America’s First Legal Male Prostitute Will Not Have Sex With Other Dudes. For Any Price

Markus, a stage name, this month becomes America’s first legal male prostitute, thanks to Nevada updating its hooker law to let the dudes take part. But he asks, kindly, that you not call him a prostitute; gigolo will do just fine. The former LA-via-Alabama porn star is taking up at the Shady Lady Ranch, north of Las Vegas, and is offering his services for just $200 for 40 minutes. That’s not a whole lot, given what the ads on Craigslist tell us about male services. But sorry, fellas, you won’t be able to experience for the joy of Markus: he’s not going gay-for-pay.

“I don’t discriminate based on race, color, creed, ethnicity, or skin tone. Notice I left gender out. That’s for a reason,” he tells Details. Yep, he’s only there for the ladies.

I think gay people are very put-together. I think they’re very classy, very well-organized people. They have great personalities. I have nothing against them, but that’s not me. And as the first male that’s entering this field legally in the entire United States, I’d like to assert my rights and say that I can sit here and have a decent conversation, but I draw the line at that. In the adult industry they said, “Well you’re not going to make enough money. The equation’s already set—you have to go gay for pay if you want to make the big bucks.” So, that’s prostitution, in my opinion. That’s disrespect to the artist. My sphincter isn’t for sale. But what is for sale is companionship—total appreciation for whoever walks through that door. I’m not saying I’m special. I’m not saying that I’m better than anyone, but I’m definitely unique. And I think it’s a good thing.

So if we just want to cuddle and hold hands, would that be okay?

He doesn’t discriminate on skin tone? I’m calling mom with the good news right now.

Meanwhile, would anybody else rather see Pat Robertson live than those two Saint Lucia idiots who popping up on every Queerty page?

Frankly, he looks like a doofus. And who needs him? Have you seen even our lower priced hustlers? This guy would be lucky to make twenty bucks on a Saturday night in the gay scene. And most of them would do their job with some enthusiasm. LOL

He seems like a decent enough guy, but he’s going to have a lot of competition from other straight guys once this gets out. Wonder what kind of limit Nevada set on licenses?

Good. Gay-for-pay heterosexuals are losers. I don’t want any heterosexual. Only a gay man will kiss another man with absolute passion. For me, men kissing is the highest form of sexiness. Pathetic gay men who believe they are inferior to heterosexuals no matter how inadequate and desperate gay-for-pay heterosexuals are are the ones that perpetuate self hatred and idiocy in the gay community. These are the gay men that say when a person makes an anti-gay remark that that person must by gay because they bought every lie haterosexuals have told them that they believe something that is counter to every life experience they had. Practically all anti-gay bigots are heterosexuals and the rest are pretending to be heterosexual. Anti-gay bigotry is born out of heterosexuality. All the closeted gay people that made anti-gay comments did so pretending to be heterosexual because that is a keystone of heterosexuality and they know that since they were surrounded by heterosexuals from day one. Anyway we don’t need another heterosexual oppressor.

I’m with Todd on this one. I saw this on Tyra and was shocked that the house take 1/2 of the 200. fee, so he gets 100. The owner and the female Prostitute’s said “the tips more than make up for it”. Workers also added that they don’t keep track of the fee because that covers the taxes, and the customers are informed of this. So he’ll make 500. to 2,000. or more in tips!!! I would say most of his clients are very wealthy mature lady’s with reputations to uphold, rich widows on the down low! Not the bar going type! He passed the driving test with flying colors to land this gig! If he can live with being a payed whore, he just landed a dream job!!!!

I have a hard time believing women use prostitutes in a way that this type of prostitution can be profitable for the men involved. Most female prostitutes service men, and so do most male prostitutes.

For straight men, a pussy is a powerful thing, and women don’t usually have to pay for cock. I have overweight and not-so-attractive female friends who get cat calls and whistles when they walk down the street. They don’t have to pay for it.

Wow. He used an awful lot of words to basically say he’s heterosexual and is only interested in female clients.

However, I have seen another photo of him, shirtless, on another web site, in which he looks quite muscular and better looking than the one posted here, so he probably will succeed in his chosen career, provided he’s not a total flake.

Do you guys really think you should be calling anyone names? Slut, Whore…those words are not nice. People in the adult entertainment industry are people too. Just like soldiers are hired to kill people. Both jobs seem taboo according to religious doctrine, however why is it that the killer gets the medal and the other person gets called derogatory names. When that action is more natural than killing.

There’s not many smart people in the world, but I’m glad I can call myself one of them.

The guy is average looking at best and saying things like “My sphincter isn’t for sale” just makes him look like s stupid douchebag.

I don’t wanna hand out judgement words like “slut” or “whore.” But Douchebag… yeah, that kinda fits.

I promise to go back to Mormon Church and all the gays will be in trouble. I want the support of the government and the White House to eliminate those gays who are prostitutes and give them program for sexual addiction to help them remove their sexual addiction. I also need the government their support and the white House to take away gays rights and the gay marriage. I want them to be punished to learn a lesson. Because they have betrayed me.
