Leave the cheap oppressors alone and be free.
SA, I know you mean well, but you are making assumptions that probably don't hold up for many of the guys who work in "spas." First, that they have a space to host clients in NYC, much less in Manhattan. Second, running an online ad requires a credit card or bank account to pay the fee. It's not likely that many of these guys have such a thing. Finally, as has been discussed here many times, some guys may need to stay "under the radar" for immigration reasons, or worse, are beholden to a "handler" of some kind who holds their passport and calls the shots.
Going freelance would be a big step for someone who perhaps is not fluent in English, or confident in being able to negotiate terms with a client. The spas have the space and a more-or-less reliable flow of customers. Yes, the money sucks for them, but it realistically may be the only viable option for many who work in them.

I saw a provider recently who booked his space in NYC with Sonder. Like airbnb but they control the properties they rent. Was positive about the experience and said it wasn't too expensive. Not sure what that meant to him, but you could check it out.

March steps off at 23rd & 5th, heading south, turns west on 9th St. to Christopher, then proceeds on Christopher to about Hudson, where it disperses. Haven't been in several years, but experience has shown your best viewing is in the teens on Fifth, where there is space and the crowds are thinner. Avoid the Village unless you really like insane mob scenes.

Has FetchV been checked for virus content?
I downloaded it from the Edge addin store, so it passed MS's screening

Thanks, Shaitanlblis. Will check it out.
For myself, I've become far less "acquisitive" about content and really don't download much any more. My collecting days date to the era of individual subscription sites. The tsunami of providers and content on the fans platforms make saving any of it kind of silly. I spend much more time deleting what I have than adding to the collection. But that's just me, appreciate the tip!

I had a wonderful 3 hour session with Mike.
Did you find him at all difficult to book? As with other prodigiously productive content creators, one wonders WHEN he has the time and energy for meetups. Then again, a 3-hr. session is probably a big, and very profitable, incentive for anybody.

That's very interesting, thank you. Will monitor progress ...

Anyone with experience getting PrEP meds on Medicare free or cheap? It has always been free for me on my group health insurance, as it is for many commercial insurance plans. The meds are "covered" on Med D and Advantage plans (I think by law), but still entail hundreds a month in copays in every plan I've looked at. All the copay refund programs etc. specifically exclude Medicare recipients. So what's an old slut to do?
The cheapest I've found, bypassing insurance altogether, is Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Drugs site, which offers generic Truvada for $16.10/month, $38.30/90 days. That is of course quite affordable, but I wonder if any fellow horny old coots has a better solution.

Having met up with you, I wouldn't recommend you though.
I don't think that kind of nasty comment directed to a provider is necessary or appropriate in this forum.

As is often discussed, "sensual" and "erotic" are vague terms that can mean many different things in practice. An advertiser might change his ad for lots of reasons, including managing expectations of prospective clients. However, if you're an experienced client with a provider, and the service provided has changed, why not simply ask? It seems a case where actual communication would be better than assuming or making up stories about what has happened, there could be erroneous assumptions on both sides. An honest exchange might either improve your relationship with the provider, or allow you decide not to come back to him.

I've had one (and only one) masseur begin with me on my back, working from top and bottom to center and the happy ending in the first part of the massage. Then with that great relaxation in effect, over and onto the back etc. Although very unusual, it makes sense in that the effect is to produce an almost coma-like state.

Not scientific, but my impression is that circ is rare in Asian cultures, except for Muslim groups. Asian body types often have short foreskins, you rarely see the long, overhanging skins of some men from other cultures (African, Latin, European, etc.), so it's often not particularly apparent.

HPV
in Men's Health
To echo BN above, the reason for the age limit associated with the vax is the assumption that any sexually active person of an age (and we know that SOME of us have bodycounts in the thousands!) will already have been exposed to the virus in some of its many forms. The original impetus was to vax teenagers before they become sexually active, although that age consideration has been revised upward. You might begin by asking your doctor for an antibodies test to see if you're already positive. I believe that if so, they will also analyze what strains of the virus you carry, only a few are problematic. Better yet, take up the whole matter with a clinician informed of men's STIs and whether the vax might be useful for you.

That's his porn site, try allensi.com for more info about his services. He has always presented as an escort, masseur and sacred intimate. I have seen him many times for massage and he's quite good at it. Before each massage he asks if you want anal touch (clear and above-board). If yes, at that point in the massage he dons a latex glove and uses actual lube for that part, which I really appreciate because it puts the client in charge of his own experience, and maximizes comfort and hygiene. Again, he's really good at it, but it wouldn't entail anything else except by advance arrangement for a "play date."

Congratulations of your evolving sense of self and your sexuality. Enjoy the ride. LOL
There's some great advice offered on this thread, especially around focusing your specific needs, and your own health and safety. I'd add a caution not to load too many expectations on any single encounter. Enjoying sex with male partners is a skill you need to learn, just as you had to learn to be with women. It doesn't come fully formed, and no encounter, paid or otherwise, is going to fulfill all your fantasies. Arrange a meet, see it through, and learn what worked and didn't. As the cliche goes, it a journey, not a destination.

So, if a provider takes Viagra he must be aroused somehow I think.
That is true. Not necessarily for injectables, perhaps. However, I think for men "aroused" is a continuum, not an absolute state. A guy may not be sexually into his partner, but still can be stimulated, especially if he's in the right head space and has a talent for performance. Vitamin V can help that along.

I suspect every college campus in the world still has a GH at the last stall from the door on the third floor of the library. College boys will always want their cock sucked anonymously between classes and that's just more efficient than anything else. Straight(ish) boys probably don't want any kind of face-to-face grindr meet just to get their knob slobbered. There's plenty of old-timey bathroom cruising out there in some places, as evidenced by tons of online video content shot with phones. (OMG that that should have existed when I did such things ...) But the whole culture of street cruising that flourished in moreorless the 70s-00s (bookstores, rest stops, alleyways, parks, etc etc) has passed.

Have to agree with the "how would you know"s, except perhaps a Trimix injection would happen at the time of the meet. In any case, it would say to me the gentleman of the hour is thoughtful and deliberate about providing his best experience to me as a client. I'd count that very much a plus, this site abounds with stories of indifferent providers just looking for quick cash.
-
I don't know how any of this works, but in regards to the provider, perhaps you could contact him via the same channel you booked him and explain briefly that you intended a gratuity that didn't go through, how can you get it to him? He'll likely appreciate a Venmo or whatever, but it's his choice.

His ad copy suggests his English is rudimentary at best. I guess something things don't need language, but pre-arrangements might be limited.

How Common is Sleep Apnea? Do People Tolerate the Masks Well?
in Men's Health
Posted
I've used a CPAP for several years, took to it right away and don't like sleeping without it. I take that as an indication my body likes it, too. Important to realize there are many different options for masks, and a new patient should insist that the doctor/equipment supplier make changes as necessary until the right mask is found. I'm currently using the ResMed Airfit N20, which is a nasal mask with pretty substantial headgear, but because I toss a lot it keeps the mask on securely. But that's me. Bonus for folks with sleep partners, a properly functioning CPAP should greatly cut down on snoring and other night noises.
