men4men - craigslist is a "hook up" but instead of "realtime chat" like say "adam4adam" you have to rely on Email v.s IM so the response time is "delayed". ( interpreted: if I were to promote any kind of dating/hookup/escort site I would have to "verify" they work , craigslist unfortunately is very flakey and at times dangerous , it's okay if you want to sell an XBOX otherwise I would not want to get the reputation of misleading the public. )
yes , a hookup site would do bettter with a live chat room.
