Whatever the reason, it seems that hooking is indeed recession proof. Rentboy.com founder Jeffrey Davids says that more boys are advertising these days — and more clients are paying.
London Boy Pete (pictured) won Best Overall Escort at last year’s Escort Awards (‘The Hookies‘). Before he began to prod strange men’s anal linings for money, Pete was a financial advisor in a bank. He prefers being a rent boy. “I make so much more money and get to have horny sex with lots of guys.” Other perks include travel, free time during the day and good business stretches, like the time he made $7,500 in 3 days.
Another hooker, Dave from Sydney, specializes in watersports, fisting and leather. The potential to catch STDs are the only downside to his job, but he gets around that problem by, um, “gargling with Listerine,” making sure to “wash before and after, and keeping his “fingernails cut very short.” Wait — is that the reason we’re always getting these weird lesions? Because we’re too lazy to trim our nails? Thanks for the tip, Dave!
