I completely missed the notice they posted at ATKOL on 9/9. I only check that board maybe once a month these days. I'm amazed that no one there knew for almost a month. David posted his industry announcements there for many many years. I had many interesting conversations with him long ago. He was a huckster, that's for sure. And he got a lot of guff for it there. But that was his job, to promote those porn boys to the fullest. And he did it it with gusto. |

Somewhat fitting in light of the recent Rentboy shut-down, Forest harkened back to a different era. A flamboyant Hawaiian-shirt-clad showman, he was endlessly promoting his various escort “connection services” until the end. […] According to Forest, it was in the summer of 1981 that he made his first “adult connection”, connecting porn stars Leo Ford, Lance, John King, and Jamie Wingo for “private meetings” with johns. Around this time, he began to work with Falcon Studios founder Chuck Holmes. Soon, Forest began his first escorting service, first known as “Brad’s Buddies”, booking porn stars like Kip Knoll, Jon Davenport, and others. After spending two years in prison for pandering in 1996-1998, he returned, to booking porn stars for live appearances, movies, and escorting, this time around calling his service “Forest Meetings”, which later became “The Premiere Artists”. |

A while back when we were at the height of our career in LA we had a VISA/MC merchants account which we allowed David to process transactias through, for a fee to ourself of course. Also, David would sometimes send us out to 'visit' generou$ gentlemen. She was a nasty queen though as she always reminded us that we were not as young and beautiful as some of her other 'workers'. (And looking the way she did!) Edited by Erna, Sep 15 2015, 01:10 PM.

I see that David's last edit to his column at ATKOL was done in Dec. of 2014. His health must have taken a nose dive shortly after that because he was religious about keeping that column current through thick or thin. The treatment he received at ATKOL by some of the more assholish posters there was one reason I gave that board up. That was when I finally figured out how small minded, jealous, two-face, and unforgiving some gay men can be toward other homos. The very people who would regularly comment on all the gay porn threads about how much they liked this or that video and claimed to have no problem with porn stars escorting on the side would then beat the hell out of David Forest for promoting those same porn stars escort activities. Of course they were the very same posters who ran off all the porn stars who used to post regularly on that board. They tore into Paul Barresi with a vengeance, as well as Zak Spears. The very second a porn star would start posting that small band of demons would start in on him doing everything in their power to make him feel like a pestilence on society. Another board that went from having more active posters than you could count to no more than 10, tops. All because of a small group of devils. Edited by Tybee, Sep 15 2015, 01:36 PM.

Did you ever work with other male prostitutes or men who did porn who also prostituted themselves for cash? |

David once stupidly let someone videotape him buck naked in all his portliness on the floor of a patio being peed upon by a group of his porn boys and that video got out somehow and was posted at ATKOL. I was disgusted by it and thought he was a fool for letting someone videotape it, but I felt sorry for him to have to suffer through the onslaught by the ATKOL posters. But, the ol' boy just let it all slide off like so much water (or pee) off a duck's back. MPC I'm sorry David was such a dick to you. I didn't realize he could be that sort, especially to someone who was making him some money. Edited by Tybee, Sep 15 2015, 01:55 PM.

Just finished that "catfishing the catfish" article. Looks like David really went over to the darkside after the bottom fell out of the porn business and most all of the big names who sold their bodies on the side pretty much vanished from sight. I remember back in the glory days he apparently didn't have many problems providing the guys he claimed to represent. Of course as only David Forest could, having no stock on the shelves didn't stop him from hawking his goods.

I wonder how many rich people booked male whores from him that never showed up for their appointments? I assume he then told the unlucky person he had scammed that he did not give refunds. |

These were not credit card transactions, so the bank would not "reverse" the charge. The clients apparently wired the first half. Then, were expected to pay cash when the whore showed up. If you complained to the bank that you intentionally wired money to someone who did not follow the terms of your contract with him, the bank would tell you, "Call a lawyer" not "Oh, sure, let us give BOTH of you the money and then you sort it out." I also expect that with half already in hand, Forest would count on the angry client cutting his losses and making a deal with the imposter. Thereby, the hooker would absorb the cost of the con, as I bet their deal was Forest kept the first half and the hooker go whatever he could get of the second. Con men like Forest also rely on the fact that the people he swindled would be reluctant to tell anyone, especially the police, that they hired a male whore (which is illegal and, to some, very shameful.) |

I just find it amazing that there would be that many guys who could afford his prices who were dumb enough to fall for this ridiculous routine. There are just so many things from Forest's first email on that should make anyone with even moderate intelligence think "this sounds very fishy". It just goes to show how stupid some men can be when it comes to getting their rocks off. |

Here is the reason most people do not wish to be a prostitute: Your parents would be mortified. Your old friends would distance themselves from you. You would have to touch ugly people. It is a job you can't do for very long. You do it while you could be building a career at something interesting and/or more lucrative long term. Many people wind up getting involved with substance abuse. When you are too old to be a hooker, you have no skills for any other job. (Yes, there are exceptions, but the "I'm just doing this to get through dental school" is 99% fantasy for the clients.) |

Also, it dehumanizes people, and a lot of prostitutes get beat up, robbed, raped, or even killed. |

We forgot about something very nice that David Forest did for us and we shall share it now. In 1985 we received a call from a rather famous Beverly Hills hair colorist at about 2am. Never turning down work we quoted her $200, which would be about $1000 in today's dollars. We arrived and found her horny and rather hot and also there was another worker there who had just finished! A very famous one,, we shall not reveal. Well, after the sessia the queen gave us a check, over our objectias demaning cash. The check bounced and we were livid. We had no idea how to get the queen to pay up. We happened to be chatting with DF later that week and she said: Oh he works at such and such salon on Rodeo Drive in BH. We marched ourself into the salon and when the queen saw us she turned 5 shades of white, ran up to us and said she would have the cash in 30 minutes. We returned in 30 minutes and received our money. It always pays to know where people work! |

come to think of it, the bad check was from our second visit with the queen, she paid cash the first time. She complained the first time but she still called us for a repeat! We forgot her name but she is probably long dead from drugs, etc.
