There's a place in Lincoln Park that turned itself into a 90s bar. They have all the arcade games that were popular around 1990 (Ninja Turtles, etc.), don't require quarters, and play 90s TV shows like American Gladiator. I'd love to get a guy to dress up like Mark Wahlberg and pick me up there. It would be like a childhood fantasy come true. I always loved that moment when he went shirtless Good Vibrations

I have carolus ignored, but I see enough in the replies to be amused. * pulls out popcorn as well *

Back in college, our gay group went to some conference, and stayed at a hotel in a rural area. Several of my roommates invited several other people over. I believe there were 5 people in the bedroom (1 of them was a bi woman), while 2 other gay guys locked themselves in the bathroom for ws. I received the best bj of my life. The next day, I laughed when one of the visitors turned up in a suit ready to talk at the conference.

Twinks evolve into twunks. That's what you call a "twink as a guy with a six-pack, hulking chest, and sizable arms." Where are you located (Chicago here)? I have no problem finding "skinny non-muscular twinks" online.

Yes. The hottest and most desirable escorts visit the UAE. Obviously they're not too scared. It's a business hub in a Muslim area, and to gay Muslims with money, it's literally a Mecca.

Yes. Just wait as long as you're willing, then contact someone else. If the person you initially texted gets back to you, and you have someone else, just tell them. It's just business. I know some clients text multiple providers at once, but I personally don't think that's a good business practice.

Just don't ask an escort to take an on-the-spot STD test. I think most would find that insulting, or at least consider you neurotic. Assume he has everything. You made the right move packing condoms, etc.

In the book I read, the author called that the "mindset." Part of it is that - that techies are so used to dealing with computers, that their approach to life is to simply try and "delete" or "block" a problem (or people) they find troublesome. Likewise, a lot of them approach their prepper compounds as they would a game of Sim City. Likewise, they've read too much Rand and imbibed her half-assed idea that the elite could create some utopia and live apart from all those pesky non-billionaires. But their main weakness is they are completely clueless about human nature and motivations. In the book, one literally thinks that if he forces his guards and soldiers to wear electric collars, and is the only one able to access the food vault, that they'd stay loyal....

I read a whole book about this; here's a review of it: https://www.thenation.com/article/culture/douglas-rushkoff-survival-richest/ It will suffice to say that these billionaires might survive the apocalypse....for about a week or so before their guards kill them and take over the compound. And that such billionaires have very little idea of how the world - or normal people - operate.

Yeah, the police here need a little training. They said they still suspected suicide. Despite: Family members shared with NewsNation that he had a caved-in skull, road rash on his hip, gravel rash on his shoulder and multiple bruises on his body. His teeth were also scattered along the highway.

In books, I've seen "rough trade" used in a somewhat derogatory manner, and always referring (as in Wikipedia) to working class men. For instance, one character, upon seeing a working-class man near a gay bar, summarily dismissed him as "rough trade," assuming he was a hustler. It's been a veeery long time since I heard it used in everyday conversation.

Here's some stats: 20% of the people at the Democratic convention will be gay. I doubt many of them are closeted, but they might look at the menu while they're here. https://www.advocate.com/politics/democratic-convention-lgbtq-staff

It's not a red flag for a few hours - they could be meeting with another provider. However, if they go a day or two without responding, it probably means they aren't interested, aren't available, or aren't checking their texts. Otherwise, it varies. Some providers only want same-day appointments, while others can schedule weeks in advance. However, providers who can schedule that well are rare.

Too bad - he listed "kissing."

His physique, yes. What about his appearance? All his pics are almost a decade old.

I sent my survey in. Since I use RMen, the review options (especially for the U.S.) are technically more limited.

That's what I use the refractory period during my 2 hours sessions for. It's pretty easy - I find some topic they're interested in, and then listen as they talk, only occasionally asking something. However, I can remember only one provider who spent all his time talking about the subject the OP mentioned. He was very troubled, and often talked with me about the same topics he - by his own admission - spoke to his therapist about, and for which I could offer no safe advice. He wasn't in a good place. Most providers I meet have strong opinions on something political or some current event. They're eager to talk about it, and I'm eager to listen. It's a nice way to pass the time between 2 orgasms. Plus, like the OP said, opportunities come up - after one regular told me about a non-escort friend who needed money, I was able to hire EDIT both several times.

Fair enough. During the 90s, in the youth meeting group at Horizons (old name of Center on Halsted), there was a "swear jar" to keep our tongues blunt. One of the words that cost money was "ghetto." I'm sorry, but I didn't think it belonged on that jar then, and still don't. I don't believe in "microaggressions," even given some offensive things I've been told as a gay man. If my thinking is still decades old, so be it.

I've seen a LOT of old people whine about that in many different stores...usually when they're in front of me at the checkout line.

"Chicago wop." As for Monarchy79, that self-righteous moralizer just became persona non grata to me, thanks to my ignore list. Ta!

All that means is, to a Chicagoan, when you meet, it's clear he comes from the South Side. Just as it's obvious to other Chicagoans that I clearly came from a Chicago Italian neighborhood.

He used to be on RM, where I hired him a couple years ago, but he took his ad down. I happened to find a neglected ad on FB, that he doesn't really pay attention to, but it had his number on it. He remembered me and performed even better than I remember. Yes, this is a funny question, but it's also a funny way to celebrate Juneteenth. My company gives us the day off in order to appear concerned about race relations, so I decided to use the day as intended. Or not. (and if I hired a guy called Jesus, I'd do it on Easter instead of Christmas)

For Juneteenth, I found a young, handsome man of African descent living on the South Side of Chicago. Very ghetto, but an amazing kisser - a great combination. Does this make me a horrible person?

That's why I can't take life expectancy quizzes - I have no idea who my biological family is (and after foster care, I have no intention of ever finding out).
