I know I shouldn't ask but I will anyway! What is a "rent boy" and how do his duties differ from those of a "toyboy".
The difference lies in the clients; male for a rent boy, and elder female for a toyboy.

The term 'rent boy' comes from the Victorian slang word 'rent', meaning to blackmail. Perhaps your boyfriend could revise this time-hallowed practice. He could threaten to spill the beans if they don't take out expensive private lessons with you. At least you'd avoid sexual harassment.

And of course if you do experience sexual harassment from your students, then you could divert the problem by getting him to dress up as a lady boy.

In fact your fianc� is beginning to appear pretty useful. Can he cook and do the cleaning as well?

Dedicated to the astounding genius of the TEFL community who have managed to pick up some deadbeat from some far-flung septic turd of a country.

Now they ask for our help in finding a job for this degenerate with the IQ of a starfish and the employability of a retarded baboon.

Dear Stephen,
Here's my problem - "boytoy" (or "toyboy") has such a euphonious quality to it.
But what the heck rhymes with "geezer?"
Suggestions welcome.
Regards,
John
P.S. I've already copyrighted "geezer please her/pleaser", but the ambiguity worries me. Potential clients might think I specialize in servicing only ladies of, shall we say, more mature years.

I don't find your newly-coined term ambiguous - it appears to say that the pleaser is a geezer, not the pleasee. (And according to my dictionary, a "geezer"is a "*beep*, odd, or eccentric person - used esp. of elderly men"). As a lady of "more mature years", I am happy to say that I won't need to look up "geazer please her" in the Situations Wanted section of the classifieds for a long time!

Note: I can't believe that the innocent adjective "qu--r" was beeped by the censor!

Dear SueH,

Well, if only the selective quoting were a reflection of realty, my problem would be solved. I could put "Bi-Guy" on the cards.

John

Well, I had to go back to the OP to see what the thread was about and noticed that the OP hasn't re-posted and we still don't know the nationalities involved, which might have an impact on responses.

Still, I thought my example of selective quoting was a serious language point.Smile

Hello Pinkfrost,

Have you thought of China? They do not seem to be so fussy about qualifications, although schools may require of him a TEFL certificate. I believe that he should do the CELTA or Trinity CerTESOL before travelling anywhere to teach ESOL; that would make things a wee simpler for him.

Kind regards,
Bruce
