Why do so many providers use tri/quad-mix instead of pills?
+ robear replied to Argus808's topic in Questions About Hiring
As a regular consumer of porn, I'm amused when the use of Trimix in the shoot is obvious. With nature alone, or even the pills, boners come and go naturally as the action proceeds. Nowadays, everybody in the scene is rock hard before, during and after, it's kinda silly. -
No, but I think there's an important difference. Gay/bi guys are offering what they are used to and enjoy in their private lives. Clients may be attractive only for the paycheck, but the engagement is still within the bounds of the provider's sexuality. For a straight man, it's more like a gay man being paid to have sex with a middle-aged, overweight, socially awkward woman, a whole different level of performance is required.

I use ExpressVPN and think it's a good part of "online hygiene," together with a firewall, virus blocker, popup blocker, etc. It doesn't impact my throughput in any noticeable way, although it's lately messing with my torrent client, so that's a problem to be resolved. Be sure you choose one of the big ones with plenty of transmission points, check cnet.com or pcmag.com for informed comparisons. Occasionally I have to turn it off to do a bank transaction or whatever because they validate my ISP, but that's easy.

I've been happily, um, "cringe" my whole life. I could not care less what anybody else thinks of my personal protective measures, or anything else for that matter.

I think with the chain drugstores you just have to book and keep an appointment. My impression in NYC in that pharmacists to administer vaxes are mostly "extras" jobbed in for specific blocks of time in each location, hence they may not be able to take a walk-in in some cases.

I've visited thisvid for years without negative incident, both viewing and downloading content. As with all porn sites, I think it's doubly important to be sure your protection is in full force: VPN, firewall/anti-virus, popup blocker, etc. And of course, creating a completely anonymous account at the site without any identifying information.

I always take claims of giant payouts from fans pages with a huge grain of salt, it's really just self-promotion. (I'm so hot EVERYbody follows me so you should too.) I'm sure good money is made on the sites by the few creators who work their content consistently. (In my world, MikeGaite, nate_stetsonx, Seattle_Dad fit the bill.) I'm sure they wouldn't put in the amount of time and effort over time if it didn't pay. But I'm also sure they wouldn't be boasting publicly about their fanpage income.

Welcome to the site @rockymeet. AllDayChemist is very much online and functional.

I am!! On public transit in NYC, many still do and I fully intend to keep on. It seems an excellent way to avoid wintertime respiratory miseries of many kinds.

Several providers have been discussed here as, ahem, ripe targets for this particular interest. A quick search of RM screening for the word 'scent' brings up the following. You can probably find more with similar word filters. The first, Bennett Anthony, somewhat newly based in NYC, is legendary for his 'personal aura.' https://app.rent.men/BennettAnthonyx https://app.rent.men/RockoNewYork https://app.rent.men/Straighthalfarab

Yes. I find pharmacies do it automatically, last year I only noticed it when I looked at the paper they gave me. This year I plan to get it at my place of employment, I've asked and they assured me they will have the senior version. I'll ask again before the jab.

Trace Michaels (Masseur on RubHim) Arrested for Murder
+ robear replied to Midwest_Man's topic in The Lounge
Wow, he's long been on my "faves" porn list, especially his vids with partner Adam Rogue. Always seemed so sweet in his videos, lol. Reminder, as if one's needed, that porn is always a performance and the guys we admire and jack off to are fictional characters, not the actual men performing. Crazy. -
Lots to see on his Twitter @jacksonxhowell

I've posted this elsewhere but I think it bears repeating. Emtricitabine / tenofovir (generic Truvada) is available from a number of US retailers for about $30/month, no insurance required. https://www.goodrx.com/emtricitabine-tenofovir
-
Emtricitabine/tenofovir (generic Truvada) absolutely is available in the US, from US pharmacies, and has been for a few years. First FDA approvals were ~2017, although commercial availability was later. If my Dr prescribes it, my pharmacy manager fills it with the generic by default. GoodRx shows a number of retailers offering it for ~$30/month https://www.goodrx.com/emtricitabine-tenofovir

NYC monkeypox vaccine alerts -- 2nd dose -- 4 week window!
+ robear replied to Kevin Slater's topic in Men's Health
That's a question you almost certainly should call to ask. https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/health/health-topics/monkeypox.page Under Eligibility: "Vaccination is free and available regardless of immigration status or residency." But still, it would be good to check with someone. When I went they did check my photo ID, but not sure if that included a check for residency, or simply to confirm the info I had input online. -
For the record, my (big company-provided, commercial) health insurance covers both (generic) Truvada and (brand-name) Descovy 100% in formulary with no out of pocket, no special authorization needed.

Happy birthday David!!

NYC monkeypox vaccine alerts -- 2nd dose -- 4 week window!
+ robear replied to Kevin Slater's topic in Men's Health
When I got my first MPX jab in NYC, one of the screening questions was, have you received a Covid vax or booster in the past 28 days. If yes, you were disqualified. Presumably, once the new Covid booster is rolled out there will be guidance about the MPX II shot. -
NYC monkeypox vaccine alerts -- 2nd dose -- 4 week window!
+ robear replied to Kevin Slater's topic in Men's Health
A complicating factor in all this is the recommendation that a MPX vax not be given within 4 weeks of a Covid booster because of the risk of myocarditis. We expect new Covid boosters to be available soon, late Sept or early Oct, but that overlaps the window for the MPX II for many. My priority is the Covid booster, my risk of MPX is really minimal, but others will differ. -
Fully agree with FrankR, that you need to see a doctor and get clear on this under his/her care. However, a few broad aspects of this (I am not a medical professional, I am on PrEP and have been for several years.) In the US, the 2 drugs (combos of two drugs actually, emtricitabine and tenofovir) used for PrEP are Descovy and Truvada. They are both one pill daily. Descovy is newer and generally preferred because it's "lighter" in medication, the big whammy of Truvada isn't deemed necessary, although Truvada is available as a generic so your choice may be informed by what's available to you. PrEP is taken on an ongoing basis, it's strongly advised NOT to stop and start based on your sexual activity. Once you're on it, you stay on it. Most people report no side effects, or other impediments to taking it (other than availability/affordability if that's an issue). PEP is essentially the same thing but calibrated for suspected post-exposure. I believe the regimen is higher dosing, and may involve another drug. Many have reported that a course of PEP can be difficult to take, with unpleasant side effects. The two approaches aren't combined. Get on PrEP, stay on PrEP, that's it. Guidance that I've seen is that it takes 10 days of daily dosing of Descovy or Truvada for full protection. Obviously that's an estimate, but the key is not to assume you are fully protected tonight if you took your first pill this morning, your body has to ramp up to full protection. But please do all of this with a trusted physician, or at least a provider from a sexual health clinic, to make sure you're clear on your situation and options.

Hi Manuel, welcome to the forum!! You're way more likely to get useful feedback if you provide some idea about what you look for in an escort. Style (twink, muscle, bear, etc.), position (top, bottom, verse), other attributes that appeal to you (height, coloring, etc.).

No info here, but wow, craigslist! There's a blast from the past!!

Do any of you live where it's difficult to find gay-accepting doctors?
+ robear replied to a topic in Men's Health
A quick Google produces this, which includes Dr. Foshee, Dermatologist (and maybe others). You probably prefer a male provider, but advertising to an LGBT etc population as she is, you can be sure you're not bringing her anything she hasn't seen before. https://www.pride214.com/gay-friendly-doctors "Asking around" is important, too. Gay friends, other providers (like a PCP), community support resources, hell ask your favorite bartender. Gay men are hardly under-represented among dermadocs, there are probably dozens in practice in a huge metroplex like DFW.
