Greg_blond reacted to maninsoma in I didn’t have a good first hiring experience.How can I make it better?
It will be interesting to read providers' responses (assuming you get some), but as a client I will say this:
1. Maybe some men in Western countries aren't attracted to Asian men, but there are many who are.
2. I think the issue is less about you writing a script (of sorts) for the encounter in advance and more about choosing a provider wisely. Did the guy you hire have reviews here or anywhere else where you can read reviews with comments? Sadly a lot of providers are simply going through the motions in order to make money, and they aren't good enough actors to make you believe they are interested in being with you when what they really want is to get paid and leave. There are other guys who at least take some pleasure in giving other men pleasure and being with a variety of men. Look for that type of provider. Since the connection is more important to you than the actual sex, I think you should start your screening process with that and then look for someone who likes to be a bottom.

Greg_blond reacted to + KensingtonHomo in Contacting Client for Repeat
I would be very put off by the OP described. I don't get the sense that most people posting here are fabulously wealthy, so hiring is an indulgence that we enjoy and probably need to budget for.
I am definitely open to providers we've seen before contacting us when they're in town. Sometimes it works financially and timing-wise, and that's awesome. Occasionally, I'll get what seems to be a "broadcast" text from a couple of providers who are offering discounts for massage in a certain period. Those are fine too.
I have some regulars I follow and who follow me on Insta. But when I'm looking to hire I text them directly. Because even though we're friendly, it's still a business relationship.

Greg_blond reacted to Jarrod_Uncut in Contacting Client for Repeat
This is why I strive to keep my expenses low (despite the difficulty in even that).
Spot on here. And I was thinking to myself tonight, I think it’s time to start doing things differently. Being an escort at 35, I really feel the inclination to let go a lot of “standards”, and step outside the box and do things differently. I notice how companies constantly market to clients (like me lol). They aren’t waiting for clients to come to them, they are actively out there reaching out/responding/contacting potential clients.
I’m not insinuating escorting should turn into high pressured sales pitching (and unfortunately with the level of unscrupulous time wasting clients who will love the attention, and have NO INTENT to book, I would advise against that system), but…I believe if done properly, the escort can initiate things sometimes.
Hell, biz is SLOW. Few on the forum really want to admit it, but the industry is going thru a drought. Business is in the doldrums in multiple cities, and the only way I’m still making it is because I travel every other week/post in other cities weekly even when I’m not there yet, to keep my schedule busy.
However: my rules would be, no contacting the next day for a session…unless the client may have hinted. I would give at least a couple weeks to a month and generally on a “I’m back in town again” basis.
Also, I’m contacting clients who look at my RentMen Ad…but mainly the ones who I see looked at me more than once, and who are in a city I plan or currently in.
I just booked a date with a client who I haven’t seen in a couple/few years. He looked at my profile, and his name/body looked familiar. I reached out to him, and he replied back and now we have something arranged.
That would be the least of our issues. This country needs some divine intervention.

Is it worth investing time in an Onlyfans account?
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts!

Lovely country. I've visited a few cities on a few occasions. Now you all have another reason to buy a ticket. Go for it.
Plus...Belgians truly make the only beer worth drinking.

The fries were amazing. As were the various stews, like rabbit. Yummmm. I definitely want to return and see more of your beautiful country. Bruges, Ghent... both on my bucket list.

Greg_blond reacted to Wolfer in Sex work fully legalized in belgium
I think most guys here use planetromeo (now just called Romeo), well, the hunqz part of that site. It's better known here. I think they might get more clients through there.
Those are excellent things to focus on. I would suggest also our fries, if you should ever come back.

I've been to Belgium once but only focused on the museums, chocolate and beer. 🤷♂️

Greg_blond reacted to Wolfer in Sex work fully legalized in belgium
As of this week, sex work has been fully legalized in Belgium. Which surprised me, because I thought it already was. It kind of was... It wasn't illegal to be or hire a sex worker, but everything around it was illegal: banks and accountants could not support sex workers in their business etc. That's all changed now, sex workers can now register as self-employed as a sex worker with full transparency and get all the same benefits.
It's even legal now to hire sex workers as employees and have them work for you to see other clients. So kind of like a legal framework for pimping, but with full protection for the sex workers based on Belgian employment law.
Apparently we are the first European country to do this (so the spokesperson claimed. Which confused me as I thought Germany and the Netherlands already had this. But legal nuances are sometimes hard to keep track of)
I'm really happy! Not sure how many working boys will actually start to report their income though hahaha.

Greg_blond reacted to BuffaloKyle in Considering not displaying number in my RentMen ads
I actually always like to contact a provider through messenger anyway. It saves me first off from having to give my stats and information when it's all on my client page for the provider to see. I'd hate to be a provider and get my phone blown up by fake calls and texts. I don't know how you guys can stand that. I'd also say the more filled out and detailed the client page is, and if they are a premium client, the more likely they are for real too.

Greg_blond reacted to John in 411 on TRONXL
Each side chooses the other. I'd prefer a provider having some interest in me to one just drilling.

Greg_blond reacted to Luv2play in 411 on TRONXL
I agree. The nicest thing to hear after a session is the escort saying "that was a nice connection we had".
In fact, I heard that last week from a provider I saw in Montreal. In a message he sent me after I got home.

I used to hit Fire Island in the weekends with one of my regular clients. Overnights are maybe not the best option for a first time encounter ....

Nose to nose, your toes are in it; toes to toes, your nose is in it.

Greg_blond reacted to sjmuktop in Street scene in London
I think their rates were a lot cheaper than the 'professional escorts' who would have been advertising their services in the gay magazines of the time, but still, I am sure they probably did have more money than you skint students did haha.
They used to lean against the railings (now gone) outside that Burger King too, and would be approached by potential clients, but not sure where they would go for sex. I imagine most of the clients would take a rent boy back to his hotel room or something? I know there is a false assumption and impression that street sex workers used to actually have sex in the streets/in dirty, dingy alleyways, but this is of course a load of bulls**t. Show me a discreet alleyway in Zone 1 of central London where you could go for sex and remain uninterrupted for more than 60 seconds ..... you can't !

These are pics I took in Paragonya 2 years ago.
The main floor is a busy bar and large lounge. Upstairs are the crusing areas and rooms for sex.

Greg_blond reacted to sjmuktop in London recommendations
Gay Soho is centred on Old Compton Street and Dean Street, though the whole area is very gay; quite a few gay pubs, bars, clubs and even a gay sauna there. Earls Court isn't very gay anymore - in fact it hardly is at all, though it is still home to the gay brothel Villa Gianni - located at 32 Nevern Place.

Greg_blond reacted to Alex93108 in London recommendations
SoHo is very much New York . Short for South of Houston ( as in Houston street ) pronounced house-ton . New Yorker here
I’m in London 3-5 times a year on average , was there just last week - not sure what Soho stands for - I tend to stay in Chelsea / Kensington
-
Greg_blond reacted to sjmuktop in London recommendations
It's Soho, not SoHo.
I believe SoHo is in New York City. But Soho is in London.
Just thought I'd clear that up (pedant that I am) 😁
No such thing as hustler bars over here - at least not to my knowledge, and I think I'm pretty "in the know" as far as the London/UK gay underworld and subcultures go haha.
