This was not a fin dom. This was just straight impersonation catfishing. They were using wrestler Cash Wheeler’s photos. 

Ah yeah...that's much worse. Looks like he deleted his profile so maybe he got called on his bullshit. 

First off...this is not a political discussion on the Club Q shooting.

Rather, I am curious if LGBTQ establishments outside of Colorado are experiencing increased security in light of the Club Q shooting.

In Denver, many gay bars/clubs have implemented new security measures. At one popular gay nightclub, they've implemented almost stadium-style security including metal detectors, pat downs and prohibiting any bag or large items. Almost all have extra security personnel at both the door and roaming the floor.

Just curious if this is something you're seeing at LGBTQ establishments around the country or is this something more localized to Colorado?

If I were an escort, I would probably not go to Dubai. There have been numerous instances of escorts of both genders being arrested. 

In general, I'm pretty skeptical of any profile with "Cash" in the name or descriptions of "FinDom" or anything similar.

Not kink shaming....if FinDom is your thing, that's great. But in my opinion, a lot of these "FinDom" guys are really just trying to extract maximum cash for minimum work. And it's been rarely worth it trying to get a more typical escort experience from them.

Andor is very, very good. You really feel how it would be to live under an oppressive government like the Empire.

And such a great cast. I've always had a crush on Diego Luna and he has a great shirtless shower scene about halfway through. But I also love how you really see the conflicts in his thinking reflected in his eyes. 

And also Andy Serkis, Genevieve O'Reilly, Stellan Skarsgaard....so many great performances.

Definitely looking forward to the finale.

Did anybody catch this interesting and somewhat sexy documentary about Giancarlo Granda and his affair with the evangelical Falwell couple?

It's really Giancarlo's story and he's incredibly handsome. I feel really bad for him because the Falwells really seemed to have manipulated and entrapped this young man into basically becoming their guy for their cuckold fantasies. In some ways, I would consider what happened to Giancarlo to be fairly similar to prostitution except for instead of just money they offer him business dealings and access to their luxurious, Christian lifestyle.

Don't want to get to into politics but this all happens in the backdrop of Jerry Falwell endorsing Trump and there's some interesting connections involving Michael Cohen as well.

I thought it was really interesting though maybe a bit too political actually. Worth watching just to stare at Giancarlo for 90 minutes. Not only is he handsome but I found him smart and well-spoken. Felt really sorry for what he had to go through.

Thanks, guys. I hear you. I dream of waking him by sucking his cock in the morning.is this too pushy? Too invasive? Do I ask for permission each time we start a new round, a ñew activity or is permission automatically granted by the agreed overnight?

Consent is important. I would ask him about the morning thing in particular. Personally I usually have to piss really bad when I wake up so that would not be appealing to me. 

But definitely you should be able to have a few rounds of sex. To me it's not necessarily asking each time so much as we just start getting into my kissing and getting more physical. But of course if there is something you want to do specifically, just ask. 

Do: Make it a provider that you have already met and have a good connection with.

Don't: Try someone new.

Do: Find a mutually enjoyable activity(ies) that you can do with your provider. Something as simple as a movie or dinner or perhaps a play, comedy show, art exhibit, etc.

Don't:  Allow yourself to be pressured into doing things you're not comfortable with just because it's a longer session. Sometimes providers can get a bit too comfortable with drugs, alcohol, sexual, etc. Set firm boundaries about that and if the provider does not respect your wishes, I think it's perfectly okay to pay him for the time spent but to cut off the session early.

Looking at this, it's clear that they are using the facial recognition software and cross-referencing it to Rent.men. So basically the advice really should be do not use face photos at all on Rent.men. Perhaps you can share pics with prospective clients over a secure channels like WhatsApp, but it's clear that Rent.men has been compromised and the pics on there are no longer safe from the eyes of the US (and probably foreign) governments. 

Yikes! Yeah my advice would be to not post any travel any longer on the forum or on Rent.men. Probably both client and provider TBH.

I hate needles so the pills will be fine for me. But a good alternative to people who maybe have a hard time consistently taking their medication. 

I agree with the pros. It's the provider's duty to keep track of time. I always do an extra $20 almost always but if a provider demands more money because we went "over" that's really on him not me. It had happened a couple of times and in one case he got kind of aggressive with me. But all I had was the money I had so 🤷‍♂️. 

In all cases, I am very upfront with time and money that we both agree on. I would like 2 hours at $500 or whatever. That's what I pay at the end unless we mutually agree otherwise during the session. Not at the end because oops it went over.

I feel like Denver is kind of rough lately. A lot of former reliable regulars have stopped escorting for the time being and a lot of the new guys are either flakey or expensive or both. 

Personally I think you might weirdly have better long contacting people the day before or even the day off. And also multiple guys. This weekend, I contacted 5, only two messaged me back in time and one of them wanted a very high amount for his time. 

I'm trying to find another great Denver regular, but no luck. I'll definitely let you know if I do though.

Thanks for the feedback.  And an open relationship  wouldn’t work with this guy. And I don’t really want an open relationship. I wouldn’t feel right for me at this point. 

I think if you have zero interest in other guys then that's a good thing and you really probably don't need to hire or open anything up at this point. Relationships change though and maybe at some point you (or your partner or both of you) will want to open it up in some way. That could be months or years or might never happen.

In some ways I feel like masseurs would a better way of opening it up. I guess there is the stigma of hiring a sex worker, but I also feel like such relationships are more temporary and transactional and not likely to result in developing feelings (though that can sometimes happen too). 

Anyway good luck with your new relationship. I'm kinda in one too and we'll see where it goes and what this means with hiring. I'm not sure yet either.

Even now that I am a more experienced bottom, I would say that anal still hurts some. It almost always hurts for me right at the first penetration I think because my sphincter has to relax and get used to the dick. After that it's more pleasure than pain though sometimes it can still hurt a bit...almost in a pleasurable way actually.

The biggest difference between an actual dick and a dildo is the human being involved. I actually really enjoy seeing someone enjoying my hole and love watching their sexy body on top of mine and hearing their moans. The way another guy fucks is also more unpredictable and not controlled by you, so that makes it hotter than a dildo that you are controlling.

Although at this point it's not clear that even if you got the account created whether the transaction would go through in time, which is why we earlier counseled earlier folk not to wait til the last minute.  I suspect the issues will abate one the new rate, which also doesn't suck, kicks in.

Kevin Slater

Yeah, I may just have to wait. I had kind of a short window because I had a CD mature in September so didn't really have the money until this month. Oh well. I guess I'll try at the newer rate. I am planning 10K so it'll still be a decent payout. 

Yeah unfortunately I had to give up on it. It wouldn't let me make a new account after several days of trying. Oh well.

Damn that sucks that some people are such assholes to providers. It's like even if the deposit thing isn't for you, just move on instead of messing with you. That really sucks Jarrod.

I'm having such difficulty with the web site. I keep getting kicked out. I guess this has been too popular.

This is truly an incredible loss to this community. I remember meeting Epigonos at the PS event two years ago and he was such an incredibly funny, generous and kind man. I probably ended up talking to him more than anyone at the events. I specifically remember him sitting next to me at the dinner when I was at a table by myself. What a loss.

Let's keep his memory alive here in this community.

I couldn't find the 30-day rule (or 14-day rule) in that document. This is what I found:

Owners and operators of residential rental property (also known as “landlords”) may not allow
any person to initiate a new occupancy of a rental property for more than 30 days unless and
until the tenant has been provided a copy of an executed written lease,1 signed by both the landlord and tenant. The landlord must provide the tenant an electronic copy of the signed lease, or paper copy if requested by the tenant, within seven days from the tenant signing the lease...

Glossary of Terms and Definitions:

Tenant: A person who rents a rental property from a landlord.

 

Did I miss something?

Hmm...that definitely does seem like you have to be paying rent for that to apply. 

For a long time, Denver had a rule that prohibited more than two unrelated people from living together and that included "guests" that weren't paying rent. But they recently changed that law in the last election to allow up to five unrelated adults to live together. So maybe something changed in the language when that happened...not sure.

I'd love to see the law, if you can find it. I'm amazed someone can be considered an tenant when he doesn't pay a dime.

I'd be extraordinarily surprised if this doesn't vary widely from one jurisdiction to another. 

In Denver, it's 30 days. After that you are legally considered a tenant unless you are a family member. 

In terms of bringing it back to finances/investing, any advice on weathering bad economic times? I did just put 5K into a 3.5% CD. Considering doing another 5K in I-bonds maybe? Anything else?

It's looking more and more like a global recession is inevitable. Europe definitely is going to have a rough couple years. I think the US economy is actually relatively strong compared to many others. But probably we're in for at least a mild recession to push back against inflation.
