Members TownsendPLocke Posted January 28, 2007 Members Share Posted January 28, 2007 I am trying to set up some meetings with"alternative"and kink friendly guys in San Francisco for next weekend. I am using Craigs list pretty mush exclusively for this. Is there a danger of being arrested/prosocuted for solicitation/lewd behavior by doing so?What precautions does one take to avoid this? All of this really makes me miss the glory days of Polk Street! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BostonGuy Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Yes, there are definitely dangers. You need to be careful. This article from the SF Chronicle from last July points out the dangers of theft and/or violence: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?...2.DTL&type=tech This one talks about the potential for fraud on CL: http://www.fraudguides.com/internet-craigslist-scams.asp This one points out the danger of sexual pranks -- including having your info and/or pic posted on the Internet: http://waxy.org/archive/2006/09/08/sex_bait.shtml And here are some links that illustrate that police are using CL to crack down on prostitution: http://www.komotv.com/news/4549271.html http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16599035/ http://www.fox11az.com/news/topstories/sto...t.3d01da3d.html Please be careful.

Guest StuCotts Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Never having contacted anybody through CL I can't speak from first-hand experience. But I've heard enough stories about encounters via CL that worked out dreadfully to steer me away. I'm probably part of a small minority.

Guest RR Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I too have no first hand knowledge, but hear that it can be dangerous and possibly a sting. Over no money until after services are provided. Thus, it is not assumed you are exchanging for sex. Russianrob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsf Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Not so much a problem with getting arrested, but a problem with finding what you really want. There are a lot of straight boys posting and boys new to escorting. They will promise you the world, but rarely deliver. Just make sure you really get your point across as to what you want and expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members seaboy4hire Posted January 29, 2007 Members Share Posted January 29, 2007 TP whether using CL or any other site it is always best to be on your toes and think with the right head. I think that if the roles were reversed I would use one of the review sites for the better results. Have fun in SF and be sure to let us know how things went.

Guest Funseeker22 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 You might be looking for a little more aggressive action but I had the best experience connecting with a CL guy in Mexico City this last weekend. He responded to my posting as a visitor who was looking to try some places I had heard about and wanted to try. Said he had never been to these places either but I suspected working boy hustle. This turned out to be nothing of the kind. He was a very nice looking 35 yr old , slim business man with car who wanted to show me around and go out later. Took me to a great local restuarant and the places I wanted to go and then we finished up in my hotel room (not easy to get into hotel rooms in this City but he looked and dressed the part). Well enuff said but he was a complete stranger who has since become a friend. with a modestly described uncut 10x6 and completely versatile. :9 :9 Viva Craigslist !

Any chance bringing him across the border and up to Seattle? I have to say I love me a challenge! }( Hugs, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relationship wise yes committed and some would say should be committed in the other sense too. I'm not looking for another bf just a play toy }( Hugs, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
