    + robear got a reaction from + Just Sayin in How Common is Sleep Apnea? Do People Tolerate the Masks Well?   
    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.

    if your friend did not go to a doctor that specializes in sleep disorders, I'd encourage consulting one; my PCP referred me several times to sleep clinics, and each time recommended the masks that look like gas masks; I tried that but did not tolerate using them; the specialist had me try various, less intrusive options, and I have been using one for 5 or 6 years with success

    He's a legal adult.  He could have moved out from parents and had his own spouse and children at 18!  It's very sad what happened, but these adult 19-22 year olds are whom to blame.

    FYI - the OnlyFans creator being discussed is SantanaXXL.  He is a very successful OF creator in terms of likes, subscribers & income generated. OF “likes” can only be made by subscribers which is an indicator of subscribers/income.  He’s so successful that he maintains a separate site that sells various merchandise - very few OF creators generate enough interest for merchandise sales. 
    While his audience may not be the people here - he has a huge audience that supports him.  He routinely films with very popular creators that do fit with more traditional ideas of male beauty & sexy - he doesn’t seem to have any problem getting willing collaborators.  Obviously they know the upside of appearing with him and/or there is an attraction. btw - he has 788,000 followers on Twitter
    I tend to have far more respect for anyone that manages to succeed while overcoming societal expectations, discrimination, judgment through their own drive, ambition & despite all the odds.  I can only imagine how many times this guy was told he couldn’t do exactly what he did.

    I have only been at this about a year and on this forum a few months.  I have been fortunate also.  I always prepare for the worst with an appt.. never have wallet with me, fingerprint entry to phone and pay for hotel with a card that only has a 500 limit on it.   I also pay cash on a first meeting (and never upfront) and I hide the cash somewhere in the room.  
    Once I know someone, I loosen some things up.  I also veer toward providers that are reviewed well and the reviews feel legit.  I also check the other relevant things from their ads such as the quality of how their ad is written, picture quality, etc.  Now that I am on this forum, I look up anyone I am considering.  But for me, one of the most important is I stick to locals versus travelers.  It took me months before I booked someone the first time, but I knew who was local to my area and luckily I have made solid relationships with 5 guys I do repeat business with, one that now comes to my house.  Feeling comfortable going into a session versus worrying if you are going to get scammed makes things much more enjoyable.

    Dude, you don't have to be so degrading in your comments. You can simply say that he is not your type or this coupling doesn't pique your interest or don't  say anything at all. But to be cruel, it's so not necessary.

    I am not saying I am attracted to this guy or want to watch his porn, but that doesn't mean he isn't a human being worthy of respect. If people want to watch him, more power to them.  There is an audience for him.  No need to be unkind.

    I think of OF creators like Seattle Dad who were denied entry intomporn but found a wide audience on their own.  Body positivity in porn doesn't have to embrace people who look, well, like me, but there is room for sexiness in multiple shapes and ages. Guys with tummies can be hot, guys with big bellies can be hot, guys over 60 can be really hot, guys without strong muscle definition can be hot, etc. 
    When I think back to the best sex I've ever had,  it has mostly been with average guys who couldn't make 25 cents in porn.

    I had the hour-long appointment with Sacred Intimate Tuesday evening; setting it up and communication through his arrival went smoothly. 
    Overall, I'd give the experience an A or A-. The minus is because his technique and process is heavily rooted in New Age philosophies (Eastern spirituality and the like) and if you're not into that, then it probably isn't for you. (Despite being basically a rational, intellectually oriented Westerner, I've had much exposure to these, including decades of practicing yoga, and I've been consciously trying to stay open to new experiences as I age, instead of becoming some senior citizen set in his ways.)
    The session is about 1/3 spirituality, 1/3 massage, and 1/3 eroticism. We started with a warm, long hug and then he set up my bedroom (this was an outcall) as what he called a "sacred space": he came equipped with candles, incense, tiny paintings to put around the room, and two speakers (one for the New Age-y mix tape on his phone and the other for forest sounds). Then, still fully clothed we sat on the bed and did some yogic breathing and some sensory awareness exercises.  
    After that, we stripped down and he massaged me: a mixture of shiatsu, Swedish, and unfamiliar-to-me (Hawaiian, per his website?). He seemed more intuitive here and less formally trained. Still, it was relaxing. 
    The last portion of the session was more erotic. To quote his RentMasseur ad, "I offer an erotic message that is ... about creating extreme intimacy between two men. Often clients feel guided to touch me as well and this is something I encourage because then we are SHARING erotic energy which lifts the whole experience." I have the strong impression that how far this goes depends on what kind of connection he makes with the client; in my case, because I was open to the spiritual aspects earlier in the hour, and could embrace them, I probably got more than the average client (he said as much, afterward). So it's definitely a case of YMMV. 
    He's in the NY area until August, although only occasionally in the city itself. If you feel you'd be into it and want to experience an older masseur than most of them out there, go for it.

    + robear got a reaction from HungreeMunkee69 in Spas in NYC   
    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.
