I believe much of the data I posted is ‘23 and sooner. Looking forward to seeing you tonight for drinks 😉

Estimated HIV risk per exposure | aidsmap WWW.AIDSMAP.COM What are chances of getting HIV? This page gives HIV transmission rates associated with vaginal, anal...

You are discounting the impact of exercising care and vetting partners. The probability of transmission between an undetectable partner abd a partner not on prep is 0. So as Jethro Bodine would say “naught times naught is naught” 😉 But even if you assume some incremental risk, say .5%, the cumulative non linear risk is tiny. Sorry I’m on a plane without a calculator. I’m not disputing what you say. It looks like a lot over time when you use 1%, but when you use the actual probability, it’s infinitesimally small

I don’t think it works that way. The per-act risk doesn’t simply accumulate linearly — probabilities compound differently, and repeated exposures don’t guarantee infection even though the overall risk increases. Not all probabilities are cumulative in the way you describe.

I wasn’t exploring men at the time. But I had dinner with a friend who was with the LVPD at the time. He said it’s a scam. They would have spiked my drink with visine to trigger diarrhea and would have rolled me for all my cash and left me on the sidewalk with my pants around my ankles

Interestingly, we are in violent agreement. I often share (and require) recent proof of status if it’s someone I don’t know well. If they’re on ART, they have been tested recently and will have it. But still U=U, truthfulness is a different issue. You assume they’re lying, I’m simply verifying they’re telling the truth. From my view, as a top, the data is out there showing that the risk of a top getting HIV from a + bottom is still very low. Plus I have prep, doxy (which I’ve never been inclined to use yet), and I’m picky (I’m not professing pickiness is reliable though)

As opposed to Frankenstein style unnatural looking enhancements?

@nycman, I bet you 99.9% of the men over 20 on this forum have HPV. That’s why there’s no attempt to vaccinate us. Herpes is a risk that can be mitigated but not cured. The others can be treated and cured in the short term. Undetectable = Untransmittable. This is not disputed by immunologists. But PrEP and regular testing remain an effective tool to further mitigate theoretical risk. And @pubic_assistance, I agree with you completely. But my message to @Trebor is that, I believe that once he’s done his own research, he will find that he has no reason to fear or hesitate.

You’ve not said if you’re a top or a bottom. That makes a difference. You’ve not said if you’re on PrEP. That makes a difference But in general, Undetectable = Untransmittable. As indicated above, you’ll find comfort in the extensive research that’s out there

The first week, you probably were swamped with viewers from everywhere. Now it’s settling down. The guys above are giving you great feedback. Also find some buddies up there who have gone through the learning curve. You’ll figure out who you can trust for sound advice.

It’s a frequent occurrence in service and hospitality industries these day. I suspect that these are employers who have no engagement with their employees and they’re attracting employees who act similarly. The good ones are going where they have better work environments.

I’ve been there once in my life and it was on business. Having come from the eastern time zone and arriving at night, I hit the sack and arose at about 3AM. I was at the Bellagio and decided to walk down to the strip since the weather was perfect. Half way down the lush and curving sidewalk, I passed a young man and we made eye contact. Being southern, I politely say “Hey, how ya doin’” He replied “Great” “Beautiful night,” I responded Then he said “I have a limo and strippers, you can have tits in your face for breakfast” 🎉🍾 🤨 “Thank you,” I said, “but bacon and eggs will be fine!” 😎

Jackson is there.

@Austin Lewis to repeat what’s already been said, this is terrible. And, as the victim, you are not guilty. As to the FBI, as I understand it, presuming that you did this electronically, I believe that there’s not a response until it’s elevated by multiple related incidents. I don’t know if there is a common denominator in your report that could link it to others relating to him, but I believe you did the right thing.

🥱

Does eligibility matter anymore? 😳not a political statement 🧐just watching the news 😉

I’ve noted for years that kids of my friends are dying from both aggressive and obscure forms of stomach in their digestive areas - primarily stomach and colon. I never knew a kid with cancer growing up. And now I hear of teens/early 20’s getting these things regularly. One friend’s daughter of 20 - a beautiful girl that I watched grow up since she was adopted as a baby - just died several weeks ago breaking the hearts of all who knew her! These cases are not random and we have to do better at keeping the food chain clean and healthy.

Well, his number is in the profile. Perhaps we should all start texting him that extortion is going to land him in jail Here are comments from MrNumber. I’ve half a mind to fly down to Miami just to catch him and make him sweat…unfortunately, Florida is a two party consent state!

He did Santosyoung - Pornstar Performer, Rentboy, Gay Massage in Miami, FL | RentMen RENTMEN.EU Pornstar Performer & Rentboy in Miami, FL - Santosyoung: Santos

I’m not a lawyer. But if you ever paid him electronically, the it might be a federal case. If you communicated across state lines and/or on the RM pm platform, it may be as well

The extortionist preys on fear and the best defense is a more aggressive attack. If you know the person, act before they do. Better to “embarrass” yourself before law enforcement to quash the threat. They have considerably more to lose

I was careless last week and put myself in a position to receive “the” blackmail/extortion threat to be outed. He gave me 10 minutes and I told him to save himself the trouble and go ahead and not wait. Then I told him to go f himself and that I’m not concerned with rewarding the dregs of the cesspool with unjust enrichment. I may have even used some words he had to look up. But then, I’m willing and to be outed. Only two people in the world matter to me and one knows.

I knew Danny Evins, the founder. I’m certain he’s NOT rolling in his grave.

Details like this should be discussed in advance to assure expectations are in sync. If you can’t agree, don’t move forward. But if it’s a trip of a few days (as in, more than a weekend) I think some personal time - within reason - is reasonable for him to expect.

I subscribe to MrNumber. It’s not expensive. Get a short subscription to see if your number is clean
