robberbaron4u Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Prior to the AIDS pandemic, the escort industry at New Orleans flourished; indeed, several agencies did business in that city. As you stated, the "pickins' are slim" these days; I "import" on the occasions NOLA is on my calendar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jusmeinbr Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 That’s PRECISELY why, when MZB (Boston), https://app.rent.men/MZB, visited New Orleans two months ago, I met with six (6) times! Providers of his caliber are nonexistent in the Big Easy, and it’s rare one like him even visits the city anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decatur Guy Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 (edited) I think of New Orleans as comparative to Las Vegas in many ways -- cities very oriented toward tourism, partying, a general lack of sexual restraint among residents and guests and all that entails. And I've also thought NOLA was surprisingly lacking in the number of providers given its party town status and general accepting atmosphere. So I've looked up some stats. Population of New Orleans: 376,971 Population of Las Vegas: 646,790 Population of New Orleans metro area: 1.26 million Population of Las Vegas metro area: 2.23 million Number of visitors to New Orleans in 2019: 19.76 million Number of visitors to Las Vegas in 2019: 42.5 million Number of pages of providers in New Orleans on RM: 2 Number of pages of providers in Las Vegas on RM: 9 Based on these figures, it stands to reason Las Vegas would have more providers than New Orleans. But while Vegas generally doubles NOLA on residential population and triples it on visitors, more or less, Vegas outstrips NOLA on providers, with 4.5 times more. I, too, wonder what's going on there. And don't think critical mass of population crossing some threshold can explain it all either. Palm Springs has 8 pages of providers on RM and it has a population of 46,000 in the town and 487,000 in the metro and 14 million metro visitors in 2019. So there are factors at play beyond sheer numbers. For the population, Palm Springs beats them both.

BonVivant Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 The only explanation is things change. New Orleans may have been a hot gay party center at one time, but it isn’t any longer. When I went in 2003 it was. Then Katrina came along and literally washed stuff and people away. Maybe it permanently changed things. coriolis888 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
