The Worst Thing About Prostitute-Loving George Alan Rekers? He’s Cheap

Sure, the preaching against homosexuality is pretty bad. And getting paid $87k to testify against gays’ right to adopt in Florida is reprehensible. But the worst character trait about George Alan Rekers’? He was a cheap john.

Normally accustomed to earning $300-500 a day for sex, escort Jo-Vanni Roman says Rekers was paying him merely 75 bucks a day during their 10-day Spain and Britain excursion. And that was for “complicated caressing” and luggage carrying. We know Craiglist “massage therapists” who earn twice that for an in-call!

“I was just trying to get through school,” he tells the Miami Herald. “I think I’m going to have drop my classes.” Oh Jo-Vanni, don’t do that. Staying in school is just about the smartest thing you can do right now. That, and write a book.

What do you think of this post?

Ah he’s young. Real pro’s insist on their rate…you are paying for their time no matter where you take them.

I still love the fact that the money most likely came from people donating to him to fight against gay rights. So you hear that all you bigots!!! Your anti-gay dollars went to pay for man on man hand-jobs.

i’ve had a few friends in the ‘escort’ biz. The tales of loose pocketed men are mostly fairy tales.

Most john’s (from what i’ve heard) are very cheap, want to pay a small fee for an entire night and expect much more than a simple john/hustler relationship. It doesn’t matter how much money they have, they’re very stingy.

It almost seems they’re full of contempt that they have to pay for it and would rather believe that the hustler is there out of love and he just happens to need some cash to get him through.

Toxic relationship on both sides and it doesn’t need to be. The ‘deal’ should and could be a simple business transaction, with both sides knowing what the deal is upfront.

Seems Jo-vanni got off easy (pun intended) if all he had to do was caress the little right-wing troll.

Myself and I am sure most every other poster here on Queerty St. are just silly with glee as this delicious drama unfolds, just imagining the torture that scumbag Reeks is now experiencing after inflicting pain on the Gays for decades…..If ya click the link and read the story, this lift is an absolute abuse of taxpayer funds:

The state of Florida recently paid him about $60,000 to be an expert witness against gay adoption in the case of Frank Gill, a gay foster parent seeking to adopt two young brothers. Florida is the only state that bans all gay people from adopting.

In November 2008, Miami-Dade Judge Cindy Lederman awarded custody of the two boys to Gill. In her final judgment, Lederman wrote:

“Dr. Rekers’ testimony was far from a neutral and unbiased recitation of the relevant scientific evidence. Dr. Rekers’ beliefs are motivated by his strong ideological and theological convictions that are not consistent with the science. Based on his testimony and demeanor at trial, the court can not consider his testimony to be credible nor worthy of forming the basis of public policy.”

The Florida Attorney General’s Office has appealed Lederman’s ruling, and a decision is expected anytime.

Hopefully some legislator with a sense of decency will open an investigation into the Attorney General’s office and determine just exactaly how it came to be that this vile scumbag was paid 60k ub taxpayer dollars to spew his false vile dogam in a court of law. How great would it be if this drama led to the downfall of at least one of the hatefilled anti-Gay officials in Florida or at the very least prevented a Gay from losing their kids?

@Qjersey: As much as I agree with you, that a service is a service regardless of where it’s performed, I have to side with @e in saying that the kid did get an expense-paid trip to Europe out of the deal.

I’m sure that doesn’t qualify Rekers as cheap… and I’m not sure if that really qualifies “Lucien” as a compromiser.

(But what I’m MOST interested in, is when & how the press’s “informant” – “Lucien?” – find out who Rekers was and pass it on to that lone photographer at the airport!!)

Kudos to Mr. Roman for hanging this troll out to dry. Hopefully Mr. Roman’s newfound notoriety will help him finance the rest of his education. Maybe Ellen can have him on and give him a few thousand reasons to be a full-time student.

Idiot kid. A real pro would get his $1500-2500/day, get taken all around the world and come home with thousands in clothing, etc. Sure, this John may have been cheap, but this stupid kid agreed to it. Dope.
