I’m pretty sure if you talk to a homeless person, the first thing on their mind isn’t “down with them gays”—it’s more likely “I wish I wasn’t homeless.” The real issue here is society failing the disenfranchised as a whole, including the LGBTQ+ community.

It’s enjoyable. I’ll see anything with Kathy Bates. (They should also renew High Potential. Great show!)

And when I want them to stay, I also pay.

I’m curious to hear more from the OP. In my experience, I haven’t really encountered this with the providers I’ve met. Most of the escorts I’ve come across—especially in NY and LA—are doing very well for themselves. Very well! A lot depends on the geographical market, and it’s not true for everyone of course. I tend to hire escorts who are at least 30, mostly 35+. One lives in a luxury doorman building in midtown (I had to cover his Uber from his midtown apartment to my midtown hotel, but that’s another story), another lives in a gorgeous penthouse on the Upper West Side, and one has a vacation home in Puerto Rico. I once had a provider tell me he was having a difficult month paying his bills, yet he proceeded to take off his Apple Watch and strip off his Tom Ford underwear. Just as their time with clients may involve elements of fantasy, the perception of escorting can sometimes mask the complexities of their realities.

I’m more hesitant if they’re “straight.”

Sir Peter also has one. Sexy on him!! Fits his “brand.” Also an amazing provider!!

You’re not imagining it! Amazon Prime Video has indeed introduced more ads recently. As of 2023, they announced plans to roll out ads during shows and movies, similar to how other streaming services like Hulu and Netflix have ad-supported tiers. The ads are now included in the standard subscription, but Amazon offers I believe an ad-free option for an additional fee.

A lovely and charming man!! He will make you smile from ear to ear.

True empathy isn’t conditional. If you only extend empathy to people who cope with depression in ways you personally approve of, then that’s not empathy at all—it’s judgment. Dismissing their struggles just because their coping mechanisms don’t align with your expectations shows a lack of understanding and compassion. You’re essentially saying some people deserve your empathy and others don’t, which is not only ignorant but harmful. Empathy means understanding the full scope of someone’s pain, not picking and choosing who’s worthy of it.

Let me be in the minority then! Like I said, initial hygiene matters. This guy showed up, showered, clean, happens to be in shape—if he’s sweating after pounding my ass for two hours straight, good—let him! I’m not going to stop him and let that take away from our moment. I’ll take him as is from the second that moment starts, just like he’s taking me!

That’s a great suggestion and a helpful example of what to say. I understand it might be frustrating for you, but keep in mind, this is your business; it’s your job. For some, especially the person who started this thread, social interactions and communication can be more challenging. What comes easy for some may not be so easy for others.

I had asked if he wanted to chat briefly after he had time to rest, and I didn’t hear back for hours, which was fine. When he did respond, he asked for my name, what I was into and if I was available… even though it was all literally right there in the text above. I’m glad you had a better experience.

You’ve mentioned being scammed once before. If this is a practice you’re comfortable with, I wish you all the best.

I love that you have a collection of underwear - both new and favorites - for clients. 🥰
