  1. I love them, and also Aman's are funny to try to visit if you're not staying there. Aman Tokyo, they held my luggage while I had a WONDERFUL lunch there. I told Amangiri that I'd be passing by and would I be able to make a lunch reservation? "Call us the morning of" in other words, we want to assess the level of privacy/celebrity in-house, that day. Aman Turks and Caicos is nearly impossible to get to if you're not staying there. By the time I arrived for lunch, I had to turn around without going in because I did NOT want to be on that road at night in a rental car. Amangani is great for dinner if you're not staying there, or of course if you are.
  2. Dogs more, but cats can be great.
  3. "It's raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock" "Hotter than a Three Peckered Billy Goat" "Colder than a coalminer's ass in the Klondike". (I think it's originally, well-digger's ass, and for some reason rural Minnesota shifted it).
  4. I used to attend occasional sex parties in LA before the Covid arrived, and the clothing check is for those people who want to walk around the party naked (or in underwear). "Secure", maybe, but leave the credit cards at home and bring little cash. When I was young in the '90s, the sex parties I attended enforced mandatory nudity. That's more to my liking.
  5. Far from costing me my sanity, I've been close with plenty of clients I could easily imagine spending the rest of my life with were I not already taken. I don't know if that's quite what you're asking?
  6. I've booked months in advance. However, if you're dealing with younger guys, they are more apt to want something nowish. If you do book something in advance, be sure to send a short message(s) now and then saying how excited you are for that date, and specify the date and time each time you do.
  7. Very sorry that guy said that to/about you Kareem. What a fuckTwit. Before my gym shutdown I always walked from my locker to the shower and then to the swimsuit spinner and then back to my locker, nude. And I prefer the men that stay nude as long as they can. This is one of our rare opportunities to be naked together, gay or straight, let's take advantage of it. On the message center people have before commented that younger people don't grow up being "forced" to shower after gym class, and so they are naturally more modest in the gym. I suppose, since they are modest, older men now also cover themselves out of an unconscious mirroring behavior, or simply peer pressure. 20-some years ago I used to see Jerry Stiller walking around the locker room, always sans-towel, at the 13th-street NY Health and Racquet Club. Good for him.
  8. Jamie's a 100% right. 15 years ago, you would have sent an email with all those questions, and the majority of "good" escorts would have answered each one. Today, with text and messenger, anything more than something very simple, won't get a response. Additionally, very often, if you're not asking for right now or at least that day, you won't get much, if any, response. It's the way communication goes now. So, go with Jamie's suggestion.
  9. p.s. some schooled and skilled masseurs, and affectionate escorts, have NOT raised their prices.
  10. Well....not ALL the amenities :-)
  11. The Tragedy of Macbeth
  12. I missed the second one with JH, THANK YOU!
  13. I know someone who lives to kiss, would that work? 🙂
  14. Remarkable, important, book; good for you.
  15. Not to shit on something you are hopefully enjoying, and knowing nothing about the book, I'm 100% sure that this reviewer either has not read one of the seminal books he namechecks, or if did read them he didn't understand them. How else to explain comparing a self-help book to two masterworks of (gay) literature? "Downs’s spry self-help manual is called The Velvet Rage: Overcoming the Pain of Growing Up Gay in a Straight Man’s World. It is becoming a touchstone in gay culture just as Christopher Isherwood’s Goodbye to Berlin was in the 30s, Larry Kramer’s Faggots in the 70s and Edmund White’s A Boy’s Own Story in the 80s. " Oh well.
  16. Dumbest show, and I have to say I've enjoyed it. I have a few episodes of the final season left. Ian and Mickey, whatever the actor's real names are, are just fantastic together. Lip is a great character, and of course Fiona was wonderful. It's a very stupid show with plot lines that go nowhere, but the cast makes it more than watchable. I definitely wouldn't have started watching it if it hadn't been for the pandemic.
  17. After just a few appointments as an escort, you become less resistant to enjoying yourself, thus items from the "I won't" column move quickly into the "Oh Yeah :-)" column.
  18. How about these places? p.s. Powers that be, please don't fuckin' penalize me because the URLs of these sites/locations use the words boys and kids to describe men, it's not my freakin' fault. Thank you. http://www.kocnet.jp/profile/boys.html https://kids-jp.com/en/tk/s/ http://www.coat-embrace.com/staff/ http://tplus2017.com/page/top https://en.hi-na.com/main.php
  19. Ikon Ski Pass, with Aspen add-on, for 2022/2023 Season
  20. Very sorry to hear you're seriously struggling Ryan. I remember when I discovered my studied field, environmental engineering, looked like it was never going to be what I hoped. It was difficult. But you were already having difficulties, and as you know, the blow to your identity just compounded the problem. You're doing all the right things, so, have you tried medication? If so, how was the expereince? If it was bad, or unhelpful, would you consider trying another one? Remember anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medications are temporary, so consider considering them if you haven't.
  21. Before noticing this thread, I posted a thread referencing a NyTimes article on Prostate cancer in gay men.
  22. Since people are unable to Pre-read your mind in order to avoid offending you, how do you cope?
  23. Very glad it helped you and you stuck with it. I'm a huge fan of both Wellbutrin and Lexapro. It's wonderful the Lex side effect of delayed ejaculation, was not on the negative side for you :-) For others, that can be horrible because they don't reach orgasm. It can actually feel a bit scary, because the horniness may remain, but the gun won't shoot. One "remedy" for that is incorporating heavier than usual dose of ED medication such as Viagra. It seems to help SSRI-induced anorgasmia and/or delayed ejaculation. Of course, a high dose of Viagra can be a bit uncomfortable (when I tried vitamin V years ago it gave me such a headache, I haven't dared try it again, and I'm not a pussy when it comes to pain), but that's the 7-headed hydra of medication for you. Again, good on you for not giving up on a medication that could, and happily did, help you.
