BYOH2O

Yes indeed - very wise.

When I turn up at an escort's place for an incall session, I've found that the escort will usually offer me a drink (usually a glass of water or a fruit juice) just before we get down to business. Of course it's just being hospitable I guess, but it's something that I always say NO to. 

I'm far too paranoid. I always think what if he's put something in it? There's only one regular escort who I like and trust enough who I allow to fetch me a drink on arrival at his place just before we start the session.

I was wondering if anyone else here is also too paranoid to accept a drink from a provider, especially if it's one they are meeting for the first time?

I had a question for providers and clients, but probably more on the provider side.

I've been openly gay in this area, ever since college, but there's one thing I've never done - march or appear in the Chicago Pride Parade. I belong to 2 gay groups that march there (one connected to work, the other more social), but I've turned down any invitations, citing an obsessive ex-boyfriend I'm worried about meeting.

However, although that "ex-boyfriend" exists, it's not my real reason. Of course, I'm worried about seeing providers I've worked with. I can only think of one that might cause a scene (he did cause a scene once, which was why I kicked him out of my place, and made him even angrier - he tried texting angry messages at me weeks later using someone else's cell phone), but it would only take one scene to complicate my, say, work ilfe.

For escorts and providers - have you ever had any problems at Pride Parades, with such call-outs?

I've only attended Gay Pride once, that was London Pride 2013. I didn't march in or watch the actual parade, but I attended the street parties afterwards in Soho (London's main gay area). The streets, the pubs and the bars of Soho were absolutely PACKED like you couldn't imagine. It took me over an hour to get served a drink at Comptons bar on Old Compton Street. I swore that I would never attend a Pride event ever again after that. 

The only good thing about it was that I attended a HustlaBall event later that night at club Electric in Brixton. One of the sleaziest but yet horniest events I've ever attended!

Now to answer your question - as I say, I've only attended Pride the once (in 2013), and I didn't encounter any of the escorts I'd been with up to that point during my time there. If I saw an escort I knew out in public, I wouldn't acknowledge them anyway. 

EDIT: I know that escorts in the big cities (such as London) tend to be extremely busy with clients on Pride nights - usually fully booked and impossible to meet unless you'd planned well in advance, due to the amount of new guys in town for the event who want to get their rocks off with a hot escort.

Bloody hell, I thought it was just me.

I've had five blank profiles on RM send me private photo requests - when I don't even have private photos.

When I've clicked on some of the profiles, they have been deleted or don't exist.

Very strange.

So it's been happening to a lot of us then?

I did click "accept" on a couple of the requests (even though I've got no private pics to show), now I'm worried that something bad will happen!?

Thanks for pointing that out.  When I had checked his ad about a week ago, that photo was not there.  There were quite a number of locked photos which now appear to have been unlocked.   This must have been one of them.  So the only question is whether that's really his ass or has the photo been photo shopped.  Anyone with personal experience to report?

Not sure if it's photoshopped or not, but damn does that ass look so perfect. I'd love it sitting on my face 😈

No photo showing his face and butt which makes me skeptical.  

Photo number 2 on his profile shows his face and butt...

Yes!  Those big, sturdy railings were part of the reason they called it The Rack.

Afterhours outside Hurricane Louie's in Earl's Court between there and the tube station was always filled with us guys who were not rentboys, but were not wanting to go home alone either!

 

By the way, I loved your comment about calling the rent boys 'Burger Queens' 😂 

I hadn't heard of Hurricane Louie's, so I had to do a quick Google search. Did you perhaps mean 'Harpoon Louis'?

As students on a budget in London back then, a lot of us would go to that Burger King during our crazy nights out.  The only way we could afford to go out was by having cheap dinners at cheap, but filling fast-food places.   I remember being totally intrigued by what were obviously rent boys swirling in and out of there.  We called them the Burger Queens.  They probably had more money in their pockets than any of us did!!!

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 !

Seattle seems to be experiencing a large influx of young, very well endowed, Latino escorts. All of them cute. Up here, it is either feast or famine. 

 

And at the moment it is feast! Enjoy it while it lasts, friend 😁

Brazilian beauty 'Enrik'. 

Colombian hottie 'Aaron Walker' from RentMen.

I paid him upfront and he never showed up. 

Oh mate, I feel for you. 

Never ever do that again. Learn from this mistake and never pay an escort prior to meeting - even if they have hundreds of positive reviews. It's just too dodgy a request. 

William Carioca. Does anyone remember this Brazilian hottie from Rio?

He was a porn actor and did straight porn mostly, but also appeared in several scenes where he fucked TS girls and also appeared in one gay scene.

According to someone from the LPSG forums, he was at one point escorting (for men) in Rio.

Says member since 15 March 2010 and claims to be 29.  Hmmmmmm . . . .

Entirely possible. That would have made him 18 when he started escorting.
