Just to clarify, do you mean could you get arrested tomorrow (for example) for having hired an escort 4 years ago?

My friend and I have talked about gay athletes before, as a topic of general interest. But he's not "interested" in the way that I might be.

My (straight) friend - a huge Crimson Tide fan - asked me whether I thought Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson was gay. I don't get any particular vibe from Simpson, so I thought I'd throw the question out to the esteemed panel of experts here. Any thoughts?

What specifically makes this one look fake?

I think reaching out is 100% fine. As others have noted, if he's not interested, he probably just won't reply, and you're fine. I would not ask for current photos, though. What if he sends them, and you are no longer interested? I would feel awkward about hitting up someone who (as far as you know) is no longer active in the business, and then rejecting him when he sends pics. Would you ghost him and not reply? Reply and tell him thanks but no thanks? Maybe I am too sensitive, but that sounds messy.

Boi.

I have seen bachelorette parties at Campus and Stock before, but last night (Saturday) was the first time I have ever seen one at Taboo. There were 15-20 young women seated right around the stage, cheering for the dancers. But these were not the regular Taboo dancers. They had brought in 3 or 4 outside strippers (more like what you would see at a strip show for straight women), and the strippers did not even get naked. The party and show ended early (before 10:30) and all the women left. I really like Taboo, but it seems like an odd place for this sort of event. I also felt badly for the regular Taboo dancers, who just had to stand around while the party was going on (the women did not interact with them at all). But the guys themselves did not seem unhappy about it. Maybe it ended early enough to not hurt their earnings too much? I thought they said this was a newish thing there, and I am sure the owner was happy to get the extra drink sales. Ichabod

It's $20/song at all three stripper bars in Montreal (although one dancer at Stock this week used a timer on his phone instead and quoted me a price of $20 per 3 minutes, which was fine with me). Handsiness varies widely, depending on the dancer. One dancer at Campus this week didn't even get naked until after the second song; he was not into interactivity. A dancer at Stock got naked (and hard) right away, he was all over me, and he suggested he would have allowed a lot of fooling around for the right price.

Has anyone been to this exhibition yet? The First Homosexuals: The Birth of a New Identity, 1869-1939 - Wrightwood 659 WRIGHTWOOD659.ORG Designed by architect Tadao Ando, Wrightwood 659 is a new non-commercial exhibition space in Chicago, IL, conceived for the presentation of exhibitions devoted to... It just opened at Wrightwood 659, which I had never heard of before. It looks really good, but the show requires a ticket and is only open 2-3 days a week.

That is a very sexy man!

Link?

I once hired a masseur in Mexico City to come out to a stripper bar and be my translator for the evening. We had had a great time during the massage and he spoke English very well. Having him at the bar made things go much more smoothly than when I had been there on my own.

I like men in glasses. So if they have any pics of themselves in glasses in their profile, I have asked them to wear them to our meeting.

He is really hot!

I saw that PaulM had been able to pay with a Visa, so I just tried again. It would not accept my Visa card. And here I am, heading to Montreal, needing to check out the private photos of the guys I am thinking of hiring! Aaargh.
