KensingtonHomo

I went to hm for a massage a couple of months back. He was good and pretty generous during the massage. He's in amazing shape.

Or for $400 he, or the client, could propose 1 hr and a half.

I think he's hot but I'm sure that the absence of ripped muscles plus the age shaving (no way he's 28) will bother many.

There are still some young muscled providers in their 20s asking for $300.

With a couple of exceptions my great experiences have bern with providers who are not in their 20s and looks wise probably a 7-8, some less pretty but nice bodies. 
 

So the person who wrote about Conner being kind, fun, good at sex, are all pluses to me. 
 

We hired a guy this weekend who will now be a repeat. He’s in fine shape, a bit skinny perhaps, not very muscular. BUT he was both proficient at all kinds of sex, clearly enjoyed it as a pastime, and enjoyed it with us. To me that is far worth the coins than a pretty face or Adonis like body. 

We just saw Jonah, and OMG what a fun guy. Thanks @burtjohn for PMing me. You were right. Happy to share our experience. 

I live in Brooklyn and wish there were more masseurs in the area. I've gone to Bushwick and Bed Stuy a few times to see guys there, but I do drive when I do. 

Yes. I told him I wasn't interested.

Your data is misleading.

Raw data isn't misleading.

The fact is that people die.

Your data expresses that Covid death was more common...not that it caused more deaths overall. Heart disease and Cancer are still the more common cause of death.

 

I’m talking about raw data. You’re selecting data that suits your misleading argument, and ignoring a 16% increase in all case death during a year in which COVID was the third leading cause. 
 

And heart disease and cancer account for hundreds of distinct diseases. If we combined infectious disease deaths overall, it would be third even without COVID. 

PS: We were initially planing on seeing a couple of guys around Christmas and then New Years but ended up waiting till after Christmas. This was because we were spending the day with my nephew who is too young to be vaccinated. So we hunkered down on purpose for a little over a week before X-mas.

The ONLY defense against Covid-19 is YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM.

These vaccines don't act as barriers to catching a Coronavirus, they merely give YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM a heads-up to what a Covid-19 virus looks like so it moves quickly to deal with it.

What SO MANY people DON'T GET is that this vaccine does NOT NOT NOT prevent you from catching Covid-19 !!

That said ...it's also unlikely if you are ACTUALLY healthy that you will suffer serious illness from Covid-19. But HEALTH is something your DOCTOR needs to determine with full panel blood work and full and frequent check ups. NOT your OPINION.  "OH ...he always looked so healthy" how did he die from Covid ? LOOKING HEALTHY is not necessarily BEING HEALTHY.  Elderly and at risk groups still need to be extra cautious. 99% of the population will not die from Covid.

TOTAL US death rate ( from ALL causes ) for 2021 is 8.977 -  up 1.09 % 

Total US death rate (from ALL causes ) for 2014 ( no Covid-19 pandemic)  was 8.264 - up 1.29 %  - higher than today

Since the 1950s the death rate in the US has been declining which means people are living much longer. They are living artificially longer through the use of pharmaceuticals. This pandemic is correcting the natural order by circumnavigating science and taking out those of us who are living artificially longer than we would have 30 years ago, when the death rate was identical to the death rate today.

 

I work in public health and a lot of what you're saying here is technically true but very misleading. Vaccines do not necessarily prevent you from getting SARS-COV-2 into your body, but for most people (pre-Omicron) it prevented the progression to disease. Now, Omicron is evading the vaccines to some extent - though boosted people seem to fare better - but it's also limiting spread to some extent. 

But my main gripe is the focus on ALL causes death rate for 2021 is post-vaccine, and still within a time frame within the US where people were not commuting, not necessarily going out as much, flu was down. 

However, all cause mortality for 2020 pre-vaccine, height of the pandemic, was UP 15.9%. Without vaccines, the rate in 2021 would likely be significantly higher than it has been.

My hourly fee structure includes both quantatative and qualitative factors. 
 

I have a set fee for pushing you around the block in a wheel barrow. Are you surprised that I have a higher fee for pushing you and your spouse around the same block in the same wheel barrow? 

in my experience of threesomes, both with providers and with other guys, a single person is not doing all the work. That's why the doubling of the price seems off to me. 

I know some providers who charge $200 first hour/$150 second. Again, that makes sense to me because it's a discount for more time when the provider has already prepared for the date and traveled. 

In our case, we're less likely to rehire someone who charges double - the exceptions being for massage as @Jamie21 pointed out because it is actually twice the work. 

Nick Halden is an incredibly good kisser. Sensual, soft, passionate. 

So my husband and I hire together because we play together. With some guys it's just their hourly rate; for others it's 1.5 times their hourly (this feels correct to me); and for others it's double. Double feels like too much because it's like like the escort is doing double work. 

I'm curious where the providers on here stand on that and if you're charging double is it just because it's two people?

When I read "dreamcouple" I expected very handsome, great bodies, sexy men...but...

I didn't want to say it but... 

I've started chatting with him. He has a lot of good reviews on RM. We may take the plunge over the holidays.

Dear Kensington Homo,

I am not the closeted old queen you might suspect.  Rather:

-- provider hiring is a side of my life I choose to keep private, and the reasons for that are private too.

-- I am concerned that an electronic transfer might somehow be used--in ways I cannot either know or imagine--to defraud me.  There are many more unscrupulous providers than there are hotels or restaurants. And what recourse will I have?

As to risks.  There are plenty on both sides. My guess is that there may even be as many no show providers as there are clients.  The client does, however, get to keep the money.

yours,

Old John

PS:  Most of my hiring is in continental Europe, but in my native US there are police stings targeting clients.

I didn't assume you were a closeted old queen. I'm not sure why you're projecting that on to me. I literally said there are valid reasons for wanting anonymity. And you don't need to justify or explain that to me or anyone else. 

I don't worry about electronic transfers bc I only use a single Venmo account connected to a credit card. I recommend this or cash. It minimizes risk and provides a degree of anonymity. 

We'll have to agree to disagree on risks. Yes, clients occasionally get scammed or beat up, but violence against sex workers if far more prevalent. If I had my druthers, I'd legalize it all so it wasn't an underground economy.

Both Kensingtonhomo and nycman have a point.  BUT even if I were willing to put down a $25 deposit, how do I get it to the provider? The business is full of untrustworthy types, and plenty clients are deceived and robbed (see these pages passim). Providers are not out of the same bag as my doctor. I am supposed to send it electronically?  Or give the guy a credit card number like I do restaurants and hotels?  No way.

Please don't go and list 87 ways to make a "safe and anonymous" electronic transfer.  I just won't do it. Cause I don't believe it's safe and anonymous.

There are lots of risks in this business.  The client shoulders many.  Providers can shoulder others.

 

I spoke to what I am prepared to do and have done, as well as an understanding that due to flakey "clients" some providers may require this. It's not a moral decision. It's business. 

Also, knowing people who do or have done sex work, sure there's some risk for clients, but the overwhelming risk is on the part of the provider. I don't know why you're so concerned about anonymity but that's totally valid. I'm not that concerned about it because I'm totally out, and while there's a small risk to my public profile, I'm pretty open about being pro-sex work.

I was trying to think through my own list of service providers on this one…..

Doctor…no.
Dentist….no.
Lawyer…no.
Trainer….no.
Auto-mechanic….no.
Landscaper…..no.
Plumber….no.
Electrician….no.
Driver…no.
Waiter….no.
Massage therapist….no.
Manicurist…no

Honestly, the only "yes" I did come up with was occasionally for a caterer, but they have significant expenses for food and drink prior to the event and I understand wanting a deposit in those scenarios. 

And no….an enema is not a "significant expense"….it’s just a warm, wet, pain in the ass. 

This is pedantry. Most doctors will charge you for a missed appointment if you don’t cancel with sufficient notice, same for dentists. 

Electricians, landscapers, etc, are coming to your house. So if you don’t pay, they don’t do the work. They’re not sitting in a hotel waiting for you to show up.

if you were to do extensive landscaping work, remodeling your home, etc, you would likely pay a deposit before work begins. You would also have a contract. 
 

if you don’t want to send a deposit to a new provider, then don’t. But if I were in their business, I’d probably insist on it.

He’s vaccinated and boosted as am I. So it didn’t come up. 

I will join the minority of client opinions here in saying to ask for a deposit. Even if it's $25. While I realize some clients want extreme anonymity, those who don't need or want that shouldn't have a problem with a small deposit. 

We put deposits down for services all the time outside of escort work. If we're seeing someone for the first time, sometimes we even offer. That makes me feel like we've secured the time. Generally, once we've met a provider they do not ask for a deposit again.

Report please!!

He was great. Exactly as I remembered. He said he's not planning to run his ads all the time but if you've been a previous client, keep his number. I know I will. 

Seeing him today. I haven't seen him since pre-COVID. He's always been a favorite.

Wow. 132 5-star reviews as of Nov 27, but I agree that the new looks are too feminine and it seems he has already done something to his lips and cheeks. It almost looks as if he's transitioning. The older pics look much better, really fitting for a straight soldier. One of his videos features him talking and at least he doesn't have the typical gay lisp. I know some straight guys are fans of John Constantine Comic characters but he might be taking things to the extreme. And those are not 8 inches.

"The typical gay lisp?" Maybe you're lonely because you have internalized homophobia. JFC, femme phobia in this day and age. 

I have zero desire to pay a straight man so I can "service" him. If that's your thing, great. But I remember when I was in my 20s I had a bunch of friends who were into "turning" straight guys and it always blew my mind. I want to be desired or at least be convinced I'm desired. LOL

Here are some of my faves. A couple are vers but I'm a bottom so it's based on my experience of them as tops.

I personally don't mind doing this - I consider it courtesy. 

Yes. And I understand that some clients are uncomfortable so this is just my own way of handling it, but I don’t want it to be taken as me saying everyone should.

As a client, I offer to send a G-rated pic. Some providers like that. I feel like it’s only fair. Plus my husband and I hire together for massage and other things. We prefer to host so I like to give providers a sense of who we are. I’m a sexual assault survivor. I think the idea that an escort is entering the home of two men could be anxiety provoking. I realize not everyone has the ability to be this forthright. But since I am able, I like to do it.
