Admin Warning: Rules are clear about no discussions re: minors.

But they are old enough to know right from wrong. In the same way they know not to go around stealing. And if an upper age teen steals something significant, then they go to reform school. It's one thing for a teen to experiment or have sex with someone their own age. And yes I know there are probably lots of MC members here who liked significantly older guys when they were teens, and possibly went after older guys and are fine today. That they, or anyone else, got away with it is not an excuse. There's still a good reason for the laws. And yes teens by definition are not fully mature, but upper level teens still share some culpability when they deliberately flout laws made for their own protection, posting profiles, and going after older guys.

My mistake. It was late when I read this. Thank you for pointing it out. Gman

Wishing you all the best. Gman

I would almost bet you a million dollars that he is nowhere near 48. #1. If he were 48, he'd be one of the youngest looking 48 year olds I have ever seen. And #2 at one time-say 5 years or so ago- I had access to his personal Facebook page. I think it's since been deleted. But I remember there being college information which would in no way make him anywhere near 48 years of age. @coriolis888, I initially agreed with you. But if you look at picture 12 in his private pictures-there is a similarity in the face. I wondering if maybe he might have had some drastic weight loss or plastic surgery. Gman

Actually you should blame both. There are laws that say minors can't be on Grindr. It's for their protection. The minors are willingly breaking those laws just as much as the pedophiles going after them. And some of these minors have an attraction to older guys. It's like they are offering drugs to an addict. Gman

It's still a prescription medication. Most pharmacies should have it. Gman

I haven't. But I'm wondering if there is still a need to order Viagra from outside the country now that it's generic. In my area of Texas you can get #60 tablets of the 100 mg generic Viagra for about $22 at Costco using the GoodRx app. Gman

I'm a fan of air conditioning, so I might have been able to tolerate the heat. It was really the population size I was worried about regarding meeting people. Gambling

Back when I had a career about a decade ago, I interviewed for job in Tucson. I don't know/the city itself didn't impress me that much. I was wondering if I'd be able to make friends there. On the other hand while I have had good friends in the past, it always feels somewhat like a miracle when it occurs -currently I'm on such an extremely long dry spell of having friends that I won't even tell you how long it's been because it's both ridiculous and depressing. Since I do have this difficulty making friends, I always feel I need as large a city as possible (minus maybe NYC, LA, and Chicago) to give me more of a population to find friends from. And I wasn't sure Tucson was it. Another thing-- how are you with weather? I grew up on the South Plains of Texas in a semi-arid area. Tucson is arid-arid. Tucson looks like a desert (of course they say that about my hometown too. Tucson, however is really the desert). My hometown has an annual rainfall of about 19 inches. Tucson has an annual rainfall of about 12 inches. But I'm also talking about heat. The hotel I stayed at stayed at was a parking lot away from where the interview was taking place. Now the interview was sometime in the fall. I think it was October. Here I am in a suit and tie walking -not extremely far-across the parking lot to the interview building. I think it was already 80 degrees at 9 AM. I was definitely sweaty by the time I entered the building. ( I was also looking at the number of escorts there. There weren't very many. I was wondering how easy it was to get them to drive from Phoenix.) Now for a more ' normal person' who can make friends, Tucson is probably fine. And there is a stark beauty which I don't actually mind as it's similar to what I grew up with -although more extreme. Plus my views may be colored by the fact that I didn't get the job. But the one thing I can definitely say that wouldn't have changed whether I had gotten the position or not is the heat. And while it's a dry heat-at 85 or 90 degrees in a suit, it doesn't matter. It's still hot. It was the kind of heat where the air felt warm even breathing it in. Although if two hot locations were my only choices, I might pick Tucson over some place equally hot but with humidity. Gman

While it's been not done anymore because of an increased risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, American physicians who treated infants told caregivers to place their infants prone or on their side to reduce reflux symptoms. Prone (or side sleeping) was probably the advice given for at least 20 years. Gman

I'm sure if I were from the U.K, I'd find it beyond belief too. Gman

Slight correction, @mike carey. While there does end up being curry in the mayonnaise, I was actually talking about adding the curry to tuna salad. Gman

Well as long as we are giving recipes-mayo, lots of mayo, did I mention the mayo, chopped picked, hard boiled eggs, and onions. For the pièce de résistance, I add curry powder. It's delicious!! Gman

I read that article too. Gman

My mother would occasionally make tuna salad with mustard when I was growing up. I think she made it mainly for my brother as he didn't like mayonnaise. She said that was the way my grandmother made it. It's not bad. But I prefer mayo. Although thinking about mustard tuna has made me nostalgic. I might mix some up sometime soon They didn't have just a pouch at Walmart. This was the bottle they had at Walmart. As you can see the label says 'sugar free' in the middle at the bottom. Gman

Since several of y'all liked Duke's, I thought I'd give it a try. At my Walmart, all the bottles were labeled "sugar-free" although the labels then went on "to say" that it wasn't a low calorie food. My question is-whether Duke's is normally sugar-free, or if that is a special version. To give Duke's a fair chance with me, I want to taste the original version. Gman

Your feelings are understandable. I can't even imagine what it must be like. It's as if we are all in a science fiction movie that we never auditioned for. I recently came across an opinion piece in the NYT that I agree with. The blame that we are in this fix regarding short supplies is due to government and businesses prizing efficiency as the highest good. Unfortunately efficiency doesn't respond well to crisis because surpluses aren't considered efficient. My thoughts are with you and all the first line responders out there. If I end up surviving this, I wonder if I will see changes in business and government so that hopefully we are more prepared next time. Gman

I totally agree with you. With this guy- we started having sex I before PrEP was available-I think-or at least before it was well-known. He promised I was the only one he bottomed bare for. He told me condoms were uncomfortable for him. But I never knew if I could trust him-we didn't have much of a relationship outside f-cking. It used to worry me a lot. The one thing that probably kept me sane in the pre-PrEP Era was that I was the top. And yes I know that tops can be infect by HIV too. I probably shouldn't have given in. Some times I refused and made him settle for oral. The reason I was so weak and gave in is this guy is incredibly handsome. And I think not just to me. He's the one I talked about a few months back that his picture on Grindr is so nice, a lot of people think he is a bot of some type. While not saying he looks anything like Brad Pitt, I'd say he has an equal level of attractiveness. And for a guy like that to be interested in a fat, bald bear-when it was tough for me to find any sex at all-well my desire for sex overrode my sense of self-preservation. Gman

This is all hearsay as I'm a top. But some bottoms like or grow to like the feeling of their anus-and I'm assuming also their rectum being stretched. I had a f-buddy I was exclusively bare with. He loved feeling me ejaculate inside him. He had incredible control and could make himself cum immediately after I did. But the "extreme" pleasure for many is the stimulation of the prostate. [Personally the thought of prostate stimulation gives me the heebie-jeebies. I had fears about bottoming to begin with, and it was one among the thousand things that made me not want to be gay and kept me a virgin until I was 41 as I mentioned in another recent post. But as if my fears on bottoming weren't enough, they were strongly reinforced when I developed some kind of prostatitis (or chronic pelvic pain syndrome) in my early 30's. The pain was in my pelvis/bladder but a burning pain extended down the length of my penis (I normally use tallywacker but this is an important clinical discussion). It wasn't an std as I had never had sex at the time. Plus nothing was ever cultured. Even today they aren't sure what causes this. But at the time and even after for years, a physician performing a prostate exam on me could put me into a week of pain. So I'm not a fan of prostate stimulation. I'm much less symptomatic than I used to be. But I still have mild symptoms-more of an irritative feeling usually than straight out pain. And it usually gets worse the more frequently I ejaculate. It was a worse problem when I could hire as I had sex a lot more frequently. ] But prostate stimulation seems to be what many bottoms like. This may explain it better. After all an excerpt from a movie can sometimes be better than a 1000 words. Gman

I'll have to disagree, respectfully, unless you can provide more proof. I'm not saying that it couldn't be the same guy running both ads, but the pictures are definitely not the same guy or at least not the same guy at the same point in time Spartan Giant (https://rentmen.eu/SpartanGiant) is to my eyes much more muscular than Dmitri (https://rentmen.eu/DimitriXXL). And Spartan has a tattoo just above his groin area that Dmitri doesn't seem to have. Gman
