He is on my shortlist of providers to see. I would even make a trek to Seattle specifically to attend one of his workshops (with maybe some 1-1 time with him after). His Twitter videos check all of my boxes!

Growing up, I was always insecure about my nipples, because they protrude from just about any shirt I can find. Now, I think of it as free advertising 😃

This is the scene:  https://www.gayforit.eu/video/19992/rob-cryston--mike-lamas  The money shot is around 9:25.

This is an extended clip, though the quality is worse.  It contains a mini-interview with Rob, though it's hard to hear because the music is so loud:  https://www.gayforit.eu/video/160118/ROB-CRYSTON

THAT'S THE ONE!! Exactly as I remember it--thank you for sharing!

I think I know exactly the clip you're talking about (but also don't know where it came from). When Mike came, he shot all over Rob's chin, and it kind of dangled there in strings as Rob continued to suck him off. I can't count the number of times I've jerked off to that clip in my younger day

In most ways, my situation has largely stayed the same pre- and post-COVID (finances, social, personal, etc.) with one MAJOR difference (on the plus side): I now work exclusively from home. This has been something I've wanted my entire career, and it was only because of COVID that I got it, and honestly, it really is everything I thought it would be. Possibly even better!

I have wanted one since I was 18, and even knew what I wanted it to be, but was never brave enough to take the leap. At 40 a few years ago, I got my very first one (well, two, one on each arm). Ironically, it wasn't even the thing I've wanted for decades, but I love it nonetheless. Even when it's covered and no one can see it, I like knowing it's there. I may actually get what I've been wanting at some point

Honestly, I didn't recall this post; it seems to be a recurring theme in my life. Currently, I'm in a long-term relationship where my partner's income is considerably less than mine. While he offers to contribute to household expenses, I consistently decline, reassuring him there's no need to worry. However, I've been contemplating the idea that he could cover specific expenses or perhaps create a "going out" fund. For instance, for every $100 he contributes, I could contribute $300, or a similar arrangement. I'm interested in learning from those in long-term relationships with income discrepancies how they have navigated situations like this.

I think the percentage or "ratio" allocation is a really good way to go. When my partner and I bought our first home together, we sat down and took a long look at all our finances and figured that I made about 65% of our total household income. We then figured out what our monthly expenses would be (including everything averaged out over the course of the year, like property taxes and insurance). With that number in hand, we took 65% of the total, and that's how much I contributed, and he contributed 35%. We've been adjusting it every so often since, and it's never been a problem. 

This was the first bathhouse I ever visited back in the early 2000s. On a random one-night stop in Vegas shortly after turning 21, I found what was then-called the Apollo Spa online. Had my misgivings given its location in a rundown strip mall, but had a great time. It was on a Tuesday evening or something, and there were maybe 4 or 5 people in there. Ended up chatting with this super nice, older guy for the better part of an hour. He wasn't my type, and I clearly wasn't his, so it was really just good conversation. I was happy to have left after we finished chatting, but caught the eye of a buff, blond stud who had just come in. Ended up blowing him before I left.

Never went back, but always think about it fondly. 😃

Better yet, if you're able to blow a load from getting oral, you can take that skill to the bank.

 

Wow, I can just about always do that, and didn't realize I was sitting on a goldmine! 😃

In my limited experiences (as I've also been interested and did quite a bit of research), the general consensus seems to be to start with just testosterone, at an amount that would put you up to the 1500 range, then layer on top of that. Testosterone seems to have the least potential for side effects, depending on your personal chemistry, and it should be monitored with baseline and periodic labs. From there, maybe something like anavar/deca/tren, but like others have said, injectables seem to be the way to go in all cases

Prone masturbation never worked for me, as something about the friction would irritate things down there. Sort of a variation on prone, though, is that I've started to get into being milked--getting on my hands and knees and having it my dick get pulled between my legs and jerked off. Sometimes, I can be all the way prone and cum that way, which is intense as it is, but also slightly painful, which makes it even more so

One of my favorite positions, actually, and the one I can always get my husband off with. The angle and depth in this position basically means there's less in and out, and more just a constant massaging of my prostate, and that about does it for both of us!

Totally agree!! He has my ideal body--what I think of as "casually muscular" as opposed to the more intimidating bodybuilder type

Latest A1C is 4.9 (keeps decreasing?), fasting insulin is 6.4 but WTH.  If the side effects kill me, we'll try something else. 

Isn't 4.9 really good for an A1c value?

As someone who used to live in SoMa, I had always thought that the City, and that neighborhood in particular, was constantly on the cusp of a renaissance. I missed what some might call the glory(hole?) days of SoMa when all the leather bars and sex clubs were in full swing, but when Twitter moved into mid-Market, and then a bunch of other tech companies followed suit, I thought it was a decent alternative--at least there was more going on in terms of restaurants, coffee shots, etc. I think we all know what happens next, and I'll admit I've lost quite a bit of that optimism.

FWIW, I saw him some time ago pre-pan, and it was a great experience. Very "interactive" with lots of body contact. He seems to be friendly enough, though that was not the most memorable part of the encounter.

Just a couple of old threads with no real information. Interested to try him, mostly for therapeutic/light sensual purposes, and he seems to be legitimately trained, so I wanted to see if anyone who's hired him could share more details?

Thanks!

Some time ago, in an effort to get me in a better position, my husband lifted my legs up over my head to rim me. It got me so close that just a few strokes sent me over the edge, and I ended up cumming all over my own face. Totally accidental, but one of the best discoveries we've made in recent history. 😃 

My first foray into sensual massage (not even erotic), was when I had flipped over, draped and still in my underwear but obviously excited, and the provider asked, "Would you like more neck work or switch to sensual work?"

Um, sensual please... 😃

When I got to that photo of the bulging jock strap, I felt like I could smell the testosterone

Saw him many years ago, way pre-pandemic, but it was a great experience. Good massage from a therapeutic perspective, and the rest was pretty incredible as well. He looked just like his photos from back then, and it looks like he updated them recently after getting a bit beefier. Wasn't super talkative, but nice enough guy, I thought!

I've never experienced this before (and not for a lack of trying). Massaging it always feels good (either me doing it, someone else, fingers, toys, etc.) but I don't think I've reached the point of what could be called an orgasm. Must be something I'm missing!!

For me, at the top of a list like this would be Cheyenne Jackson. On paper, he checks all of my boxes (even with a singing voice that melts butter), but there's just something that turns me off. I'm sure he's a lovely person, but I detect an air of smarminess about him, I guess...

There's a company in the Bay Area called Virta Health that specializes in using low-carb diets (keto, specifically) in order to reverse diabetes. Looks like their research team has a 5-year study in place showing pretty good results.

I wouldn't say my experience was recent (right before the pandemic), but back then, he had a nice beefiness about him, and the massage, which began therapeutically (probably more sensually, actually), did veer into the erotic. He was fully nude and made full body contact, which was really nice. He definitely knew how to work it!
