There are many hot tops in/around Miami - it may help responses if you expanded more on the type of guy, (ie; muscled, hairy/smooth, age, ethnicity, etc.), the activities you’d want to engage him for beyond topping, (ie; BFE, kissing, rimming, mutual oral, etc.), and any thing that’s a “no go” (ie; PNP, BB, smoking, etc.). 👍🏻

trying to keep this politics-free.....
mention was made upthread about the somewhat-parallel history of this forum (COM) and the forum now called gayguides......I'm not an insider, but can offer some comment from what I've learned for those interested in the history and for those newer to all this......others here in the forum know a lot more than me about the various personalities involved and are much-invited to correct any mistake I make here!
way back in "hooboy" days (pre-2006 or so), there was just one primary forum about providers (escorts).....hooboy started a website about 1999 called something like "male4maleescorts" because of his great interest in the subject and his desire to help others who dabbled in the hobby....back in the early 2000s, hooboy was notorious for repeatedly losing his laptop (!) while globetrotting, but was obsessed with getting the daily provider reviews posted on time......what is now the current COM forum you're at right now was also alive and well in those early "hooboy" days and had lively discussion and a host of charismatic posters (as we have today!).....at one point, I believe hooboy broke off political discussion into its own subforum to unclog the primary discussion forum......
hooboy died about 2006 and two of his techie IT-ish guys, believing in the "mission", vied to carry the site on.......there was something of a minor estate battle involving the "value" of the site between hooboy's real-life heirs and these two IT guys.....one of the two IT guys ("totallyoz" at gayguides) eventually created a site called, I think, "maleescortreview" (?) and the other IT guy ("daddy", who died in early 2021) created "daddysreviews" which has descended into this forum......both had/have popular forums and reviews......many here in the daddysreviews/COM forum famously referred only to the "other site" (avoiding mention of its real name) because "daddy" and "totallyoz" didn't get along in some way after hooboy's death......various forum members have come and gone, some joining both sites along the way (sometimes even with different handles!!) and occasionally offering vigorous commentary on the pros and cons of each site!.......of course, there are also many who join only one site or the other and have no interest in, or knowledge of, "the other site"......
possibly because of financial or marketing concerns, "totallyoz" of the "other site" eventually merged with larger messageboard hosting services (yuku and one or two others) and what is now called "gayguides" resulted.......as suggested upthread, it has become very much the leader of the two sites in international destination discussion of providers/sex work because, in part, totallyoz, I believe, lives overseas and because many of its forum members are only interested in those destinations.....
I think I have most of this correct......corrections or additions invited!
AZ - not an “insider” at all either, but been around these forums since the HooBoy days, and your succinct summary is how I remember things playing out 👍🏻
I do remember another site too - “toyboy” or “boytoy” or something like that. I remember I was looking on here for info about a specific European destination, and another forum member suggested via PM that I try there. I did, and as I remember the site was lousy with vitriol directed at this site, those running it, those on it, etc., and the posters made DataLounge seem like a bunch of church ladies 🤣- Marc in Calif, + Axiom2001, + azdr0710 and 1 other

May I ask you to expand please on what you mean by this phrase.
“Glass closeted” - meaning the gent is known to be gay or like men, but it’s not discussed. Different from “closeted” where the gent is not known or often even suspected of being gay or liking men.

Opposites attract !
( Probably why I find Arabic and Mediterranean men so exciting. )
I’m the same.

Ahmed or Pharogyptian on RM in Barcelona is a wonderful man
Didn’t find either advertising in Barcelona on RM ☹️ Do they have ads elsewhere?

As far as Arab providers, I agree ..the US is rather spartan in available providers. They may find closeted oil-sheiks to be a more profitable community, than some of these cheap-ass Americans who post here, quibbling over a $ 100. premium.
In my experience when I was traveling regularly to the Gulf, while there is a large number of closeted men, there’s also a large number of “glass closeted” men. Both cohorts came from a more affluent/educated background, and tended to be more secular than devout in their religion, (think “A&P Catholics”). Plus there is a whole contingent of professional expats living/working there who are “glass closeted” at least when in the Gulf. But as far as providers go, it’s the Western lads who clean up and are in demand, at least from the Arab hobbyists. While I knew, and enjoyed, several Arab men during my times in the Gulf, none were providers - tho many of them would have sent many a heart -among other parts- aflutter if they advertised in the West.

Use it or lose it.
This 100%!
My father and his sisters were raised speaking multiple languages, that came from his father’s side as they were all polyglots. Growing up, it was odd/funny hearing them speak as they flowed in and out of different languages during a conversation - one speaking Spanish, another replying in French, a third adding in Spanish, but using a German expression midway because it fit better, etc..My father -more properly his family- tried to keep that going with my siblings and I. But alas, my siblings had no gift for languages. For whatever reason, I could and did pick them up easily enough. Funny to remember different teachers, professors thru the years asking where I learned to speak, because apparently I spoke an archaic 19th century version 🤷🏼♂️ But as the grandparents generation, then my father’s generation passed, I rarely used them. I can probably get thru a full mass in maybe 4 languages (plus Latin), but conversations are challenging. Though, I have noticed if I’m in someplace for an extended stay, by day 2 or 3 I can be back to fully conversant.
Anyway, back to Arab providers - there was one delicious gent I had the pleasure of knowing. Beautiful 1/2 Colombian, 1/2 Lebanese fellow, based in Germany. Dark featured, green eyes, muscled, hairy, blessed, gay, and a genuinely nice, fun, smart guy. He would do the rounds of the European capitals, and a once a year swing thru the US. Then one day *poof* ad gone, social media gone, phone disconnected, etc.. I recall at the time discussing it with another hobbyist on here - both of us lamenting his departure from this hobby. I still occasionally peek thru the German ads, just in case he’s back - but no such joy.
There seems to be a gap in the marketplace at least in the US for Arab providers - particularly gay providers.- pubic_assistance and claym

@poolboy48220 yes, and here too! 😀
He really is stunning! Considering his height (6’7” or 6’8”) he’s perfectly proportioned all over. Pity he’s straight 🤷🏼♂️

If you want to wear a mask, wear a mask. If you don’t want to, don’t. Neither group should be judging the other for their choice.
I’m in NYC, and just from my observations, the number of people wearing masks continues to decline significantly. On the streets, on the subway, in stores, etc.. I will say though that of the ones wearing, there’s a good number that shouldn’t even bother because they’re wearing them incorrectly - they’re basically using them as chin guards.
Personally, I can’t remember the last time I wore a mask - but I always have one on me just in case I need it.

This one intrigued me, so using his Twitter handle above, a quick google search revealed - he’s in the Ukraine, is straight, has an OF, and has done some work at fitcasting.com.
