When you get your degree in epidemiology, I may take your opinion under consideration. Until then, I do not want to patronize a gym that allowed anyone's naked skin on benches and dismisses it as "low risk". As long as the word "risk" is involved, it's up to me to determine how much of it I'm willing to encounter.

Lawless, risky, selfish acts happen every second of every minute of every day. It doesn't make it right or prudent.

YES! Most of them, from the ones I've seen around Lowes and Home Depot speak minimal English. It's taking advantage of desperate men in the worst way. It's a type of sex trafficking. Don't even think about it.

Oh, no! Ramsey is valuable only for inspiration on savings and credit usage. I wouldn't take his advice on investing. I'm also aware of the Cult-of-Ramsey. His claque of money cheerleaders all have published books they are hawking. Buying any of them would eat into any cash saved from financial restraint in other areas.

I got a response from DarkChocolate: NO SEX or kissing (no surprise there). Boyfriend experience includes a date: dinner, movies, muscle worship, cuddling. I assume I'd pay for both the dinner and /or movie on top of a three-hour fee. It's a hard pass for me.

Any info?

And does not list any acts that he will or can be inferred won't do when hired. He lists himself as straight; usually an automatic No! from me.

I had an escort on RM like this. Scheduled him about three weeks in advance. Everything was fine, all systems Go! .. until two days before the planned meeting. Then, miraculously some friend of his became deathly ill and only the escort in question could soothe the brow of the afflicted. Luckily, I had scheduled a back-up escort in the same city, just in case.

This is good info. I was considering hiring him myself on one of my Vegas escapades. Nothing sexier than a mature man with a muscular body. But the deposit business leaves me cold. What's to prevent him from keeping the deposit and vanishing into the ether? Get enough eager beavers on the hook and he could make a tidy income supplement for doing absolutely nothing.🤨

His profile reads he's "into" muscle... Lord love him for being into muscle because those photos don't indicate he provides it. Boy ain't even cute! $600.00? Maybe he's slow and meant to type $60.00 -- could be decimal trouble.

Men, let me brag a bit that as of 15th October, I have finally paid off all my credit cards! I took Dave Ramsay's Financial Peace University course last year and it has changed how I regard credit, spending, and saving.😎 It feels lighter not to have to juggle minimum payments each month. My income is my own again. The trick now will be to forget I have the cards; not to give into the temptation to use them again for anything but extreme emergencies.

Can you attach an example? Two fingers, depending on its direction is the classic "peace" sign or the British "up yours" i.e., fuck you. But three fingers?

Yes! In my prime I always turned heads and ruffled a few homophobic feathers when I wore my running shorts after a gym workout.

Ooh-wee! You be taking the MONSTER dicks! When it comes to them anacondas, all that deep plunging and thrusting is bound to shake something loose in the intestinal tract. It's hot to read about such deep probing in gay jerk-off fiction but I suppose in real life there's the risk of going where no enema has gone before....

I hope so, too. The responses do tend to illustrate that there are issues with cultivating and maintaining gay people as friends -- unfortunately. So Eric may take cold comfort from the fact that he's not alone in his dearth of gay friends. But why should being gay make one more tolerant or welcoming? In the end, people are just people.

Y'all arousing my curiosity. I got disinvited from a weekend in P-town by my ex. He was going for an AA jamboree of some kind, so the trip wasn't going to be a laugh a minute! I tend to distance myself from gay ghettos such as P-town, Fire Island and those LGBTQ-themed cruises (floating bathhouses). Maybe I've been too hasty in writing off such venues...

But you can't leave out the "gay" because the original post was about not having GAY friends. I, too, share the original poster's dearth of friends who are gay. I've occasionally lamented this, but I accept that real life is not an episode of "Will and Grace" or "Looking" or "Noah's Arc". Add to my situation that I'm a black gay man. Racism and separatism is rife among the alleged gay "community." My fellow black gay men are so deep in denial that they are gay (still in the grip of internalized homophobia) that they are furtive, laconic, and ill at ease around in situations where gayness may be inferred. I used to volunteer to man our gay/lesbian switchboard. During orientation training, first ice-breaker question was to self-identify who was single or not. Whom one screws or wishes he could screw has nothing to do with friendship. This is why I tell men who want claim to want to be friends first and see what happens romantically, once they are my friend zone, they will NEVER become my lovers. One of the gay "friends" I thought I'd made showed me otherwise. He stated he refused to introduce me to his fat white boyfriend because he thought I would steal his boyfriend! After two years of acquaintanceship, it was like this "friend" knew nothing about me at all.

Me, too! I'm really versatile but it seldom comes up when sex is on the table. Once I entered my 40s the expectation was/is I will do all the fucking. And this includes all the allegedly "butch" "masculine" men. Hey! If men with sexy muscular asses are offering it up....

Shirtless gyms? That is so unsanitary. I do not look forward to laying down for a bench press where some shirtless knucklehead has sweated and left a dose of his dead skin cells and bacteria. No! As to the original question, I believe attitudes and practices around male nudity are generational. Older men 50+ may be more comfortable with their nudity and sexual agency; they be more accepting of the effects of gravity and the aging process taking its toll on an average body. In contrast, young men are self-conscious of being the firm young flesh on the floor, the presumed objects of all desire, so they are in a panic to remain covered lest some horny old devil perv on them. But wearing underwear in the sauna or jacuzzi? How sad.

The REAL reason why someone is block trigger-happy? ... because they can. The internet has crippled many men from approaching or conversing with each other in any significant way. The block feature on apps or webpages supports the growing fear of awkward social online situations. One click, and it's like it never happened.

You can call yourself whatever you please, it doesn't make it so. As an LMT I can tell you draping is a requirement. The only part of the body that should be exposed is the one being worked upon. However, I have had male clients in my mobile practice who get on my table ATOP the cover sheet or blanket. I go with it, mindful that I am bending a convention of professional massage therapy. I just pretend the groin area is not there. Erections do happen but it's a no-go zone. I remember when I was confronted by a big FAT hard on.. It took all my willpower not to lean in and have a suck. Memories! But to answer the thread's question, licensure probably doesn't matter to "masseurs" as they may lack the techniques, the knowledge of human anatomy, and ethical restrictions that licensure guarantees and imposes. It's a buyer's market. The clients know whom to seek for whatever body work they desire.

So are you saying you all were mute during the encounters? Gracious! My powers of telepathy vanished around when I was eight years old..

This you do you, I do me mindset is why STDs such as HIV continue to spread at the rate it does, despite all we know -- after more than 30 years -- of how to avoid it. Some men still delude themselves that the sexual choices they make don't affect other men. The fact is none of us lives in a sexual vacuum. Gay circles are a lot smaller than we think.

FWIW (see? I know the jargon. I choose not to use it), I also know STDs are now STIs -- a rose by any other name, etc. As for condoms, in my experience, the men I've been with seem to wait for me to draw the line and insist on condom usage. I have gotten only one balk at wearing a condom -- and he later relented because he wanted me to fuck him. It could be a case of each party waiting to see how the other will react if and when condoms are mentioned. As for the comparisons about drinking alcohol, it's a faulty analogy. An alcoholic or drug addict ruins only his internal organs and compromises the quality of only his life. But when one engages in risky sexual behavior, it affects unsuspecting others who may not have agreed to engage in the previous risky behavior.

Too many conditionals! If this,... if that...if the other... Put on a condom! I've never understood the aversion to them. It takes me five seconds to put on a condom.. then I'm off to the races. The PREP drugs -- pills or shots -- do not protect against all STDs. This apparent tunnel vision about Prep is part of the reason why drug-resistant syphilis and gonorrhea cases are on the rise.

No, it's not OK! If I'm paying, I want what I want. If a given escort doesn't provide it, there are plenty of others. The worst that could happen? A gullible or shy client could be taken for a ride and be out several hundred dollars based on reviews that could be years old or bogus. Escort reviews are not objective and do not apply to all situations and clients.
