I feel @Fridolf that your description is perfect. He has a very unusual profile. I’m concerned tho by his lack of weight. Even if he likes food as much as he relates, he cannot eat much. If I were to hire him, as I’m energetic when topping, I’d be fearful that I’d break him.

Thank you for posting @Coolwave35 but I’m very confused by your report. Is this the start of the New Puritanism? The men are all clothed, except for one pic where a butt is glimpsed and a final pic where 3 men coyly hide their endowments. Usually @Coolwave35 you can be relied upon for the full, salacious details of the party. So in the spirit of seasonal goodwill I ask: Who did What and to Whom? 😎

The info in this thread is still good IMO and can be relied upon, except that The Hothouse announced its permanent closure some months ago. I find local opinion on the crime-rate is divided. Some friends report that casual street robbery, robbery from cars etc has increased while other friends feel the incidence of crime is unchanged. No one thinks crime has gone down. With the pandemic, economic support for individuals and businesses has been very limited indeed. Unemployment is at very high levels (unofficial estimates are about 50%). It’s been a tough 2 years for many people there. Be careful and smart when hiring.

It’s why, when I wanted to see what you’d posted @Charlie, I scrolled down rapidly.

After numerous extensive vacations in Australia, and repeated trips to excellent cake-shops in Melbourne and Sydney, I can confidently say that I’ve never heard an Aussie pronounce ‘cake’ as ‘kike’. Now I’m not sure whether historically ‘kike’ was used as an anti-Semitic slur in Australia (as it was in the UK a century ago) but I feel that any visitor should best avoid saying it.

I thought it was only current around 1910-1920 (at least that’s what my father told me). When did you hear it @poolboy48220? And I assume @Unicorn has figured it out now

33 gift ideas listed in the link provided by @Derrick Rigg but no mention of good underwear? I like to see muscled guys in tight white briefs or well-fitting jockstraps as I feel they should be properly dressed when they come to bed.

Watch their balls turn blue? 😎

Thanks for bringing back good memories @jeezifonly. I too loved dancing at that age. I went often to WCPC - West Coast Production Company, tho I had forgotten its full name until I saw your post. I lived in a house on Point Loma then. WCPC seemed to attract lots of transients and newbies in San Diego. I also went several times to a gay bar by the gates of a Marine base. I cannot recall the name. Was it something like Last Call or Roundup? The bar had music but I can’t remember if it had dancing. The bar had a very nice crowd and one evening I met a young Marine there. He was fun, a sweet guy but not too experienced. Even though I took him to brunch the next day, he didn’t want our date to end after a replay that afternoon.

Was it “LaTeDa” that, later in the evening, had 1 or 2 go-go boys dancing in their briefs on top of the bar? I fondly recall ‘slippage’ - as the evening wore on, the briefs were worn less. Also I once spent some time chatting to a very nice “bar-back”…who told me he had nowhere to say that night. I took him home and he proved surprisingly compliant.

To me, what’s so nice about this thread is that everyone is so high-minded. No-one is interested in salacious gossip anymore. I mean not only the persistent rumours in London (that HC plays for our team) but also the reports in Brazil (when HC, on a movie-marketing tour, was reported as leaving a gay disco very late at night with 2 nice young men). It’s refreshing that the forum has become so serious 😎

To me, this doesn’t seem realistic at all. Instead it sounds like a rather romantic notion. (As an aside, does your chosen screen-name reflect that you are indeed lonely?) So how many times have you met? More than 50? More than 100? And are these only occasions of ‘dinner, bed & breakfast’? Or have you been on trips with him and spent 1-2 weeks in each other’s company? I don’t see the age-difference as a barrier to romance (I myself have a much younger partner and we’ve been together for several years). But you have a number of significant obstacles to surmount. For instance, 1. do you speak his mother-tongue very well? 2. are his educational attainments sufficient for him to have a decent career in your home-city? 3. do you have plenty of money to support him while he is getting established? (I’m not talking about the extra costs of feeding and housing him but rather his monthly allowance (say $1000 in a big city), his phone and gym bills, possibly a car etc) 4. is your home large enough? (Possibly his hobbies and interests may differ from yours, say he goes to bed much later than you, or plays loud music etc) If you are serious about this @lonely_john, I urge you to take a trip with him and spend an entire month together. If you can’t enjoy that amount of time with him, consider how a couple of years will seem…

May I ask how old you are @Woofiecmh I feel you’re just having a bout of nostalgia. Nothing wrong in that: you’re merely missing what once was and what you associated with your youth. And on the specifics you mentioned, I used to go regularly and have a drink in the Castro before dinner in the Mission, but it ceased to be a ‘gayborhood’ more than 20years ago. And I used to love Key West; I’d go 3x each Winter, but I haven’t returned since 1998.

I haven’t seen any porn in years…so why do you describe him as a “porn mainstay” @snogaholic ? I followed the link. The review you described is certainly a stinker. And I’m no expert on marketing but his working-name?! As a top, I do like bottoms but I’ve never sought a “damaged” one.

To my mind @tassojunior that’s a very French way of thinking. I’ve often seen ‘luxury’ businesses there interpret a slackening of demand for their products as a reason to increase the price. This applies to art dealers, antique shops, perfumers as well as Hermes.

You know how to use Google right? Type in Chris Evans…it offers as the first result CE dick pic…select Images and there it is (in small format of course)

Did Broadway dim its lights tonight in honour of Mr Sondheim? In London, all the theatres in the West End will dim their lights to mourn his passing on Monday evening (at 7pm for 2 minutes)

I feel you’ve answered the OP’s questions very well @sjmuktop I’d just add that years ago when I hired, I wasn’t concerned if an escort asked for my pic or asked about my age, weight, sexual preferences etc. I was always picky when dating and I accepted that escorts might be picky too. I much preferred to find out in advance that we would not be compatible . It saved me time and money, and spared me an unsatisfactory date.

I feel for you @agentgemini It’s very frustrating when someone ‘no shows’. To answer your 1st question: this happened to me some years ago. I was left waiting on an overnight date in LA with a very well-reviewed muscleboy who was exactly ‘my type’. I was upset but stayed calm. I finally reached him by phone 4 hours after the time he’d set. He was very apologetic (but gave no reason) and begged for a second chance. A month later, I’d fixed another overnight from 6.30pm and I phoned him as arranged at 4pm with the WeHo hotel room number. He said he’d hurt himself and had to go to hospital. (I phoned him later on another phone to check how he was; he didn’t recognise my voice and instantly told me he was free to meet; I said I’d think it over) To answer your 2nd question: always have a Plan B. Because the well-reviewed versatile muscleboy had let me down once, I had the numbers of 4 other LA muscleboys with me. I phoned 3 and quickly set up dates. I saw a lovely guy for sex before dinner. Afterwards I had a well-muscled guy (later I discovered he was famous) for a great session before I slept. In the morning, I had the 3rd guy come and service me before breakfast. I had loads of fun with the 3 muscleboys and the 3 dates in total cost less than I’d agreed for the overnight with the ‘no show’.

I don’t disagree with you @lonely_john. I always think that, when escort demands seem excessive, very politely saying ‘No, thank you. But good luck to you” remains the greatest power a prospective client has.

Do you say that @sync because he shaved his body hair (and indeed his pics show a smooth torso) to look less “otter”?

This mirrors my own experience @HoseMaster. I had some great dates with a handsome, blond muscleboy-bottom, 23 before I asked him for an overnight. He was new to the business and quoted me $2500. When I explored his pricing, it transpired that he’d only done 1 overnight date before; it was with a fit 30 year old who topped him 5x between bouts of kissing and oral so he’d barely slept at all. I explained my routine (full, athletic sex session on arrival, good restaurant dinner, shorter session before 7 hours sleep, and oral to completion before breakfast) and he immediately responded with $800. We had an enthusiastic and passionate time, and he became a regular date for me.

I preferred to have a few regulars. The virtues were that scheduling was much easier, and my needs were met by a rotation of desirable men. I agree @The Dude that ‘service standards’ can slip over time. If I was really into a guy, I’d hope to fix the problem by mentioning it straightaway…but if the problem recurred, I’d find a new man.

He certainly looks attractive. May I ask @TumYum whether you “are chatting” in Spanish or English? I was surprised that his profile is wholly written in Spanish. Is that accepted now in NYC?

Hope that’s not one of those Chinese-made extension cords that catch fire after 15 minutes 🥸
