!?!$500!?! A six pack of Heniken beer, a box of Cheez-its, cab fare and I'm all yours, babe...just keep the lighting low, really low.

One man's shithole is another man's paradise. At least sometimes!

In Alaska, you'll find single men on land up there working for the summer... And they're horny as hell.
When you get into port, turn on your Grindr.  The whole page won't even fill up because it's so desolate, but I managed to have sex in almost every port.  Locations to meet up are still hard to find: I had sex in the bathroom of a guy's commercial office, I had sex in the basement of a realtor's client's house, I had sex in the break room behind the front counter of a hotel.  This was all on a 13 night Alaska cruise and land tour

The important thing is whether they look like their pictures or not. 
I don't care if someone who is 40 advertises as 35, maybe he also does it out of privacy. Even on dating sites some folks lie about their age....

A higher price doesn’t guarantee a better moment and a lot gratification comes from being satisfied in your own mind.  I’ve had drop dead gorgeous guys that were just meh and regular joes who had me screaming for more and they didn’t cost anything.  I have my rules and I stick to them, even if I can afford it.  If they treat me well I’ll pay them more.  

your point is well-taken & there are many clues in providers online profiles to use for vetting.  
we all have different levels of risk tolerance & mine is extremely low.  if I see any mention/references of pnp, party or anything goes, that’s an immediate NO for me.  I interpret that to mean the provider is risky with their own body and likely won’t treat mine any better.  It also tells me they have poor judgment  & likely someone I’d rather avoid.
I look for providers that have clear ground rules because it tells me they are running a business & serious about what they do.  Not somebody looking to make a quick buck who will agree to do anything
Pursuing unknown people online who will engage in an “abuse” scene is asking for trouble imo 
 

I can see why it would be a concern for you. You previously posted that you are looking to be: Roughly used by homophobic, abusive, selfish, conservative men
Your words. So yeah, approaching those men will certainly put me on edge too. If you are fishing in a shark tank, dont be surprised when you end up tussling with a shark. For most people, who hire well reviewed gay men who enjoy the company of other gay men, it is an outlier, not the rule.

And, while bullying was always present in school in some form, you used to be able to go home and forget about the bully until the next day.  Or, you could learn how to avoid that bully in the school hallways.  Now, that bully exists online 24/7, and there's no avoiding him or her no matter where you are.

The drugs may be coming from south of the border, but to me the real problem is why is there so much DEMAND for them on this side of the border?  If we'd stop buying, maybe they'd stop selling.

I'm very sorry this happened to you.  It must have been very scary.  I'm glad you came out ok.  But please consider letting us know who he is so none of us meet him.

correct - the attack on trans people now is because they are perceived as the most vulnerable among our larger community.  It’s the beginning of an attack on established gay rights.  Just like Roe/abortion was not settled law, don’t for one minute think the Obergefell (required states to license and recognize same sex marriage) decision is also settled law.
In the fight for equal rights, there are no passive observers.  We are either allies & support, or you are against.  Peoples lives are in the balance

He was repugnant.

He was repugnant.

He was no friend of me or mine. He specialized in cloaking his hate in his religious point of view. (I don’t hate gay people, God hates gay people etc). Speaking only for myself: he will not be missed. 

To imitate what Bette Davis said on learning of Joan Crawford's passing, speaking only good of the dead: Pat Robertson is dead. Good.

And for some, they have many professional talents, and intellect, to boot. For example, I’m a licensed architect with a decade of experience designing and leading teams on resort hospitality and multi family residential projects. I love my jobs and I’m very good at all of them.
Sadly, this work pays 2X more than all those years of school and training and experience I invested in my professional career. It takes just as much investment to be a doctor or lawyer, yet my sisters who are schoolteachers make about the same.
Sometimes it’s about doing whatever makes sense for you to live your life in the ways that work for your goals. I truly do love architecture, but at the end of the day, money is more important. At least this way I can retire before I die.

What about us then? What’s your opinion of the other side of the trade?

So here’s my Vegas story.   He shows up, in fact we fly together.  We check in and he NEEDS the Room for a couple hours of “Work” so I meet some friends for Drinks, but not before he asks for his deposit.    I thought well he’s here so no big deal.   He finally arrives for a drink and says he’s hungry so he departs and is acting very removed from me and the evening.    
When I get back to the Encore, he’s gone with his belongings and my 2k.    
Simply the WORST.  
Nor does he resemble the pictures.    

at least you're not in Utah!
I wonder what's next? How more bureaucratic tricks to make access to porno more difficult?

In late April I witnessed a hit and run killing of an innocent woman on a scooter in the Tenderloin. She was dragged underneath a large black SUV for half a block until the car paused, ran over her again, and then sped off into the night. The woman died.
Since then I have been haunted by the horror of this....the sadness of a life gone and her family/friends having to hear that she was killed on a Sunday evening by a callous driver....and the shock that someone could be so uncaring as to drive away. I think this person will never be brought to justice, and the thought of that sickens me.

googling "tenderloin san francisco" brings up this rosy summary seemingly written by the area Chamber of Commerce!:
The famously gritty Tenderloin has underground art spaces, classic concert venues such as the Great American Music Hall and historic theaters staging Broadway and indie shows. Its funky, colorful streets feature a mix of upscale, trendy and casual restaurants. Nightlife ranges from dark dives slinging beer and shots to speakeasy-style bars mixing craft cocktails. Little Saigon is known for its Vietnamese eateries. ― Google
