Boys from Grindr, social media, SA, etc.

[MikeBiDude]

I tried Tinder but got banned. I believe because my profile blurb/description (though it was clean) was sexual and I guess they have no tolerance for that stuff.

I’ve been surprised in the positive results on Tinder, from only being on the app a couple weeks.

 

As a bi guy I enjoy “swiping right” on some of the women as well...they are quite forward with their sugar daddy/allowance requests. I notice they quickly want to move to text messaging vs app messaging? Probably to protect their profiles from getting reported. In fact, a couple time after switching to texts I’ve quickly been “unmatched” on the app and all future conversation and negotiations are done there.

 

Surprising how many guys on Tinder are chatting me up too.? So far my one live Tinder Meet was A+ fun and for an extraordinarily reasonable allowance.

It wasn't a craigslist person who attempted to blackmail me and ruin my life. False sense of security if you think where they advertise or what they charge ensures your safety. Only "you" can ensure your own safety.

 

Sorry about what happened to you. At least if someone advertises on RM his credit card is on file . I’ve heard similar stories about scams and blackmailing but not related to escorting.

 

I hope you took all the proper actions to deal with him and properly reported him on here

Curious about success with Instagram guys

 

I'll be meeting my third instagram model this evening. All three have a four-figure follower count. Mind you, they also double as escorts and I found them on rentmen. Their instagram pages are completely "clean" with no hint that they escort.

Whether they are escorting from Instagram or RM they are escorts!

Good on you....somehow it’s more fun, right? Some of us enjoy the “hunt” more than just a slam dunk RM hire.

“Hunt”? You’re hiring one way or another, trying to save a few bucks too.

Today is the first time I ever heard of Model Mayhem. I checked it out and I was so excited to see so many guys in my rural area! But I gotta say... I perused dozens of profiles and I didn't see any indication that any of those guys are looking for anything other than professional modelling gigs.

It takes a bit of sleuthing, and you need to be pretty thick skinned. But try some of the hints above and one I quoted below....worst they can say is no.

 

is the same approach on IG and on ModelMayhem. I only initiate a conversation if get a strong gay vibe from a guy and/or he has a lot of nude or semi-nude pictures. I compliment them on their picture portfolio and ask if they are into 'private modelling sessions'.

Of course, one can always cruise their local Home Depot very early in the morning when day laborers are looking for work. It's surprising how many hot young guys would be amenable to a male on male arrangement for cash as opposed to swinging a hammer for some contractor.

[IndyGuy]

Home Depot? Seriously??!! I've never heard of that. Geez I live a sheltered live LOL. Do they just hang out in the parking lot? How do you approach them?

Wow! Way too adventurous for me, I admit. My risk meter just blew a fuse - sounds like a good way to get your teeth knocked out...

I think you could take some of the risk out of the propositioning day laborers if you use some Home Depot terminology, like.....

 

1. Any of you guys have experience in lubing an O-ring?

2. The ballcock in my bathroom needs some adjusting.

3. I'm needing someone to work a blowbag to clean out some crap in my drainpipe.

4. I have a pipe with two male-ends - anybody ever work with that?

Seen it twice on Grindr already.

I think this will help explain your question.

There is a complete continuum of course. On tinder and Grindr I have seen everything from the completely free once-only hookup, to the $350 an hour guy.

 

And in between, you have the guy that hope for generosity, but is fine anyway even if you are not generous, the guys who just want a little present from time to time (just like you would give to a boyfriend), the gold digger who hopes to marry a rich old guy, the guy who only does it if you are generous, but still enjoys doing it, the guy who can act well, but only does it for the money and doesn’t actually enjoy, the guy that doesn’t consider himself an escort but ask for the same price as an escort, and the guy that does consider himself an escort, but charge only half the usual price of an escort. And also there is the one who genuinely falls in love with you.

Here’s a little info...there’s an LA Times article I’m still searching for:

I almost hired a guy from Grindr but I found his other social media first and he turned out to be a little too grimy for me. He had tweeted about catching gonorrhea.

There's nothing hotter than getting a blowjob from a guy who can also drywall your bathroom.

Only 9.4% of the day laborers who were propositioned accepted the invite. Not very good odds versus the better chance of getting beat like a rented mule. You might better off with the "grimy" dude with gonorrhea that bloop almost hired.

Crap.

I thought this was going to be some kind of guidebook or quick reference card I could have laminated and keep in my car.

 

And it’s government-funded. What the hell are our tax dollars going for !

Sounds like a good plot for porno... I wonder how many attempts that would take in real life.

 

Obviously now some of yinz will say you did it last week.

Well one is documented (9.4%) vs “getting beat like a rented mule” not so empirical ?

 

Many of the options in this thread are obviously AYOR some more risk than others. Kinda like walking the boulevard in the day, or using cruisingforsex.com when it was popular. Everyone has to be comfortable with their level of risk.

 

For me Grindr, Tinder, Seeking.com, (Craigslist/BP in the past) etc have a risk level I have a method of gauging and managing.

 

Walking the boulevard, propositioning a local “bracero”, exceed my risk comfort zone. Everyone needs to figure that for themselves.

One of the best Noah's ARC episodes - Ricky brings home a hot day laborer (ostensibly to do some work) and they end up having sex. How it plays out is really hot - you have to watch it to appreciate.

Oh yeah a funny line - Noah or one of the other buddies predicts after seeing the guy, "If you pick him the only thing that's gonna get done is you!" Turned out he was right!
