Now, that was really funny! I think we can acknowledge at this point that we are all coming from different points of view, but all of them are valid and grounded in our own intersections of common sense and scientific knowledge. And @LookingAround, I hope this makes you realize that perhaps your experiences, circle of friends/acquaintances, and perception of the “real world” are not as broad as you thought, even just within the context of men who like men and live in NYC. @pubic_assistance and I are far from alone in our condom evangelism 😉

Wow, what a handsome man! Does he have a non-masseur profile on a related site?

Grande’s breathiness is basically my ONLY criticism of the movie. To my ears, it came across as an aesthetic choice to sound more “pop” since I think she’s generally a phenomenal vocalist and capable of producing a more organically legit sound.

Marsden was stunningly handsome during his stint on “30 Rock”! So much so that I would have switched his and Jon Hamm’s roles.

@Monarchy79, thank you for so beautifully writing out your measured thoughts and providing perfect examples. I once read an article about a young man who contracted HIV as a teenager from his first sexual encounter. This is why I’m extremely pro-condom and taking every precaution possible to avoid getting STIs.

Yes, $400 for an hour is (mathematically speaking) the “mode” NYC rate. Median/average is a bit lower.

FWIW I have several family members and friends who are retired from regular jobs yet still try to call me while I’m at work. It’s like they magically forgot that people generally can’t have full phone conversations while they’re at work… or maybe their work environments allowed for that.

To me, age is just a number and one of the least important factors. While there is an age that men (to my eyes) are no longer hot, it is different for every guy… I call it the “grandpa effect” when men hit a wall and suddenly start looking elderly. Otherwise, hot is hot whether a guy is 21 or 65. When I was in my 20s, I would have 100% hit on a lean/fit 50 year old. That said, I do think that most men tend to peak between late 20s and mid 30s.

There used to be a restaurant in NYC that sold “Australian iced coffee”, which was coffee with ice cream in it!

You’re not alone; I have a very limited schedule, so once I know when I will be available for an encounter, I ask the provider if he is available at that date/time. If I had the flexibility of the clients this thread is talking about, I would probably make a few suggestions and have the provider choose the one that works best for him, but just saying “whenever” leads to an endless exchange.

I drink iced coffee year-round, regardless of the weather (yes, even when the temperature is sub-zero)! Those bottled frappuccinos are delicious but don’t satisfy my caffeine craving.

[(X-Y)/5]+Y Y=20 [(X-20)/5]+20 The answer has to be over 20 since 20 is added (assuming X is over 20) If X is 30, the answer is 22 If X is 70, the answer is 30 So, basically the poster is saying that his preferred age goes up a year every 5 years.

I just came across this interesting video about the rapid rise of iced coffee in the USA. Strange, since I’ve been addicted to iced coffee since 2008 (and usually don’t drink hot coffee or hot beverages in general). I didn’t realize this was at all unique, but perhaps the trope of NYC gays drinking iced coffee and walking fast is a smaller bubble than I thought. https://youtu.be/JV5bDK0G9FU

Not all adults live alone or with roommates. I personally live with my parents (to take care of them), and I know there are a lot of other adults in a similar situation. And other adults have spouses and/or children. And some adults live with their (adult) siblings or as roommates, so a “date” coming over wouldn’t be appropriate. I’m always baffled when people are baffled by this lol. I actually did this a long time ago for a couple hookups… both hookups were great, but the hotels were really seedy.

My two biggest recent crushes have been Jonathan Bailey and Nicholas Galitzine. Like @maninsoma I’ve also recently been seeing some incredibly sexy pics of Tom Holland popping up on Facebook and they’re really doing it for me (despite my never really having thought about him in the past). Guess I have a thing for Brits 😉

Wow, gorgeous guy! Can’t explain why; just something about him!

I think it was just the angle/format of the two pics… I definitely look different in real life than I did 10 years ago 🙃

An escort I am very interested in has pics in his profile that were taken in 2016/2017 but posted recently… all of his reviews (here and elsewhere) say he is hot and looks like his pics, so maybe he genuinely does still look like those pics (I know when I put my passport photos next to each other from 10 years apart, they looked 100% identical, so it’s definitely possible).

I see it while logged in. Really hot pics… great body, face, and those lips! Wish he didn’t mention partying in his profile (which could impact his future).

I used to see ripped, shirtless homeless guys in the Village all the time… I may or may not have fantasized about cleaning them up 😂

Glad they took the high road! And while I have not seen either of these productions, I have experienced sound bleed between these two (and other) theatres.

FYI there are several audio clips on TikTok and they sound phenomenal!

In addition to what everyone else has mentioned, it’s important that he doesn’t have every “into” selected, as it shows that he put thought into what is or is not selected- for example, I’m less likely to contact a guy who has “PNP” and “fisting” selected, and more likely to select a guy who has “kissing” selected. But more importantly, as I wrote in another recent thread: One of the main elements I look for when I peruse an escort’s profile is if I can tell WHY he escorts. If he seems like he does it because he can make a lot of money or is desperate to make ends meet? Wrong reason. If he seems like he does it as a favor to those less hot than him? Wrong reason. If he seems like he does it because he genuinely loves sex and making others happy? Right reason!

Exactly, the whole point of paying is that the client gets to call the shots- in an unpaid hookup, if one guy is out of the other’s league, the roles would be more likely to be reversed. And generally speaking, people don’t go into professions they hate. If your least favorite/worst subject in school was math, you’re probably not an accountant. The same premise applies to being a provider... if a provider doesn’t enjoy sexual activity with a variety of types of guys at least to some degree, it would not be a viable career.

Yes, that is basically what I’m getting at.
