A leading U.S. anti-gay campaigner has been photographed returning from a European holiday with a male prostitute.Professor George Rekers, a Baptist minister who believes homosexuality is a sin that can be cured, hired a 20-year-old Puerto Rican as his travelling companion from a website called Rentboy.com.
The 61-year-old father-of-three took the escort, who is known on the gay networking site as 'Geo', on a ten-day trip to London and Madrid.
The pair were photographed emerging from Miami International Airport last month with Professor Rekers pushing their luggage in a trolley. But when confronted with the photo by a journalist from the Miami New Times this week, Professor Rekers explained he hired Geo to help him carry his suitcases following a stint in hospital.
'I had surgery, I can’t lift luggage,' he said. 'That’s why I hired him.'
A statement released on his behalf added: 'Professor Reker's family, local friends, and even another university professor colleague have offered to accompany him on trips to lift luggage.
'He was not involved in any illegal or sexual behaviour with his travel assistant.'
Geo's Rentboy.com profile listed stripping among his interests. He described himself as 'sensual', 'masculine' and 'up for anything'. 'I will do anything you say as long as you ask,' he said.
