There's room for both in your wardrobe!

In high school and colleague, I taught swimming lessons for seven years. Advantages to learning to swim while wearing a brief cut (a/k/a Speedo), lycra square cut, or jammers are: As previously mentioned, swim trunks made from other materials can absorb the water and weigh one down. Other cuts from bulkier material may limit ones range of motion while trying to learn the various strokes. Wearing close fitting suits made of lycra or nylon allow the novice swimmer to better learn the feel of the water. Other, loosely fitting styles may "balloon" in the water, especially those with pockets. This additional drag makes it more difficult for people to move through the water. Quite frankly, many are designed for fashion and not function. Being distracted by trunks that are not staying in place because they don't have the functioning drawstrings that stay tied often hinders the quality of the lesson.

Thanks - I struggled finding the right example. Years ago, I had an employee leave the company when her husband got a new job in Kankakee. It was very fun to say out loud and every since it has been something I say to myself any time I want to smile.

I had forgotten how quick witted Carson can be.

And you didn't let me know this was going on?

Sugaring replaces the waxing process, which uses artificial ingredients that can be harsh on the skin. The result of smooth and soft skin without the use of potentially harmful irritating chemicals.

@hwic04, in my experience, overnight appointments are not much different than weekend appointments. The difference is there's a little less time to get the know the guys you are spending time with. In my overnights, they have usually included dinner. They don't always include morning activities. I do think amount of play time will vary based on whether you are planning a week night or weeknd appointment. Many guys with jobs outside of escorting may indicate they need x hours of sleep to be ready for the office the next day.

I didn't have the chance to spend any 1:1 time with Damian in Palm Springs, but I did enjoy sitting across the table from him at dinner one evening. An absolutely lovely man.

What happens when we're at 69%? 😉

Sorry - that won't happen again!

In the meantime, I hear the Jeopardy! theme song running through my mind waiting for the tally!

What a great line!

@JeffThom - With other things in life, do you jump into the deep end right away, or do you tend to take small steps? I tend to be risk adverse. When I decided to act on my attraction to men (at age 44), I started with an erotic massage as it felt that it would not be a big risk. Back then advertisements on the massage sites were less restricted, and the guy I hired listed his services as 45 minutes of massage followed by 15 minutes of oral play. I decided that was enough to dip my toe in the water. For me, just having another naked man in the room who was touching me was wonderful. And the oral play made it even better. After that massage I was comfortable taking the next steps.

I will provide the third endorsement. I try to see him on each visit I make to Ft. Lauderdale.

This and the guys that are flabbergasted when a masseur advertises therapeutic massage only and only has one face photo and is disappointed that other services are not offered.

Hopefully this thread answers you question, Scott. Working on a new review site - Features & Feedback - M4M Forum (m4m-forum.org)

In my experience, I've seen Ask Me when the masseur offers a 90-min massage in addition to a 60-min massage. I've asked and been told that he's had potential clients expect the 60-min rate to be the 90-min rate, so it was easier to list the rates as Ask Me.

I think of some of the athletes that compete in "Olympic" sports such as swimming, track, wrestling, etc. and the relatively short window of opportunity compared to athletes competing in higher-profile sports such as football and basketball. For those individuals graduation (or the next Olympics) is often the end of their competitive careers and the opportunity to ink an endorsement deal is gone.

As an overweight client, I always disclose my weight to a potential masseur or escort. I've found providers care less about my physique and more about cleanliness. I've never had any provider explicitly decline me for my weight. I assume that a provider that replies with a message, "I am not available" at the time requested without suggesting an alternative appointment option are politely saying "Something in the information you have provided does not meet my standards. Look elsewhere."

It looks to me that there is a little bit of rounding in the presentation of the numbers. I put them in my calculator (does anyone do long-hand divvision any more?) and my results are presented in a blue font. US death rate 2020 = 3.358M vs. population US 2019 328.2M = .01 death rate = 1.02% US death rate 1984 = 2.039M vs. population US 1983 233.8M = .01 death rate = 0.87% The rate of death in 2020 would be 15 basis points higher than in 1984.

@gilbert I've not received an Webroot warnings from this site. Just a hypothesis here. Since you have been away for several months, you may not know that we've migrated to a new URL: www.companyofmen.org. If you used the old website address to log in today, behind the scenes it redirects you to our new site. I know I've received Webroot warning on other sites with this redirect. Next time you log in try using the new site address.

The site follows a similar routine other sites built for fraud. (a) Notice that the website never mentions his location. (b) Why does a massage site have an entire section for "Types of Fraud?" Trying too hard to convince the reader that this isn't a fraud? (c) The terms and conditions section only states that your information is safe and secure. Usually T&C talk about what the user of the services is agreeing to.

I like this approach. Don't avoid him. I would go to the gym tomorrow for your regular workout and suggest the coffee when you bump into him.
