Fin Fang Foom On Tony/Miami's Review

[Will]

I think Rick's point is so important that I started an independent thread on Homophobia at M4M in the Lounge.

>OK...so please post your pic (body & face, please) so we can

>all poke fun at you. Also please post info about your job

>so we can do something to hurt your business.

 

Yes, yes, we all know that this is not a level playing field. However, there is a point where this argument becomes sophistry. Escorts make a conscious decision to put themselves in the public eye. I would never do it and I give them enough credit for understanding the implications of doing so themselves.

 

Everyone with an IQ larger than their shoe size understands that there are drawbacks to being in the public eye. Not everyone is going to like you. Not everyone is going to say nice things about you. It goes with the territory.

 

You cannot control the snowball effect of putting yourself up for public consumption. Just as I cannot control the reactions and responses I get when I choose to post something I know may be controversial. Right now there are undoubtedly people out there saying, “That phage is a real asshole.” I may not have my picture and phone number available, but ‘phage’ is just as real a name as ‘Rick Munroe’ and I am emotionally invested in it. However, I accept the fact that I cannot control how others react or what they might say.

Like it or not, the quality and quantity of your business (or Tony’s) is not my concern. As far as I know, this message center is not here to ensure you a good business. This particular forum is labeled, “An area to discuss Escorts.”

 

I have no reason to doubt FFF. He seems to have the cognitive skills necessary to identify a face in the crowd, and what possible reason could he have for singling out Tony to fabricate a story about? If I were in the market to hire someone who is obviously marketing himself as a masculine top, I would be very interested in knowing if he was going to swish out on me. (You can call that internalized homophobia all you want, but I don’t like it and I WON’T pay for it.)

I think Rick's point is good, too, but let's not raise it to the level of Scripture. After all, he posts it next to a picture of his ass!:-)

More escorts should come to this realization. If they are able to increase their business through their adroit use of this board - good for them. But as you so rightly point out - it isn't the primary purpose of the board.

Good on you - I agree with what you are saying. There are too many gays who go around looking for things to yell HOMOPHOBIC about. Not all that different from the Blacks who feel all whites are their enemy. And lest we forget, remember when we had the pleasure of listening to Ethan accuse everyone of being anti-semetic if they even obliquly referred to the word Jew?

 

I think it is these "over achievers" who have the real problem!

>More escorts should come to this realization.

 

"More escorts"?? As it is, only a handful of us post here. There are thousands of escorts worldwide who can have access to this message board. The majority know that, because of negative people like you, posting here can actually do more harm than good. Your comment is pointless. Many members feel we need to hear more from the escorts' point of view, not less.

>After all, he posts it next to a picture of his ass!

 

Lucky, some people think my ass is holy. It sure gets worshipped often enough.

[Rick Munroe]

>this dreary forum

 

Les, if it's so dreary around here, what keeps you coming back everyday?

As used in the context above, I think "holy" becomes a plural use of the word hole. I always thought you had more to offer than the average escort, but an ass full of holes? Oh my!

 

Decisions, decisions!

You have a point there!

Isn't lisping Castillian?

 

>The last time I saw Tony was a few years ago (and I saw him

>a few times during that period, loving that big tool of his)

>and he had the lisp, but I thought of it as one of those

>lisps that certain Spanish speakers seem to have.

>Especially those from Barthalona.

>

I always thought that lisping was a Castillian (i.e. Madrid and environs) thing. My sense has been that people from the Catalan (i.e. Barcelona and environs) area lisp less frequently, in order to differentiate themselves from Castillians. After all there's no love lost between Catalunians and Catillians...

I remember hearing this girl lisping like crazy on the Barcelona metro, and she really stood out. I said to my friend "I bet that girl's from Castille!"

[Guest Les]

Of course I meant 'the deli' instead of forum...

and as to it's dreariness that's up to you who participate in it.

 

I don't...unless the fabulous Mr. Foom has a "deconstruct".

[Rod Hagen]

>Interesting. He doesn't cut the escorts any 'slack'. Why

>don't you tell him to cut Tony/Miami some slack?

 

Fuck you Donnie you slag. This Tired, Old, and used escort enjoys reading FFF's digs, even when directed at me. You on the other hand, well I'm just waiting, anxiously, for the day you'll choke to death on your own vomit. (soon?)

[+ Lucky]

"I'm just waiting, anxiously, for the day you'll choke to death on your own vomit. (soon?)"

Well, at least now we know how Rod spends his time!

[Rod Hagen]

>Well, at least now we know how Rod spends his time!

 

That's 1/2 the day. The other 1/2 I spend planning all sorts of ways I can overreact to criticism! I think I'm getting quite good at that.

[Guest Fin Fang Foom]

>well I'm just waiting, anxiously, for the

Careful Rod, Rick "I'm A Dumb Whore" Munroe will accuse you of gay bashing and others will say you are so filled with self-hatred that you're taking it out on others.

 

And we can't have that, now can we!?!

 

Wearily yours,

At the risk of getting in the middle of the wind tunnel here, I hired Tony six or eight months ago when in NY based on a projected personna on his various sites and a phone conversation. While not a bottom, I just thought he was a stud that I would enjoy playing with (I'm masculine, in shape and very well hung myself). Turns out he is most definitely not a stud. Nuff said.

[Rod Hagen]

>and others will say you are so filled with

>self-hatred that you're taking it out on others.

 

Well if people enjoy stating something so obvious, why not I suppose.

[+ Lucky]

I need to come to Rod's defense here. He does NOT hate himself!
