Milo Janus Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Please, excuse my naivete. I've been scrolling through RM and am absolutely gobsmacked at the number of male escorts, just in his country alone. I never thought there were this many men out there willing to offer themselves as escorts. Am I really this naive or has this always been the norm? spidir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ keroscenefire Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 IMO, it's down a little bit. At least it seems like that in Denver. Definitely have seen more pages of escorts in the past. Maybe it's just a winter lull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harryinny Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 With sexuality much more in the open, men and women having sex earlier, same sex marriage, etc... I think that many men tempted by the easy cash (as they would think) launch themselves to escort...plenty of straight and bi guys going for it.

+ DynamicUno Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Honestly, I wonder that there's not more, considering the attraction of easy money potentially getting a few hundred dollars a pop. RM in NYC only lists 870 which seems paltry for a city of 8.4 M. The discouraging factors push down the numbers considerably. RM's near monopoly in the US for escort listings is an interesting factor. The downtier sites like mintboys have a much different mix of guys and there doesn't seem to be much overlap with RM. I'm guessing mintboys got most of the guys looking to make a quick buck after the demise of Backpage and Craigslist. pubic_assistance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TokyoNewbie Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 There is a huge demand always, also so many people like sex and good at it. Is it not a dream job to do what you like? Great body, equipment, face, health issue, emotional difficulty etc. so many requirements, so definitely not an easy job…. pubic_assistance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ DrownedBoy Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 At least locally (Chicago), there's been an influx of new providers during the last 2 months or so. Even better, not all of them are flakes. So there won't be any shortage for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pubic_assistance Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Santa Monica Blvd. In LA used to have as many boys for hire hanging out in the street as there are on three cities worth of guys on Rent.men. Sex work has always been an easy buck when you're young and pretty. You make more in an hour than the suckers on minimum wage make working 8 hours. + Pensant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t give you a percentage, but consider discounting that number at least to some extent. Some are using those listings solely to drive people to their OF/JFF sites. Others are dipping a toe (or other appendage) into the pool to see what it’s all about because social media/internet and somewhat less social stigma makes it a lot easier to slap up an ad and see what happens. The number of people truly escorting and taking it seriously likely hasn’t changed much. And they’re still heavily concentrated in a few urban centers. IMHO. It’s my observation, others may see it differently and I respect that. pubic_assistance, + Charlie and seattlebottom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ Charlie Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I did the majority of my hiring back in the days when there were no Internet escort sites. Instead, there were print ads in magazines, like the Advocate's pink pages, or I simply called an agency and told them what I was looking for. There was less choice, but it made the choices easier.

TorontoDrew Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 On Rentmen over the years, Toronto usually has anywhere between 160 and 200 listing. It changes frequently. The number is usually the highest around Pride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not refer to workers who receive a paltry minimum wage as "suckers." They're every day folk who do what's best for them at the time. The minimum wage should be increased country-wide, for folks can't live on it and it alone. Last evening I reflected on my "go-to-guy" who lives in the San Francisco Bay Area and who I have been seeing off and on for almost five years now. I think he's in his mid 30s although he lists his age as 28. He's held up reasonably well and still looks damn good, but currently my two faults with him are his smoking and his change of sexuality in his ad. For years he classified himself as "Bisexual;" today it's "Straight," and I've seen a change in his behavior when we've recently played. Before he super-passionately kissed, allowed and desired his ass to be probed by my fingers allowing me "to tap that hot spot," and the last time that we were together, he used "straight porn" on his cell in order to get hard. That was a complete turn off for me and have given me cause to my seeing him in the future. Currently his fee is $300 per hour--up from the $250 that I've given him up until last month. My thoughts were in the range of how long does he intend to escort. This has never been discussed between the two of us and might never be if I intend to part the way. + DrownedBoy, + KensingtonHomo, Dr.Daddy and 1 other 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
