I never had problems in my golden years. Fucking in the gym bathroom was a common occurrence, or in public bathrooms when I was walking the city and unexpected hookups would happen. The streets in Buenos Aires in the 80s and 90s were in flames. I would also say NYC streets in the 90s were an easy hunting territory. Nowadays I have no complains about street cruising. Last June I hoocked up two hotties in Buenos Aires, once in the subway and once in the street. I live in DC, and almost do not go out as much, but I bet you sex is as easy as it was when I was just arrived and very active, between 2002 and 2010.

Aren't the pictures self-explanatory?

I think it is a typo. He probably meant "not allowed".

Not having any problems. I just made a deep dive and actually liked it.

I think I have noticed more legit ads in Friendboys. I wonder whether or not clients are finally going to support the alternatives to RM. Before the pandemic, when I was still hiring in the US and supporting Friendboys and Mintboys as alternatives to RM, we got a lot of backlash here. A lot. Let's see what happens now.

@mike carey, there is no nail 😇

Absolutely yes. You are new in these forums and I had not noticed you before. My apologies, I had to double check. You are probably learning that not everyone here follows the rules of logics.

Let's keep hammering the same concept, perhaps finally you all get it. It's important to recognize that language can be highly subjective, and the meanings of words can vary from person to person. The way individuals identify with and understand terms related to their identity, such as "queer," can be deeply personal and may differ from one person to another. "Queer" is a term that has been reclaimed by many in the LGBTQ+ community, and it is often used as an inclusive and umbrella term to describe non-heteronormative sexual orientations and gender identities.

Would you say you are gay AND queer? Honest question, no snark here.

I am celebrating Fuckgiving in Medellín.

Until just a few days ago, this thread served as a special place where we could set aside our personal differences and come together, united by our shared humanity, our common fear of loss, and our collective anxiety about endings. I kindly urge those who wish to criticize or belittle someone that others in this group hold dear to please redirect your efforts to another thread. Let's preserve this space as a refuge where we can continue to connect on a deeper level. Please, please, please.

I agree with your first statement. About the second one, I think some have moved over there because we can discuss politics, others because of beefs with current and/or extinct moderators, but I do not know of anyone who moved over there because of political or points of views disagreement. I do not even think it is @unicorn's case. If he was looking for an echo chamber, he did not find one over there.

I am extremely glad to report that @Lookinis well enough to post in Gayguides.

THANK YOU for that! Some of the posters with plenty of time should recompile an anthology of his posts. So many were borderline with geniality! As a side note, now I am also missing Adam Smith, but I do know he passed during the pandemic. 🥲

Now I am also concerned about another of my favorite forum members: @Lookin His last login was on September 13th. I hope you are well! I miss your wisdom!

In general, I agree. However, when we make these arguments, we often misunderstand the meaning of hypocrisy. One thing is an imperfect human being that more or less often fails to live up to their own moral standards; and another thing is to live a life of double standards. Of course, my personal experience is only anecdotal information, but the many Catholic priests that I met and were having sex were all hypocrites on that matter. But someone who "occasionally" does things in secret that they wouldn't condone in public is not necessarily an hypocrite.

I do not think it is appropriate to discuss publicly anyone's HIV status.

Not only did he possess a remarkable memory, but he also exuded unwavering positivity and provided support to everyone he encountered. It's a rarity to find forum members who rise above cliques and political divisions as effortlessly as he did. While his public contributions may not have been groundbreaking, as you've mentioned, he had a knack for dropping concise yet valuable insights into discussions, often steering them in productive directions. However, his more extensive and generous communications typically unfolded in private messages. During my early days as a forum member and later as a blogger, he stood out as one of my most ardent supporters. I deeply regret not having had the opportunity to meet him and nurture a more profound friendship.

At this point I am assuming the worst. I am sad and will miss @BabyBoomer very, very much.

Indeed. However, those terms are not equivalent and do represent different understandings. I think discussing them is also discussing how we think about human sexuality.

And yet, my point stands.

Oh. So... because these "slurs" hurt you, you think they are hurtful to everyone else. I wonder what the thousands of academics working in Queer Studies Departments in universities worldwide would think about your fragility. Anyways, to quote a previous poster... Freak out!

Best come back ever.

Sometimes, we think it does not make sense when we do not understand something.
