US law is extraterritorial whenever they feel like it. See the US tax code.

Yes it's not the in person activity that is the crime, it's the online discussion. The meet is, I think, just the "proof of intent" because if all someone did was talk online without ever acting on it, they'd have a harder time convicting in the court of public opinion that this was A Bad Person who the state needs to expend resources on putting away.

I think they are failing to realize that the people who get that kind of money aren't advertising online, they're getting passed around by word of mouth through GOP fundraisers.

I think it's a provision of federal law, the Communications Decency Act or some such.

I'm pretty sure when communication is online 18 is the cutoff regardless of age of consent in the state

Some of these I read about though it sounds like the agent both initiates contact and steers the conversation over a fairly long period of time. Id agree with you on cases where the meeting happens within days of initial contact. On the ones that involve months of buildup? I'm not so sure.

I do wonder how many of the people caught in these "stings" where no child was ever involved were likely to ever meet a real child. I suspect most of them wouldn't have.

Oh, I was missing that he was sending you messages, just thought he was viewing you. You could just reply, thanks but not interested and see if it stops, and if it doesn't, then block.

Is it possible he's simply swiping through a list as opposed to closely looking at you? I wouldn't think much of it if he's not actually contacting you. I once got a nasty message in Grindr fro. someone to "stop looking at me" when i was just using the swipe feature to scroll through profiles amd his came up often because he was relatively close

Didn't Tyler get his fill of shooting documentaries already? Wait, you mean those massage videos WEREN'T documentaries?

I would think given the lenght of flight even if it's just am overnight with you he should get his 24 hour rate because that's how much of his time is involved. Maybe suggest that -you pay his airfare plus whatever his standard 24 hour rate is.

You'd never bring it up, but the producers would damn sure make sure it came up. I assure you they know about it even if they're not telling you now.

I don't remember if it was this board or the old ATKOL forums -like I think I read it in the late 90s early 2000s, but someone had a story of running into Chance on a plane and discreetly messing around on the plane nonprofessionally - initiated by Chance- so I suspect he's at least a little bi. (But who knows, i think there are a lot of bi guys where the type of guy they get into is so specific or so situational it's more kink than orientation.)

When the beard trend ends people will be able to shave but if the tattoo trend ends these people are gonna be stuck with tattoos. I wish people would put more thought into them. Some are cool, most look like they handed a needle to a six year old and said "Draw me a picture."

39 is the universal code for "north of 40" and people also do it so they will at least show up in searches. If pics are current(which they aren't here) I don't think it's an issue. He's been in porn in the last 5 years or so and still looked pretty good.

And frankly the producers are probably hoping for the series to cause drama in your lives because it's publicity for them. Hard pass.

Your livelihoods skirt the edge of legality and your local government is not exactly supportive. You have far more to lose than to gain. And this forced drag thing sounds ridiculous.

I think in the interest of minimizing the "scene," if possible I would have paid the bill, taken it and the coupon to the casino manager later and secured an equivalent value comp. Restaurants inside casinos are a weird situation as some are owned separately, some aren't and it's not at all apparent to the customer and they don't necessarily even update the staff on promotions. Without actually being there and hearing what was said/how it was said it's hard to tell how your guest would be expected to react. (for example, I have a friend who immediately jumps to 11 and starts dropping f-bombs and beyond in any customer service dispute and regardless of whether he is initially right, the way he acts is a problem for me. )

Why is she trying to give bedroom eyes in that pose?

In the US you are paying a premium for legal risk, and/or the supply shortage the higher legal risk/social disapproval causes. In much of Europe even when it's still technically illegal, fewer law enforcement resources are brought to bear on it. Here websites are afraid to have straight up personal ads for fear of legal liability should their site be used for sex work.

If you're at the point where you set your own hours and love your job, how is it sad? Some people feel a calling. As the saying goes, Love what you do for a living and you'll never work a day in your life. Historically, doctors never retiring used to be the norm. Hence they had just about the lowest rates for long-term disability insurance. Then sometime in the 80s or 90s they started getting fed up with corporatized healthcare and started signing off on each others' "disabilities" to retire early and premiums went way up.

So did you find him on Grindr or just run into him in the hotel?

Wonder if SC Daniel escorts.

The idea that asses are self-lubricating. I wonder how many anal fissures have resulted from people not knowing about lube because it's pretty much never seens or talked about, and sex ed in this country is a joke. As for the ATM in porn, it sure seems like those bottoms have douched themselves so thoroughly you could eat dinner off their ass. Like you don't see ANYTHING on the cock as it comes out and porn is in HD these days...I can't imagine the guys doing it at, say, Sean Cody would do it if they weren't rather thoroughly cleaned out. I certainly wouldn't do it myself, but seeing it on porn doesn't gross me out because they seem so...sanitized.

I think it was more like you shouldn't be too trusting that other people are honest. And maybe not be too forthcoming about, say, your financial condition. eg let them know you're willing to spend on a goid time, don't let on right away that you are well-heeled enough to support them full-time.
