Giovanni: Review and Response

[kjun]

After a read of the review of Giovanni and his response it appears that the reviewer had important complaints that Giovanni did not address. He should have told the client that he only sucks with a rubber prior to the meeting. Also to require the guy to go out to buy a condom and then tell him his time is up does not seem fair. The more important revelation is that he never mentioned another client until the client called his hand on not being fair. Giovanni loses on this one.

Yes, I found his response almost irritating!

Similar Experience

 

I had the same type of experience with Giovanni a couple of years ago. He showed up and did not live up to his promises and left. I told him I was not happy about it and he seemed unfazed.

[BaronArtz]

Exactly. It's better not to respond, than to respond in this brain dead manner.

[Guest Merlin]

I agree with all the above. But I am surprised that the client did not have even one condom. Common sense should have told him to be prepared.

[JT Brooklyn]

Damn Shame...I guess his M/O has changed since 07/07 when he was Reviewed by U.K. who at one time did quite a few Creditable Reviews around here!

I dont disagree but size and selection would be important, especially if you suck a cock with a condom. How many types to carry around. Condom for anal that takes one, but in this case two were needed. I do think a gentleman if he only performs oral with a condom should say so and second if he only allows oral on himself with a condom he should say so. Not fond of the taste of condom so I would pass. Getting oral is not that important to me, I prefer to be j/o. I had a guy start to put a condom on me and I said what are doing and he said to give oral and said no, and he still wanted condom on me because he did not want the cum to touch him and said dont worry get me a towel and I will do it myself on the other side of the bed.

I agree. Giovanni blew it. He had multiple opportunities to make the situation better and still leave the client satisfied. Unfortunately, he missed every one of them.

[JackTwist]

I would be very pissed if an escort waits until we're in the middle of sex to announce that he only sucks cock with the recipient wearing a condom, then informs me he didn't bring condoms. I'd say, Hit the road!

[josephga]

I agree he should have provided condoms. However his rentboy ad does say always safe. Always safe too him might mean condoms for everything

That is very true and this situation is another worthwhile reminder to go into some details in advance. I had an experience recently with an escort that only did oral with a condom and while it is not my preference, I was fine with it (and I had an ample supply of condoms). I don't quite understand why the escort would not have condoms on hand considering his statements about safe sex. From what I gather, this encounter was an incall to the escorts place (from the review stating "...we get back to his parking lot..."), so surely he should have supplies on hand. The response by the escort is certainly lacking and I am put off by it.

[RockHard]

Every customer must read between the lines.

 

Here are a few rules I live by before hiring:

 

1. Ignore all ads that feature the word "hot" to describe the escort, especially if the word appears in front of the word "Italian." There is nothing worse than an escort who is too into himself and Italians are vain by default. (How else could a male dominated culture tolerate Berlusconi?)

 

2. If you don't understand drugs and drug addiction, never respond to an escort ad that lists PNP under TASTES/SPECIALTIES/FETISHES. Men who do drugs are liars. You absolutely can't trust them under any circumstances. Lying is the leading symptom of drug addiction. It's impossible to find a drug addict who doesn't lie. I'm not saying that Giovanni is a drug addict. Addiction comes in all shapes, sizes, forms, and degrees. Even casual users can be addicts. If I see the letters PNP, I automatically assume the escort does drugs and, therefore, can never be trusted.

 

3. Whenever is see the word "scat" included in TASTES/SPECIALTIES/FETISHES, I cringe. What healthy, self-respecting man would eat another man's shit (or allow another man to eat his)? How can you possibly claim to be "very safe and clean," as Giovanni claims in his response, when you include the word scat to describe what kind of sex you like?

[Steven_Draker]

That reminds me of the thread "Who brings the condoms and lube?" in the Ask an Escort Forum. Unfortunately in this case miscommunication (or lack of communication) between the escort and the client have led to a very unsatisfactory meeting. We often assume too many things ...

 

I always carry a couple of non-lubricated condoms in my bag because some clients prefer to use a condom for oral. With the regular sized condoms, the extra large, the XXL Magnums and the female condom that makes a lot, but I've learned from past experiences to always be prepared for every eventuality. We all learn from experience.

RockHard, You make three excellent points here. I couldn't agree more with your "rules." Thanks for sharing them!

[Steven_Draker]

A large Menu ...

Regarding the TASTES/SPECIALTIES/FETISHES Menu on Rentboy I see often that some escorts tick every box possible (sort of catchall).

 

I wouldn't put too much weight on it. Always check directly with the source.

[RockHard]

Perception can be a killer. Please, escorts, do put some weight on it.

 

Regarding the TASTES/SPECIALTIES/FETISHES Menu on Rentboy I see often that some escorts tick every box possible (sort of catchall).

That may be true. Lazy escorts are an automatic turn-off. To me, lazy translates to an escort who simply lays there and expects the client to do all the work. The surest way for an escort to offer the marketplace a perception that the escort is lazy or, worse, the escort is indifferent towards his escort business, be sure to check every box without considering the ramifications.

 

Dear escorts, it's never a good idea to plant a negative seed in the customer's mind, especially if "scat" or any other controversial fetish is not your thing. Please take the time to check the boxes that do apply and don't check the boxes that don't apply. Whatever is stated in your ad, I take at face value. I won't inquire further. If the escort checks "scat" because he was too lazy or too stupid to consider the ramifications, I automatically move on to the next ad. There are far too many sexy, smart, safe, self-respecting escorts out there, who know how to present themselves professionally, that no customer needs to settle for anything less.

[Phil_musc]

Amen, Rockhard. Especially on rule number 1. I thought I was the only one who thought this. I could probably be talked into extending your rule to Latino guys too. No offense, gentlemen, but my experiences have led me to these conclusions also.

[Epigonos]

There are three absolute deal breakers for me. 1.) An escort who lists PNP, 2.) an escort who requires a condom for oral and, 3) an escort who doesn't kiss. As far as I'm concerned I would rather use my hand than put up with the above three.

[hornytwells]

Am completely in agreement with Rockhard-if I see the word scat listed, or if the escort is a smoker or doesn't take time to list non-smoker, I just move on. The idea of scat, and the smell of smokers breath or smoke on their clothes is one of the biggest turn-offs for me

[Epigonos]

Guys I didn't even think to include scat, golden showers, and smoker in my list of deal breakers. The first two are simply beyond My comprehension. When it comes to smoking so few people, in my world, do it anymore that I frequently fail to think about it unless I am reading and escorts ad. Sorry about that and thanks guys for making me clarify.

I agree with what everyone has written and also agree that Giovanni missed the mark when it came to his response. Clearly he did not argue with some of the main points that the client mentioned....which leads me to believe that this charade took place.

 

One point I must mention as a client is that I am a smoker and in setting up an appointment with an escort I always mention that point. Amazing how many escorts who list themselves as non-smokers will light up with me after rolling around in the sack.

 

Only once did I have an escort say we were not a match because I was a smoker since he was allergic. I found that being honest with my smoking vice always works best.

f and Italians are vain by default. (How else could a male dominated culture tolerate Berlusconi?)

 

 

We are not ALL vain, and not ALL Italians tolerate Berlusconi!

[BaronArtz]

Agreed, caro xafnndapp! Not vain, but always stylish. There is a difference. And I am not a fan of Berlusconi either, but he always wears nice suits ...

[Phil_musc]

I hope this doesn't mean that I have to turn in my G card but who is Berlusconi and why should I care? Sorry xafnndapp - you are the exception (although I was limiting my comment to escorts and not to us mere mortals!).
