I am HORRENDOUS at recognizing people out of context- I have had full conversations with people while having no idea who they were… usually I can at least figure out how/where I know someone from after a few minutes, but I usually never figure out their name. And they ALWAYS look familiar but I can’t place them. In Gareth’s situation, just think of how many men this escort must have been with in the last 20 years. I haven’t been with even a fraction of the amount of guys he has but don’t think I’d be able to pick every guy I’ve hooked up with out of a lineup.

A “side” is a person who prefers oral only to anal activities (it’s a position like top, bottom, or vers).

The vast majority of my escort encounters (in only about 2 years of hiring) and hookups in general (in about 14 years of hooking up albeit rarely) have been oral only. In fact, the best oral service I ever got was from an escort who designates himself as a total top.

Exactly! Too many fish in the sea to have to jeopardize my privacy (at least in NYC).

Omfg I HATE that whispering thing!! It’s my #1 actor pet peeve and makes me immediately change the channel (and a lot of actors do it).

Yes, but in all cases the remorse had nothing to do with my ability to pick, and I felt that the result was “meant to be”, eg in case 1 I was not meant to have sex that night and in case 2 I was meant to end up having a lot of fun with a guy who wasn’t on top of my “list” because the first choice didn’t work out.

This was a response to someone’s response to my on-topic comment. ETA: on that note, all of my comments and the responses to my comments have veered way off topic, so I’ll stop responding to this thread.

Theatre actors generally make less than 1k a WEEK unless they’re on Broadway!

A family member had a similar reaction when raising her dose of Mounjaro. She’s now back on ozempic (which she had been on first) but it’s not really impacting her appetite or helping her lose weight.

Why would you assume I haven’t done that? I don’t want to get too personal on here, but in a nutshell, I had almost superhuman lung capacity pre-pandemic. Now no matter what I do, no matter how hard I work, it’s still above average but not the same.

Yes, I first heard of PrEP around 2015. I have had allergic reactions or very uncommon side effects (in some cases delayed) to various medications, hence my reluctance to try a relatively new one. I have also received yearly COVID and flu vaccines, and am still generally very pro-vaccine, but my reactions to the vaccines have consistently been worse than any time I have had the viruses themselves (yes, I am aware that that is the point of vaccines, but I am also including times I have had the flu before a vaccine). As for masks… masks are not meant to be worn 24/7; it is just not a natural way to breathe. Going straight from never having worn a mask to wearing an N95 all the time caused shortness of breath, skin irritation, headaches where the straps were, etc. I dabble in an industry where I’m acutely aware of these things, and I’m 99% sure that wearing a mask so much permanently impacted my lung capacity.

I wouldn’t call myself “sexually active” since I do it like 3 times a year, and always use a condom for anal, but I’m not on PrEP because (among other reasons) I don’t want to be on any medications that aren’t 100% necessary. I had been a “mask and vaccine police” of sorts during the pandemic and do think that the vaccines and prolonged mask wearing negatively impacted my long-term health. I’m definitely not opposed to getting on PrEP eventually, but I would have to be in a situation where I at least have the time and resources to be sexually active, and by that point PrEP will have been around long enough for there to be more research on long-term side effects, efficacy, etc.

You’re required to kiss any real-life leprechaun (aka man under 5’6) you meet for the rest of the month 😘

Something ethereally handsome about this man… I hope he eventually returns to NYC!

Yep, when discussing potential activities in advance, I always say something along the lines of “if I top you I would have to wear a condom”. Not to beat a dead horse on here, but I still can’t imagine being anti-condom. And exactly, even if STIs didn’t exist, I’d still probably want a barrier between my dick and the poop 💩
