'd pre-screen you to determine his comfort level and potential mutual activities so in that case very much YMMV and I'm interested in way more limited range of fun than most/majority here. After his screening we met and had good times. Profile listed "Bi" but agree I think that was primarily marketing driven, more of a muscle workship recipient type and limited G4P. Further context. This was prolly ~7 ish years ago and hasn't had a RMen in years. Totally makes sense to me he'd only be on MF at this point.

Interesting all and good info to hear the wide spectrum of perspectives. I would only add in my very limited personal experience that the "Findom" profiles/discussions etc.. to me have been ~19/20 year olds to early 30's social media Gents who promote themselves as "Master _ _ _" (whatever name, fill in the blank). They had Insta but now mostly "Twitter/X and OF/JFF" accounts and primarily just want "Subs" to send them money for texts, pictures, and maybe custom video's etc.. with teases of potential meet-ups. (Yes I understand limitations of communication regulations of some platforms). It comes off as them really just phishing for "weak minded Subs" to instantly be impressed/thankful of the allure of being dominated merely by their "Straight-Masc-Alpha" personae. A Findom dynamic being the top of the food chain to them. It's very quick transactionally oriented and almost specifically by definition to be antithetical to a careful, deliberately slow, nurturing and mutually respectful dynamic as others have experienced. Again I'm not meaning to debate the authentic "pro's and con's" when properly constructed but more how I've experienced it being marketed.

Seems like profile expired a bit ago.

Does he only have the MF profile or also RMasseur as well?

Kind of a mystery -

It does make sense to me and is understandable. It's not cringe. Everyone's friendships and relationships are different and unique to each other. For me I wouldn't do something like that for a variety of completely different and personal reasons. But with that said I know that in the moment and during the time my friend (and/or friend group) would be trying not to whoop and holler too much and would be fist pumping happily egging me on! Friends would be telling the essence of the story laughing joking for weeks, months, etc.. And in the future at hopefully some perfectly timed opportune moment, I'd come clean and tell them the goof was on him/them! We'd all further keep giving each other shit like we always do, laugh about another funny story/situation and happily move on to collecting more funny life stories. Years later i could hear them saying/laughing "remember that time when "GT Mike" was so desperate he hired someone! hahaha" Don't get me wrong though! A different friend and friend group could be bummed that I thought i needed to do that. Their ultimate reaction would be to give advice and try and help find partners. My point here is that something like that comes down to unique situations and personal dynamics.

Recently heard 700 fwiw. Seems to quote whatever he's feeling like at the moment.

Nice! Congrats. What city are you in? He travels quite a bit

Could be wrong but when summing up all the commented input and my experience i'm coming to conclusion it's really only about driving traffic to his socials and online paying subscribers versus info and services provided in RM profile.

This weekend? Profile lists LA. In past communication has been very spotty and unfortunately has quoted double market rates though

Cograts it worked out well for ya. What city were you in?

I'm not an expert but potentally have an idea for ya. You sould know that the Cash Surrender Value of your policy can be used as financial leverage into another Insurance product. Given what you've described you potentially could take that amount and convert it to another type of Life Insurance Product that has a Death benefit, (which you may not care about if no dependents), but also have flexibilty to alternatively use it if towards Long Term Care. It's a Life Insurance Policy with a specific "Long Term Care" Rider. If later in life you feel secure that you won't need to fund those type of expenses, you can borrow a significant portion of the money from the policy. If done properly virtually tax free (and then never pay yourself back) using those proceeds however you like. Upon passing the unpaid portion of the loan is covered by the balance of the death benefit.

So thanks all. I think my confusion really has been that when i meet gents i do from RMass, Rmen and SA. So have found a fairly large cross section of folks with different expectations, experiences, and reasons for being on 1, 2 or sometimes having profiles on all of those sites. Some haven't specifically said or called me "Daddy" but have seemed to naturally assume that I think I am. Some want to hang out beyond meeting up for private DL hangouts. I sarcastically will say "yeah right you wanna hang-out off the clock?" And then will say it's nice and ok to say that, but they don't have to in order to get more business. I make it clear that in ordinary circumstances if we met out at a restaurant or bar they wouldn't want to personally hook up". And they say very genuinely, "how would you know that? I'm not into typical major scenes". A few genuinely seemed somewhat hurt at my reaction/rejection of the notion that I don't believe that this could make logical sense to me. They know I haven't in past or am asking for more interaction beyond our scheduled meets. In fact one who genuinely seems to really want to hook up said, "Hmm, i guess basically you are straight" bummed out. My point is that I know what the dynamics are and am fine with it. They know hanging out beyond that is "off the clock", and besides maybe picking up some dinners like friends is all that would happen as extra consideration. Is it weird for me to say, so I guess the situation is that you personally like Daddy's ?? (meaning without big expectations of significant change in compensation different from just that might happen with friends). I don't know if that is an offensive thing to say insinuating it's all an act just to get more cheddar haha. My frame of reference is that I thihk they mean a public "Sugar Daddy" type of situation which i totally understand and get. They insist it's not that. I don't want to be disrespectful if maybe some authentically prefer older gents in their real personal life.

I'm actually quite serious about this seemingly funny inquiry. Can someone explain to me what is typically meant by the term, "Daddy" and/or "Daddy Issues". Does it mean more that a young person is looking for an older gentleman more so to be taken care of financially? Or does it mean they are interested in older men for more personal psychological reasons and legit personal preferences? Obviuosly like most things there's a spectrum and blurred lines. But seriously I've been confused when a younger person says, I really prefer "daddy types". Are they being complimentary or seeing purely a financial business transaction hahaha? (I'm totally not offended if it's 95%-99.5% purely financial), but I'd rather skip the posturing. But lol sometimes I think some of the gents kinda are being sincere and my response (being in disbelief and dismissive) seems like I'm being a dick and somtimes doubting myself as to what the term really means! haha

I got $400 quote. Possibly Black Friday special

Created profile "today"? I guess at some point a profile has to be legit "new". But.....?

I have zero sensitivity with my nips. In fact if played with I'm self conscious and is a big turn off (versus just neutral). Have a professional play friend who tells me his are so so sensitive and get him off easily but I don't know if it's just professional courtesy? As a result I don't know how hard, soft, long, etc..I should play with them as part of the overall mix to try and legit please him when fooling around haha cuz it feels like nothing to me and don't have a reference point haha

Glad you had a great time. How would you estimate his physical stats? Like height/weight?
