Good roster of gents, including several very appealing new gents who were lots of fun. When I got there (earlier than usual), the ratio of gents to patrons was a bit skewed (three "dancers" to every one patron). This imbalance always brings the energy down and makes the aggressive guys even more persistent. But things were much more balanced by the time I left (around 11) and the energy was definitely picking up. My only/main complaint? There were far fewer places to sit than usual. But I had a very nice time.

on X (@OFNickFloyd), he's looking as good as ever.

The two times I've been to BuffDaddys@RedEye recently, it's been really dark and the club/house music has been SUPER loud. Plus the fog machine has been running at near-toxic levels. Do different nights have different djs?

There has been no email for the last two weeks, so far as I know. The most recent I've received (sent two weeks ago, at 435pm ET, on 5/8) reads: There will be NO SHOW tonight. Stay tuned for updates on new venues! The next Nude Party will be on Saturday, May 30th! I'll update this thread if anything comes through re tonight.

These events happen in private spaces, with the address provided with pre-registration. The party started in Philly. Moved to Cherry Hill. The Philly space was good. The Cherry Hill space is great.

For a long time, I was most interested in sampling the broad array of pleasures and almost made a point of never hiring the same gent twice. Coming out of the pandemic, that began to shift as I discovered one gent who I couldn't get enough of... In the last couple years, I keep trying to sample, but haven't had much luck (lots of ghosting/roads-to-nowhere and some mixed results). Perhaps as a result am more inclined to hire gents with whom I have some fondness/chemistry and with whom I know the pieces fit nicely...

It's a 1-on-1 video call.

Ditto what @sniper said, but also to add: occasionally it's also the "haven't been seen in a while" veterans who start the evening in underpants... But never more than 1 or 2 among the 25+ gents strutting around starkers.

Thanks, all -- so helpful to hear all your perspectives on this situation. Especially @Ichabod's admonition to "find a way to get comfortable with ignoring his request."

Recently had a "meh" encounter with an established CoM-recommended gent. In the subsequent 24hrs, routine pleasantries were exchanged via text. A week after the meetup, I receive another text politely but directly requesting that I leave a five star review, referencing our post-meetup pleasantries as evidence of my having a great time and noting that "things have been slow lately"... This particular gent has 100+ RM reviews -- with most recent from April 2026 -- and he currently has a 5.0 rating. I'm perplexed about how to proceed. I could just ignore the request -- which is typically not how I roll, so it feels weird and uncomfortable to do so. I could leave the 5star review -- which wouldn't be honest but under no circumstances would I mess with any gent's overall rating just because I could. I could reply to him explaining that I no longer leave reviews on RM, due past (not great) experiences doing so -- which is basically true but possibly irrelevant I could do something else that I'm not thinking of... I do not anticipate booking with this particular gent again. And I don't know that I'm looking for guidance. Just needed to shake this annoyance off. PS: as an aside, I find that I'm mostly okay with tipping culture run amok but it's the unrelenting loop of "please leave a rating to let us know how well we served you today" feedback requests that is clearly working my nerves...

In addition to breathmints, I usually carry mouthwash travel packs and some hygienic wipes for on-the-go touch ups. Good for both before or after an encounter with a gent, if/as needed. I highly recommend DentaViva Mouthwash Travel Packets.

Jimmy's reliably great. One of my favorite, drama-free, go-to gents. A sweetheart, too.

I hired a (now long-retired) gent for this once. Both the workout and the playtime were, um, fine. Also had a favorite regular gent surprise me with a session in his in-home gym. Started out super fun, but became awkward/uncomfortable as things got going, so we just moved to the adjacent bedroom. In our subsequent meetups, we haven't been back to his gym.

Next party is April 3... https://x.com/unleaxxxhed/ RSVP required.

He sees male clients. Based on my experience, he has a process of vetting clients that will clarify your questions respectfully and efficiently.

Such an interesting question, @BCMan I don't know that there's such a website, aside from perhaps Seeking.com (which has its own limits). That said, some thoughts... it sounds like forum contributor @BenjaminNicholas would deftly meet this criteria. you might explore the offerings of LuxeMentor; and depending on your location (and height requirements), I'd endorse James Dumont for your consideration. And I'll be interested to see which other providers come to mind for other forum contributors...

About ten years ago, I appeared on Who Wants to be a Millionaire as the in-person "Lifeline" for someone. Helped them answer the $50k question correctly. But I've never competed on one myself. I have some LA friends who seem to do this or that lower-profile game show every couple years.

Where do you live? I'm aware of a number of figure drawing classes that engage a primarily gay/queer cohort of artists in NYC, including at least one that hosts remote modeling sessions. One of the best NYC ones hosts male models of all ages/shapes and another often includes more explicitly erotic poses/sequences. There are also private groups for more serious/experienced artists. I'm also aware of at least one gay figure drawing group in LA and one in San Francisco, plus one based in the UK that hosts models from all over for artists that are as well. But, yes -- your local college maybe, and probably also your local arts society/council, but there might also be other opportunities in the gay communities near you...

When I first started hiring about a dozen years ago, I rarely went back for seconds. Not for any particular reason, just because I found the variety exciting. Coming out of the pandemic, I did lock into one regular guy who was and is great and we began to become friends in a way. Our "relationship" went to a different place (seeing movies together "off the clock," checking in when life got complicated, etcetera) but I soon recognized that we would likely never really be able to be in each other's "real lives" without it getting complicated, so I scaled back on meetings with him. Boundaries are important in this hobby and it seemed necessary to recalibrate. More recently, I've not had great luck when "sampling the offerings" so have been more inclined to rehires. Mostly to get past the getting acquainted phase so that we're both able to relax into the encounter. One gent I've been seeing somewhat regularly lately isn't the most dynamic but he's gorgeous, kind, easy to be with, the pieces make for a great fit, and our time together has been reliably gratifying. Which I consider a definite win and a clear reason to book him again. But I think he's one of only three gents I've booked 3+ times.

Set up appointments with promising & well-reviewed gents in Las Vegas, Providence, and Atlanta -- only to get ghosted on the day. Every. Single. Time. So tedious.

Yep. Smart, kind, engaged, great booty...
