KeepItReal

I am referring to the edge where I trimmed...

Curious as to your thoughts on manicures. I've always taken care of my hands, keeping nails short, neat and smooth, but I've noticed that here in the North East of the USA a lot of guys (of all orientations) get manicures. It isn't my thing. When I meet guys with nails that are "shiny" or have polish or gel on them, it doesn't really do anything for me. In fact, sometimes it seems a little over the top - like guys that get french tips. (Yeah, I'm being judgmental. I'll apologize later. ) Your thoughts?

I was on Grindr the other day and thought I caught a glimpse of Adam - icon disappeared before I could click on it. Can anybody confirm that he is back in NYC? (And please tell me he got rid of the tombstone facial hair!!!) https://www.daddysreviews.com/search/Active/adam/adam_simply_nyc

Not that I am aware of. Only Masseurfinder.

While I was away over the holidays, two of my favorite guys relocated to LA from NYC: Ken - https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/37571/ Tim - https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/28465/ Don't miss them! (Consider it a consolation prize for the super bowl loss...)

All great recommendations (apart from the 'watch less football' bit) - thank you!

Will you participate in 'Giving Tuesday'?? I have two charities I favor. One is particularly close to my heart - takes care of homeless youth on the streets of New York City, many of whom are LGBTQ and got kicked out by their families. It sounds cliche, but when you talk to these kids you find they are mostly from southern and mid western states. Heartbreaking - I am not a crier, but it is HARD to come face to face with their reality. The firm I work for will match my gift on Tuesday, so I save up for the opportunity.

Recommended to me by @FrankR about a year ago (will include link to Daddy's review below) - he is a regular; I have seen him a couple of times too. Happy to endorse and will gladly repeat - manly muscular and attractive guy, not a dainty, pretty boy, gym bunny. Very consistent, quality massage. Can't go wrong with him as far as I am concerned - good knowledge of the body and muscles as you would expect from somebody with his training; also includes some stretching. A bit on the quiet side - a comfortable quiet, English is fine but I prefer it that way anyway. Not the sullen type at all from my experience (I know some people tend to think of eastern European guys that way) - friendly from my experience. Provides good background music if the quiet worries you. I have always left happy. Thumbs up! https://www.daddysreviews.com/search/Active/evgeniy/evgeniy_nyc

Like so?

Deserving of a bump.

I believe this quote applies here:

It came on the other night on the Food network, during a show that dealt with a souffle that wouldn't rise...I couldn't help but think: well, I know how to fix that!

I found him to be a friendly guy, super hot body but average massage skills. He was quite chatty, but I was totally entertained by ogling at his bod. Was amazed at how much time he spent on my feet, he commented on how nice they were, so not sure if he has a "thing" for feet, but it came across that way. So far nobody has reported leaving happy. I can attest to the quality of his ass - I will join @FrankR in staring at it, once it is up on that pedestal. If he was more interactive I would be a regular.

Previously discussed here, but not much in terms of first hand experience: https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/411-on-maxadonis.138622/

It is not uncommon. There has been a lot of stories about this, particularly in the military, for years. Due to the shame the victim often feels, it is significantly under reported. Years ago (90s) there was a storyline about this on Hollyoaks as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luke_Morgan

Do you know anybody who has transitioned? I've watched a trans friend go through the stages of coming out and transitioning over the past 3 years. Still in awe of how big an undertaking it is. I had the opportunity to speak at my firm about that experience today (transgender awareness week) and how rewarding it was to be an advocate for her. It's not just the actual transition and getting a physician your are comfortable working with, but also the daily BS like getting your ID documentation updated by a government bureaucracy that is trying at the best of times.

Perhaps you would care to reconsider when you look at all the rentmen reviews? It sounds like there is more to the story...
