Since my comment from over a year ago just got a reaction from someone, I checked out this thread again and thought I would add this into the mix (though it's probably not "news" to anyone here): Some people can have a pretty active substance habit and not show outward signs of that if you're not with them 24/7. With that I'd say this: If you absolutely don't want to be with someone who might be using something when you're with them, then it's probably wisest to avoid providers whose ads list PNP since I don't see any reason why someone would include that in his ad unless he's at least open to the possibility of mixing drugs and sex.

Makes sense to me. I think your description of your fantasy as a "big slutty party" made me think you were hoping to arrange an orgy.

I have no advice, but just something to clarify during your research: Are you looking for guys who will only be expected to dance in a Speedo or thong or something, or are you looking for guys who do more than that? Also, are you planning to pick up the entire tab for your guests' entertainment or is the notion that guests could negotiate their own deals for "private dances?"

Chef Geoffrey Zakarian was 61 when this video was posted. Yes, some guys remain lean and muscular as they age. That's always been true. If we're going to make a "what men look like today versus yesterday" type of argument, I think we'd have to be honest to say that the average man is in worse shape now than 30+ years ago.

I was initially sympathetic with you but I don't understand why you'd find this odd. You found the guy on an escort/masseur site, yet you think it sounds odd that he indicated he expects to be paid and wonder if he's trying to monetize his sex life? I'd say he's an escort who is poor at planning in advance for whatever reason, thus he's failed to follow through on what you thought were firm appointments. Then he's reached out to you when he's available in the moment because he views you as a prospective client and he's ready to work at that time. I don't find anything unusual about this, but I do agree that it's disappointing that some people aren't just able to say that they don't want to schedule advance appointments so it's clear that it only makes sense to attempt to book them when you are ready for an appointment within the next hour or two.

I'd suggest that asking in that manner is probably not the best anyway. A lot of men who have sex with other men on the "down low" would likely still check the "straight" box. That being said, I do think it's helpful for health care providers to know about their patients' sexual practices since different screenings/tests might be indicated. I specifically chose a gay doctor decades ago because I wanted someone with personal familiarity of health risks for men who have sex with men. My previous doctor was okay, but he basically acted like my sex life didn't exist. What I find interesting is that every time I see any provider at Kaiser Permanente (apart from maybe eye doctors) I am asked questions regarding alcohol use and domestic violence.

I don't think that many twinks actually become twunks. As a twink ages and gets more muscular, he will just be a muscular man (jock, stud, hunk, etc) but no longer a twink. I know some delusional gay guys like to think they are twinks past their mid 20s, but to me a twink (and therefore twunk, which is just a muscular twink) is someone from 18 through early to mid 20s. As an example, by the time Brent Corrigan put on muscle he was well past being a twink.

My now deceased father had a younger wife who helped him as he aged and got more health issues. He was able to remain living in a private residence with her until the last couple of months of his life. One of my exes' parents moved into an assisted living community in their 80s. The wife (who needed more assistance) wanted this but the husband was reluctant. Once he was there, however, he was happy as a clam since living in a community setting allowed him to make a lot of friends. I never visited where they lived, but it sounded like a good situation to me. They had their own townhouse with the ability to be as independent as they wanted to be (e.g., cook their own meals instead of going to a dining hall), but obviously support was available to those who wanted or needed it. While I've long thought that a Golden Girls type of situation would be a fun way to live my older years, as I approached that age I began to see all of the potential downfalls. An actual assisted living community sounds a lot more appealing than living in a private residence with a few friends.

That's the real issue. I have a laptop from 2015 that I haven't even modified that generally still meets my needs. The one problem is that its CPU isn't whitelisted to work with Windows 11, so Microsoft is basically making it obsolete by ceasing support for Windows 10 later this year. I'm sure it will still work for at least a while, albeit at increased security risk when going online.

Looks roided out to me. Along with being "straight," the hostility might just fit into some clients' fantasies.

I've only been sore once, and the guy I was with was girthy and pounding me hard.

Want to hear an even stranger story? I had a masseur delete a review that was actually positive, at least in my mind. The only thing that I could imagine that rubbed him the wrong way is that I wrote that he was so attractive that it was a bit difficult for me to relax and fully enjoy the massage. I guess he somehow thought that was either a back-handed compliment or bothered him in some other way, but I didn't contact him to ask why he had my review removed. The guy still advertises using the same photos he used nearly 20 years ago, so maybe I should give him another go. He likely wouldn't recognize me and I probably won't feel as intimated even if he still looks good.

I guess I'm still unclear what you seek to get out of DMing a guy like this. Is it just the fantasy of having an online conversation with a hot guy? If so, as indicated above you may very well not be exchanging messages with the guy in question anyway. I've always ignored attempts to lure me into conversations on Only Fans. There's one guy I used to subscribe to who was relentless with come ons like, "I know it's late, but what are you up to right now?" Like the guy really wanted to know what I was up to.

In addition to that, the point I was trying to make is that there's no clear indication this guy is even available for hire. I think it's important for prospective clients to remember that just because someone has an IG or OF page doesn't mean they are available for meetings.

My first thought is what makes you think he's actually willing to provide in person meetings? Unless he has an ad on Rentmen or the like or somehow has a coded wording on his Only Fans or Instagram pages that indicate he is willing to meet men for hire, then he's actually offering the service he's advertising: You can ogle his pictures on Instagram and you can ogle even more explicit content on Only Fans. Just because he says he "answers" messages on OF doesn't mean he's answering them to arrange meetings with men.

Different strokes for different folks. I'm not a big fan of the "jacked" look. I much prefer muscular and toned but not so muscular that it looks like the guy uses steroids. For example: Stu during his Sean Cody days was perfection. Stu after he left porn to do bodybuilding was much less attractive to me, though I assume those who like the latter type of physique think his looks improved immensely.

I am not intending to minimize rape, but what you are describing is exactly what some clients are looking for: pay a massage rate and end up getting full service. As someone who wouldn't mind a hot masseur fucking me, I'd draw the line for myself as this: If a guy moves fast and aggressively, basically forcing himself into me without any communication from me that I'm turned on by him and would want that, not only would that not excite me but I would consider that rape. If the guy is escalating the eroticism and eventually starts playing with my hole, spreading my legs apart, getting on top of me, etc, etc -- then if I don't communicate in some way that I'm not comfortable with how far things are going, how is a masseur supposed to know that if he enters me I am going to consider it rape? I'm sending out lots of non-verbal cues that I'm liking what's going on. I know, I know: verbal communication is paramount and it would be best if the masseur asked if he could enter the client's ass before doing so, but at some point the notion that every step of the way needs verbal consent takes the fun out of the experience.

Yes, that guy has basically nothing to add to the discussion and yet he's created and posted several videos where he discussed Austin Wolf. I'm guessing he's just hoping that will bring him views to help with his monetization, but after watching one or two of his videos why would anyone watch another?

Your post reminds me of the quirky film "Repo Man" which has a lot to recommend it, especially a scene where a very becoming Emilio Estevez is wearing tighty whities. (Scroll to around 1:30 in the attached video to see him remove his pants.) At any rate, generic food and drink products like the ones you mention play a prominent roll in several scenes in the movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrRN5UZm2Cg

Cereal has to be one of the most ridiculously priced categories in grocery stores. Even the store brands tend to be overpriced for what they are, but the name brands are absolutely ridiculously priced. Why should a product that's basically processed wheat, corn, oats or rice cost $8 or more per pound when the cost of the grain is so much less? At any rate, eating oats is much more healthful and one can get Bob's Red Mill for at least 50% less $$$ at a grocery store (and save even more money at Costco).

I definitely have preferred brands, but usually not a single brand. For example, if I'm buying ice cream there are many brands I find acceptable so I will buy, for example, Haagen Dazs when it's on sale versus a more expensive specialty brand. Better yet, if I just want a basic flavor then Trader Joe's has good vanilla, mint chip, and coffee ice creams (and sometimes specialty flavors like ube) at every day prices that are similar to sale prices for Haagen Dazs. I do prefer Heinz ketchup so I will likely buy that even if another brand is less expensive when I need to buy it. Oddly, my favorite cola is actually Safeway's private label variety but given that Safeway has jacked up their prices for everything I can typically find Coca Cola (my next preferred brand) for less at other stores.

Yeah, unless the most damning evidence we've read about isn't allowed to come in during a trial, there's no way he'd get a better outcome with a jury.

Something doesn't add up. SSDs aren't cheap and I doubt anyone would sell any system, refurbished or not, with a 14TB SSD for under $200. Are you sure it didn't say 1.4 TB SSD? Even with that size of a drive, the price you got seems very low considering it has an i7 chip, 32GB of RAM, and an optical drive. If you received it and everything works as it should, I'd say you got a great deal.

Your post reminds me of a conversation I had with a straight woman in a gay bar about 20 years ago. She was complaining about giving head and asked me why I liked it. I simply replied that one has to get in touch with their inner cock whore, to allow oneself to truly feel the desire for cock. While she was amused by my response, I could tell it didn't really resonate with her. I just think she didn't really like cock.

In my early 20s, I liked to collect stuffed animals. Judgment from some friends caused me to get rid of most of them. I still have my teddy bear from when I was a baby. He's in bad shape but he's not going anywhere until I'm gone. It isn't like I pull him out to look at him or touch him -- in fact, I kind of had forgotten I still had him until I recently rediscovered him in my closet. The only other stuffed animals I still have is a set of Teletubbies, and I bought those in my early forties after the whole "Tinky Winky is a gay role model corrupting our youth" nonsense made headlines.
