This, uh, filmmaker is looking for a "large" guy with a sense of humor.

This "sugar daddy" post sounds like a job listing.

"I am quite taken with you and would love to deliver to you ratures of sensual delight."

"I am here and am telling you that I may be convinced to let you come over with your rope."

This sounds like quite a car ride.

Him: "more Williamsburg than Washington Ave." Her: hungover. But interested.
