Not to veer off topic, but I will admit that I’ve always secretly had dreams of having a lavish wedding, but a wedding where I marry myself. Every time I’ve broached the subject to friends, they’ve all told me that I’m crazy... Is the idea of marrying oneself that ridiculous? And I can take the criticism, so let ‘er rip if you like...

Didn’t find your statement offensive or unbelievable... I just don’t think that the percentage of women that you’re referencing is that high. It is my belief (from what I’ve observed in my life), that regardless of her education, status, or financial standing, most women want to be taken care of, which includes a man that can provide. So although there are women who fall into what you’ve described, there are still tons of women getting married everyday, to become housewives.

I know.... I was questioning your response that women marry “down”, to have children. ☺️

?

Well... if you’re going to do it, go for the gusto.. I personally think most marriages (of all kinds) are shams: 1.) straight women marry for financial security 2.) straight men marry to have a woman cook, clean, manage his life and wash his dirty underwear. 3.) gay guys marry to combine incomes, and maximize vacation budgets and spending power (while screwing whomever they want in the process) So the wedding is usually the best part of any marriage.. ???

Hello Fellas, As many of us spend our hard earned money on massages, we have expectations.... when going to a spa, we expect a draped, formal massage technique, that leaves our muscles feeling relieved and rested. However, when ordering massage services from a site like RM, or MF our expectations are a bit different. Without placing reviews, now is the time for you to simply list those masseurs, who have left you feeling confused, cheated, played, mystified with the idea of a sensorial experience, all to be left with blue balls and an empty wallet. I’m talking about the guys who are flat out teases, and make their money off of selling an erotic IDEA, and false hopes... please post the RM or MF link of your massage tease. We can all now save our hard earned money, and not allow tempting pics and innuendo to play us.

I really feel like the additional information Dale added to the scenario brough proper context to the situation. And it actually showed how manipulative the client was trying to be.

That’s quite disturbing and teeters along the lines of stalking. Be careful and aware of your surroundings.... because this dude sounds absolutely nuts.

The plot thickens!!! I knew there was more to this story... you didn’t provide him with the expected “services”, so he then demands a refund for his “allergy”.... ?

1.) If he’s allergic to lavender, I’m wonderig why he didn’t specify this allergy prior to the massage. 2.) Did he not smell the lavender as he was being massaged with the lotion? Lavender has a distinctive smell. I find it strange that he didn’t notice this during the massage. 3.) If you showed him pics of the lotion used, would he be willing to show you pics of his allergic reaction to the product? I know I’m going to get slammed for this, but in my opinion, he shouldn’t be refunded. His allergy is HIS responsibility. For example, if a customer has a specific food allergy, and they visit a restaurant and order a meal, they typically confirm if that ingredient is in the dish they want, prior to ordering it. They don’t eat the food, without verification, then demand a refund after they’ve eaten the food and have had an allergic reaction. Lavender is a commonly used aromatherapy product. If one received a massage, it would make sense to ask if it is being used, if there’s an existing allergy. However, if you do decide to give him a refund, inform your local peers in the business of this customer’s allergy.... just in case he’s running a scam. Also, now you can ask prospective clients if they have any allergies before performing massages. ☺️

Thanks for the response and the detailed commentary, very insightful!!!

Hello all, Please send me a PM about your experience with Bodytendr as well. Thanks and have a great Sunday

The following quote from the poster wasn’t “logic”, it was sarcasm: “You will notice there are no ads for tampons in magazines that target gay men, but lots of ads for tampons in magazines that target women.” Now of course tampons wouldn’t be advertised in magazines catering to the gay male audience (or any male audience for that matter), as men do not anatomically/biologically have a need for tampons. However, Truvada can be used by both genders, and women are now using it as well, and have stated their disappointment in this drug only being advertised to gay men, as they have a need for it as well. The other misconception is that gay men were the original targeted group formthe drug. It wasn’t. The drug was originally targeted for sex workers. The tampon statement was a sarcastic approach to diminish my point about the advertising of the drug. It wasn’t necessary. From being on this site, I’ve learned a lot from these forums and I enjoy the sharing of knowledge. We can do this without being catty, sarcastic, passive-aggressive, and menacing with our comments. Our community has enough of this. Let these forums be a place where we can share information, respectfully disagree and learn without the bull shit.

You made some very valid points. Unfortunately they were overshadowed with the smear of sarcasm.... Being a smart ass always kills the ability to bring forth understanding on any topic. I don’t know why people think it holds any value.

That’s awful!!! Thanks for the heads up

Bumping again, to see if anyone has tried him....

Uh Oh..... Lol

Absolutely: http://hiv.rutgers.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/PrEP-Readiness-for-New-Jersey-Final-Version-2015.pdf https://stacks.cdc.gov/view/cdc/51934/cdc_51934_DS1.pdf https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.newsweek.com/cdc-recommends-prep-americans-high-risk-hiv-397963?amp=1 Also, ask any heterosexual male if his doctor has recommended PrEP for him. Then ask any gay male the same question. I can guarantee you the straight guy probably has no clue as to what PrEP even is. Also, take a peek at any gay themed magazine (Out, the Advicate, etc. ) they are loaded with Truvada ads. Magazines targeting wider audiences have no such advertisements. I’m not saying this is good or bad, but just stating that the homosexual male is the marketing target for the PrEP program.

Why do people assume that those who order escorts, do so because they can’t get laid for free? I have a good friend who has a great body, good looks, has a successful career and CHOOSES to have a regular escort. His reason? He can guarantee good sex, he will get exactly what’s expected, and he doesn’t have to deal with the bulllshit of dating, bars, apps, and all of those other things that brings out the worst in guys.

I confess, I am a mild conspiracy theorist. Understanding the history of this country and it’s government.... many beliefs aren’t too far-fetched (i.e. Agent Orange, The Tuskegee Experiment, the Hepatitis Vaccination “error”, of the 1970s) So yes, The fact that US Government is targeting the gay male population for Truvada (the same population that was targeted for Hepatitis vaccinations about 45 years ago) Gives me somewhat of a “side-eye”. Call me crazy (I can take that), but 10 years down the road, I’d hate for studies and articles to come out about side effects, or a larger issue arising from this “wonder drug” I sincerely hope I will be wrong, But it just cracks me up how so many people are so trusting and so easy to just “pop a pill”, without conducting any research.

Well, There are theories that this same government created HIV, and there’s a specific theory that was Intentionally administered to the gay population under the disguise of a hepatitis vaccine. https://ahrp.org/1978-1981-hic-aids-and-cdcs-hepatitis-b-vaccine-experiment-in-young-homosexual-men-before-these-experiments-there-were-no-reported-cases-of-hiv-or-aids-in-america/ So many people have a “if it sounds too good to be true, then it is” philosophy. https://rense.com//general94/gayvac.htm However, I sincerely hope you are correct, and that this awful epidemic will one day come to an end.

Unfortunately, many people don’t... and are happy with the “Free lunch”

It’s important that we understand that PrEP was intended to be used in CONJUNCTION with other methods of protection. The gays are now doing what the straights did with “the pill”.... having bareback sex, thinking of only ONE issue rather than the others. Everyone is now having this big barebacking party, thinking they are superhuman now they they claim to be free from any risk of HIV infection. However, no one is thinking about: 1.) the other numerous STD’s that PrEP doesn’t protect your from. 2.) how other medications one is taking will react to PrEP, and could possibly affect its overall efficacy. 3.) the possible side effects of long term use, and 4.) PrEP’s ability to work within ones system, that may already have other existing STI’s (for example, if a PrEP user currently had syphillis and gonhorrea, how is the medications reacting to the users compromised immune system to properly do its job to prevent HIV infection? Also, as a side note, I find it alarming that so many people trust the government enough to regularly take a medication which they have sanctioned to prevent a disease that they claim they can’t cure. This could be one huge unorthodoxed “clinical trial/experiment”....

It would depend on the masseur. For a trained, experienced massage therapist, 90 minutes is fantastic. For a limited skilled masseur whose focus isn’t exactly on massage therapy in it’s true form, 90 minutes could be like watching paint dry.
