  1. It was back in 1995 and I do not recall the name of the lab. You can easily find a lab if you search the internet.
  2. Even though you had the misfortune to have become positive, you have a remarkable attitude about it. It was in 1995 that the medications became available to keep HIV positive people from dying. My two friends who died did so in 1995, just two months before the cocktail was released that kept HIV victims alive. If nature had just a little patience, my two friends might still be here. As to funding, J. F. K. Junior is in charge of America's health system. However, he is not a physician and has had no medical training. He already announced that he is going to cut the funding for research into HIV (and other diseases) and stop further research for vaccines. Forgetting Kennedy, if anyone is interested in taking that HIV resistance test, many labs offer the test. You can check the internet for labs in your area.
  3. I am puzzled why I have never seen, in any gay forum or gay news reports, the fact that there is a certain group of people who are lacking a specific gene that prevents them from becoming infected with HIV. These people can have sex with thousands of HIV positive people and never get infected with HIV because of the lack of a certain gene that prevents HIV from infecting them. When HIV was raging before and into 1995, there was no HIV medication that prevented most HIV patients from dying. Several of my friends died from HIV in 1995 and prior. About that time, the CDC and other reliable medical sources (Medical schools) wrote articles about a lab test that would let a person know if they lacked a specific HIV gene receptor ( CCR5-Δ32 mutation). Most who lack the HIV receptor gene were Northern European, however, some were not. A friend and I hunted for various articles written about the lacking receptor gene. We also hunted for a lab that administered the test to see if we lacked the HIV gene receptor. You can find labs on the internet that administer this test. Some labs require a doctor's prescription while some do not. Happily, my friend and I found a lab and took the test. It was determined that we lack the HIV receptor. Needless to say, we were pleased that we could never become infected with HIV. We are not completely Northern Europeans. We are a mixture of Northern European and a bit of Southern Europe. If you are concerned about being infected with HIV, you might consider taking that test to see if you lack the receptor. For convenience, next is a copy of a response that I got from the internet about the receptor. Yes, a small but significant number of people lack a specific gene mutation, the CCR5-Δ32 mutationCCR5-Δ32 mutation mutation, which prevents HIV from infecting their cells, making them naturally resistant to the virus. This genetic variation, more common in Northern European populations, results in the absence of the CCR5 co-receptor that HIV uses to enter CD4+ T cells. Individuals with this mutation, even when exposed to HIV, cannot become infected with the virus. AND CCR5 Δ32 Mutation The CCR5 Δ32 mutation is a deletion of 32 base pairs in the CCR5 gene, which encodes a protein called the chemokine receptor 5. This mutation is found primarily in people of European descent. Function and Significance: HIV Resistance: The CCR5 protein is used by HIV to enter cells. The Δ32 mutation prevents HIV from binding to and entering cells, making individuals homozygous for this mutation (carrying two copies of the mutated gene) resistant to HIV infection. Other

  5. It is true that most guys charge more if not hired while in the sauna. However, if you figure the savings of not having to pay the sauna entrance to Lagoa and the price of the private room at Lagoa, there really isn't that big of a difference in price between hiring outside versus hiring in the sauna. The only thing missing is the safety factor. At Lagoa, you have virtually no risk of danger. But, going to an apartment or non-sauna room of a garoto, you never know if they are alone or have some mean intention. I cannot begin to guess how many garotos I hired away from the saunas, and I have never had any negative issues.
  6. I visited Brazil often. I do not know the first guy. The second guy lives in Rio but often goes to Sao Paulo. I have seen him in the Paulista area but never had the opportunity to meet him. I also saw him at Lagoa, but he was with a client, which made it impossible for me to have a conversation with him. If the reviews on his ad are correct he would be someone special to meet. He has some incredible reviews
  7. With all due respect, rarely is that term or defense used anymore (selling time for sex). I certainly do not say that I am hiring someone for time when I hire from rentmen.eu. When that defense was used a long time ago, the police generally laughed at the defense. If we (the client) are hiring a hustler, it is foolish to pretend that we are not paying for sex. Can you honestly look at the rentmen.eu site and logically say you are hiring those guys only for "time'? The graphic photos of the escorts tell the true story of what is happening. There is no "sale of time" when hiring guys from rentmen or similar sites. A few years back, a group of escorts got together and decided that the police would not arrest them for prostitution if they said that they were selling time rather than sex. The court did not agree with that defense, stating "why would a person advertise on a graphic gay sex site and offer various sex acts and then claim that they are only selling "time" Selling "time" for "sex" is a defense that died more than two decades ago.
  8. How can you meet someone from Tiktok?
  9. Cute and funny. If it were only so, we would not hire.
  10. Great idea, in theory. However, those laws remain in place. People tend to dislike being tied to a schedule, especially when they must remember to take medicine over time. Even though they need the medication to stay negative, many people forget or just stop caring after a while and miss their doses of the medication and become infectious.
  11. My final contribution to this matter is to copy what I just found on Google with respect to legal various states having different criminal laws for those who fail to disclose their HIV status: It can be illegal and result in felony charges in many US states for an HIV-positive person to solicit sex as a prostitute and claim they are HIV-negative, even if no transmission occurs. This is because some states have laws that criminalize HIV non-disclosure, especially in the context of sex work. Elaboration: HIV Criminalization: Many states have laws that criminalize the transmission or exposure of HIV, or the failure to disclose one's HIV-positive status to a sexual partner. Felony Charges: In some jurisdictions, engaging in sex work while HIV-positive can elevate a prostitution charge to a felony, regardless of whether HIV is transmitted. Intent to Deceive: Claiming to be HIV-negative while soliciting sex, even if not explicitly intending to transmit the virus, can be seen as an attempt to deceive and defraud, which can be a separate charge. No Intent Element: Some felony solicitation statutes do not require any intent to transmit HIV or any activity that could transmit the virus. Aggravated Prostitution: Some states have specific "aggravated prostitution" laws that criminalize sex work by someone who knows they are HIV-positive. Potential for Severe Penalties: Depending on the jurisdiction, these charges can result in significant prison sentences, even if no transmission occurred. Varying Laws: It is important to note that laws regarding HIV non-disclosure and its criminalization vary significantly by state.
  12. I like your misspelling. meeting versus meating
  13. Check your message and the ad you used to respond. You responded to the wrong person. Maybe you are like me, I need a new prescription for my glasses. My appointment is already scheduled. Cheer
  14. The "new ad" statistics do you agree with the stats shown on the original ad posted in the opening post. Are you talking about the same person? Major differences, especially in the age.
  15. Lately? Does last February count as lately? Four and one/half months ago, the place was as good as it usually is. The only thing that I find odd or unpleasant is the unpredictability of when the place will be busy with escorts. Some days you go there in the afternoon and the place is busy. Other times in the afternoon, it is nearly empty. Usually, the place is not busy in the late evening. Sorry that I do not have a more recent report. However, the place is great but the timing of when it is busy is unpredictable. This has been a trend for a few years.
  16. Terrible. However, at least they did not physically harm any of you. Maybe I will re=think my anticipated Tijuana trip.
  17. While it is true what you say, when countless ads are false with so many things like the escorts age and size, just to name two items, why would you expect an escort to be honest about his health status?
  18. I just got off the phone with a Swiss friend who works at Paragonya. You are correct, almost. First you are correct that the Swiss authorities will visit Paragonya and other places of prostitution. However, they are simply looking to see that all prostitutes have paid their mild registration fee AND have taken advantage of the testing services of the government. The government also wants to see that a tax return is filed for long-time prostitutes that have been in Switzerland for several years. So, it appears that the authorities went to the sauna and got access to the identification records of escorts who were required to have their identification copied (and those copies are retained by the sauna) in order to work at the sauna. It would be easy for the government employees to compare the names of Paragonya sauna escorts with registered prostitutes. If there is a name at Paragonya that does not appear on the government registration of prostitutes, of course the Swiss government would then ask if any information is known about the non-register worker. That being the case, if it was known that a worker is staying at a particular hotel , it would be easy for the Swiss police to go there to make the arrest you described. In short, the government is not after prostitutes except to see that they are registered and tested in accordance with local rules. And, if the worker had been in Switzerland a number of years, that a tax return had been filed. Seems like the rumor got just a bit away from reality.
  19. I will be traveling to Tijuana soon. I know that the city is not known for being a safe city. However, the city does have Uber which should cut down on a lot of street muggings going from one location to another. Does anyone know of any gay saunas or similar establishments in Tijuana? Muchas gracias
  20. He is not lying. When he says 30, he means that is his waist size. We just do not know how to read his bad English considering he is from Russia.
  21. Maybe being extra nice to Putin?
  22. A dozen years ago, in Sao Paulo, there were seven nice saunas including the former Lagoa that used to be in a space of three buildings joined to appear as one huge building. Building investors decided to tear down the three buildings that used to be Lagoa in order to build some large high rise apartments and commercial rentals. Lagoa (with a slight name change) moved to its small current location. For reasons unknown, the new Lagoa has remained in business after moving to its current location but the other saunas went out of business one by one. There is another sauna in Sao Paulo named 555 but it is essentially dead being closed often and even when it is open, it usually has zero to a few customers. As to the newly opened sauna "Python", it seems that massages are more of a draw than garotos. Time will tell how it goes there.
  23. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. We all can learn things everyday. I looked at the prostitution rules for Nevada. They are complicated. Although men are allowed to be prostitutes, their customers must be women. For anyone interested in reading the history of Nevada's wishy-washy prostitution rules, here is a brief summary: Prostitution in Nevada - Wikipedia EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG
  24. Yes, in the U.S. prostitution is illegal. However, because both the provider and the customer are aware of the law, much caution is taken when engaging. Once in a rare occasion, in various cities in the U.S., police will place an advertisement with a provider site like "rentmen.eu" or a similar prostitution site to make a fake "reservation" in order to make an arrest of an unsuspecting gay guy answering the fake police ad. The police do not wear a uniform when they meet with the person responding to their bogus advertisement. The police ask the gay guy for money in advance. As soon as the money is given to the asking cop, suddenly several cops appear on the scene to make an arrest of the unsuspecting gay guy. One has to wonder what goes through the minds of the cops that engage in this type of law enforcement. Where is the victim? Our tax dollars at work protecting society - sure!
  25. Considering that he answered a rentmen.com advertisement and was, after being arrested, fined $250 for "disorderly conduct", rentmen should pay his fine. By the way, there is speculation above that he might have engaged with a woman. However, if you notice the film, he handed the money to an overcover cop, at which point the arrest occurred. If there was a woman involved, why would Snyder give the male cop money for sex?
