Most people would be more comfortable with vaccinations if the medical community gave us honest expectations and said right up front:
It's likely going to make you feel a little sick, and it's supposed to. That means you immune system is working and reacting to it.
Pain, fever, runny nose, etc are all your body saying "there's a pathogen here. We need to activate systems to kill it, and get it out of here."
Giving a false sense of "you'll feel just fine," makes many people believe that any discomfort is a "reaction" to a vaccine. The reality is that symptoms less than the full blow disease are normal.
 

I've found it to be a double edged sword. @purplekow I am by no means accusing you of this, but I think the ideal would be to find a doctor who doesn't assume my sexual orientation is the most likely cause of any complaint. If I present with stomach issues, "giardia" may belong on the possible list of causes, but it's not quite an Occam's razor simply because I am gay. 
I really wish the doctor's online profile told me THEIR sexual orientation. It might give me the best prediction for a doctor who is more "aware" of the possibilities, but not so prejudiced as to assume it was the root cause of every ailment. 

Some of my favorite pieces have both cymbal crashes and triangle tingles. Sometimes one really makes me appreciate the other.
But typically, one directs  me to contemplate if the other truly is preferable.

Let’s be clear: this isn’t just about preferences. This thread crossed a line when it moved from personal experience to publicly mocking trans people and anyone with a micropenis—cis or otherwise. That’s not a sexual boundary. That’s humiliation disguised as honesty.
The original post—in the Deli section—was a simple question about whether anyone had met or had experience with Santos. You didn’t. You just used it as a platform to shame trans men and men with small penises.
You’ve ridiculed anatomy, dismissed empathy as “nonsense,” and reduced people’s bodies to punchlines. And now, predictably, you’re hiding behind the idea that cruelty is protected by “just my opinion.” It’s not. Not when the opinion is, “this group of people’s bodies are gross.” That’s not insight. That’s a broadcasted insult.
Our community already takes enough hits from the outside—getting that kind of cruelty from within is even worse. You don’t know what kind of shame or self-loathing someone might be living with. So the real question is: why feel the need to add to it?
You’ve spent multiple paragraphs explaining, in clinical detail, why a group of people’s bodies don’t deserve dignity or desire. That’s not opinion. It’s obsession. And dressing it up in academic citations doesn’t make it less cruel. It just makes it pathetic. If your manhood depends on belittling someone else’s, it’s flimsier than whatever you’re mocking.
And now, with your latest response, you’ve made your intentions crystal clear. This was never about “just sharing an opinion.” It’s about disgust masquerading as discourse. You’re not offering insight—you’re issuing insults. What you just said wasn’t provocative. It was vile. A calculated attempt to mock and dehumanize, under the coward’s banner of “just being honest.”
You’re a smart man. By all accounts, a very successful one—personally and professionally. This is beneath you.

It’s so hard to get tone across in written word, whether it be a post on a website forum or just a simple text! I often read something that some else has posted and come up with a quick, witty reply. But, after typing it out, almost always delete it because it doesn't sound the same as it does in my head!

I consider myself incredibly pragmatic. So:
1) I am very comfortable with the fact that the digestive system is one long tube, and whatever goes in the top comes out the bottom. 🤷🏻 
2) While I may not want to injest shit, or have it over flowing everywhere, I recognized long ago that if my sexual proclivities included the insides of assholes, at some point, shit will be present. 🤷🏻 
3) I learned long ago that sheets, towels, fingers, hands, and penises, along with many other things, are all washable. 🤷🏻 
4) I couldn't imagine being in a relationship and having to have he conversation, "hey hon, I am horney. Could you go clean out so a few hours from now we can have sex?" 🤷🏻 

I certainly understand the difference between douching and wiping well. And I both practice and expect the thorough wipe!
I attempted to make that distinction when I referred to "insides of assholes." While I questioned if some comments were referring to exterior, or interior, or both, once the topic of douching was definitively introduced, I thought my comment definitely had  relevancy.

In regard to anyone feeling hideous:
Too tall, too short, too fat, too thin, too masc, too fem , too young,  too old, too slutty, too chaste, and the list goes on. There's always a reason someone out there doesn't , or does, want to sleep with you. Do your best to move on and find the latter guy.

I have seen Matty many times over the year in Charlotte.   His skills are absolutely 10/10.  An amazing experience.  Always easy to talk to and easy to make an appointment.   Highly recommend.   

And that gentlemen is how a quality provider addresses a bad review.
It's a brief review of the facts from their perspective, a very short critique of the party that they feel wronged them, followed by description of their services, including why clients should be motivated to hire them. As an added bonus here, we even have a proposal to attempt to resolution with unhappy clients.

For me there's too many to begin listing.  I've found there's almost always something I can appreciate about another poster, even if we don't see eye to eye.  

Personally, when I didn't live alone, I always made it clear to anyone I invited over. Even now I make it clear that I have a dog.
HOWEVER, whenever I have heard people complain and cry "HE should have told me!" My response has always been "if it was that important to YOU, YOU should have asked."
Like so many things we discuss here, it really calls for reasonable behavior on both sides of the relationship.

I get that most services charge a "delivery fee." If it's extra for an out call though, isn't that extra the "delivery fee?"

Illicit drug use can be rationalized in many ways, including why one form is superior to another. Common rationalizations often include things like: it relaxes me, it takes the edge off, it makes me lose my inhibitions, it gives me a push, it let's me escape. Often "and then I can be more social" is tacked on the end of those phrases.
To say that opiods and opiates are never used to calm or relax someone and thereby make social interactions easier, is akin to saying other depressants, like alcohol or THC, can't be used that same way.
Any addict I've ever known was willing to sell both body and possessions, and often the bodies and possessions of others, to feed their addiction. "Addiction" is the common denominator, not "what" they are addicted to. 
 
 

At my job, when a client is unpleasant or difficult or I dislike dealing with him, the price goes up and my availability decreases. If neither of those happen with the masseur, I would take it as at least a partial sign that "OK" truly meant it was "OK. "

After years heartburn issues, somone recommended I try Keifer as a proactive solution before eating known culprits. It has worked wonderfully for me.
As added benefits, the once or twice year, I do still get heartburn, Keifer is like an organic pepto bismal. I can keep swallowing gulps until the cool, thick texture coats my esophagus and the discomfort disappears because there is no "maximum" daily dose. It's also a great source of calcium and Vit K2.

Have met with at least a few guys who spent a decent amount of time in prison (not jail) at some point. A couple are very well-known around here. If I hadn't known, I never would've guessed. All were/are worry-free and, to me, it makes the meeting much more scorching 🥵 

I am wondering how you would find out that an escort has been in prison--it is unlikely that it would be in his ad. To me, the relevant info would be the source of information and how reliable it is. Then the question would be what he was imprisoned for.

This topic made me realize that I have no idea what any of my relations' genitals looked like.

BTW, although I had sex partners until I was in my 70s, when all of them were younger than I was, no one ever called me "Daddy"--at least, not to my face.

I am going to do the best I can to stay on the side of being transparent, while not endangering anyone's license.
Beforehand we discussed attire and what I expected in a sensual or erotic massage. He agreed to both. I will not say I used the phrase MT, but it'd be impossible to accomplish what I wanted , and he agreed to, without MT.
