Before I tasted a chicken pastilla, the thought of it disgusted me. Powdered sugar and cinnamon sprinkled on top of phyllo dough that contains chicken and chick peas, among various other things. I was a convert upon my first bite, though.

For some Only Fans creators, it is all about the tease and not delivering the goods. Just last week YouTube recommended that I watch a video of some guy who auditioned for American Idol wearing only a speedo earlier this year. I watched the video, thought the guy was hot and funny, and watched many more of his videos on YouTube. Through those I learned that while he doesn't want to label himself sexually, most of his sexual experiences have been with women (and of the contacts with men, I get the impression that he wasn't so much motivated to have the experience as he was manipulated by a photographer or something). He hangs out regularly with another guy who also presents himself as sexually fluid but who, went he gets into details, clearly is much more straight than gay. I watched someone review the first guy's Only Fans channel (one of those "I subscribed to XXX so you don't have to" videos) and learned that the page is mostly about teasing. Some nudity, but not much full frontal. Lots of homoerotic teasing but no actual sex. Thanks, but no thanks, is my response. When a guy who is a "creator" says something like needing to take time to figure out what their fans want, I call bullshit. Their fans want to see them naked and want to see them fuck. Maybe some guys really do just want to watch hot guys hang out naked or nearly naked, but I'm sure most guys actually want to see sex. If you don't want to deliver that, then I'm sure it DOES take time to think about how much titillating content you need to have to attract and maintain enough subscribers to make money, and maybe how to advance the content slowly towards more explicit content to keep thirsty fans hanging on hoping they will finally get what they want. I guess there is a market for this stuff or there wouldn't be so many people doing it, but I just don't get the appeal of very soft core porn.

It isn't my place to name other members or share their specific feedback, but since I started this thread one forum member PMed me to share that they hired him, enjoyed the experience enough to recommend him, but wasn't sure he'd repeat. So we know that his photos are real and that he delivered on what he advertises, but at least that person wasn't so enamored that he found a new regular. I know that happens for me a lot, though, so I don't think that leaving happy but not so happy that you want a repeat is a negative. It's just the lack of an overwhelmingly positive response.

Given that he says his training is outside of the U.S. and he isn't licensed to practice here, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and believe that he could practice as a psychologist in Brazil. If he were U.S. licensed, I'd tend to disbelieve him unless he wrote that he decided to forgive his license. The licensing boards for mental health professions are very strict in the U.S. and I don't see how someone could advertise any sort of erotic service and maintain their license. That being said, I know that some people like to pretend that they are mental health professionals when, in fact, they've simply taken some basic "life coach" training. Those people may be good at motivating basically functional people to go after their goals, but they are not equipped to deal with serious mental illness.

Not that I dislike the look -- I like it quite a lot, actually -- but it's interesting how limited the "look" is. If you look at the past winners circles, everyone has dark hair and everyone has a bit of skin pigmentation but not "too much" variation in either direction. No need to apply if you have dark or fair skin or if your hair isn't black. Sort of weird that an "international" competition seems so limited in terms of appearance.

I've never seen such a thing. $50 for 24 hours access? I know their personalized videos are horrible overpriced (I could hire someone to spend time in person with me for less than the cost of a customized video), but I've never seen a subscription rate that high. I also have never noticed a "gotcha" in terms of clicking on someone's profile. Most guys on OF show absolutely nothing unless you click that you want to subscribe, and unless you're asleep at the mouse it's pretty obvious you're subscribing for a certain amount of money. I suggest that if you want to browse a little, stick to Just For Fans. At least there when you check out someone to whom you haven't subscribed you are likely to see brief teaser video clips, video descriptions, the dates of page updates so you can see whether the guy is actively posting, and maybe some photos to give you an idea whether you want to subscribe. On Only Fans the only thing you have to go by is the number of videos the guy has uploaded; you might end up subscribing only to find out that the guy posts nothing but the same short clips he posts on Twitter (that happened to me once).

Doing Onlyfans makes more sense given what we know. If nycboi and his partners want to remain discreet, they can simply blur faces or make sure the camera isn't capturing them. That will surely eliminate some subscribers, but probably fewer than an escort having all of the limitations and requirements expressed in this thread.

If you receive your package, consider that a success. Right now in my condo building there are about a dozen packages misdelivered by a variety of carriers -- USPS, UPS, FedEx and Amazon's own delivery service. I used to try to track people down on social media to tell them their package had been misdelivered and offered that they could come by to pick it up, but it was happening so frequently that I was spending way too much time doing this and frequently wasn't able to find a way to contact people anyway. I also used to contact Amazon and they basically won't do anything else you are the person whose package was lost/stolen...they won't even request the driver to return to pick up a package they misdelivered only minutes ago! A call to other carriers results in the same thing -- a waste of time on the phone, sometimes an assurance that they will send someone out to pick up the package the next day, but the packages are never retrieved. So now they just sit there, accumulating dust until someone who lives here takes or discards them. I can somewhat understand Amazon not caring as it's probably easier for them to just send a replacement to the person whose package is lost once that person calls. Unless it's an expensive item they probably don't care about it. One would think the carriers would be more interested in making things right, though, since I assume they end up paying insurance claims on stuff that goes missing because they delivered it to the wrong address. Maybe I'm wrong about that, though. I can understand misdelivering a package for a similar address, but sometimes the street number and street name have no similarities, and the deliver address isn't even in the same neighborhood. Quite shoddy work on the part of all of these carriers, and this isn't limited to this time of year when shipping volume is higher.

If a friend or family member of the deceased stumbled across that page, I'm sure they would quickly figure out what the site's about and stop reading. I guess that's to say that I doubt it's causing much harm to those people. It certainly isn't causing the level of harm that the deceased promoted when they were alive, so I don't have much of an issue that this site exists. It does seem to be more about celebrating some people's deaths rather than educating anyone. That being said, the people who are firmly anti-vax aren't going to be convinced by anything posted on a website that doesn't already align with their point of view.

I've never flaked on a provider. I have had a few providers fail to show up at my place at the agreed upon date/time who then never responded to my texts/voice messages asking what happened. A couple of times I have gone to hotels and called providers, as instructed, to either get the room number or have them come meet me in the lobby only to be ghosted. It's horrible that there are game players on both side of the equation. As someone else posted, this also happens in the online dating world. Some people just like being assholes.

Definitely the money for me as well. I was actually trying to find a way to redo this question that would tip the balance towards having sex with five famous men, and I think it would have to be this: I still get to choose 5 famous men, but I get to have sex with one of them every month for the rest of my life. Assuming one lives another 20 years that would still be about $4,166 per encounter, but maybe that would be worth it to be with a fantasy man every month until I die. I'd still probably take the money, but I imagine there might be more takers of the 5 men if it involved more than 5 encounters.
-
I'm not a provider, but... Seriously, I get why many providers wouldn't want to participate here, at least not under a screen name that can be associated with their escort persona. Some providers, such as yourself, have participated here without creating a negative image of yourself. There are others who have turned me off as a prospective client by being patronizing or contemptuous towards clients.

I'm surprised that no one has hired this sexy young man, or at least that no one has hired him and posted anything about their encounter here.

I know someone who tested the waters about 20 years ago. I'm sure he did have oral and/or anal sex with his clients, but his main selling point was being a sadist. He got quite a lot of clients who were simply looking for a good dom. He decided he didn't much enjoy it, so he pulled his ad quickly and had to keep turning down clients for a couple of weeks. Back to the notion that you can charge $250/hour from guys you find hot enough to bed for free but when you meet them and take their money you won't kiss or have sex with them, I say "Good luck with that." 🤪

The Saddest Little Boy In The World. In case you haven't seen this hilarious short (yes, I have a dark sense of humor), here's a brief description from the dvd listing on Amazon: Timothy Higgins is having his worst year ever. Always picked last for the team, this eight-year-old lives in a world of friendlessness, suburban complacency and prescription drugs. Now his ninth birthday party has arrived, and he prepares to upstage the musical chairs and birthday cake with a show-stopping suicide.

I'm a little confused. I thought this was one of those sites where videos are already being shared for free without copyright holder's consent/knowledge. I mean, their terms make it seem like they either own the videos themselves or that users are posting content they are legally allowed to share, but there's obviously a lot of studio porn there that's frequently posted without properly identifying itself as such. I doubt Bel Ami is obscuring its logo and posting its content for free with no studio or model names displayed. If they are keeping track of downloads, it's more than likely due to them wanting to prevent too much bandwidth being used by a single IP address in any given period.

Given access? Isn't it still possible to view this site without even logging in?

Falling in love with a woman, has it happened to any of you too?
maninsoma replied to Merboy's topic in The Lounge
I'm definitely a 6 (or at least 5.9) on the Kinsey scale. I've never been into women sexually even though I was much more comfortable with girls/women than boys/men in my teens. But I've never felt a yearning to be with a woman sexually. I can recognize a beautiful woman, but I am not sexually aroused by her. I see a handsome man and I want to put my legs behind my head. 😁 I occasionally like to watch straight porn and am never turned on by the women, even the beautiful ones. In fact, if the scene focuses too much on the woman (and, naturally, a lot of straight porn does) and I don't get to see enough of the man's face and body I will lose interest. I'm watching it for the men after all. I do think that most people are between a Kinsey 0 and Kinsey 6, though. In other words, most people are probably bisexual but it just isn't discussed much because of societal pressure. It doesn't really matter, though, what most people are. If you are attracted to someone, explore it. -
No. That's why I put quotation marks around that word in my reply. I hope my intention came across: While I am not doubting the OP's genuine belief that he's making an offer to help someone he perceives as in need, the whole thing just makes me uncomfortable since it's presented not only as commercial transaction (importing versus someone immigrating) but also the underlying assumptions are rather patronizing. That's why I suggested to flip the script to see how he would feel about being offered such a scenario if the tables were turned. Unless I was in very dire circumstances I would, at best, view this as a naive but well intentioned offer and, at worst, highly insulting -- as if I needed to be rescued by someone who lives in a more affluent country without much thought given to how disruptive that would be to my life.

I want to see a graph or chart from Kevin Slater showing the breakdown of how the $1,000 would be spent/invested.

I like cilantro such much that I typically request extra cilantro when ordering a burrito. It's an important component of a good pico de gallo, and adds a lot to some southeast Asian cuisines. What would a banh mi be without it? I've never understood the "tastes like soap" complaint, so maybe that it just a genetic variation where some people perceive cilantro's flavor that way.

I wouldn't. I generally dislike tattoos, but especially those on the face, neck and fingers.

How many forum members who aren't escorts have had free hookups with porn stars? I would think not many. Even in my younger days I didn't hook up with any porn stars and I lived in San Francisco; then again, I was more of a relationship kind of guy, not out looking for a lot of hookups.

Well, at least your tastes are consistent. You've asked about this guy before a few times in relation to his massage ad which uses the name BodyworkbyWill. At least I assume it's the same guy since the phone numbers are the same. There does seem to be a fair amount of feedback on the forum under his escort name, starting a few years ago; not sure if you searched for Warren Parker or simply looking for someone who hired him more recently.
