So many questions came up reading the OP. But bottom line for me, I wouldn't want a personal service from someone that doesn't like me. My kin were gloomy, conservative Scandinavians of yore, always fearing the worst. I have to work at coming across upbeat and pleasant, but I try. Perhaps it's good to at least act positive, even when not feeling it. I love the positive energy of my stylist. I worry the feeling may not always be mutual, but that fits with fearing the worst, I know.

I'm late to the party on this one. Just finished S1, Epi 1 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. So far it is a perfect alternative to binge after finishing Amazon's The Boys, S1, which was a crazy, wild ride. Love how the climax of the first epi was played By in the background, and then ran with the credits. I'm a sucker for a show like this. Glad I finally started.

Finished S1 tonight. Lot of good stuff in this show, and some edgy stuff. Fun surprise to see Giancarlo Esposito join the story during epi 8. The premise is starting to seem far fetched, even for a super hero story. Hopefully S2 will iron out some of that.

S2 didn't work for me. I stopped. Maybe should pick it up again.

I wouldn't touch anything or anyone connected to CF.

or at least crying over deforestation when it's for splooge.

Of course one must be careful believing anything on the internet.

I could eat him up.

I tried him a long while back based on his looks alone. For me, turned out to be a reminder to try a little research unless you want to take one for the team. That said, I am only one data point and a lot of time has passed.

Yes, rubbing nipples is a thing you'll find if you try to Google here and there about it. Surprised Dear Evan Hansen included it, but perhaps those things happen when two straight guys are let loose creating a gay moment in a musical. With a little Googling I learned that runners get chafed nipples. Why A-Train couldn't smooth over his own nipples was curious, but it worked for me. I'm up to Epi 7. One more to go.

Hellz yeah! Paper towels??? I almost wondered if this whole thread was .

Kudos @azdr0710 for understanding we can repurpose and reuse.

I'm up to epi 3. Was wondering if we get to see A-Train nekkid, and then came the locker room scene. Nice basket. Loved watching his nipples smoothed with lotion, although not sure what that was about, but I don't need to know. I think that was the point. Is anyone else hungry for Mother's Milk?'

Who do you like then?

I'm back in PS. Tried Tony again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtBHfxU2wmc:260

Yup. He's a bit of a mess. How the OP mentioned having to deal with even more extreme vulgarity sounds quite frustrating. I always add a kind word when getting in touch and again during the meet and at the departure. Hopefully most of us do more of that and less of what's unwanted.

A classmate came out after too many years in the closet. Part of his gay celebration seems to be messaging to me a lot of naked pics, including his erect pee-pee. There are times I feel like telling him to stop being vulgar and giving him a piece of my mind. I guess we need to pick our battles. I don't envy your position.

Anyone try this other Steve in PS? https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/20339/

Haven't tried him but I know the frustration. There is another dude in Palm Springs I was so anxious to try but his communication sucked. Not sure what the problem was but after two visits to PS and multiple attempts to schedule him he landed on my NEVER CONTACT list. Frickin' waste of time.

Gilbert, was it one of these?

My dad invested religiously and left Mom very well taken care of. Trouble is he died young and had huge death bed regrets, that he did not have more fun times in life. I hope you ants out there take time to enjoy each day. I expect you grasshoppers will survive fine without the critique of the ants, come what may.

Man has blamed the failure of youth since the time of Socrates. I hear Bill Mahler whine about millennials every week on his show, a reminder old habits die hard. If one looks at the writing skills of Fredrick Douglass (I'm reading his bio!) and Alexander Hamilton, one might assume we've really slumped, but perhaps there is a reason the artifacts of their writing have survived. Society likely always had an abundance or poor writing, just as we see now on the Internet.
