So, I met Marc Dylan ...

[EZEtoGRU]

..... but I would call it something else that I regularly blow out my arsehole Some of what was written here was as "bitter old queen" as it gets

Well aren't you on a classy roll today. I bet you're just a joy to have as company at dinner. How ironic that you're the one accusing someone of being a bitter old queen.

[bigvalboy]

Well I am sitting here literally laughing out loud to myself in remembering the previous discussions involving Marc. Yes he did participate for a short time on the forum and even ventured south to the dreaded political forum. He was repeatedly challenged and attacked over what some posters here claim he did or did not say, or did or did not do. He emailed me and asked if I thought he should continue posting here. My advice..."Run like Hell" the boys I said, "will not let you win this one." It is no wonder that, as someone mentioned, that he doesn't seem to be around.

 

I am not privy to the encounter that some of you had with Marc in regards to HWP, but I do know, as several have mentioned here, HWP was not mentioned. I was the one who brought it up, and he was a perfect gentlemen in his response, and it was I who volunteered my physical description to him. As OL and others have mentioned, it is all together possible that he was uncomfortable with the vibe he was getting from those he ultimately chose to reject.

 

Marc and I over dinner have discussed many things, some of which included accusations made against him by some of the posters here. I listened to his response, and in the end I believe what he tells me. For those that were rejected, as I said previously, it is never a pleasant thing to go through, but I personally feel that Marc is not the one to blame here....He was completely open and honest from the beginning. I even encouraged him to log on to my profile (at the time I had a picture of myself up) he declined the offer and told me that doing so was completely unnecessary. I know that he never looked, because the names of those clicking on to my profile are listed.

 

To this day he remains one of the best hires I have ever had, However he is clearly not for everyone. Perhaps it is time for some of you to just move on...

 

Well that's it for me, I have said what I needed to say....sooooo for me at least, I'm gonna just move on down the road...

Marc was always very courteous in his private replies to me and then disparaged me here on the Forum when I only reported the truth. I am not HWP- and can definitely understand if Marc doesn't perform very well under that circumstance. I'm the one who said in the discussion of race in another thread that unfortunately personal desires/feelings because of the way the majority of us are made, it's possible an escort wouldn't be able to work with certain types of clients.

 

I'm glad he was a good hire for BVB and for several others. I also urge anyone who seems to fit his criteria to hire him. I'm sure you will have a great time with him. But as much as you promote him as being the next best thing to sliced bread, Marc seems to be more selective than a lot of guys that have reigned in the past as 'The Current Most Popular Escort Around'. So everyone is entitled to his own opinion- but in this case you need to remain cognizant that your experience seems to be less universal than is the usual case with most escorts of similar stature- and that Marc because of that fact may not fit very well in their exalted pantheon.

 

I am now EXEUNT'ing this thread. I'm tired of reading OL21's unfounded vituperations about people he doesn't even know.

Good advice. Just like in politics for every stance you take on any issue, you offend roughly 50% of the population. So every opion he expressed on here could possibly offend 50% of the readership.

 

What an almost impossible tightrope the escorts wanting to participate here must have to walk!

[Lohengrin1979]

First, I don't think anyone would call "escorting" a "main stream business" and second, escorting is akin to a "private club" and private clubs can do whatever they want. Third, when I first hired Mr. Dylan "my appearance" was never discussed. Not my weight, not my age, nothing. I'm definitely -- as young gay men would say -- "past my sell by date" -- and I'm 20 lbs overweight, balding, and about as "average" as it gets. Mr. Dylan has never made me feel that for one second .... so maybe there are other, less obvious reasons that Mr. Dylan chooses to pass on certain people that have nothing to do with appearance

 

Presenting opinion and assumption with a smiley icon when they are truly venomous is tiresome, operalover. Being 20 pounds over weight would not violate Mr. Dylan's standards, true, but you can be sure many of the men who hire escorts are more overweight than that. I will say that Mr. Dylan has stated that he will offer massage to anyone, regardless of age, weight, what have you. It is only his escorting that has the restrictions. Furthermore, I highly doubt you're familiar enough with either the posters you referenced or their run-ins with Mr. Dylan to make a comment such as the final one in your post.

I don't think I agree with the above poster on anything but agree with him here 100%. This has been my exact same experience with Mr. Dylan and I, too, told him not to bother posting in the forums here as it was a no-win situation for him.

 

Yea, end of subject for me too. The haters will have their hate. Fine. Yes, I'm an old queen but I'm not the bitter one ... the bitter ones are the ones who insist on continuing to bitch and make-up shit about Mr. Dylan. Enough already.

To be fair to Marc, which I think I have been in spite of any claims to the contrary, I think he discussed this when he was posting here. If my memory is correct , and BVB may want to chime in as he and Marc are buds which is definitely something I can't say, I think Marc said he had done bareback when 1st starting out ( that website was from 2011) but that he wasn't planning on performing bare any longer.

lol lol....Nice try, you're not dragging me into this conversation. When I said, "I have said all that I need to say, and that I was moving on down the road" I meant it....AND my apology to the original OP for participating in a thread that he probably had no intention having deteriorate the way that this one did.

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is "HWP"?

what is "HWP"?

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is "HWP"?

Politically correct way of saying no fatties. Which rules me out.

 

And now my mind is wandering to the painfully thin (as in Christian Bale in "The Machinist") and wondering if he'd pass muster.

Thanks, Jack. LOL, I hope I qualify with only 10 or 15 lbs. extra. Truly, tho, there really are soooo many wonderful, hot, and, yes, caring, escorts out there who don't give a rat's ass about HWP or, for that matter, age. If the escort in question wants to run his business in that manner, it's truly up to him; he'll simply have that much less business.

I've had communication with Marc a while back. He let me off easily, saying that he was very selective on who he kissed. That's a deal-breaker for me, so I stopped inquiring. However, if HWP is critical for him, then I'd have been turned down for that reason too. And, frankly, I don't have a problem with that. I understand the attitudes of those guys for whom size is an issue. It is for me, too. That being said, guys with whom I've had sex (escorts and non) know that I'm kind, respectful, and passionate; I am not HWP, but I'm not ugly in the face, have a good spirit, and guys who can get beyond my hefty size find that out. Those who can't ... well ... they miss out.

[+ purplekow]

Hate to throw water on the fire, but for those of us Mr. Dylan declines on the basis of appearance, all of this praise should be tempered with the fact that there is an undress code to enter Mr. Dylan's world. He was very polite with me in texts but the end result was "Sorry you do not meet my physical standards." So for those putting Mr. Dylan on their list, be sure he is not going to pass on you.

 

I am perplexed as to what in this post was bitchy or deserving of the venomous responses it produced.

 

Mark was polite and turned me down related to HWP, which he stated plainly. I thanked him for his honesty in an e mail and moved on. This occured 6 months go. i offered this post as informational for those considering hiring Mr Dylan. Not every escort is perfect for every client and I appreciate an escort who will say no rather than grin and bear it.

 

Informing readers of escort limitations and well as extolling their virtues is of one of the main goals of this forum. i do not intend to allow the brickbats of others to influence my posting. I hope civilized discussion between people with different points of view will be a hallmark of this forum.

[Strafe13]

Bitter. Old. Queen. Period.

 

I have to agree with Purplekow, EZEtoGRU, and others. There was absolutely nothing in Purplekow's comment that operalover21 quoted to warrant the nastiness of this comment. Marc Dylan was not "dissed" or otherwise insulted. It was simply pointed out that he does not accept certain clients based on their physical appearance. Is that good or bad? Who knows. Purplekow certainly didn't say so in the comment operalover21 quoted. I think it's any escort's prerogative to discriminate against any client, so long as he is honest and upfront about it, and reveals same in a way that does not unduly embarrass or humiliate the client.*

 

Up until PK's comment, the praise heaped upon Mr. Dylan was so effusive, that it did seem as though he was one of those escorts with whom any client would have an amazing time, but that's clearly not the case. Rather, PK's and Gare1th's comments brought the thread back down to earth, and let the readers know very valuable information. I'd think that would benefit Mr. Dylan as well, as it wouldn't be in his best interest to have a bunch of people whom he'd never take on as clients bombard him with inquiries based on their having an erroneous impression from the original praise-heaping comments that he'd be their dream escort. I can't see why operalover21 had a problem with that, and even if he did, why he'd say something so nasty in response. I was rather taken back upon reading that comment, and for the life of me could not comprehend why the insult was thrown. It makes me reconsider posting here for fear of being attacked for no good reason.

 

In contrast, BigValBoy's comments expressed how much he enjoyed Dylan's services, noting that he fit Dylan's criteria and had a great time, and others who fit the criteria would likely also have a great time. There was absolutely nothing wrong with that. Different strokes for different folks. I find Mr. Dylan to be handsome, although he doesn't knock my socks off, and were I not a lovely voluptuous big-boned sista with an ass you could put a drink on, I'd seriously consider hiring him. But, I now know that he and I wouldn't make a good match, so no harm, no foul, although if Dylan ever got so hammered that he needed someone to take him home, I guarantee I'd put it on him and he'd definitely change his ways, cuz I know how to work what my granny gave me! :-) Oh well,... Ironically, BVB and I both love a certain escort based in LA/North Hollywood, and while BVB and I have completely different body types, this escort seems to appreciate that kind of diversity. Like I said, different strokes. But it's most important that the client be informed about an escort's restrictions beforehand to avoid awkward and embarrassing situations. I've perused Mr. Dylan's blog (didn't see a link to any ads), and he doesn't mention any client restrictions, or even escorting (at least from what I skimmed through), so absent this forum, I'd never have known about this issue before contacting him.

 

Even more so, I find that it strained credulity to express disbelief at Daddy's characterizing such a nasty comment as cyber-bullying, particularly after quoting Daddy's post, wherein there was a picture that included several definitions of cyber-bullying, and the comment at issue fit at least three, perhaps four of those clearly listed definitions. Come on...

 

*Whether the basis for the discrimination is legitimate or proper, either in general, or within the bounds of this profession, is an entirely different question that's been discussed quite a bit recently and last year in other threads.

and were I not a lovely voluptuous big-boned sista with an ass you could put a drink on, I'd seriously consider hiring him.
