Yes, but it wasn't intended that way. He was a visiting escort, and we had been canoodling for a few minutes, when he suddenly broke down sobbing, and admitted that he was in town for a family funeral, and realized he couldn't perform. I held him in my arms until he could regain his control, but he was so obviously distraught, that I spent the rest of the appointment time comforting him and counseling him. He didn't ask for his fee, but I gave it to him anyway. He called me the next day and offered a free session to make up for it, but I was no longer available.

Had a great two hours with Dillon last night. Super personality, affectionate and assertive, nice kissing, fascinating personal background, all muscle with a ton of strength and confident in what he’s got. Published pics do NOT do him justice. Hope to write a longer review when I can collect my thoughts.

Well, in a week or so I hope to have a report for you. I will be a first-timer with Dillon and have no multiple identities.

Just a word to the wise.
 
There are 4 reviews. The first two are by the same person, less than two months apart, which I thought was not allowed. The 3rd and 4th, with the minimum separation dates, are by the same person, who claims to be a "forum member" and to have learned about Dillon from another member, presumably the author of the first two reviews. There are no members here with those reviewer names, although they could use different names on the forum than on their reviews. I have searched the forums, and the only posts about a "Dillon" are from many years ago, about an escort who would probably be in his 50s now. All four reviews have a similar style despite the difference in details about the experiences. All are over-the-top positive, lauding Dillon for the same attributes he claims in his ad.
 
In his rent.men interview, Dillon claims to be a writer. Caveat emptor.

I would never ever ever ever pay any $ in advance to any escort or service.

Attractive isn't much of an issue to me if it allows my client to get actual, restful sleep. CPAPs save lives.

One of the two or three best escorts I’ve met...and I’ve met more than a few. Magnificent body, deeply sexual, kind, funny and smart.

But let's not forget:
 
Felony burglary is not a victimless crime.
 
Felony battery with substantial bodily harm is not a victimless crime.

Unless you’re black and then you do exceptionally well because it’s all of...2 of you. Toronto is a favorite of mine.

@keroscenefire you're right that few clients even know about the daddysreviews site.....and that isn't good......a few more know about this forum, but many are not members, don't post, and rarely look in........but many more clients only know about rentmen and, sadly, probably only rely on the reviews there for making a decision.......
 
your concern is very nice, but like the classic yelp/google/tripadvisor et al reviews, it's just difficult to come to general agreement using only a ratings system......client preferences, style, priorities differ........
 
I've mentioned before that the best way to have a successful meeting with a provider is 1) look at daddysreviews 2) inquire here at the forum and 3) communicate thoroughly and discreetly with the provider, including a phone chat, to make sure you'll be compatible......

He was gorgeous!!

Spoiler Alert: This story is a preview of “The Last Days of August,” a new “Serial”-style podcast from journalist Jon Ronson which will be released on Audible on January 3.
 
On December 5, 2017, the body of 23-year-old porn superstar August Ames was found in a park near Los Angeles. The cause of death was asphyxiation from hanging.
 
A brutally simple narrative quickly formed around her suicide. Cyberbullies, the story went, drove Ames to kill herself after she tweeted about not wanting to work with “crossover” male porn stars who also made gay porn.
 
“The Last Days of August” rewrites the story of Ames’ death. Ronson’s broader version of events shifts the blame away from cyberbullies and instead places the tweetstorm and Ames’ death within a longer timeline of disturbing events. At the same time, it contextualizes porn stars Jessica Drake and Jaxton Wheeler, two of the major villains from the original narrative, while discovering new actors and events which helped push Ames over the edge.
 
In one particularly harrowing portion of the seven-episode podcast series, Ronson and his producer Lena Misitzis dissect Ames’ final porn scene which was shot weeks before the flurry of tweets and has never been released to the public. They make the argument that her last scene was the real trigger for her suicide.
 
“When you think about it what we were watching in that moment was the moment that she decided to die. That’s what we were watching and it’s awful,” Ronson told The Post. “That was the truth of it, that was the moment when she reached the point of no return. The Twitter bullying may have been the icing on the cake as some people described it.”
 
Ronson and Misitzis felt comfortable coming to this conclusion because they were able to get access to text messages Ames sent to a friend about the scene.
 
The podcasters also took a deep dive into Ames’ (real name Mercedes Grabowski) troubled childhood, cross-examined her husband, porn producer Kevin Moore, and broke down the decline in Ames’ mental health during the final days of her life.
 
Before any of that, however, Ronson and Misitzis establish their bonafides by taking an ax to two of the main pillars of the cyberbullying storyline.
 
That story, which was pushed by Ames’ husband Moore, began on December 3 when Ames tweeted: “Whichever (lady) performer is replacing me tomorrow for @EroticaXNews, you’re shooting with a guy who has shot gay porn, just to let cha know. BS is all I can say… Do agents really not care about who they’re representing?… I do my homework for my body.”
 
Trying to clarify her position she later added: “NOT homophobic. Most girls don’t shoot with guys who have shot gay porn, for safety. That’s just how it is with me. I’m not putting my body at risk, i don’t know what they do in their private
lives.”
 
The following day Jessica Drake, a longtime and respected porn star who has accused Donald Trump of sexual misconduct, took to Twitter to offer a rebuke of Ames’ position.
 
“Performers, by all means, f–k who you want to f–k…but if you’re eliminating folks based on the fact they they (sic) may have done gay or crossover work, your logic is seriously flawed. reality is, WE DON’T KNOW who does what with whom when there are no cameras.”
 
In a manifesto published on Ames’ website six days after her death, Moore explicitly blamed his wife’s death on Drake and gay porn star Jaxton Wheeler who, on December 5, tweeted: “@AugustAmesxxx the world is awaiting your apology or for you to swallow a cyanide pill. Either or we’ll take it.”
 
At the Adult Video News Awards — porn’s version of the Oscars — which were held on January 27, 2018, Moore stood before the entire industry and declared, “Who you work with is up to you. It’s your body, it’s your choice. No agent, no producer, no company, and certainly not social media, decides what you do with your body.”
 
The audience thunderously applauded Moore for his speech and some of the assembled porn stars wore t-shirts in memory of Ames.
 
Awkwardly, Drake attended the AVNs and was in the audience when Moore made his speech.
Ronson, who wrote a book called “So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed,” on the early days of cyberbullying, dissects Moore’s version of events with the precision of a surgeon.
 
For example, Ronson points out that a close reading of Drake’s tweet reveals it to be relatively benign. Drake doesn’t condemn Ames or even call her out by name. Drake simply gives an alternative point of view on Ames’ health concerns.
 
Ronson also highlights the fact that Drake was not acting with ill-intent and could not have known the effect her words may or may not have had on Ames. Drake issued a heartfelt apology nonetheless, three days after Ames’ death, and in a rare interview tearfully revealed to Ronson that she, ironically, was now the subject of intense internet bullying.
 
Ronson’s reframing of Wheeler’s indefensible tweet is even simpler. Wheeler sent his appalling message telling Ames’ to “swallow a cyanide pill” in the early hours of December 5. Ames’ final tweet, a simple “f–k y’all,” was sent on August 4 and her body wasn’t found till December 5. Wheeler’s tweet, Ronson figured out, was sent after Ames’ had already taken her own life.
 
“The Last Days of August” is full of details like these that Ronson and Misitzis dug up, which create a portrait of Ames that is harrowing, heartbreaking and inspiring all at the same time.
 
Despite surviving childhood sexual traumas, Ames moved to Los Angeles by herself and for all intents and purposes conquered porn. In her five-year career, she shot nearly 300 scenes and was nominated for Female Performer of the Year three times at the AVNs. She was also a fan favorite not only because of her pure natural beauty but also because of her bubbly onscreen personality and exuberant sexuality. She was quite simply a joy to watch.
 
At the end of the podcast series, Ronson and Misitzis laser-in on the Ames’ final scene because it was so clearly outside her upbeat comfort zone. Performing with 30-year-old Russian porn star Markus Dupree, who is known for his domineering style, Ames was pushed to her sexual limits and possibly beyond.
 
In text messages to a friend, Ronson and Misitzis found Ames described Dupree going “full on War Machine.” This is a reference to Jon “War Machine” Koppenhaver a professional fighter turned porn star who is serving a life sentence for beating his ex-girlfriend, porn star Christy Mack, within an inch of her life.
 
Both Ronson and Misitzis told The Post that watching the scene was one of the hardest parts of the entire project and in listening to Misitzis’ description of its contents, it is easy to understand why.
 
“On more than one occasion in the footage, Marcus forcefully repositions August which visibly startles her,” Misitzis says in the final episode of the podcast. “She says ‘whoa s–t!’ and at one point Marcus picks up her pink thong, stretches it around her head, jerks her around by it, and then shoves it in her mouth.”
 
“At the end of her scene, August is interviewed by a crewmember to establish consent for legal purposes. She’s staring straight into the camera, holding up her check for the day’s work, her makeup’s gone and her hair is pulled back, she looks resigned and emotional and hollow all at once. ‘Were you treated OK?’ she’s asked. And flatly, and quietly she says, ‘yes.’ For the first time in this footage, all the camera is focused on is August’s face and she seems like she’s verging on tears.”
 
Six weeks later, Ames killed herself.
 
Around the same time, four other female porn stars lost their lives to drug overdoses or under mysterious circumstances.
 
Moore tried to provide a wake-up call for the industry at the 2018 AVNs. At the same award show, Dupree won Male Performer of the Year. In the past 12 months, he has shot well over 200 scenes and picked up nine nominations for this year’s AVNs. Once again, he is nominated for Male Performer of the Year.
 
The porn machine stops for no one. Consumers, Ronson told the Post, don’t care about the industry’s problems “because of their own shame about watching porn and not wanting to think about the life of the people in the porn business.”
 
“You don’t want to think of those people as a human but it’s for your own reason not there’s.”
 
The more people learn about the porn industry the less sexy it becomes.
 

Given that publicly stated orientations are sometimes chosen for image/career reasons -- and for that matter the existence of studios that portray all or most of their models as straight/gay-for-pay/etc. as part of their own image/niche -- this seems like a hard topic to sort out.
 
Nobody seems to trust the stated orientations on RM very much (at least not as direct indicators of the provider's actual orientation); the same principle applies in porn, doesn't it?

From a client's standpoint, thank you for demonstrating the business side of all this, which is very often unappreciated.

So, I ran across this ad: https://rentmasseur.com/branc
 
There were all kinds of red flags: it had just been posted, it listed three cities (Santa Fe, New Orleans, and Ft. Lauderdale) simultaneously, and google image search linked the photos to a guy in Brazil who's facebook page (and real name) was easy to find.
 
Faced with a little boredom, and a fair amount of curiosity, I decided to engage. I've got some apps on my phone that provide free "burner" phone numbers which are great for fishing expeditions like this one (Apps are TextFree, TextMe and TextNow). I, of course, was also secretly hoping that this hot guy was for real.
 
The first number I texted him from was a 504 area code, which is New Orleans, one of the cities listed in his ad. At this point, I was giving him the benefit of the doubt and when he immediately asked if I was in New Orleans, I said yes, and asked him where he was. "Downtown" was his reply, which is conveniently generic, but a little odd since, in New Orleans, we don't usually say "downtown," we say "the central business district" or "the CBD." He quickly followed up with a specific hotel address which is, I believe, the exact closest hotel to the center point of New Orleans on a map.
 
I had discovered the real name of the guy in the photos, so I asked him "Are you really (real name here)?" That shut down the conversation.
 
Less than a day later, I decided to try again, but this time I was already quite sure he was a scam artist and was just trying to learn more. I used a Florida area code this time, and started by inquiring about his location. "Downtown" he replied, vaguely. "Ft. Lauderdale?" I responded, and then he quickly provided a specific hotel and address: a Hampton Inn very close to the geographical center of Ft. Lauderdale. I wanted to waste a little bit more of his (or her) time, so I started asking questions about the services and activities offered. For each question, I was given the answer that he thought I was looking for. Since he would never actually meet, he could promise the world. I asked for more pictures, nude pictures, etc. All were forthcoming, but, of course, in the nude photos, you couldn't really tell whether it was the same guy.
 
Once I had convinced him that I was really horny, I asked if he was available now--he was. I told him I would take a quick shower and be there within an hour.
 
He was sure he had me hooked, so then he drops the bomb: He asks if, on my way over, I could stop at a Walgreens, CVS, etc. to pick up some iTunes gift cards for him. He specifies that he wants one $100 card, one $50 card, and I can pay him the remaining $50 in cash. "OK," I reply, "I'll take a quick shower and head over."
 
About 45 minutes later, I texted him that I had arrived at his hotel. As I expected, he told me to scratch off the cards and send him pictures of the codes. I searched google for images of iTunes gift cards, which were easy to find, but of course they were already redeemed, so they didn't work for him. I knew that I'd taken this about as far as I could, but I sent him images of more (worthless) cards just to waste as much time as possible. Surprisingly, he was very slow to give up, and kept asking me to send "real" cards. Then, ironically, he seemed to get mad that I was trying to fool him with fake cards.
 
The next day, I decided that I was in Santa Fe, NM. I texted him with a new number. Again, I started by trying to suss out his location. He was evasive, just claiming to be "downtown" and turning around the questions so that I would name the city. Once I revealed that it was Santa Fe, he immediately texted me an exact location, just like before. I was impressed that he had traveled from New Orleans to Ft. Lauderdale to Santa Fe within the course of about two days!
 
Once again, I offered to come right over, and he was immediately available! And then, the same pitch for iTunes cards, and in fact, the same specific request for one $100 card and one $50 card and $50 in cash. Since I knew he was going to ask me to send pictures of the codes, when he did, I asked if I could just give them to him in person, and said "don't you trust me? I'm an honest guy." He said that he needed to see the codes. I asked "what if you don't show up?" He said "I'm honest in my job." So, apparently my assurance that I'm an honest guy didn't cut it, but I was supposed to accept his honesty without question. It was all a game, but I was really hoping he'd play better.
 
I sent him the exact same images that I'd sent the day before. Oddly, he didn't seem to recognize the images, or realize that I'd put him through a similar exercise less than 24 hours earlier. This makes me wonder if this isn't an individual scammer, but some kind of organization that is staffed like a call center, perhaps in some far-away land.
 
At the end of this, once I knew it wasn't going much further, I asked him how he was able to be in New Orleans, Ft. Lauderdale, and Santa Fe in such a short time. He responded "I can travel over there for service." He seemed to be implying that he could just bop over to any of these places on a moment's notice. To me, this is another clue that he's in another country, perhaps a small country, so he doesn't understand that you can't be in Ft. Lauderdale one moment and Santa Fe a short while later.
 
So, what's the point of all this? Mostly, I suppose, a waste of my time. But, I think it helps us all to understand the patterns of these scammers who are out to victimize us. Hopefully, it goes without saying that you should never send anyone the codes from gift cards. And, maybe, just maybe, if we waste enough of these crooks' time, they'll find some other targets and leave us alone.
