yes. and because we are victims of our own pasts, my favorites tend to be ones from the 70's and 80's with the long shaggy haired kids from the street....

Hi Guys, This was my second visit in Rio. Fortunately, an English-speaking not-4-pay guy had responded to my profile on one of the websites weeks before I arrived, so I ended up with a nice, intillegent and sexy law student who was friend, guide and sex partner. We're still in touch, and hope to meet again ("don't know where, don't know when"). However, on days he wasn't available I visited the 3 saunas, all during evenings when garotos abound. In all cases I paid R100; when some offered a higher quote, I said 100 and they accepted without further arguement. I didn't try to bid lower. 202 surprised me with its pleasant ambiance; for some reason I remembered reading it was run down. It isn't; actually, the lounge/public space was the best of the three for me, because of ventilation, comfortable seatings and not-loud music. However, I ended up with a guy who promised everything I was looking for but didn't deliver. Less than 5 minutes into the session it turned out that he doesn't deep-kiss and that he wants condoms for oral, both contrary to promises. I ended the programa immediately, went to the front desk and told them I won't pay. The very nice receptionist translated everything for a huge man standing there (who turned out to be either owner or manager or both). He demanded I pay everything; I agreed to pay for the cabin but not the garoto; he insisted; I stood my ground for circa 7 minutes; he threatened to call the police; I didn't budge ("bring them on"); and he relented. I won't return there again. 117: I had very VERY fond memories of the place, but I guess second time is never like the first..... I enjoyed the erections, especially in the wanking room, and accepted plenty of invitations to try them out. However, the well-endowed (which is topmost for me) were also tall hugely muscled (which is a trunoff also because I'm a short guy). I chose an OK garoto, but the programa was less than ok. NMM compensated for the others. The place is of course known for being the least nice of the 3 in terms of infrustructure, but cabins are free and for R20 you can add a fan (which I did). I chose Junior, and he was great - both in bed and in social attitude. In fact, I returned the next day just because he said he'd be there, but apparently I came too early and I couldn't wait. Hope to post in a week or two about sightseeing. Have fun; be safe. (-:

Ax, reading anything in Daddy's reviews is IMHO, a complete utter waste of time! the adjectives--"minimal" "useless" and "really dated" come to mind immediately! You are the most active person in their Brazil threads and you haven't been to Brazil in a number of years and the last time you were there as I remember you didn't get to the saunas...? There are a couple of private forums that have only known members on them that offer current update info.. but for 99% of the gay guys going to Brazil this has the most up to date and current info! Even information that is 1 year old is outdated as the scene changes regularly! saunas, bars open and close, the best nights to go changes every 6 months or so(as someone who has been there every 3 months for 16 years I know this for a FACT!) I would be very very skeptical of someone's advise on traveling to "gay" Brazil if they hadn't been there in the preceding 12 months and more likely that past 6 months! Think of NYC, the bars I went to from 2000 - 2013 are no longer there like Splash Bar New York which was the biggest but like many couldn't keep up with the rising rents and conversion to high end retail and condos! My point being things change constantly so the ask here before you go, if you have questions! Caveat-- I posted extensively from 2001 to about 2006 on that site and myself along with 4 other Brazilian affectionados all left about the same time...over the years less and less got posted in their Latin America forum! and from what I can tell it's usually newer guys that will ask the same question here and over there, and Axiom will respond that they should check out this site or that one(which they already have)!
