You haven't met him in person, so you can't know lol

I actually tell him often that he should raise his rates.

 

I agree! /\

I've hired a lot of guys over a number of years. My time with him was the most satisfying. He was warm, lovingly so, both in and out of bed. And he was incredible in bed. Not just a quick fuck. He made it feel like a total loving experience, with everything delivered as he promises. I can be jaded. Making me feel as he did was a pretty fantastic thing. Hire him or don't. Not my call. But it's a bit odd for me to read all the commentary based on impressions from people who didn't see him. There are plenty of us who have. Part of my decision to hire him was Hung_Cody having good things to say. I expect I'm less compelling than Cody as a partner, but Hung Ivy Dean made me feel great.

So according to his website: "My top 1, best suggestion is starting out with a 6-hour session starting at 9am"  So 6 hours at $500 an hour... I can see how $3,000 is a great proposition for him. 🤔 Quite a haul for a half day's work!  But again, for me the value proposition is not there.  I don't even have to meet him to come to that conclusion.  Not when there are other awesome companions out there that are just as hot and just as much fun.  So, no deal.   But do keep trying to convince us - it is quite amusing to watch!

Hot! I saw him again yesterday and I also had the best time! Wowza indeed. Best we have ever had and actually it gets better after each meeting. Touch of god! He's just like his pics, actually he looks even better than his pics, and he does videocalls. Legit and delivers as promised. https://www.hilvp.com/. Everyone who has met him in person, including countless veterans here, they always comment it was a beyond amazing experience, "best meet up ever", etc. 

Dean mentions his webdesign is intentional to make people talk. Dean also wrote in his website:

------

"Why do you occasionally change your username and/or URL?

Privacy and discretion reasons. Changing usernames/URL also catch different people’s attention, and it helps because it makes me show up in the tab “New Guys”. If we are scheduled, we are scheduled and good to go 😉 Feel free to communicate always."

 

Great guy, delivers as promised. I've been seeing him regularly, he has been my Dom for a while- hot times...!! We usually agree on a time, I send the deposit to confirm, and we always have an incredible time. He's the best tantric therapist I've ever had too, he has healed a lot of shit/stuff in me through some of our sessions. I recommend trying his tantric skills too, it makes the experience different from any other guys all there. Definitely recommend. He’s the real deal and he delivers everything he promises, I just let him do his thing.

Regarding his work, 45+ forum veterans such as Former Lurker, Stefon_NYC, Vic, advnturpup, gersonides, armiller1979 have posted they've had the time of their life with him, and they have met him countless times. Fyton, Builder_nyc are veterans, same. FoxyG and JoeMendes are big posters, said he's great in the sack. Some other 45+ non newbie users who have met him said great things in previous threads. All users who have met him in person, newbie or old, without exception, posted on this forum a good time with him. His site has been www.hilvp.com. Some reviewers here said about their time with him: “Legit best meet up ever”.

And he just updated his skillset as of August 2022 with new things that really worked wonders for me, he delivers what he promises. He does videochats too. Among others, after a quick search, here are some people who have met him:

I had some issues getting the deposit to him, but he was understanding and we worked it out. He looks exactly like his pictures and is very good at what he does.  I echo @advnturpup's review: worth. every. penny.

I definitely plan on seeing him again...

There are some internet trolls here who haven’t met him, and then the trolls try to be funny without having met him; but 45+ veteran members here have met him and said it was the best time as you can read above, and I can vouch for that too, best time and most skilled guy I've met. And he looks even better than his pictures! 

 

 

Glad you are having fun. I am sure you enjoy the role of pom pom girl for your new Dom. But the fact of the matter is that, no matter how much you cheer, most of us still won't be willing to pay the rates he charge.  As customers, we get to choose - the value proposition just isn't there. 🤓

Thank you for letting us know. Glad you had a good time.

Pls tell him his website is a disaster (https://www.hilvp.com/?m=1) 

It is the #1 thing that makes me walk away every time...

I usually give it two weeks before I upgrade to the next OS - waiting to see how the initial rollout plays out. If I don’t see any issues being reported, I will update by end of next week. Gives me something to look forward to! 😉

Seems like it is quite urgent to update, at least to iOS 15.7 if not iOS 16. There are some security vulnerabilities to fix asap....

Apple's big update is here for iOS, tvOS and Watch.

Some nice enhancements, rounded edges and expanded customization.  

It's not the leap-forward that some expected/wanted, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Thoughts?

If you're willing to wear an Apple Watch, I'd suggest the Peloton app.

The watch handles the tracking of real-time stats and you only really need sets of three weights (15/25/35 in my case).

Peloton also offers a wide variety of bodyweight classes, yoga, etc.  Things that have nothing to do with dumbells.

If and when you want to, you can also use the app on any treadmill or rower.  

The variety of classes are huge.  The instructors are engaging and real.

Aahh... you see right through me! I am trying hard to avoid the apple watch (I really don't need one more thing to charge...)

My other dysfunction is my allergic reaction to recurring monthly fees! 🤧 Too many subscriptions are already picking my pocket! But I guess you get what you pay for when it comes to apps...

What, you skipped VisiCalc?

I did! I also skipped SuperCalc and later upgraded from Lotus 1-2-3 to Quattro Pro...the ability to generate multiple sheets (tabs) in one file blew my mind!!! 😆

Back when I was seriously working out, I kept track of exercise/sets/reps on a Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet (yes, I am that old). For the last 15 years or so I have been doing it mentally, but not doing a very good job.  Does anyone have a solid workout app that will help me track, but also suggest exercises and help keep my workouts interesting and fresh. 

Basically looking for an app that will

1. ask me for my current shape (excellent/pro, of course) 

2. then ask me what I want to work on (back and chest or the more modern push/pull approach)

3. then suggest exercises based on that and help me keep track of sets/reps/weight

I travel for work a great deal, so need something I can keep on my phone. 💪

Thanks!

4 bumps?  Someone has a serious case of the horny...  You know the rules - on the 3rd bump you have to take one for the team.  

Be sure to compare apples to apples - people in general tend to be more explicit/blunt even obnoxious online, as opposed to in person.  I am sure you have seen that even here on the forum.  Similarly, people are more likely to call you out if they find your jokes less than funny online, as opposed to in person where they may chuckle along.

Thanks.   Looks like he has dropped his rates quite a bit if he was charging $350 back the and quotes $250 now but for an hour and a half minimum that's still $375

Getting this thread back on track. I have met him a number of times - he is easy going and friendly...if you enjoy a light massage and seeing where things go, I can recommend. If you text him,  are respectful and direct about what you want, you will get all the answers you need about rate and availability.  Rate depends on service type requested and length of session. 

New York will start providing 2nd dose shots tomorrow - Sept 2.  Just posted a notification on Twitter.  It sounds like they are opening it up initially for those that have had a 1st dose 10 or more weeks ago.  When they catch up, that timeline will probably shorten down to the recommended 4 weeks between shot. 👍

When I read the response of the AFL club, Glen Waverley (to the sex act committed by their senior players in a public bar on ‘Mad Monday’) - “extremely saddened and disappointed in the behaviour….people who should know better” - I thought it was an expression of disapproval that he didn’t swallow his mate’s load.

What else is implied by ‘Sucking one for the team’? I’ve seen the brief, low-quality video. IMO it’s not a sex act; it’s more of a friendly greeting.

Anyway, Twitter is reliable here. (I hope I’m not breaking any rules by including the video here)

 

That is a little raunchy...I mean, shouldn't you ask your team mate to wash his knob before you start sucking?? 😆

So an update

 

What he essentially gave me was an overnight plus almost two days. Lots of off the clock time. I just went with the flow .  He spent the day at my hotel hanging out at the pool . Before dinner we even went to the local mall, and did a bit of shopping, but I wasn't pressured into buying him anything. It was all quite lovely and nothing bad happened. At the end of the day it boils down to chemistry and trust. There was lot of that.

I haven't had that many overnights but what truly makes a great overnight is having a provider who can fill in the gaps, keep up the pace and essentially keep me the client entertained and delighted throughout. I was tired the first night, which he respected, but when morning came he made sure that I wasn't bored.  I am by nature a very accommodating/compromising  person, and I was interested in what he wanted to do as well, which was odd, because he was very much focused on my needs, what made me happy, what I wanted to, even during the off the clock hours. I wanted this to be something he enjoyed as well, even though it was about me, I wanted him to enjoy himself.  I think he appreciated that. 

For me, a mark of a good relationship / connection, it the ability to hang out with someone with gaps in the conversation/ long moments of comfortable silence. There was lots of that.  At breakfast, after  a long period of silence, he asked me what I was thinking. I said to him. "I must be incredibly lucky to be here with you - at the very moment".   His smile back could melt anyones heart. 

I made a promise to see him again soon. It was incredibly gratifying and healing to have this gorgeous, handsome and cute Latino boy spend two days with me, plus and overnight.   

Thank you for the update. Not sure there is a "perfect recipe" for spending an extended period of time with a companion. The ultimate test, in my book, is that we both walk away happy.   Seems like this worked out for both of you so, mission accomplished! 😁

I remember suddenly losing half my friends to AIDS. I survived because I had been lucky before we understood how the virus spread and I completely stopped fucking for years... It was terrifying and a life-changing loss for all of us survivors. Remember body electric and those j/o parties the health department used to run in SF? A lot of us cultivated an appreciation for massage as a response to the HIV epidemic. Touch without penetration or exchange of fluids was safe sex. Monkey pox is replaying the trauma for me. I miss my weekly massages. I just had an appointment and couldn't stop worrying about who the therapist had touched before me...  I had to ask him to leave. This feels like 1987 all over again.  Hard stop for me until I'm fully vaccinated. 😢

I understand that you feel that way. I grew into manhood during a time when HIV/AIDS was a death sentence. But monkeypox is not the same thing. Not even close. Try to take a deep breath and don't let your emotions overrule your logic.

Reporting back: he is a fun and attractive man. We had a good time - I will repeat. He is a little shorter than I expected, but not to the extent that it bothered me. Muscular and easy to communicate with. 👌

Anyone seen him recently?  Looking to hire as escort, so his rudimentary massage skills, mentioned before, does not bother me.   I tend to have bad luck with Latin men, even though I find them very attractive so would like to get a sense for his skills and personality...

I don't see an active thread for Leo. 

https://rentmen.eu/LeoSweetwood

His Rentmen ad was active earlier in August and he was on Grindr in NYC yesterday.  

Has anyone seen him recently? Last comments were back in 2018 and along the lines of "he has a bit of maturing to do - experience was meh". 

Hoping he has grown into a more mature provider... Comments on experience would be appreciated.

This simplifies the vaccine in question. It was developed to counter the threat of smallpox, which was seen as chiefly a bioterrorist threat in today's context. It had the side benefit of being able to ward off Monkeypox which was mostly a scourge in Africa.

Monkeypox, while less virulent than smallpox, still kills in Africa and could kill a few unlucky individuals in Europe and North America. 

And yes, when vaccines are available to ward off an epidemic, we expect our public health authorities to make it available quickly to meet a threat to public health. It's like having insurance when you need it. That's what governments should be good at doing. But they need to be supported by a public that sees its own interests and is willing to pay for them.

Smallpox is a different topic. The USA has a large stockpile of smallpox vaccine available. That stockpile can be released on short notice in case of a bio attack - that is the "insurance" you are looking for. The smallpox vaccine in stockpile is not suitable for those with a compromised immune system (like gay/bi men with HIV).  Which is why it was not released to combat the monkeypox outbreak which impacted gay/bi men for the most part. 

To date nobody in the USA has died from monkeypox. 

So let me see if I have this right.  You expect a niche vaccine, to a non fatal disease, to be available to anyone who wants it at a moment's notice?  🤔

You need to seriously reconsider your expectations.  But to make you feel better, here is a picture of Chris Evans. (Though I suspect whining and complaining makes folks feel better too.)

Could not find a thread on this Hottie (there were threads on "JP" of NYC, but not the same guy). 

Any experience or insight?  His ad is not new, but he comes across as fresh and lively in his RM videos.  Young vers jock look? 

My experience with him, about a year ago, in setting up an appointment was very interesting.  His rate was higher than I would usually agree to but it was my birthday and I wanted to splurge. His OnlyFans videos are hot so I was motivated. Then he started to ask for more amenities. Black car only to bring him in from Stamford, CT (no cabs or ubers!) A room at the Equinox (the Courtyard won't do!)   At that point I walked away. It wasnt only what he asked for but how he asked. My impression was that this young man still had some growing up to do. 🤷‍♂️. Maybe you will have better luck.

I beg to differ @LookingAround

I’ve ALWAYS cared about how my young men dress. I like a young man to look very clean and smart. And if a preppy young man devotes himself to pleasing me, I’m happy to take him shopping for clothes - everything from good underwear and swimwear to cashmere blazers and formal wear.
 

I see it as a gift to myself as I can enjoy how he looks when we are out together. Indeed, I get almost as much pleasure from smartly dressing a nice young man as I do from undressing him 😎

Agreed.  The flowers are cool.  Also like the blue with white clouds.  Will wait for someone to rip off, I mean, come up with a similar design via Amazon and buy them there.

I took in all your advice and decided to test his resolve. We went to the store and looked the socks over. He confirmed that he liked them and wanted them. So we walked over to the ATM and I pulled out the cash - it was a nice thick bundle of Benjamins. I handed it over to him and said: "Feel the cash in your hand. Now go feel those socks. Do you realllllyyy want to spend this money on those socks. The cash is yours, whatever you decide." We went back to the store and he promptly backed out!!!  Dave Ramsey may be right - it hurts to spend cash, swiping a card it doesn't hurt like physical cash. 

I then took him down to Canal Street where he found knock off versions of the socks (and a few other items he liked) from the street vendors. Walked away having spent a fraction and still satisfied. Gonna let it sink in a bit and then we will have the "cost vs value" discussion. He's a smart young man - he will do okay! 😎
