We're all wired differently. My wiring prohibits me accepting the feeling that something I'm voluntarily paying for is making me feel disrespected or victimized . I've walked away from guys who were dishonest in advertising. Walked away after starting with guys who had extremely distasteful physical conditions (extreme, oozing roid-backne, and big sore on penis.) Quit seeing guys Id seen multiple times for extended visits after encountering dishonesty, or very lackadaisical performance. Cancelled after being jerked around through multiple, hours of, postponements. Sometimes there's just an annoyance or customer service factor that triggers the feeling "what the fuck am I doing trying to pay for this?" and I move on.

No one who got away. A guy named Brick in LA always intrigued me, but I rarely go to LA... and one visit when I tried contacting, got no reply at all. Most of my disappointments are guys who retired from the biz, or guys who were excellent providers first and several repeat visits, but eventually provided much less satisfying service; left me assuming they tired of the biz - or my biz.

Another good season. Perhaps it was counter-Olympics scheduling, or some other reasons....I didnt care for the two-hour episodes, particularly as it was obvious they weren't originally edited that way. Still, unlike other seasons, there was no one I would have been disappointed to see win. One snarky comment... I was getting really tired of seeing Team Yale's Evan's septum-ring, always askew.

Showed up in SF now.... http://sfbay.backpage.com/MenSeekMen/347-300-5264/96923402 No daddys review, and while there are alot of opinions in several threads here, havent seen one based on actual experience . Im interested, but hesitant without reviews

I cant think of any preferences. I suppose someone might name an occupation that elicits a negative response from me. Full time GOP fundraiser NRA lobbyist Telemarketer Laboratory test animal procurement specialist Chewing tobacco taste tester Recurring reality-tv personality-wannabe

My experiences with this If client picks up and drops off rentguy, they generally feel its part of the time together on the clock. Ive also had the experience of a rentguy insisting on their own transport from my suburban locale.... I thinks its "freedom to flee just-in-case" Ive never been asked in advance to cover cab or uber costs. I generally tip to cover that, particularly if in-call was an option. I always assumed parking was on me when a guy traveled to my location.

Why is the sexual orientation of a physician of interest? I can understand confirming that a physician is gay-friendly. Or at a minimum, not judgmental or anti-gay. I dont know whether my primary, or any specialists, are gay or straight. I told my primary I'm gay first visit when he took a history. If I ever got a sense that a doctor treating me was homophobic or anti-gay, and that it might have an effect on my care, Id switch doctors .

Read label carefully. If anywhere on can it indicates contents under pressure, dont try. If top with nozzle rotates, you may be able to twist back and forth until it works. But dont try to open it....just gonna make a mess. Take back to store and get a new one.

Same for me. Im a member, and logged in at .eu. if links are to eu site... I see the linked page. If links are to .men site, I see agreement. Tried a few times to edit the link to .eu once it populates the url field, but thats inefficient. Therefore, unless its for a 411 request regarding someone in my area.... I just stopped bothering to click most links. I'm not that curious anyway, and dont comment on rentguys, unless I have factual/experiential knowledge.

Amazon Prime video has a documentary "All Male All Nude".... its about Swinging Richards. They interview managers, dancers, a DJ, etc. Show everything. And of greatest interest to me, describe the business mechanics What the Dancers pay to work there.... they're not employees, but sign a contract and pay the house a flat rate just to start a shift.... then.... Patron rates for different venues, including fees for private show of various lengths. And the splits going to the dancer and the house. $500.00 for a one-hour VIP private! Dancers' mandatory percentage of tips, and per-shift payments to the DJ and the doorman. One memorable line for me was a dancer's "Five years ago, I was able to make $1700.00 a night; now its the same work for $150.00. And the newer dancers, they never experienced those old earnings, so they think $150.00 a night is good money." Every dancer does say its a nice place and they work with nice people. For me.... I used to frequent NobHill Theatre in SF. Enjoyed bars with house dancers in SF, FTL, Key West, DC, Chicago, and Vegas. Was always curious about Richards. Based on the views of the club, the dancers shown, and the things said, I wouldnt go to Swinging Richards. I recommend the video for those who are curious or considering a first visit.

I stopped posting on Facebook about one year ago. I still take a look every so often to be certain I haven't missed any major life events of friends and family - for there are still people who live their life on social media. I also stopped blogging a year ago. I blogged through the 2016 election. About guns, about anti-Semitism, about professional sports, and social media. I recognized that my blog primarily served me.... my need to "say my piece." There's a moment when posters must realize that "likes" and "followers" aren't necessarily demand. They read and react simply because its there. People will slow down and rubberneck at a highway accident; that doesn't mean they wanted the wreck to occur. "If you build it, they will come" is now "if you post it, they will click." I choose to refrain from adding my voice to the cacophony. ("except for here," said the hypocrite.) This post is titled "the end of Facebook." Last month FB reported the first ever decline in user hours. Facebook may go the way of AOL.... I don't share Andrew Sullivan's view that it signals a shift to pithier content and more substantive information . I have a rather disdainful view of social media, human impressionability, and herd behavior. We've bred short attention spans into the population. Humans require some level of attention and interpersonal contact... and devices have become the addictive means. I doubt we'll see a resurgence of any information requiring more than six-seconds to consume.

I didnt say I think it doesnt make sense.... I'm just surprised its legal. Are there US carriers with no children flights? I know some non-US carriers have no kid flights or child-free zones.

While it may be unexpected, muscle worship means different things to different men. So don't be shy about sharing expectations and desires with the rentguy. https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/muscle-worship-for-beginners.125094/#post-1306018

Happens to everyone by everyone. Recent months, happened to me by Rentguys Electrician who came, wrote a bid, but stopped responding when I returned the signed bid. The service used to clean gutters annually for past 10 years... provided quote but wouldnt respond to multiple messages to schedule this year. Two handyman workers who came by, walked through potential projects, stated interest, then disappeared 80% of people who say they're going to purchase anything I've listed on eBay, OfferUp, Craigslist, etc (99% of all enquirers) Countless people who've submitted resumes when Im recruiting for my clients, who schedule phone interviews, never call, don't answer, and fail to respond to follow up. Ghosting is the new norm. Craigslist is reportedly adding a category to their personals section. There'll be men4women, women4women, men4men, and ghost4ghost.

While I don't care to share the personal reasons, I hadn't been to a live play or musical in over a dozen years. Always loved the theater and attended frequently, often extended business trips to NYC for extra days to see shows. Returned to theater world last night. Scored a 10th row center orchestra ticket for Book of Mormon in San Francisco. Very enthusiastically took my seat. Then a guy, at least 6'8" with football player shoulders, sat down immediately in front of me. His head literally blocked my view of about one-third of the stage. I enjoyed the show, but spent the performance shifting left and right in my seat just to see. Folded up my coat and sat on it for an extra inch or two height. And, I'm 6'0" with short legs - sit tall. Although I heard no muttering, I'm guessing my actions had an effect on the patron behind me. And so, I wonder, do any experienced theater-goers have similar experiences, or tips for not letting a human view-obstruction affect their enjoyment?

Practical replies above. Only thing I could add.... many escorts are younger. Ghosting is a new communications norm for many under age 30. Not just escorts. Could speculate as to why. I don't believe its intentionally rude.

stamina and duration are some of the benefits of aging. As are common sense, discretion, perspective, ...... but I digress. Enjoy

Here's my suggestion Get the image address of the picture wearing a towel Go to https://www.google.com/imghp Enter the image address and search. And answer the question. In general, for rentguys' ads, or almost anything in life, whenever one wonders "is it too good to be true?" --- It is.

I started to post a photo ....but the only thing I found was ...and thats an absurd stretch

Where? I suspect thats illegal in many communities, although I personally wouldnt find it objectionable. Are there any "no seniors who need to narrate the movie to each other" showings?

Thanks. My experiences are decades old, and, apparently, no longer relevant. So, I appreciate reading this. Perhaps time to change my attitude regarding the place. Neighborhood has always been fine. And, for a city where tourism is major business, Becks is the only conventional lodging in the Castro.

#NoCelebsInDaBB_House #WhatCelebs?

I'm a major fan of BB. Seen almost every episode since Season 2. Not watching. Thinking of starting a class action lawsuit. If the advertised houseguests qualify as celebrities, the dictionary needs to be re-written. Fading, wannabe-stars and never-were's once had Love, American Style, The Love Boat, Fantasy Island, and Hotel. Now they allow themselves to be exploited in absurd dance moves, by having Anne Burrell yell at them, or by being locked in an asylum. Wow, am I out of step with today's cultural norms.

All of the theatres in my region have switched, or are switching, to recliner lounges. Very comfortable, more space, etc. I like them, but its odd to see how drastically its reduced each auditoriums' capacity. The smaller rooms at my local multiplex now hold only 48 viewers. Makes me wonder about sustainability of the business model. Its now 100% assigned seating, which bogs down the ticket purchase process significantly. And, once seated, if noisy or smelly or ??? neighbors, no switching. Mostly, positives outweigh negatives.... Today I went to our newest local theatre. All recliner.... no concession stands, all food 100% seat delivery. Every seat has a tray. You're handed a menu upon arrival. Full menus, with appetizers, entrees, burgers, etc. I saw a 10 am show, not a very new release, in a suburban locale. Probably 10-12 total viewers. There was a constant stream of usher/waitstaff throughout the movie... taking orders, bringing food, bringing more food, and then refills. Distracting with only 3-4 couples ordering.... I can only imagine its very disturbing when the auditorium is full. Im not a fan of the food service.... Any other experiences with recent theatre changes?

Because my decisions are controlled by two different organs, and I evolved with only enough blood to use one at a time.
