I wonder if his head is as smooth as a twink's bottom...

Did he give you some idea of the dimensions of the problem? Is he really so big that some good lube and poppers and just a little patience wouldn't ease him in? To be honest, I've been with some pretty big guys who could somehow make an entry with far less discomfort than more average guys.

He's the Latin guy who was working under that name after the asian Danny Cruz retired. I haven't met him, unfortunately.

I'm hoping this is a "text message came across as unintentionally rude" situation. I am trying to view it from the client's perspective: he's big and wants to engage someone who does not advertise as a full or power bottom, so he wants to be sure the guy is capable. That would make sense since it would be frustrating to have someone tap out before getting started. Still, saying guys who can't handle it don't get paid is a red flag, I'd say it's reasonable to pass on him because you don't know if might pull some other excuse to avoid paying in full.

Sometimes you feel like a nut...

Just because they didn't target gay clients this time doesn't mean they won't on the next sting. The Sheriff in Polk county, Fl has done similar stings and used both female and male lures. The only thing that seems to prevent these cop stings from using RM to lure in clients is the extra hoops that RM has in place for an escort ad to go live. That isn't an absolute guarantee they won't try it in the future, though. Sites like mintboys are less restrictive and the ads should be considered more risky in general.

One thing I remember with these endless shrimp/fish deals is that the initial portion might be regular size, but when you ask for more it seems they bring half-portions. They control their cost and make you wait for each portion. Most people won't ask for more than a couple extra portions since they're filling up on the bread while they wait.

I think I shall get a box and have a sub serve me a fresh hot batch in a golden basket covered with a fine linen napkin. Then he will watch me eat them slowly while he kneels at my feet and I tell him in exquisite detail how warm and cheesy each one tastes. If I am generous I will let him have a single morsel.

I heard a report about this that said that barriers had been damaged or removed by vandals or scrappers, and the contractor hired by the local roads department that was supposed to maintain or replace them was slow to do so. Also it was said that Google maps didn't show the road as closed, so it was frequently used in directions. Locals repeatedly had sent repeated requests to correct the map, but they didn't act on the request. If this happened at night when and there isn't any lighting, the driver might not have been able to see the bridge out well if they we're following the Google maps directions. But the family will have to prove the lack of barrier maintenance and that Google should have known the map was wrong and failed to correct it when notified.

You might look at Factor 75, they do packaged meals with a leaning towards portion control/healthy food options. I tried one once when I was staying at a hotel that had some in the snack and sundries corner in the lobby. It wasn't bad, though the hotel microwave didn't do it any favors. I've been thinking about trying some out to bring to work for days I don't have anything prepared. https://www.factor75.com/

I gave up on the other delivery services for being far too expensive. I'm not sure this service would be compelling enough to justify the likely cost for delivery.

I haven't been to a Red Lobster in years, do they still give this biscuits at the table?

While NIMBY types are a factor, the land rush of investors buying up property to hold as short term rental got out of hand. A friend of mine bought a condo in Midtown Atlanta and tells me how his floor would feel often abandoned because so few units were owner-occupied. He found out that one firm bought about 10% of his building right when it opened units up for sale under nearly a dozen different LLCs, and they held them empty for a time before engaging a management firm to list them on AirBNB under several different accounts. Once they started listing them they had issues with guests leaving trash in the hall, throwing loud parties, letting kids use the facilities unsupervised, etc. The condo association was still run by the builder, so the homeowners that were actually living there had to get a lawyer to send a letter demanding they enforce the occupancy clauses on their building rules against the investment firms that were hiding behind the LLCs.

I think the blush came off the rose with AirBNB when larger numbers of people (or often businesses) started buying properties specifically short term rentals. The platform which used to be majority homeowners with a one or two properties they kept up with pride changed to arms length transactions with a faceless owner or property manager. Add to that the growth of cleaning fees that add substantial costs, hosts with lengthy chore lists, misrepresented properties, and sketchy host behavior. Suddenly the value proposition for Airbnb is less attractive than it once was for many travelers. Why put up with the quirks and compromises of non hotel property when you have to to clean everything, do laundry, and still pay a cleaning fee that brings up the costs to the same level as a hotel stay?

That's cool that you're able to explore an area of sexuality with your client and are willing to see how it goes. Dom/sub roleplay can be more challenging for both sides than some people realize, and it helps to have a mindset open to the demands of each role. It really helps to have some experience with the other person beforehand, too. At minimum a chance to meet and discuss expectations and boundaries. I hope you continue to have some good sessions with this client, and pick up some skills you can use with other clients in the future. I believe the best doms have experience on the sub side, so you may find that plays well with your Type A personality in the future.

If they were arresting people actually engaged in or facilitating trafficking, it would make sense to highlight if one had access to "secure areas" at the airport, since they could theoretically help bypass TSA screening. But that term includes just about everyone who can go airside or in the office areas. But they hiring guys responding to an ad or profile, so it's moot anyway.

Adding that these sting operations do little to actually go after the trafficking rings the law was supposed to be addressing, or to rescue any victims of those criminals.

I think we had another thread about this when Texas passed the statute that treats solicitation at a felony. While it seems the recent sting operations focused mostly on heterosexual male clients, there's nothing that prevents them from targeting gay clients in the future. An ambitious DA or sheriff with plans to run for higher office would just see gay clients as yet another unsympathetic demographic they can use for easy convictions. If hiring in Texas, I'd stay with ads on RM for well established providers and avoid any ads that are very new with no reviews. I'd definitely avoid A4A or Backpage type sites.

There was an asian escort back in the 2000s who worked under the name Danny Cruz out of NYC. I had some great times with him when he'd visit my city. Sadly he retired and I lost contact with him. There's another Latin guy who worked under the same name since then that I haven't met.

You can toot anyone's horn you like!

"Presumption of innocence" is a legal principal that applies to the State when prosecuting criminal matters. That has no bearing on private companies that decide whether or not to continue their association with him based on the accusations. I would prefer that there's accusations be followed with either criminal or civil cases to prove the allegations in court, rather than in the media. If they are untrue, Brand can and should pursue defamation or slander cases against the accusers since he has material damages. Conversely, these cases should be handled as quickly as possible in the courts. The recent conviction of Danny Masterson took far too long to conclude, for example.

I haven't attended these kinds of events, but I follow guys who do. I think the *Fans sites have changed the dynamic a bit, since a lot of escorts are also doing content for their subscribers. They'll go to these events, but mostly be working on collaborations among the other performers, and have little time for meeting clients.

I may volunteer my culito to find out how long it'll take.

Bumping. He is visiting Detroit soon, has anyone met him recently?

I think it's all in how you communicate about the rates. Having a "travelling" rate that is higher than your home rate that defrays the expenses for hotel and incidentals seems reasonable. Stating it as a surcharge (call it a "resort fee"?) might be off putting, however.
