Grinder and Jack'd as escort venues

[Fyton]

I get several unsolicited messages at night from guys wildly too young to be truly interested. They never ask any questions; they are inept at conversing; they answer my questions with short statements that don't invite further conversation, until, eventually, they ask if I'm generous. That's in Austin.

Last week, however, I was in Atlanta. There the guys, every one of them black (in case that matters), came to the point very quickly and offered stunningly enticing images. I was exceedingly suspicious and cautious, but met one. He was exactly as advertised, sweet as hell, almost naive and pedestrian (or is all that covered by 22). Delivered, appeared to enjoy it, and left when time to.

Anyone have any insights into this?

The new way to meet guys into gen arrangements

[Maximus69]

I tried escorting on grindr for a short while, putting something along the lines as Mr. Ca$anova as the title. When I did that I got many harassing messages from guys my age and or guys pretending to want to hire me and be a no-show lol. Then I dropped the name Mr. Ca$anova to be more subtle and whenever an older gentlemen messaged me first... thats when I would ask if their generous, some were cool with it and I got hired by then and others cursed me out and blocked me lol. Anyhoo it didnt last long me escorting on grindr, its a public platform so your going to get lots of guys who are going to play games with you. Plus I've been on grindr for years as just a regular user so too many people know me already, so nah not for me, I prefer to advertises in places that only have other escorts.

As a client, in NYC, I find Grindr quite useful for hiring. Most escorts using Grindr are not "advertising" there. They could very well be pursuing their own personal interests. If a guy uses a picture I recognize from an RM profile, I make it clear immediately that's why I'm sending him a message. In my experience, they respond quite positively to that sort of contact. I like "meeting" through Grindr because of the opportunity to chat, exchange pics, make both of our interests and expectations clear, etc quickly and easily.

[Fyton]

I call adult! "Rocksinurhed" is an adult!

[MikeyGMin]

I certainly do not have this "issue" in Austin. Maybe because I live in the suburbs. It's just the same guys all the time. I'm going to have to drive to the domain or somewhere downtown and hang out for a while.

Have had the same experience. Some are okay with it and others freak out so I've stopped trying on Grindr. (I will say here in Europe I've gotten less aggressive negative reactions though so thats sweet.) It's way better when it's on a site that you definitely know what's going on.

 

I would have to say that the quality of client just isn't the same on those apps as it is on RM or this forum as well so I'm a fan of websites particularly pertaining to escorting or this forum

[CatnameFelix]

There are so many issues that come with advertising on a hookup app. I'm sorry that you guys received all that hostility, that's completely uncalled for.

 

At the same point, I really I hope that if you do use a hookup app to find clients that you don't keep your profiles too vague. Cause as someone who only uses hookup app to hookup and escorting apps to hire, there is nothing more annoying than having what you think is someone being interested in you ask, "are you generous." I not that old, I workout and kept in good shape, and my profile does at all scream out "SUGAR DADDY." There's no bigger hit to your ego than that.

 

I also wonder what it's like for escorts that use those apps to just hookup. I know I've had a lot of guys hit on me, to find out later they are escorts. I would never turn a guy down because of that. But I would never ever hit on a guy I knew was an escort, for fear the conversation would lead to asking how much money I have.

I also advertised i think on the app scruffed? I think that was the name, its an app where guys want bears. I got less guys harassing me there and met a couple clients that way too. But yeah I prefer to be anonymous, you know a lady in the streets but a freak in the sheets

[rickp]

Grinder and scruff are fantastic venues for meeting up with clients. I use them all the time, and in midtown Manhattan they work quite nicely.

[CCMaryland]

I feel odd about contacting an escort on Grindr or Scruff if their profile does not mention anything about their work. I might if their profile picture is identical to the picture on their ad though. I kind of feel like they are on their own time there. If I found them on Facebook, I definitely would not contact them there if they were under their real identity. I don't want to be the creepy stalker. I'll boil my bunnies in private.

I'm glad you tried it and I'm glad you're no longer wasting time on it.

 

I think the only reason why some "so-called" gentlemen try to hire out of Grindr is paying less... some might think they're helping a "starving student" or whatever they tell themselves about it but the main reason is to pay less.

 

I know someone who called himself so many times "Generou$", after getting caught he just started offering money to guys and he finally got his device blocked out of the app. Yes, they can do that. A private company is more effective than the NSA. I wonder if Mr. Sessions would be interested in cracking down the business this way and going after guys "soliciting" on Grindr.

 

Some young men might "not have the stomach" to escort, I'd rather hiring professionals who know what they're up to.

[rickp]

Thanks. So, the client will initiate that conversation and I'll give him my phone number.

I have been approached by a some guys on Grindr telling me that they are looking for a sugar daddy. Just not interested in opening up my checkbook on a longterm basis with people. They'll get cut off in a heartbeat if I get any hint of fishing for funds.

[LookingAround]

I'm glad it works for you.

 

Who breaks the ice about asking for $, the unsuspected client thinking he finally found someone interested in having sex with an older man or the escort?

 

How does the conversation go in an app that is supposed to be about free sex?

 

Me: hey how r u

Them: good. I'm an escort

Me: Cool. (Then continue convo)

[marylander1940]

Me: hey how r u

Them: good. I'm an escort

Me: Cool. (Then continue convo)

 

Me: bye, here folks fuck for free why should I pay.

 

one more thing: I didn't ask you.

[CatnameFelix]

Me: bye, here folks fuck for free why should I pay.

Exactly, especially when the conversation starts:

 

Him: hey sexy.

 

Me: hey there.

 

Him: I'm an escort.

GRINDR is a mess, my problem is too much fucking. I have over 1000+ unread messages from guys who want to hookup. I feel bad that I don't hookup unless its a client

All the more reason you should be as up front as possible. The whole point of the app is to find hookups and relationships. A carpenter can't complain about the responses they get to their ads, when they only advertise on Grubhub.

[rickp]

There are no hard feelings on grinder for me; plenty of available options, so everyone should be able to find exactly what they're looking for.

relationships on grindr... never heard of them

but yes its about hookups, I however used grindr when Im bored to just chat and look at the cute guys and sexy pics, and my inner romantic side is hoping there will be a nice sweet guy who wants to know me for me and take me out on a date and get lost in the city and have an adventure... or at least find a guy who'll buy me some pizza

[down_to_business]

I would not be happy if I spent time and effort trying to put myself out there and meet somebody on a social app with no mention on my part about escorting only for them to engage me and then after ensnaring me, then bring up escorting or a generous/sugar daddy component to the meeting.

You have GOT to have some you time too though. It's like.. idk recharging it's weird to explain. Glad you're staying busy though

[LookingAround]

lol yinz sound

Me: bye, here folks fuck for free why should I pay.

s like a real winner. Bet you get a lot of guys for free so makes sense you wouldn't want a gen arrangement.

Im scared if I hookup with a random guy from grindr I'm going to miss a call/text from a client wanting to meet. I want to save my horniness for my clients I always get guys wanting to meet at all random hours of the day lol, so I have to save up my load for those whom are more important
