Craigslist

There is no content this morning on Craigslist for gay massage or escorts in Sydney or London. Could be just an aberration or is it going the way of Backpage?

If the owner/operators are based in the US then they may be liable under HR1865. I suspect it's going they way of backpage until the law is vetted by the courts.

Ugh. Logged onto craigslist to throw up a late-night ad, and notice the personal section is now gone. So frustrating.

I just saw a comment about doublelist.com which seems like CL but prohibits illegal ads.

Thanks for posting this @sydneyboy . I feel it may be an aberration that the Personals section continued in Europe and the UK long after it closed in the US.

 

Closure is a pity as over the years CL Personals introduced me numerous times to attractive young men who wanted to meet an older man and develop new interests. It's where I met my current boyfriend.

Category still there but no adds.

I am seeing more activity now on Doublelist.com, and they are adding new cities and features all the time. Similar to Craigslist Personals.

Just don’t use the word “massage”. Posted a hookup ad, used the phrase “into mutual massage, ...” and they deleted it. Sent me an email saying it was deleted “because it didn't fit with our site's terms”. Fucking, mutual oral, rimming and JO all good fun, but shame on you for wanting to rub each other.
