Is there a peak season for finding hot escorts?

[Guest thedolphinsofaugust]

I have not been impressed with what's on Rentboy or Menforrent and I've been looking since April. Do the amount of hot escorts available increase through the summer? Or is the cooler weather actually the best time to find one? I'm looking in NYC.

 

also, just an additional question: Are Rentboy and Menforrentnow the only reputable sites? There are some others but they don't look like they've been updated since the 90s.

[gcursor]

my answer is: yes

[johnfran]

Yes--- when you're horny and they're broke! Perfect combo----

Hi dolphin. Please do not think I am being too critical with this question, but doesn't NYC have the greatest amount of available escorts out of any city in the U.S.? Why have you not been able to find anyone that seems like they may be up to your standards?

 

Please realize, as I think that you do, that hiring an escort is not the same as going out on a date with someone. It is a business transaction, pure and simple.

You are not investing your whole life with this person, just some money and an hour.Yes, it is your money, and you want the biggest bang for your buck, so to speak, but you have been looking since April.

 

I am sorry if I sound like a douche, man.

I have to say I had the same thoughts as cynicalflannel -- If you're in NEW YORK CITY and you've been looking since APRIL, and you've found NO ONE to even hire for an hour ... it ain't gonna happen. Season ain't the reason you're not making a hire, buddy. Down deep, you don't want to make one yet. And there's nothing wrong with that.

 

When you're ready to pull the trigger, you're in the best spot in the U.S.

Oh how I envy the talent pool in New York. Come to Los Angeles and you'll learn what truly limited means.

Your question is actually valid. I've been looking through rentboy for a while and the postings do change. I find a general increase if there's something going on in town -- like the Hookies Award, Pride Weekend, Hustlaball, etc. Conversely, like tourists, there's a general decrease in listings after the Christmas Holiday.

Decatur said it all! I'm thinking you should try another Hobby! IMHO as always.

[gcursor]

guys...come on..show a little love to the guy. maybe we need to know a little more about what he's looking for and a little bit of what he finds attractive so we can make a few recommendations. couldn't hurt, right?

Although I do not live in the Los Angeles area but the San Francisco Bay area-- I am in complete agreement with you. The available talent is highly limited as contrasted to what's in "The Big Apple," New York City. I have often thought about why this city has all of the hottest men who escort! If I had the "coins," I'd definitely be making trips there in order to meet and enjoy these "succulent treats!"

 

As another writer wrote to the man who originated the thread: It is not the lack of men in NYC who escort--perhaps it is your not being ready "to take the plunge" and enjoy!!!!!

[Gar1eth]

On one hand I agree with the people who say that possibly Dolphin isn't ready to hire-- on the other hand-- depending on what you are looking for-- even if it's very vanilla-- depending on your criteria- the list may get very slim indeed. For example-- in my case-- say you are going to discard every escort without a clear face picture (Manhattan seems to have a lot of guys who don't show their faces in their ads); next if you are looking for muscular guys-- and I mean guys who are actually muscular -- not guys who list 'muscular ' as a characteristic but really aren't; then go through and select the ones that say bottom or versatile (Manhattan seems to be a breeding ground for escorts who only top or clients who only bottom); then while it's subjective go through these guys for the ones you think are really handsome-- then possibly you look at the ad and try and decide if the escort sounds reasonable, has reviews-- maybe you exclude someone who has just started advertising-- maybe discard an escort with bad or mediocre reviews. Once you carry out this screening process, as I have-- the number of possible available guys left out off the original 350 or so escorts that usually advertise in Manhattan is not as large a number as you would think.

What you said also makes sense ... but I think it's highly uniikely Dolphin is going to improve his chances in another American city. In Phoenix or Seattle or Atlanta or Little Rock, his options are just going to dwindle even more.

[mansniffing]

I have a fetish that I primarily concentrate on though I am curious as to what is "called the money shot" and asked two recent escorts about coming. One very diplomatically said: "Next time." and candidly said he had masterbated earlier in the day and unloaded with two clients later that day. I prefer late bookings and that's to be expected. When I asked the second escort whom I booked at $250 the same question, he responded "that costs $400." To me the response was jaded and made me think "à la carte." My response was that we really didn't have time for that since Escort #2 is absolute about exactly one hour. I don't plan to book him again. Escort #1 hasn't been scratched---as yet--because his enthusiasm and creativity are spot on. Question: Isn't the "money shot" assumed when booking? Gar1eth"s posting has prompted me to be a bit more assiduous in the future. Are we to ask if the appointment is "à la carte" and if so what's the cost of each "extra?" (LOL. The last sentence is deliberately facetious.)

I agree with you also. If he can't find anyone he thinks would be compatible in NYC, LA, San Fran, Chicago, or possibly Boston as the places with the largest concentrations of escorts in the USA, then maybe he's not ready to hire. It might be frustrating for him, on the other hand-- not hiring is definitely not the worst thing in the world. His bank account may be a lot happier than mine.

[Guest thedolphinsofaugust]

lol Wow so much talk about Dolphin. At first I didn't even know who Dolphin was until I realized all of you were talking about me.

 

Actually, all of you are right. I'm not so sure if I want to hire someone. If I wind up running for public office one day, wouldn't hiring an escort derail my dreams of world domination?

 

The truth is that I have high standards. I've been exposed to too many good-looking men through the Internet. I also can't stand tattooes and a lot of these men have them. I'm attracted to a more traditional-looking man.

 

but I think you are right. I'm not ready. The only escorts I have contacted never replied, so I'm beginning to wonder if maybe I'm not meant to do this.

[JT Brooklyn]

It's not so much "Seasonal Peaks' you have to deal with it's more a case of Peak Weeks!

 

Like the "Best Week" is usually the one before in many cases the RENT is due! Hence the Name...RENTBOY!

[Guest Rich.]

Hey Dolphin,

 

I wouldn't worry about running for public office, the way it's going, by the time you get there, it'll be a badge-of-honour!

 

IMHO, your first time, even if you end up with the World's Best Escort, he might not live up to your expectations. Also, like dining, you need to acquire a palette. It may be in the future, you'll fancy pizza other times coq-a-vin (me, I prefer a staple diet of butch chickens!) but only experience will give you the ability to decide what's for you.

 

I also appreciate that you're worried about living up to an Escort's expectations, as you mentioned previously, whether you'll have to keep your t-shirt on, etc. This is why I would seriously recommend not judging solely on a guy's visuality, you might be passing up the man who is perfect for you, kind and gentle, just because he has a little ink.

 

I'm not sure if there are any genuine agencies left in New York, but I figure there has to be. There's certainly Premier in Philly. In my experience, having an agency interface between you and an Escort is a massive positive, they'll help you choose a guy that fits the first BFE I think your looking for. You also avoid what can nowadays be a brutal financial conversation before you've even met the man of your dreams, especially as you're having to save up for this. I wouldn't worry about that by the way, in this climate, we're all saving up!

 

If you have questions you're anxious about placing in a public arena for fear of ridicule, take a look around the Board and find Members whose posts you feel in tune with, then PM them. You'll find that most will be flattered to offer you their advice and experience.

 

Yours.

 

Richard

Excellent Brooklyn Guy

 

Reminds me of films I've seen from the Depression Era where roommates would have "rent parties" a week before the rent was due.

[uwsman2]

I live in NYC. Every now and then I scroll through the rentboy.com ads to see what is on offer in my fair city. I am usually impressed by the very wide variety of escorts who are offering their services, and it strikes me that it should be possible to narrow down the list to a handful that would meet just about any set of criteria.

 

That said, Dolphin, I think perhaps you are setting your criteria too narrowly to be realistic. As somebody said above, remember that this is not a blind date in search of a life partner, itis making an appointment with a person who sells sexual services by the hour.

 

Too bad you're not an SM bottom. You could arrange with the escort that you put on a blindfold prior to the session and only remove it if your curiosity gets the better of you! (Actually, a little anecdotage --- many years ago, I made an appointment with a very highly recommended SM top. I made this arrangement with him. I said that to enhance the mystery and excitement, I didn't want to see him until the session was over. We arranged that he would leave his apartment door unlocked when he buzzed me in to the building. When I entered his apartment, he had hidden himself and called out instructions about where to place my clothes, where the blindfold was hanging on a hook, etc. We did an entire hot session that way - everything I had asked for: bondage, flogging, tit-torture (mild), force oral, anal - and when it was all over and we were both panting for breath, I finally removed the blindfold. By then totally turned on and wrung out, it didn't really matter to me what he looked like, whether his hair was long or short, whether he needed a shave, whether his had tattoos... I had experienced him solely through touch and the sound of his voice. And it was totally hot. But I don't recommend this for a first time experience. Something to aspire to, perhaps )

 

Good luck and feel free to PM for advice.

Also, like dining, you need to acquire a palette.

 

Especially if you enjoy the exquisite suppleness of oil along with overtones of turpentine.

RICKY'S RECREATION WORLD ?? ... icky da-da boo-boo. ;-)

 

Kidding aside: Look, life is an adventure.

 

And trade or rough trade is just that.

Wow. That must be real tough having such high standards. I totally get it though dude. I have that exact problem myself. NO one is ever good enough for me. You better believe I make sure they all know it too. God and the nerve of some people thinking they're actually worth my time. You and I only go for the very best for sure. Cream of the crop as they say. Maybe one day we'll meet someone really hot and up to our impossible standards but I highly doubt it:)

[Guest thedolphinsofaugust]

Okay, okay

 

Wow. That must be real tough having such high standards. I totally get it though dude. I have that exact problem myself. NO one is ever good enough for me.

Maybe one day we'll meet someone really hot and up to our impossible standards but I highly doubt it:)

 

lol. I guess that didn't sound so good, huh? It's not that I think I'm better than ANYONE or better looking, which I'm certainly not, but being that I'm not rich and don't have $300 to just throw away. That would really come to $350+ because of the travel expenses. To me, that's a LOT of money and if I am going to spend it on one lousy hour the man damn well better be hot as hell. Am I wrong?!?

Not sure what your talking about. I was being real. Listen I've been called a shallow conceded asshole (and many other names) more times then I can remember. I don't let the haters get to me though. YOU shouldn't either. I just happen to like the best and I'm not afraid of saying it:)
