It’s hard to respond to this without being political so all I’ll say is that the coming recession could be the worst most of us have seen in our lifetimes. For some, the devastation has already begun. I agree with @sync that it’s going to be global.

If they’re not already on it, let’s add “bae,” “boo,” “Cali,” and the expression “baby mama” to the list.

I admire your honesty!

You look like such a hunk, I just wanted to be sure.

Oooh. Didn’t know that. Thanks!

New to this thread. Feet do nothing for me but a muscled hairy leg…

When I read responses or see messages from CoM members I sometimes wonder “is that what he looks like?” So it’s confession time: if your profile photo is of a full or partial human body, fully, patially, or unclothed, is the photo really you? I’ll start: Yes, my profile photo is really me.

Wow. Count me in! Not.

When I first started hiring masseurs, I went with MF because it seemed a little less frightening to a newbie. I wasn’t sure what would happen during the session and though I hoped for some sort of sensual services, I wasn’t sure I was ready for a masseur who advertised “erotic” the way providers used to on RMass. In a sense, MF was “introductory.” Once I got comfortable, I branched out to RMass and now that’s pretty much where I look first. If I were a provider, I would advertise on MF to draw newbies in with the hope that they’ll become regular customers. I would also advertise on RMass at the same time.

I didn’t know he was still alive. Good looking guy.

that’s kind of where I’ve been—not watching any of them. Just wondered whether I should try watching them to keep up with popular culture.

A still photo of a hole doesn’t move me, but a video of a masseur rubbing a guy’s hole as the guy’s hips rise up to invite more is a huge turn-on.

All I can say is that if I were the bottom and the top was going to be pounding away for hours, I’d better have a good sightline to the TV, access to the remote, and a good movie that I can watch. If I were the top, well, I would be done long before the end of the first hour.

I’m glad to see you highlight the focus on hotness vice skill. Give me a masseur who is skilled over an amateur Adonis any day. The focus on client hotness is equally problematic. A hot client may not be appreciative and could be a dead fish on the massage table.

(Mods: This is intended to be a non-political post. I hope it is okay) I’m wondering how providers and clients feel about the future of the hobby if they’re in areas that are heavily dependent on federal workers who may lose their jobs or whose agencies may shut down or be relocated. As a resident of the DC area, I see people being laid off and the likelihood that disposable income for many will diminish. Will providers go back to their former professions, lower prices to pull in whatever clients they can, or continue as normal? Will clients stop hiring? Or is no one particularly concerned?

I thought so too. The asparagus stalk was too skinny but the head looked realistic 😂 Given the topic, he probably could have used a dildo…

Thank you. Very enlightening! I’ll never look at asparagus the same way again….

Thanks. As opportunities present themselves I find the freedom I can. It may be a couple of hours at a time with someone behind closed doors, but the momentary satisfaction keeps me going.

Honesty isn’t possible.

I saw him a number of times before he left Damascus. He gives a good massage and I’d go back if he was closer. PM me if you want additional details.

Thank you very much for the support. I found this community and man-on-man massage later in life and it has given me the opportunity to learn from men who enjoy other men, as well as first-hand experience physical pleasure with other men. I wish I had discovered both earlier but I’m glad I eventually took the jump.

Enough to grab hold of and have the head sticking out above my fist.

And how does science say such manhood should be measured? I myself prefer the measure-from-where-the-hard-cock-meets-the-the-balls method but others say otherwise.

Unfortunately, most of the fantasies I have, I also *want* to happen but they can’t without causing significant irreparable damage to my life. As a married (to a woman) man, I could never pursue them. My biggest fantasy right now is going to Palm Springs weekend and being surrounded by men who just want to be together, experience pleasure, and be free. And some of them will be naked, including me. It’ll never happen.

I usually book several weeks in advance so I can plan my expenditures. Since I only book massage and only once per month, I can usually set aside the money. Other than good bourbon, it’s my only luxury expense so I make it a priority.
