Should gay porno embrace body positivity?
+ nycman replied to marylander1940's topic in Fetish Forum
Holy crap, that was you in town yesterday? God, I wanted to run you over. grin -
People don’t consider you a "happy" person….do they?

Don’t wanna be a sad old gay man?….then don’t be a sad old gay man. It really is that simple. Don’t overthink it.

Gay people often have older brothers. Why? And does it matter?

It sounds like you think those are two different groups of people? grin “Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.)” ― Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass -
I don’t think you understand how math (or Russian Roulette for that matter) works, but good luck.

Statistics aren’t shaming and they don’t care about your feelings. They’re facts. Sex is always a game of Russian Roulette. I’m just pointing out how many bullets are in the chamber. Best of luck.

As my father once said to me when I asked for a loan, "Son, if the bank doesn’t think you’re a good risk, why the fuck should I?" He had a point and I learned a lesson. Whenever someone asks me for a loan, I either say "no" or I give them the money and never expect it back. I will not ask nor hint to be repaid. I will however, never make another "loan" until the first one is repaid. So far that has worked for me. I’m not an ass about helping others. But I’m also not a sucker. And in general our friendships have remained intact. Whether or not they repaid me.

I’m sorry but those pictures HAVE to be ancient. I’m sure (or hope?) he still looks good, but I doubt he still looks THAT good. And for the record, if he can maintain 63 5 star reviews….some of you 4.9 star whores are doing something WRONG.

How dare you question the wisdom of Shakespeare?!?!? Troglodyte. (and yes I had to look up the spelling of that word….what’s your point?) grin

Chalk it up as a lesson. "Neither a borrower nor a lender be; For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry." - Polonius, Hamlet Scene 1, Act 3

Wait until his wife finds out he spent $13 on her birthday present!
+ nycman replied to samhexum's topic in The Lounge
If the clerk figures it out, and can prove it while you are in the store, then yes I think you are obligated to return the money. Mistakes are not lottery tickets. Obviously, if they can’t prove it or if they never figure it out, well then it’s just your conscience we’re dealing with, not the law. But back to the original case: As @BuffaloKyle pointed out, a "contract" between the buyer and seller doesn’t exist until the goods are paid for. Most intelligent companies have a "terms of use" section on their online website that states a contract doesn’t exist until the goods are paid for and delivered. They also have a statement explicitly stating that they don’t have to honor any clerical mistakes. That doesn’t mean local jurisdictions (include Mexico), won’t have laws that say goods must be sold at their advertised price, even if it’s a mistake. And anyone who works in the international market knows laws and judges will favor the local party. Period. Also, if a company is routinely making "clerical errors", and pattern can be identified, there’s little doubt the judge will charge the seller with false advertising and rule in the purchasers favor. In the end, right or wrong, Cartier was smart to settle and lick their wounds. -
It’s like an unfinished symphony!

I’m not a lawyer. I think the principle is that the purchaser knew (or should have known) that the offer was a typo / mistake, thus the "contract" isn’t enforceable. I believe Cartier would have gotten away (under US law, no clue about Mexico), with not fulfilling the order and simply refunding the $13. The PR aspect is another matter, and Cartier was smart to just write off the fuck up. Had he ordered 20 pair, I have no doubt Cartier would have fought harder (and had an even stronger case that the purchaser was attempting to exploit a clerical error). -
Just to add on, HIV remains rampant and often untreated in Africa. PREP, PEP, wrap your Willy, get routine testing, light candles, give alms to the poor. The "odds" are NOT in your favor.

Was there ever a "good" time?……grin

At $1k per session…..I am not. Even with the @Coolwave35 golden seal of approval, which we all know is basically priceless. If @Coolwave35 likes you, you’re fun….. but often pricey. And yes, the "sub" part of the ad has me second-guessing myself….grin

At this point, I would put any prevention of gonorrhea by DoxyPEP into the category of "lucky side effect that won’t last". I’d still consider DoxyPEP for prevention of chlamydia and syphilis though. Since gonorrhea is already largely resistant to doxycycline, I don’t see the real harm in driving its doxycycline resistance to 100%. Although that doesn’t take into account, the idea that by selecting gonorrhea that is resistant to doxycycline, you are also selecting gonorrhea that is resistant to other drugs, and thus driving up antimicrobial resistance across-the-board. Certainly it’s going to be an interesting experiment to watch, because I don’t think DoxyPEP is going away anytime soon. A genomic perspective on the near-term impact of doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis on Neisseria gonorrhoeae antimicrobial resistance - PMC WWW.NCBI.NLM.NIH.GOV Post-exposure prophylaxis with doxycycline (doxyPEP) is being introduced to prevent bacterial sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

And just like that… I’m interested. grin

Actually, it looks like the results aren’t so bad. I mean, DoxyPEP had very good reduction in chlamydia and syphilis rates, and a significant (although not great) reduction in gonorrhea rates. Unfortunately, I predict wide spread DoxyPEP use will soon lead to near universal doxycycline resistance in gonorrhea, making it useless for gonorrhea prevention. And although the meningitis vaccine didn’t show a great reduction in gonorrhea, there appears to be some. Not bad for vaccine that wasn’t targeted at gonorrhea. I think people got a little too excited about the early results from this trial. Nonetheless, I think it shows a real gonorrhea vaccine might be feasible. Overall, I’d chalk this up as good, although not great news.

Could it be?….yes. Is it?….no clue. Go see a doctor.
