The truth may be somewhere in between. She’s unprofessional and insecure, but she might also see your efforts to go beyond your job description as overreach. If you have a mentor, you might want to seek his counsel on the political battle ahead of you.

Good God FFluff… he’s not taking the pets too is he~? It’s time to amber alert children~ Quick… you can all find safety in Puerto Vallarta at Beef Dip~ There’s a few days left~ 
Wear them around your neck like Mardi Gras beads… you’ll blend in perfectly and know one will ever know~ 

 if he finds you there… just sell them off on the beach to strangers~ A tough decision but, they can take the caravan back and you can meet them in Baja~ 

Thanks for the excellent advice, Tyger. Hubs caught me shaking my ass on St Ann’s wearing my doll necklace..I’m sitting at a folding table on the beach hawking them. After negotiating for an hour , I got $2.70 for the auburn and purple one, but I I’m keeping the  sombrero.

Calm down. Your husband has no right to take your children and property from you. He probably is not familiar with the law and is just trying to get you emotional. If the spouses divorce by mutual consent, the acquired property is usually divided in half, and the children remain with their mother. If the children are at least twelve years old, they have the right to choose which parent they want to stay with. Jointly acquired property goes to the possession of both the mother and father. I advise you to contact a family lawyer. Legal assistance is the only proper solution in these situations.

I will NOT calm down. Those are MY Strawberry Shortcake micro-dolls, and he has no right to them!

It can take a long time for the results of what strain you have but for at least the last 2 months, 99% of all Covid cases are now the Omicron strain.  

True. I’m asking how you can tell if you’ve been infected if you’re also vaxxed and boosted. According to an NYT article, if you’ve been infected with Omicron, you won’t be reinfected for at least 3 months. 

Is there any way to test whether you’ve been infected with the Omicron strain if you were boosted a couple of months ago? Can the antibody test differentiate between the two?

While new cases have decreased tremendously, they’re still pretty high. Omicron is MUCH more transmissible so it’s much easier to pick it up. 

If you’re SUPER risk adverse, don’t travel. 

If you’re willing to balance risk with living a bit, use a N95 mask and don’t take it off PERIOD until you reach your destination. Don’t eat/drink, etc. Once you land and get to your destination before you remove your mask, wash your hands. Don’t touch the facial area (eyes/mouth/nose) before you’re scrubbed. 

The good thing is that while more transmissible… if you do get it, it’s not as hard on folks.  ESPECIALLY if you’re triple vaxed. In addition there are now therapeutics (a pill) available you can take if you get it that dramatically reduces your chance of the really bad symptoms. 

 

 This is what I thought too. I was flying all over the place until just before Christmas. Omicron changed things because it’s so infectious. Risk of hospitalization is low, but I really want to avoid the medium to longer term side effects, like “temporary” hair loss and headaches, if at all possible. 

 

I was set to take a trip to LA next week. I’d fly and then stay in a hotel, travel to a nearby city by Uber, and then return.  If I don’t go next week, it will probably be another six months before I can do it.
 

I really want to avoid Omicron because some of the medium term side effects are a problem for me. I’ve gone to great lengths to avoid it so far. Should I postpone the trip?

Hello.  I have been having some pain/stiffness/numbness in my neck/shoulder/arm for several years on and off.  About two weeks ago, someone pushed hard on my shoulder downward while I was sitting and my neck was not straight.  That person did not hit, it was just a big push.  My pain/numbness has increased.  How likely is it to damage nerves or displace a cervical disc with that type of push?  I am in the process of getting x-rays and MRI but I wanted to see what people thought to hopefully reduce my stress while I am waiting for the results.

The c-some is more durable than it looks. One classic study shows that about 2/3 of cervical disc herniations resolve with it surgery.

I had a cervical disc extrusion a few years ago. The pain was horrendous; it sounds like yours isn’t quite as bad.  I had an epidural steroid injection, which was helpful, and I’ve been doing PT on and off since then. 
 

Happy birthday to one of my favorite posters!

Have I read them personally ? No.

Do I know what they said ? Not word for word ..but yes.

Everyone needed to sign them so it was no secret and the subject has been written on in years past.

Since the "house guests" weren't being "paid for sex" there was nothing illegal. 

Hefner's lawyers always made it clear he was having a "relationship" with these bunnies. And yes they all knew they were expected to ride the pony.

Like I said, I read tell-all accounts by two gfs, one of whom has a JD. Neither mentioned a contract. If there was one, it apparently didn’t include an NDA, which is odd. 

Are you referring to agreements signed by guests at the Playboy Mansion parties?

From the NYT; “Sex with Hefner was not a requirement, strictly speaking, though most of his girlfriends did sleep with him, it appears, either out of gratitude or because of pressure from the others.”  So Hef and the gfs all claim that the women did not sign a contract requiring sex but were “pressured” by “the others,” which is what I wrote in an earlier post.

I keep asking time & again what exactly prevented Hefner's "girlfriends" from leaving.  Coercion need not be as violent as a knife to the throat or a death threat.  Yes, Hefner had far more money & power than these women.  Yes, he legally protected himself with pricey lawyers.  While those factors put Hefner at an advantage, they fall far short of kidnapping or imprisonment.  Rape & sex slavery are serious charges.  If these women are going to make those allegations, they should back it up with something more than a vague "feeling" or a copy & paste from a gender studies reading assignment. 

Hefner was very good at pressuring the girls to stick around, and he refined his tactics over time. For example, when he figured out that the gfs were saving their clothing allowances and using them to finance rent when they moved out, he started asking for receipts to confirm that the money was used for clothing.
 

As for sex, Hef didn’t need lawsuits. He relied on the head gf to inform the new girls about sexual expectations—-after the new girl moved in. If any girls didn’t perform up to his standards, he wouldn’t give them their allowance that week. Source: Books by two of the gfs, whose stories were largely consistent. 

Also, he took photos of the gfs in compromising positions when they were drunk or high and kept them in a scrapbook. One of the gfs said she stayed longer than she might have otherwise because she feared that the photos would be released. His wife he confirmed that he kept these photos and tweeted that she burned them all after his death.

Now it comes out: Hugh was gay😱:

The article says the doctor was accused of having sexual relationships and doing illegal drugs with with women patients.
 

So I guess it happened to Hef too? Sexual misconduct by a physician has never been so hilarious.

THIS all day long. I would HATE to be a str8 man in today's world. A chick gets upset that she said yes and all of a sudden, your world is upside down and you're accused of something you NEVER DID! And "believe women" is a crock of BS!

It’s terrible. That’s why Rikers is overrun with preppy white inmates with bogus rape charges. 
 

Oh wait.

There’s a lot of unnamed patriarchy and misogyny going on in this discussion. 

Misogyny? On this thread?

I've said several times already that Hefner was gross.  I'm sure what his "girlfriends" went through was disgusting and even humiliating.  But from the very beginning, these women were free to walk away.  At any point in all the grossness, these women could have said "no" or "stop" and then left.  I keep asking for evidence that Hefner coerced them in any way, but so far nothing.

According to Izabella, if Hef wasn’t happy, they’re pack up your things and leave them on the curb the same day. So unless they had somewhere to go right away, they were more or less stuck.

CA law says you need to evict, which means giving 30 day notice.

I happen to have a book by one of the gfs in my Kindle. This was written around 2006, and it’s clear that the author, one Izabella St. James, was trying to stay in Hef’s graces. Judge for yourself. 

If she represents the situation correctly, I’d say it’s pretty close to the bounds of non-consent. 

Another passage says that the gfs had to ask for their weekly allowance. Hef gave them a hard time about it if they hadn’t performed well enough in the bedroom.

Everyone was taking Quaaludes in the 80s. Hardly shocking.

The gfs lived with Hef in the aughts.

Of course, if Hefner did anything to coerce these women, I would one thousand percent condemn his actions.  But in the absence of coercion, these women were free to walk away from all the alleged abuse and humiliation, or am I missing something?  If they suffered through it in hopes of money or fame, it must suck that it didn't pan out, but they're victims only of their own bad choices, not of the creepy pajama-clad geriatric.

I agree for the most part. There’s one complicating factor: According to two girlfriends, Hef gave the women quaaludes, which he referred to as “leg openers, ” before the twice-weekly “sex nights.” Some women took them while others hid them. 

But from what I gather, the women aren't claiming the didn't consent.

I don't know what "dark side" this docuseries will show, but I am frequently perplexed when some models complain about how they were treated after entering the world of pornography.  Attempting to limit someone's outside success is deplorable.  Forcing someone to have sex is deplorable.  But sometimes the complaints seem to be more akin to regret about having gotten involved in pornography.  Assuming the person was of legal age and sound mind to consent, their decision to enter the pornography business was their own. 

It was more than porn though. He had a Middle Easterm prince type harem going with curfews for the girls, hair color requirements etc. The idea was that he might make them Playmates and thus launch their careers. Men just don't tolerate that kind of thing. Can you imagine Geffen”s boyfriends agreeing to a curfew?

That said, the women consented. Holly Madison, who seems to play a major role in this series, tried to get Hefner to marry her.

I have no idea on how to find the hot guys on Instagram or TikTok.

More tutorials needed!

I have never ever looked at Instagram, Facebook or Twitter. I spend enough time on this site.

But do you occasionally sneak a peek at hot guy TikTok?

Whatever the name is, it has to be clear to someone searching for a site like this what the site is like, and discourage someone searching for something totally different (Rentboy was a superb choice for that). I am surprised that no one has suggested the obvious: the-men's-room. However, that would seem to exclude members like Fresh Fluff. I am wracking my brain trying to think of something accurate and easy to remember.

I think the benefit of a name that clearly describes the purpose of the site is worth the downside of excluding a few female members. 
 

I like “men’s room” but wonder if it makes people think of a cruising site rather than a place to discuss escorts?

Do you have to use your real name?
