Ever had an anoscopy? How much do you respect your doctor, or yourself? If the expected massage is sensual, I would think it common sense to be as clean as possible. No different than a scheduled hook-up. I don't go to a sensual massage appointment without douching first, just in case the guy wants to play. I'm not the type to request things. I like the mystery, and I don't care about sex, as long as the massage is good. I've never needed to take a dump upon visiting a massage therapist. But nerves can play a role in how our digestive system works. Far too often horny men don't pay attention to their diet, and don't think to prepare properly for such an encounter. The last thing I expect from a masseur is for him to take viagra. That strikes me as very weird, and oddly demanding. Last but not least, I'm dead on arrival with certain foul odors. Some men never learn how to properly clean themselves, and I'm talking every orifice. What is a service provider supposed to do in these unfortunate circumstances?

In a former life, I had a nice body. Regular gym goer, very active lifestyle with a very happy relationship. Everything seemed to change after 50. Partner died, and family genes caught up to me. Every doctor's visit seems to come with a new surprise. I'm still here. Just suffering from a little ptsd. I've never been. Too late now. The sun and high heat are no longer my friend.

And then having an orgasm with the help of good porn. That sounds like fun. However, this is not the time in my life to be naked in public. I've lost count of the times I watched the series. Too many great production qualities to talk about. LOL. Mine are white, and do I dare admit I iron them after washing.

I had my doubts, too, but when I questioned my friend, he was adamant it was true. My friend is a good-hearted, successful businessman, and not the kind of person to make up things. Not wanting to be too pushy, or too pessimistic I dropped it. In a situation like this, without having a chance to question the escort, it's difficult to know the whole truth.

I have a younger artist friend who is dating a sex worker he met in Europe. Europe is the sw's home address. The sw has an ad. He also has a U.S. passport. The last time he tried to visit NYC, he was refused entry, and had to do a return flight immediately, at his own expense. TSA told him his name is on a list. I don't know all the facts, but something was said about not letting sex workers into the country to make tax free earnings. Elections have consequences, more than ever before.

I haven't read the whole thread, but I saw this smother video recently and thought it was pretty hot. If it's been posted before, my apologies. https://justthegays.com/video/266093-troy-uses-his-ass-to-smother-kyles-face-while-jordan-jerks-off-jordanxbrandt-troyxbrandt-kylexbrandt-042609/

I don't think I believe that for a minute, especially in this specific realm. So many men do not know their limits, and testing limits can lead to a lot of trouble. Once you've crossed the line, I don't see how one can turn back. Certain fantasies can be like an addictive drug, except this one has far more reaching consequences.

I can't read minds, and others here have more experience with marylander1940's posting intent. Furthermore, marylander1940 has responded. I'm just saying, if the intent was to collect and provoke ridicule, I could see more obvious ways to create a click-bate subject. I'm also trying to say that a conversation about marketing types has its place on this board. I realize it could attract members who like to ridicule, but the conversation should be free to take place nonetheless. We are mostly adults. The 1-3% of providers, who clearly stand out in the crowd, make for interesting insight and analysis. These discussions cause us to think about a lot of things.

It was an attempt at humor, not to be taken seriously. Although, at this point in my old, dilapidated body, any provider who gets erect after seeing me naked qualifies as a sex god.

I don't remember specific details, but I will never forget the public beating Jude Law took after appearing nude either in film of via paparazzi photos. I'm not even talking about gay forums. The ridicule was coming from everywhere, even Yahoo chat spaces. I always thought the guy was hot, so I truly felt sorry for him, and sorry for the far too numerous assholes poking fun at him. We live in a cruel world, which is why I appreciate every good moment I have left. Well, if you weren't born with great genes, and your social skills suck, there's only so much any of us can do to compete with the sex gods. There must be a lot of unhappy gay men out there who are displeased, looking for ways to feel better about their situation. What if your physically not considered attractive, and you're living in the closet? Isn't this a common category of customer for sex workers? It must be a wonderful feeling to have that intimate moment with a fantasy guy. But once the appointment is over, you have to go home and live the life you secretly dread. I'm not trying to excuse rude or uncivil behavior. But I suspect there are a lot of unsatisfied gay men out there, dreaming of happiness, who can't afford the going hourly rate.

Are we talking body shape or penis size? Are there different kinds of measuring up that are more acceptable? Gays here are "measuring up" every other thread, and I don't see anyone questioning it or being offended in any way. Where does one draw the line when it comes to "public evaluation" when the ads are motivated by so many photos? Again, is the same not true for cock size, and the endless threads on that subject? For gay men and the subject of sex, isn't cock size the first "valid" test to pass? I guess after awhile, those of us who don't look like porn stars, are old, or have average-sized cocks, are going to feel beaten down by public evaluation. Maybe this is just one more example of a beating, and there's a limit to what we all can tolerate. I'm having a difficult time trying to parse these differentials into coherency.

Perhaps. If only we all would think before we speak.

I have no idea who marylander1940 is, but I'm having trouble seeing a "troll" attempt in his simple, matter of fact question. A troll effort isn't that obvious to me, and it bothers me that a moderator would jump to this conclusion. (Maybe there is something I don't know.) Here lies the problem with judging words on a platform like this. I don't know the percentage, but I assume many people who hire sex workers do so in large part based on looks or type, and if porn star looks act as any litmus test, Mr. TxDaddyBear might have a difficult time getting hired by Falcon Studios. We can all agree that while there may be a market for TxDaddyBear, based on ads, he falls into less than 1% of types. Given what is obvious about ad offerings, is marylander1940's question really harmful in any way? Have any of you ever been to a marketing meeting at any corporation? These types of questions have to be asked if you want to keep your job.

Free speech has always had an ugly side. When I consider the alternative, I wouldn't want it any other way. At least when someone behaves like a pathetic asshole, you know where that asshole stands. I prefer to know the naked truth about an individual. Then I know whom to ignore. I agree. Personally, I don't like rude incivility. I have experienced a little of that on this board. I choose to ignore it. There is so much valuable information here, and a lot of it is fun and funny. IMO, the positives far outweigh the negatives. No place is perfect.

It sounds like you've never been to a social event with professional hairdressers and make-up artists. A fine line may exist between analyze and criticize, but who knows where that line is? Do people really need an invitation to critique aesthetics? Isn't damning a bad weather day a critique on aesthetics? I think of all the YouTube videos now where unknown people have become Joan Rivers playing fashion police at red carpet events. Critiquing aesthetics is an industry, and not just as it relates to fashion. Gay men are notorious for critiquing aesthetics. Women, too. So many work in creative jobs, it's second nature for them to critique. It can be a job requirement. I have been to so many game nights or Thanksgiving celebrations where most of the social conversation is critiquing aesthetics. So often, friends talking amongst friends will shoot the shit. I'm sure providers know exactly what I mean. Yes, it's slightly different from an online board experience like this because most of us are not friends. We're anonymous people writing to chat about sex workers. IMO, talking about the looks of a sex worker is no different than talking about the looks of our favorite actor, porn star, or our latest boyfriend. There may be a kinder way of sharing or expressing opinions, but holding them back would make life dull and boring.

This is true only if your working name is known to members. Anonymity can protect your business, but you lose the PR opportunity. However, with the private message option, you can reach out to favorite members and possibly extend your truth to them. If you are good at what you do, and you don't play silly games with members, I could see an up-side to this private club style word of mouth. I would call this approach "professional." I would also call it mature and intelligent. Sadly, for many in the sex worker business, these words do not apply.

I was trying to be less cynical. I agree, young people have plenty of time, but far too many have no interest in what grandpa says or does. I think the "text only" and "photo required" trend, especially with gay sex workers, is only going to get worse before it gets better. The texting generation can skirt by with a failing grade in English, and attractive providers who learn how to do OnlyFans can make millions without ever seeing or visiting with a customer. Times, they are a changing. As for the OP's question, moving forward, I imagine trying to get anyone to join a board like this will become less and less easy.

You mean, obsessing over where a post should go isn't stressful enough? 😈 Moderating behavior? Have you ever tried that? Would you do it for free? If you start moderating what people write and how they write, in short time the board will be empty. Careful what you wish for. Most internet forums are archaic. Young people don't and won't participate. God forbid you try to get someone under 30 use to email anymore. Writing takes time, and nobody has time. That's why the HE fraudsters can do so well. I know from my former hairdresser partner that this question is a longtime conundrum in the intimate service industry. Is it appropriate to socialize with customers? He always said an emphatic no. My partner said it's OK to be friendly with a customer, but never assume they are your friend. Forums like these are social environments. Some people think it's easy to mix business with social pleasure. It's not. Some guys know how to navigate challenging waters. Others turn into gold fish when facing a shark. A review site, especially about sex, can't be a friendly place for providers by default. Who is good at accepting criticism? Do you know any actors who love their critics, and want to be social with them? Let's get real. I've discovered several new masseurs thanks to this forum. I have also learned more about escorting. I would hate for the candid review-speak to end. If there are smart providers who wish to use the forum to self-promote and socialize with customers, then I support that. But they have to know, or learn, what they can do and what they can't do. It's kind of like joining any social club. Human nature sets the rules.

With sex work, addiction is always the elephant in the room, isn't it? Client or provider. It seems to me, the line between sex and any other addiction is very thin. How is anyone supposed to know, until it reveals itself? PNP is an option in these ads for a reason. So many gay men love having sex when they are high. IMO, when Jacob wrote "I’m not a meth addict — not even close," it begs the question, how close with meth? A poor choice of words does not make someone an addict, but drug use is drug use, and a lot of customers don't want to engage with PNP players. If you do drugs or let clients do them while on a job, you open the door to everything that comes with drug use. Lies are at the top of the list.

Jonathan Groff's last curtain call.

I suspect this issue may be different for users in another country. Everything from my Prime account has ads, usually at the very beginning, but they are nowhere near as obnoxious as Hulu. HBO Max is also obnoxious, but not quite as bad as Hulu. Streaming companies are making a fortune off of these ads, and their making another fortune off the consumer who pays for the bare minimum service, which also comes with ads. With endless bad movies costing hundreds of millions of dollars, most failures at the box office, it's the consumers who end up paying for these insane budget failures. It's an incredible racket that sickens my stomach. It's going to get much worse before it gets better, I'm afraid.

Giving a great massage requires a lot of energy. Providing porn sex requires a ton of energy. I don't know how anyone can sustain both, while making a career out of it. I'm burned out just from reading about members sexual appetites.

The show is being hailed as "the gayest show on Broadway." How is this a gay board, and there isn't a solid thread on Titanique? I was taken recently, not knowing anything about it. I never heard of it. I was surprised to learn about its history. It debuted in Los Angeles in December 2017, and it seems to have been touring ever since. It's already been a hit Off Broadway. Three friends are the creators. Tye Blue directs, Marla Mindelle plays Celine Dion, and Constantine Rousouli plays Jack. All three are listed as producers. The show is extremely campy, with a very fun concept. Celine Dion shows up at the Titanic museum, and shares her side of the story (as if she was there), using her song catalogue to re-live James Cameron's famous movie. It is really something to behold. On Broadway, Frankie Grande (Ariana's gay brother) is playing Victor Garber, and the performance is delicious, especially if you enjoy a cute, petite, skinny twink. Jim Parsons (in quasi drag) is playing Ruth DeWitt Bukater, Rose's mother. And the fabulous Deborah Cox is playing Molly Brown. The incredible Layton Williams, who won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role in the West End production, plays Tina Turner and the Iceberg. So funny. The audience are members of a cult. I haven't experienced energy like this since the early days of Rent. Multiple standing ovations. The Broadway run is a limited engagement, ending in July. Personally, I fell in love with Constantine Rousouli. So talented, and very sexy.

Thank you DMICS. I see that he has aged in the content. As his body has gotten larger, he's looking older. His face has changed a bit, but still good looking. Porn is my sex life now, and I'm really surprised I've never seen him before. How could anyone be surprised by his success? He looks like a pro athlete turned porn star. For a fun sex fantasy, I try to imagine what it might have been like to have him as a college roommate. He could smother my face with his sweaty groin, remain flaccid, and I'd still want to give him my savings account.

Sadly, we're living in an age when women being cunty to other women is considered entertainment. We'll know soon whether the box office holds up. I'm sure the movie will do fine on streaming, even if the reviews are awful.
