If we're talking sheets, I love Brooklinen's classic percale. I want my bedding crisp and as cool as possible. https://www.brooklinen.com/collections/sheets/

Waiting for the comeback announcement in 3... 2... 1...

No gingers? Who the fuck are these heathens?!?

MyPillows are not worth the scratch. They frequently have a 2-for-1 deal and I once went for it. The biggest positive: They wash well. The negative? It's the fill they use: It's little, ball-like pieces of fluff. Odd sensation getting used to sleeping on it. They moved to the guest bed in less than a month. I found success with Casper pillows. They are fantastic: https://casper.com/pillows/

Benjamin Nicholas I don't care what they say about me, as long as they spell my name correctly

When someone goes as far as to describe the minutiae of what you're wearing, how your hair is combed, the freckles on your face or what brand of bag you're carrying, I find that a little awkward. Not sure that's how it went with Victor, but it's happened to me... And it's the wrong way to introduce yourself in a first email.

Sorry to sidetrack this thread, but what the actual fuck is wrong with people that they... WITHOUT MEDICAL SCHOOL TRAINING... would not vaccinate their children? Every 'study' done that's said there might be a connection has been debunked. I can't wrap my head around not protecting your child, as well as now seeing the resurgence of diseases that should have been eradicated in the States.

Sounding the alarm? Nope. My post was just describing the usual equation of how things go around these parts. I was really more complimenting/commenting on the kid's ability to keep ya'll talking... And that he does

I completely agree. What's most scary is that so many guys are carriers, but never develop it. Gardasil isn't being pushed hard enough for young males, as it's mainly seen at the moment as a way to prevent cervical cancers in women. I do hope they can expand on the existing vaccination to include a wider age group: This would also mean needing more conclusive system of testing for HPV (for males, especially). https://www.cancer.org/cancer/cancer-causes/infectious-agents/hpv/hpv-and-hpv-testing.html

So, I shouldn't tell the adoption agency my plans?

Yes. ... But mainly to have someone to do dishes, make the bed and take out the trash.

In today's political climate, no, you're not crazy for worrying. If I were a minority of any sort, I'd be looking over my shoulder a lot more these days. I'd disclose and if someone gives you an ounce of pushback, move on. Some people are assholes and it's better you know who they are and ultimately not have to deal with them.

FYI: Don't confuse the Kspas as places to openly fuck around... They are usually known for allowing local PD to run sting operations. The Spa Castle brand (in Dallas and NY) is awesome, but they openly patrol their locker rooms and wet areas. Sure, you can go and look at all the naked men you want, but it's pretty tough to hook up. Love the Korean spa culture: You gotta be naked in the wet areas. It's incredibly relaxing and I'd recommend a visit to anyone who hasn't tried one.

I always chuckle when younger guys 'ewwww' at a bathhouse discussion. As if them being on Grindr for 4 hours a night is any better or different. At least in a bath, you can directly see what you want, skip (some) of the bullshit and just have some fun.

This side note probably should have been kept between the two of you.

I quietly wondered how long it would take for this new 'persona' to jump the shark. It's nice to see the ability to spot a dupe hasn't diminished around here

You're also making the assumption that filmed porn is anything like real life sex or sex between an escort & client.

I'd vote no if it were your first time out. Personally, I wouldn't want anyone profiting (for years) off my image without paying residuals. One-and-done ain't my ideal business model Since you already have scenes out there, if this adds to the coffers and could continue to do so in the future, go for it.

Yes, people talk to each other. No, it's not awkward. Not unless you want it to be. Safe sex, like in most aspects of life, is an individual decision. Most decent baths provide a ton of protection, gratis. The best bath in the States is Steamworks Chicago: Clean, huge, beautiful gym, great looking clientele and the perfect environment for getting in and getting off.

It was only a matter of time before this thread took an ugly turn: If you've been here long enough, you know the drill. I like the style of this kid... He's got moxie. And, based on him not having US citizenship, I imagine he's only got a finite amount of time to cash in. Good for him for having the keen business sense to strike while the iron is hot. And frankly, threads like this one are helping keep that iron very warm

I think it all depends on the situation and surrounding. I've had guys interrupt me in the middle of eating or a set in the gym to ask me 'if I'm so-and-so.' If they've really made it awkward, I just say 'sorry, no' and move on.

There's also something to be said for what guys do when they bump into an escort in reality: Do they look but leave him alone, do they quietly approach him or do they make a scene. I've had all three happen before.

Thankfully, the kid is smart enough to make him use condoms *thumbs up*
