The Lures of Madison Avenue*

[+ Lucky]

I have been checking out the ads in the gay rags for escorts and models and wonder if anyone can tell me why so many guys are "new in town." Is that a good come-on for you? What is the difference between "extremely handsome" and "very Handsome?" Why do so many masseurs want you to know their dick size? And if you are just getting a massage, do you need to know that the masseur is HIV negative?

Can a "serious massage" be "seriously sensual?". Who wants to be serious during a massage anyway? Do you want a"rectum wrecking" massage? Why do so many guys have black stripes across their face? Isn't it a relief to know that a promise of "no intelligent conversation" probably attracts a lot of business? What does "Let's Party" mean in an escort context? Is there a difference between discrete and discreet?

I won't even start in on the names. Some are pretty clever, but "Drax?" At least the ads here are in color. The poor people in SF have to put up with really bad quality black and white.

 

What are your favorite advertising oddities for escorts and masseurs?

Using the Franco DiSantis secret decoder ring, I'd guess it goes something like this....

 

"New in town" = Needy bottom that can't get enough

"Extremely handsome" = Such a good bottom you won't care how he looks

"Very handsome" = Doggy (looking away) may be the best position

"Let's party" = Stick it in already

 

You get the idea. :9
