Top (sexual role)
Top is a term commonly used in the gay community and on escort directories to describe a person who prefers the penetrating or dominant role during sex.
The term frequently appears in profiles of male escorts and transgender escorts advertising on platforms such as RentMen and other gay escort directories.
Escort profiles often list sexual preferences so that clients understand compatibility before arranging a meeting.
Top Escorts
A top escort usually indicates that the escort prefers the penetrating role during sexual activity.
Some escort profiles may also describe themselves as:
- Versatile top – primarily a top but occasionally flexible
- Power top – someone who strongly prefers the top role
These terms appear frequently on escort directories where clients search for specific preferences.
Escort Listings and Preferences
Many escort websites allow users to filter listings based on sexual preferences such as top, bottom or versatile.
These filters help clients quickly find escorts whose preferences match their expectations.
Profiles often include additional information such as:
- location
- rates
- physical description
- travel schedule
- verification status

Health Considerations
Sexual health is an important topic when meeting new partners.
Protection, regular testing and prevention strategies such as PrEP and PEP are often discussed between escorts and clients in order to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases including HIV/AIDS.
