You would’ve loved my father re opera. He played it so much that I developed an aversion to it as a child! There was also the running commentary about whether Björling or Gigli was superior.

Björling, no contest!

It’s funny how things growing up affect your life. My father loved to play (self-taught on guitar) and sing country songs! Not the pop country cross-overs of today, but that original Hank Williams type country. As a teenager I started recording Metropolitan Opera broadcasts off the radio on my old reel-to-reel recorder and began a sort of revenge for all the country he’d played while I was growing up, by playing opera broadcasts at more volume than I should have!

He always liked the tenors, but his favorite comment to me was about the soprano - “Isn’t she dead yet?” Only after his passing in 1984 did I begin to enjoy country music. It’s still not my favorite, but it almost always makes me remember my dad fondly.

tbh, not really. I just go online forums to discuss shit. not to meet up. I've blocked half the people here since they're rude asf and it's funny really since I don't do with terse people, whether strangers online or in real life. i don't like to hang out with people much though.

Frankly you sound like a bit of a misanthrope. Must be tough.

Sorry to hear that you felt the need to block so many people.  Were they rude in PMs, or was it their responses to public posts?  For what it's worth, sometimes I've found that directness may come across as rudeness in writing, when that may not have been the intention.

About 20 years ago, posters would organize a dinner at an area restaurant and people from the region would gather and even escorts were welcome. We had one in Ft Myers, Florida, that I attended and there were probably 4-5 more guys there and one of the local escorts joined us. I remember at first, they thought I was an escort, but I wasn't, one guy told me I should consider it, but I was happy in my career. It was one of those things that just kind of organically developed but soon died out for whatever reason. Events like this might be more successful in 2023.

Have you ever chatted with other members here, read something that they wrote, or maybe just because of their name, and wanted to meet them?

If you have, have you ever ended up meeting someone from here?

@Exploritor, You raised a good question and received many positive answers. Yes, members have been meeting up since the site started. 

The 1st member I met was @jackhammer91406, some 20 years ago. He was visiting NY and posted that he was taking in a show at the Gaiety. I contacted him and arranged to meet. @foxy, another member & now a close friend, also joined us.  I’ve met numerous members from attending the Gaiety and, every Sunday, @ the 20 Club. Some have become close friends. We had a group that traveled together to Montreal, Atlanta, Fort Lauderdale etc to take in the different strip clubs. Just this past weekend I was in Fort Lauderdale to meet a couple of members. 

Your location has a lot to do with meeting others. Whenever @Lucky or @glutes are in NYC I can always expect to hear from them. 

Good luck to you and, if you’re ever in NYC, send a PM.

Even when I am socially challenged, I had a great time when I met other posters in this forum. I once enjoyed @Oliver's hospitality in Palm Springs and about three times met in DC with smaller groups of posters. I even traveled to Mexico DF, and Rio with friends from here.

This is a popular forum representative of the broader humankind. I believe people are overwhelmingly good; the paranoid feelings many share about crime are unknown to me. Similarly, most posters here are good, reliable people.

I do chat with a few members on here, and as has been said by others, I do think they’d be fun to grab a drink with, and have a natter. Same for some members I’ve not had one-on-one chats with, but enjoy their posts. 

There are a few former members I have met, that do still enjoy this hobby, so we chat via text and e-mail, and about more than just this hobby. 

One funny “meeting” from a number of years ago -  a friend of a friend was having a party, my friend invited me to come with. Fun crowd, and I wound up chatting at one point with this fellow who similarly was a platonic plus one for his friend, so neither of us really knew anyone at the party. Anyway, we chatted, exchanged some snarky comments and laughs, and flirted in that habitual way gay men do where there’s no real intent behind the flirt. Fast forward, sometime later I replied to a thread on here, and I received a private message from another member “First name, is this you?” Yes the fellow I met at that party was a fellow hobbyist and member. I asked what prompted him to think it was me, he said it was a phrase I used that night that I also used in my post that made him think BBD could be me. So began our friendship. He’s no longer on here, in fact he moved out of the country some years back. He’s loving life, still a hobbyist, and we’ve kept in touch thru the years. 

I also have a memory of a kind of ad hoc get together in Vegas. This would have been back in the HooBoy days. I was in Vegas for a bachelor party, and had declined to join the boys on yet another visit to the strip club, so in my room at loose ends thinking “hmmm perhaps I’ll see what’s out there”. Even tho I was barely 30, I had picked up this hobby already. There was a previous post about Vegas, how some gents were meeting at X bar that evening. I thought why not! I went, in my memory there were maybe 8-10 gents, and I was, as you can imagine, by far the youngster in the group. It was fun putting faces with names, I got some good intel, and it was just a fun night overall. 
 

Cheers, 
BBD

I really wish I could attend the PS gathering this year, but April is too full of other commitments this year, all fun.

I would love to go again. Unfortunately, it coincides with Spring Break, one of the few windows in my year that allows me to travel abroad. I will be in Rio.

For the newbies, I wrote a few reports with my adventures and misadventures the year I did participate.

I had just gotten into hiring when he retired. And I had seen him pop up in Buffalo 2 or 3 times as well. I envy all you guys that got to experience that ass!

Victor has a fantastic body and he is exceptional in bed, but he is so much more as far as personality and communication skills! Although his persona is naturally understated, we always enjoyed spending 15 or 20 minutes before play just catching up on what we’d each done/experienced between our previous sessions.

Just thinking about him, I still to this day get turned on when I remember his amazing kissing talents-every time we made out, just his French kisses would cause me to pre-cum copiously every time!!! He knew exactly how to completely satisfy me every time I spent time in his excellent company! 🥰🥰🥰

TruHart1. 😎
