Christian right leader George Rekers takes vacation with "rent boy"
Edited on Tue May-04-10 12:07 PM by Are_grits_groceries
The pictures on the Rentboy.com profile show a shirtless young man with delicate features, guileless eyes, and sun-kissed, hairless skin. The profile touts his "smooth, sweet, tight ass" and "perfectly built 8 inch cock (uncut)" and explains he is "sensual," "wild," and "up for anything" — as long you ask first. And as long as you pay.

On April 13, the "rent boy" (whom we'll call Lucien) arrived at Miami International Airport on Iberian Airlines Flight 6123, after a ten-day, fully subsidized trip to Europe. He was soon followed out of customs by an old man with an atavistic mustache and a desperate blond comb-over, pushing an overburdened baggage cart.

That man was George Alan Rekers, of North Miami — the callboy's client and, as it happens, one of America's most prominent anti-gay activists. Rekers, a Baptist minister who is a leading scholar for the Christian right, left the terminal with his gay escort, looking a bit discomfited when a picture of the two was snapped with a hot-pink digital camera.

Reached by New Times before a trip to Bermuda, Rekers said he learned Lucien was a prostitute only midway through their vacation. "I had surgery," Rekers said, "and I can't lift luggage. That's why I hired him." (Though medical problems didn't stop him from pushing the tottering baggage cart through MIA.)

Yet Rekers wouldn't deny he met his slender, blond escort at Rentboy.com — which features homepage images of men in bondage and grainy videos of crotch-rubbing twinks — and Lucien confirmed it.
There's more: http://www.miaminewtimes.com/2010-05-06/news/christian-right-leader-george-rekers-takes-vacation-with-rent-boy/

Gawd! I can't even keep up anymore. I can't tell the hypocritical playas without a scorecard.

Edit to add:

1. Consrevatives are the most twisted freaks of all
again again


I wonder why the salacious TV News is silent on all this...
Oh yeah, Obama is a socialist and Clinton got a BJ and lied about it.

We're toast

6. Denial...
...what one cannot accept ~~ particularly about one's self ~~ one often denies.

Men MUST be macho and into women ~~ that is the typical thought pattern and accepted behavior in American society. Therefore, if one is not like this, one must do everything possible to deny the truth. Being an anti-gay activist ~~ that would deny totally to one's self and to the world that one is gay.

JMHO

30. yeah what is up with that?
Edited on Tue May-04-10 03:14 PM by Mojeoux
Is it just that they are so old that they can't imagine tolerance and acceptance?

Is it money? They will lose their jobs?

And why call attention to themselves by being anti-gay blowhards?

If they are on the "down low," why not stay low and STFU?

(ha) at first I thought he was off with a cute actor from the Broadway play "Rent." (duh)

31. If you begin with the assumption that you are good and homosexuality is evil...
Then your urges must be some demon hounding you-- not a part of your own personality. It's a societal evil, nothing to do with you. So you take your crusade out into society.

7. You know...I'm straight as an arrow with LGBT friends whom I don't judge...
and I've never really wanted to have sex with another dude...just don't find the thought of it enticing. Moreover the opposite.

Now all these "Gawd Feering Qweer-Hatin' Kristians"...they all seem to harbor a secret desire to do just that...

Wow.

What the fuck is up with that???

13. You know, I have not thought about Haggard in awhile....wondered what was up with him.
Latest I know of is that his wife claims he is free of homosexual urges. :eyes:

IMO: What bullshit.

17. My problem is and will always be...
...that if one is in an exclusive sexual relationship, the one cheating exposes the unknowing partner to a world of sexual illnesses ~~ some of which, as we know, are deadly ~~ with unprotected sex.

The lying and the infidelity are bad enough ~~ horrible in fact ~~ but unprotected sex like Haggard had with that male prostitute...and then home to the wife and exposing her???

How in the hell to forgive and forget that shit????? I could not get away from an asshole like that fast enough. It would not matter to me WHAT kid of unprotected sex was at issue ~~ the fact that I trusted and was exposed to this would be more than enough to know that I did not need that in my life ~~ not even for one second.

She is indeed living a lie.

19. If she came down with cervical cancer
like a friend of mine w/a cheating husband, she probably wouldn't change her mind. Women like her are so deluded into thinking they are following God's will by staying w/their husband they can't ever see the reality of their situation, or the damage it has done.

You're right--I couldn't get away fast enough, either!

21. How sad for your friend...
...and what gets me is that the innocent person gets the punishment for what the cheater did. And, yet, they most likely will pray to gawd and figure out how it's their fault that the guy cheated.

Sick what some woman will put up with the save a marriage. :puke:

10. To search on RentBoy, here is what is found:
To arrive at Lucien’s site, Rekers must have accepted Rentboy.com’s terms of use, thereby acknowledging he was not offended by graphic sexual material. He then would have been transported to a front page covered with images of naked, tumescent men busily sodomizing each other.

Then Rekers must have performed a search. Did he want a “rentboy,” a “sugar daddy,” or a “masseur”? In what country? And what city? If Rekers searched for a rent boy in Miami, he would have found approximately 80 likely candidates. He must have scrolled down the first page, past the shirtless bears and desperate ex-models, and on to page 2. There, at last, was Lucien.

http://pulse.ncpolicywatch.org/2010/05/04/anti-gay-leader-rents-a-boy-from-rentboy/

Who the hell is Rekers trying to bullshit ~~ other than himself ~~ that he was thought he was getting someone to carry luggage???

GMAFB...:eyes:

34. Recommend -- there are some characterizations here
That I am uncomfortable with.

This is strictly anecdotal -- but I have found few innocent 'wives' in these scenarios.
Few indeed- and some active participants.
After years of marriage - the guilt hast to be spread around a little more.
