Those are the Czech Twins (from Ukraine) in Bali and in bed.

Many of them are listed on both cities. But you are right. Lots of cute guys. Have no idea of rates in India.

As you know, there are lots more things to do and see in Montreal. Botanic Gardens. Marché Jean Talon (oyster bar, mango store with 29 varieties, meat markets with dozens of kinds of paté, etc.). Museum of Fine Arts. Place Jacques Cartier (street entertainers and outdoor cafes) and Rue St. Paul (art galleries and restaurants) at midday and for lunch. Underground City. UQAM (U of Quebec in Montreal with half of campus underground and all connected, and then connected to the "national"/provincial library).

The boys on the right and left are the "Czech Twins," although they come from Ukraine. They have a very busy Instagram and OF.

Thank you very much for a pleasant review on two stripper bars which do not get much coverage these days.

Thank you for the excellent photos; it looks like a very interesting, enjoyable, and important exhibit. The Met has prepared a 29 min. video tour of the exhibit which is very good. The Harlem Renaissance and Transatlantic Modernism - The Metropolitan Museum of Art WWW.METMUSEUM.ORG Exhibition now on view at The Met

Yes.

Steve Osrow, the founder of the Continental Baths on the Upper West Side in Manhattan, has died in Australia. The Baths established Bette Midler and Barry Manilow and other entertainers and was a major center of gay activity in the early 1970s. The NYT has a nice, long obituary today with details about the Baths.

Of course. The Dirksen Federal Building is in downtown Chicago and has the Calder stabile titled "Flamingo" out in front. International style, all steel and glass and not very attractive otherwise.

Once upon a time, in the good old days, there were agencies that specialized in these young men. You could call and order, and a beautiful young man fitting your desires would be at your door at the requested time. In Montreal, for many years, Bels Hommes provided, it was said, 95% of the male escorts in Montreal. They provided all ages and sizes, but their specialty was beautiful twinks and twunks. Unfortunately the owner had legal problems, and the agency has not existed for years. In Washington, D.C. there were two agencies which specialized in these young men for years, and they were reliable and always had someone at very reasonable rates. But Washington has lost all of these. I had many happy afternoons and evenings in both cities with neighbors' sons. In Montreal, the exchange rate was highly favorable to the U.S. dollar, and you could easily afford one young man in the afternoon and another in the evening. And Taboo had 25-35 beautiful sons every night. But times have changed.

Thank you. I shall look it up and hopefully one day enjoy being there.

Wonderful photos of the High Line. Thank you. What is the fourth last picture (for those of us out-of-towners)?

Not sure which forums works best here. The NYT Magazine today has a long interesting article on the gay cowboy in history. Out West, the Gay Cowboy Roams Free The frontier has long been a symbol of American masculinity. Now a rising generation of artists are creating a new queer mythology.

Galatzine is actually a dark haired man. They dyed/bleached his hair to make him look more "British." Taylor is the sixth of eight kids in a Mexican-American family from Chicago and speaks Spanish fluently. He has five sisters and two brothers. The sisters all look like him, and the younger brother, Grant, does also. The older brother (must be quite older) is going bald and so appears different. His father, from Mexico, is handsome, and his mother (American born) is a pretty woman.

There are far more cute twink escorts advertising on RM in Istanbul than there are in either Montreal or Fort Lauderdale. Charming twinks, nicely developing twunks, then slim muscular soccer players. Wow! Talk about Turkish delights!
