If you're asking this question, perhaps you already see it as a red flag and are trying to justify something that you don't feel right about?  I trust my gut instinct, so if I had a question like this, I'd move on.  Notwithstanding any potential emotional damage to the brothers (which is really their choice), I think you run a risk of feeling your own regret over the situation.
For this hobby, all of us have to get past the idea that we are somehow responsible for the people we hire.  They make their adult choice and we make ours.  For me, I'm OK with this up to the point that I push someone into something that they would not normally do.  Hiring someone who is already signed up is one thing; getting someone new to sign up is not something I want to be part of.

I did meet Joey Stefano for about 12 seconds. 

I get an bone every time I watch a clip with Gordon Grant, and I don't feel it's creepy at all

Mark is really the complete package you want in a masseur. He gives a strong, trained massage incorporating sensual throughout. He is open to many types of happy endings. Feel free to PM me if you want more details. You won't be disappointed in any way.

I'd suggest you contact him, he's pretty open about his sessions. I had a great time when I saw him, and I'd see him again if I lived in LA.

Mark is great, I just saw him yesterday and highly recommend

In the most backwards parts of the country a threesome with brothers is called just another threesome

I will ask!  If I hire them, I will ask each for a DNA sample and I will taste if there's a difference. 😛

My thanks to @CheckCar for the very thoughtful posts.  Has give me a lot to think about. 

I was born the same year as Stonewall, which puts me in the age cohort that the term GenX was invented for. And my segment of GenX is often described as the generation that came of age during a tumultuous time of exciting and terrifying change (before/after home video, before/after MTV, before/after the fall of the Berlin wall, before/after AIDS, before/after the internet). I was also very precocious, looked to be in my later teens even in my earliest teen years, and intentionally sought out anonymous sexual encounters with men before the word AIDS was being mentioned on national news broadcasts. I was lucky. Most of my comparably sexually precocious peers were consumed by the same diseases (and addictions) that swept away so many of the men ahead of us, age-wise. But for much of my 20s, I lived in NYC and considered myself a professional homosexual, working as an attendant in a gay sex club, as an "operator" for a gay phone sex line and as a producer for a gay theatre. In those years, I attended so many memorials/funerals, joined more protests than I can count and was part of (or party to) so much sex. Such a formatively fun and painful cluster of years. I left NYC shortly after Giuliani was first elected, right about about when the "cocktail" was being introduced, right before RENT and Ellen both came out, and right as lesbian/gay mainstream visibility went from covert to overt in what felt like a matter of seconds -- largely thanks to the internet. It's hard for me sometimes to even wrap my brain around what is was like to find other gay men before I had dial up...

Professionally, I spend a lot of time with LGBTQ+ young adults born in the later 1990s and early 2000s and it's a daily adventure for me to try to bridge the distance to the recent past (ie the first half of my life), while also learning from them about what they're seeing, feeling and experiencing now -- in this incredibly tumultuous time of exciting and terrifying change that we're all living in. We might as well have grown up on different planets, given how different their young lives have been, but they're often very (if quietly) curious to know more about what it was like "before" -- not so much because they want to be like me or have a life like mine but mostly because they are (like most of my friends were at that age) looking for a way to live happily in a world that doesn't feel designed for their happiness. All of which is to say: for me, being an elder is about witnessing what younger folks are experiencing, inviting those who are able/interested to also witness what you have experienced and, in so doing, learning with (not from) each other...

 

Let’s keep one thing in perspective:  When Pride originated, there were locations in the US where you could be arrested/jailed for being homosexual. For being suspected of it. 
The relief we currently enjoy from that very real threat (and more) is something that powerful interests do not want to continue. Let’s stay united at this time to protect all people whose sexuality and/or gender make them targets! Drag is not dangerous to anyone, except for the few who haven’t rehearsed enough in the heels!

many of the most assertive, mean, entitled, and God fearing voices in this forum wish they could pass as straight I have a feeling they just can't and therefore go after drag queens, trans, etc. I wonder if to them they're all the same... 
this is how all this madness became mainstream... (sarcasm emoji)

I'd post this in the political forum, but it would probably  earn me another 'time-out' 😎




 
 

Thank you for this timely post.  I also would like to find a way to be more helpful.  

you missed the point... everything is ok if you're straight and white.
didn't you say you did cocaine in your youth and a line is nothing but drinking 4 coffees at once... 
You've shared with us some painful memories of your college years. Maybe some of those folks you allegedly saw in distress were also intoxicated because they got assaulted. 

That's what 'carnival' is all about, whether its gay or non-gay. Taking on other identities for a moment  
 

Pretty much describes every frat party and bankers party I have been too.  Don’t send your kids to college and keep them out of the business world. 

If you don't like it don't look.
As a proclaimed bisexual man, you're not that different in the eyes of many who would want sodomy and other things to be illegal again. 

Well...none of those people were coked up / naked and giving blowjobs on my doorstep last night....so..I don't get the comparison

I’ve been accused of being straight acting and appearing.  I accept that.  I also accept our community comes in many colors.  It’s vibrant, exciting, sometimes exotic. Sometimes weird.  All are welcome in my book 

You see them as a joke, perhaps others see them as entertainers. Do you feel the same way about Elton John, Kiss, Marilyn Manson, Madonna, Katy Perry, David Bowie, Liberace, Prince, Cher, Lady Gaga, Bjork, Michael Jackson, clowns, mimes, figure skaters, etc. ?

Pride is not about pleasing straight people or to fit whatever concept they have about us.

Sad isn't it ? I live in NYC in the heart of Greenwich Village. The outrageous costuming and ridiculous behavior I witnessed this weekend at the "Gay Pride Parade" was really nothing to be "Proud" of.  Why do so many gay men willingly turn themselves into a joke ? Would be nice if gay men and women would just feeling comfortable being people instead of cartoon characters, built from the worst of what straight people think about them.

I thought from the title this thread is about things we're tired of. I'm tired of drivers who move to the far left lane on the highway and then go the speed limit right next to someone in the middle lane who's going the speed limit. I saw a tiktok about this, and the guy complaining said, "Don't they know the left lane is for people who have enough money to pay tickets?"
