Advertising Rates Going Up On Rentmen FOR ALL

[+ Lance_Navarro]

Two days ago my friend posted on Twitter that advertising rates are going up for all on Rentmen. I've had my ad on there for 6 years, and am paying the original price for my gold ad, but it's sounding like they are gonna be bringing everybody up to the current rate of $79. Has anyone else already seen this happen on their last billing? How do you feel? On one hand, there's no contract guaranteeing or grandfathering old rates for anyone, but also, it doesn't seem they are offering anything more, nor are they letting providers know about it.

It's been $80 for Chicago for a while I think. I just recently renewed mine and cried a lil.

Thanks to @ special member of the forum, I won't have to lose sleep over my RentMen ad until I turn 31 this year...

I already declined to renew my ad on there since they won’t allow me to show my dick Ad is worthless to me as a top if I can’t show what I’m planning to fuck people with... the boys need visual inspiration!!

 

plus on principle any ad venue that discriminates against trans guys doesn’t deserve my money

 

So bye bye RentMen, I’m out!

 

I’ve been getting creative with my advertising in the new age of SESTA/FOSTA and simply don’t need to pay for highly censored advertising from a company that’s discriminating against me... *shrug*

I haven't experienced Rentmen restricting pics unless it shows someone else or penetration. Could you clarify what you mean by "they won't allow you to show dick"?

CIS men who top are allowed to show your hard-ons, but trans men who top aren’t allowed to show identical type of photos since they consider our dicks to be “sex toys”.

 

Allowing cis men to show hard-ons is legally risky for RentMen since it implies sexuality, and sex + money = no no. However, allowing potential clients to see cis guys’ dicks is high priority for RM, so they have chosen to remove rates from the site rather than removing the photos of hard-ons. Allowing trans men to show what we’re able to offer when we top is apparently NOT a priority for RM, so they have banned it for no particular reason. There’s no additional legal risk for them involved in allowing us to show them... it’s exactly the same legal implication as showing a hard cock. It could arguably be suggesting sex for money, but it could arguably be simply “modeling” in the same way that a guy with a hard-on could be modeling or could arguably be suggesting sex for money.

 

Basically, I’ve tried to post photos in identical types of poses based on how cis male tops on RM advertise themselves, but mine are denied because apparently my dick isn’t real enough for RM.

 

I thought the denials would be limited to penetration, another person, or sexuality too. For example, I do have photos where I’m teasing the tip of a dildo with my tongue, and I EXPECT those to be restricted against being used in public since they are depicting a sexual act. That’s not what I have an issue with, just to be clear.

 

But if every cis guy who tops can show his hard-on that he’s offering to fuck people with, and I’m restricted against showing what I top people with, it makes the ad totally useless for me. If I can’t show visually what I’m offering then all people can imagine when they see my ad is that my pussy is on the table. And frankly, it IS on the table, but it’s definitely not the prime attraction, how I end up with regular clients, or what I’m paying for advertising to promote. I’m 90% TOP and my regular clients all come to me / stay with me for my topping skills primarily. All the websites that achieve successful conversions for me allow me to show what I top with. So for RM to deny me that when every cis guy is allowed to show what he tops with renders it useless in addition to being generally shitty and discriminatory.

 

As a specific example, a cis guy is allowed to stand naked with his hands folded behind his head, his hard on dangling between his legs. Or maybe even one hand holding the base of his dick. If I try to post an identical pose wearing my strap on, in either case my photos are considered pornographic and denied.
