Thanks!

This is why it's useless to give women drivers a map.

Thanks! It looks like he is based out of New York City now.

I have been on several Bears cruises: Adventure Bears River Cruise (charter) Arno's Bear Cruise (group) Cruise4Bears with Spartacus (charter) Plus a handful of other gay group and gay chartered sailing (Vacaya, RSVP, OUTbound travel, Pied Piper Travel). I have also been on a dozen cruises that didn't have a gay group on board when I was traveling with family and friends. I absolutely always look for gay groups or gay chartered sailings for my future travels. I have not been on Virgin ships, because they look a little too Ikea for my tastes, and I look forward to conversation in the main dining room each night with others in the gay group. Because Virgin has so many restaurants, the Bears group fine print says they only meet together the first evening for dinner.... Then after that everyone is on his own for the remainder of the evenings to find a location and dining partner each night. That's just not appealing to me. For my personal preference, I look for cruises with traditional dining, but also for men's only sauna and steam rooms on board to suit my desires for leisure "cruising" activities

#MeToo. I have also, but I don't post those locations lest local Business License inspectors get tipped off and shut the place down. First rule about Fight Club...

You had me at ✊ 🍆 ⏰ ✊ 😍

When I hire for a college rape fantasy experience, I message the provider in advance to let him know that he has my consent, even if I verbally say "no" or "slow down" to have his way with me. The best providers are good at talking up what they want to do with me, so by action time I'm mentally turned on and ready for it. Edit: This is true for men of various ethnicities I hire. But I don't hire the "Toxic" ones... And I don't pay in advance.

Despite the effort of one person to make the topic of Toxic Providers about color, I stand by the group consensus that offers recommendations to not set oneself to be a vulnerable victim: 1. Don't pay in advance, unless you've hired the gentlemen before. 2. If one wants "comfort", rent a hotel room bed not a bathhouse bench. 3. Cash is king. No record of transaction. Communicate via various messenger apps that protect one's identity. 4. Block anyone who begins threats. Don't feed the troll. These tips should work with hired gentlemen of all colors. Edit: Kudos to the original poster for not mentioning the providers color in the original post. Several recommendations were made how to handle the situation, prior to knowing what the escort looked like. Those recommendations should still be valid.

I've contacted some in Europe, when I was in Europe.

There's an old saying "You can't rape the willing". When I meet a cute college frat-type guy at a bar or swimming pool, I jokingly tell him up front, "There's no need to roofie me: I'm a sure thing." 😉 🎉 😈 My first time at a bathhouse was suggested by a masseur I hired. It was no spa, but I got my sensual massage nonetheless. The masseur had his own room with a table. Rather, I see the client as playing the party of the victim every step of the way. He didn't want to go to a bathhouse, yet he went. He didn't want to get undressed. He didn't want to pay up front, yet he did. Act like a victim, and one will become a victim. A better title for this thread would be: What not to do as a Client.

It's probably okay to begin by deleting the telephone numbers that use exchange names: KLondike 5-1234, for example

I'm anxiously awaiting announcements for 2027 cruises. I've had my 2026 cruises booked since late 2024.

That's EVERY room at a bathhouse. I haven't seen a AAA rating giving any bathhouse room a 5 Diamond review. If one wants comfort, go to a Hilton

The guy above is probably a masseur, not a masseuse. If looking for a masseuse (female), you won't find many recommendations on Company of Men.

I am so sorry this has happened to you

I stopped reading after this. Never pay in advance. That stops most problems.

😍

I will 💯 attend. I already booked that weekend at El Mirosal gay hotel nearby the INNdulge, as I've done the last 2 years.

As the weather grows cooler, so begins the longing for the warm Palm Springs sun surrounded by beautiful Company of Men members. I've booked a stay in Palm Springs for the April 9-13, 2026, weekend in hopeful anticipation that someone will continue the tradition and declare a meeting spot for a meal or pool, etc. I'm grateful in advance for any volunteer who wants to be "host" to announce that a dinner or pool gathering is happening. My swimsuit (birthday suit) is already packed!

HoleSoSmooth spends time both in NYC and in Connecticut. He's a good friend of Bode, an escort in NYC who attended the annual Palm Springs event the last couple of years. I haven't tried HoleSoSmooth out yet, but he cums (pun intended) highly recommended by my aquaintances who know him.

Agree, I do the same. Also, some airlines have begun using have recognition in lieu of boarding pass at the gate. I opt out of those as well.

The biggest recurring successful meeting like this has been the annual Palm Springs Gathering hosted every April by our own @Oliver, although 2025 gathering may have been the last one hosted by Oliver (we are all forever grateful for the effort Oliver has put in every year to make this happen). Following the success of this gathering, the organizer may ask the Moderator to pin the NYC gathering announcement to the top of the Lounge when it is first announced. Interested attendees would be directed to contact the organizer and provide an email for communication regarding the venue. If given several months notice, many out of town clients and providers may be interested. The annual Palm Springs Gathering seems to have had about 50 men in attendance, with a 60/40 split of clients/providers. The NYC gathering could be Townhouse Bar one night, then dinner on the following night, as a suggestion. Something substantial enough to make it worthwhile to block it the dates and be sure to attend, but not too elaborate and flexible on the number of people.
