Acknowledging a bias allows a person to choose whether they want to be used by the bias or not.

A doc who really knows the diagnosis and procedure codes can work magic with insurance carriers.

They write off the cost as long as insurance pays most of it. They wouldn't write off the cost if insurance had only covered a small portion of the cost. You are fortunate if you have insurance that covers labs for HRT.

I agree with you that you just don't pull an attraction out of thin air when no potential for attraction exists, but decisions and biases shape and limit the potential for attraction in non-obvious ways. For example, a guy who's "just not into blacks" may be looking at the man of his dreams, except for the fact that he's black, and not even recognize it. More personally, I've developed a fascination recently with 250-lb bears. I didn't suddenly make that up. But I recognized it when I opened my mind a little about guys whose height/weight proportions weren't what we consider ideal.

I just love men-any color, any ethnicity.

What does affirmative action have to do with anything? Affirmative action is a legal remedy for institutionalized racism. Individual racism in personal relationships isn't subject to that type of legal control.

Tatts are a behavioral choice. They don't have anything to do with a fundamental fact of a person's being over which they have no control.

But we're talking about a guy who would have been a good partner until he found out the guys ethnic background. That one piece of information changed everything.

Who said you had to?

When I lived in the East Bay I always did park and fly, although it was unnecessary, since I lived not more than 30 min from the airport. It really eased the departure jitters. I did park and fly in SF just once. The way they do it at SFO is such a cluster fuck that it just added to the hassle of departing.

You need to get laid a lot. Being a family man might get in the way a bit.

You won't break or anything if it turns out it's not for you. An escort is the most expedient way to experience male on male intimacy. Lots of them advertise that they are good with newbies. At any time, if you don't like what's happening, you can stop. If you go through with it and you realize it's not for you, you never have to do it again.

Drinking carbonated water all the time is bad for the teeth and bones. It is a weak acid and can change your blood pH, causing calcium to leach from your teeth and bones.

Using them is also dangerous to your health.

So have me over. I want to see this garden of earthly delights.

I I have heard that he occasionally escorted, just never as a regular thing.

I guess Trump isn't the only person who communicates hyperbolically.

You only stick your finger up a guys ass in a special setting? Isn't your bedroom or his bedroom a day-to-day setting?

One of the great things about playing with a highly-sexed man is that I can borrow some of his abundant sexual energy and be as much of an animal as he is. I had a FB with an extraordinary libido. In an afternoon, he might cum 5 times. The thing is, when we had sex, I was able keep with him and perform in ways that I normally didnt.
