Am I missing some pics? Were any of them deleted?

The idea of a 'slave auction' occurring within any historical period transcends race ... it is really about how those with the upper hand in any context view and treat the less advantaged. That is how I interpreted the related comment (with metaphor) about being judicious in use of images. Case in point: Moorish supremacy, s/w Europe in Middle Ages, over Goths (my DNA origins).

I was waiting for Magno's OK to share his information. He is the guy who drove us all over the city during my first days in Salvador. Sweet, honest, 100% reliable, but he only speaks Portuguese. lucimagno@hotmail.com 8885-8641/9931-1855

Is the accusation of racism necessary? It is an honest question. Perhaps there are clues in @BiLatin's posts that justify such a remark, but I have missed them. Of course, I am not Black and my relationship with racism is radically different to most Americans, whatever color they are. That means that I may be less sensitive and do not notice clues that may be obvious to you, @SolaceSoul. I am all for the controversy around posting pictures. I have often published pictures, I have encouraged others to doing it, I have enjoyed the published pictures in many places, Like @Tomcal's extinct club. I recently mentioned this somewhere else, so I apologize if I am repeating myself, but I think it is relevant here. After my unintentional indiscretion in the pool party in Palm Springs last year, and after the last problem in the Brazil club, I decided not to publish any pictures of anyone that I have taken, without explicit verbal or written consent. In this case, we do not even know whether or not @Bilatin got consent from the boys to publish the pictures. Whatever the truth is, this is a practice most of us have been involved in. If we have learned from our mistakes and grow to be more respectful of others' privacy, I think we should be more empathetic when we confront those who do not agree with us.

I hope you are not serious. Contributing to discussion forums involves having a thick skin and not being hypersensitive to other posters comments. Please, do not leave. It is easy to ignore negative comments when it is just a few isolated individuals. After all, they are entitled to think whatever they want to, whether they are right or wrong. Just keep doing your thing and, instead of empowering two contributors whose comments you do not like, focus on the many friends here that are thanking you and appreciating the information you are sharing. Count me amongst them.

You can always try just posting your stories without the unnecessarily posting photos of unsuspecting young men as if they are at some medieval slave auction.

Is the "light skinned one" the guy in the second photo you posted? I ask because that photo shows a guy with sores all over his pubic area and partly on his penis. Didn't you have fear that you might catch whatever caused those sores on that guy's privates and surrounding area? You are braver than I, for sure.

This has been a debate for years. They initially did not like the name MaleEscortReview.com. Why? It was not the site they wanted to go to. Now there is an issue with the word boy. However, every one of them that have that issue was OK with the word Rentboy. IMHO no difference. But, you are right, many will not give Spacey a second chance. I will and not because he is a great actor (he is) but because he has not been proven to be guilty of anything yet. Yes, he made advances. Yes, he was a prick at times. But, does it rise to the level of career ending? Not from what I have heard. But, perhaps I have not heard the whole story.

just got back from Havana. Nice weather this time of year. had a boy a day, but only took pics of last two boys. I paid between 10CUC to 20CUC per boy. the most expensive boy was the light skinned boy in the picture. all the boys at first said they wouldn't bottom but once in bed would let me in for a little bit. the light skinned one in the photos, was straight and needed to watch straight porn to stay hard while I fucked him. all the boys I had were tall 6ft or more and on the muscular side and huge dicks and nice bubble asses.

Whenever I go back to Havana it's funny how nothing seems to change much. It's kind of reassuring in a way...unlike Brazil, Havana feels like a little cocoon to me. How refreshing to walk the streets day and night and never feel in danger - there are no guns here, and getting mugged would be a rare exception, and not the rule as in Brazil. December is not my favorite month to come - the weather is cooler and not as good for the beach. It was warm most of my trip but the last couple days there was a cold snap that saw temperatures drop to the low 60's. Mi Cayito was a lot emptier than usual, I noticed police in the sand dunes and the normal action there was dead - I'm wondering if there has been a recent crackdown. One of my local friends told me if you ever get caught doing something outdoors just bribe the police and you can go along your way...I'd rather not risk that.. There were several boys hanging out at the beach, as well as a black masseuse who gives 1 hour massages for 15 cucs underneath a little hut there. My friend told me he also does "full service" outcalls. He claims the masseuse has a 10 inch dick and fucks like a bull...apparently his BBC loving friend had a ride and got drilled so hard he couldn't walk straight for days. There was a teenager that came up and started talking to me. He had a large herpes sore on his lip...I honestly felt so bad for him. Life is not easy for most of the locals. At night I went out to the usual spots - Las Vegas (Tuesday, Thursday and Friday are when Imperio performs and the best nights), Karabali on Wednesday, Cafe Cantante on Saturday. I was disappointed that the Cuban doctor who I met years ago on Planet Romeo and have seen every time I went to Cuba blew me off this trip. He is bisexual and recently got married...I guess he is trying to settle down and live a straight life. He told me before that he enjoys sex with guys more, but has intense pressure from his family to have a wife and kids. We had so many good times together that I was actually really sad it seems to be over... he was very proud of his job and would never take a dollar from me. He inherited a house and car from his grandmother, so I guess compared to a lot of Cubans he is getting by ok. The thing I like about Cuba is meeting guys does not feel as transactional as Brazil. The garotos in Brazil have multiple clients a day, going to the sauna is their job. If you meet a guy at Las Vegas and hang out with him, you are probably the only guy he is with that day. It isn't a sex factory...I have never asked a "price," negotiated an overnight, negotiated whether they will suck you, negotiated whether they will cum. I had to get used to doing all of that in Brazil, but everything happens organically here...nobody has ever asked me for money or said flat out I want x to do this or that. The first night I went to Las Vegas I met a handsome guy named Oscar. He came and sat at my table with my friends, I bought him drinks, we watched the show. Afterwards he came back to my place, had great sex - he was extremely horny....very tight but a good bottom, and came twice while I was fucking him..afterwards he was in no rush to leave, we hung out and chatted. I gave him some money but he never asked for it. The next day he texted me and we went out to dinner the next night, and afterwards to the Cuban Art Factory. He was visiting from Camaguey and left that day, or else I would have hung out with him more. I can really only think of one bad experience that I had with a guy in Cuba where afterwards he was literally going through my suitcase, trying on my clothes and asking me for my shoes, razor, etc. I could tell he was totally straight and really not interested in the sex at all...last I heard he married a girl from Sweden, who I doubt knows her man sucked cock on the side for a little while just so he could get a pair of Nike shoes.. I met another guy named Alejandro at Las Vegas, he is model gorgeous and turned out to be very sweet and carinoso which I love. He came back to my place, took turns fucking each other, but he was so passionate and afterwards wanted me to hug him all night. He woke me up in the middle of the night hard and wanting to fuck again, and then in the morning he woke up hard as a rock and wanted to fuck a third time. He came 3 times total and still didn't want to leave in the morning. He never asked for anything either, but I gave him 100 just because I know how hard it is in Cuba with what they make...I really liked Alejandro and the rest of the week didn't even bother looking for someone else. I might go back just to see him and take him to a beach resort in Varadero. Cafe Cantante was really good as usual, it is probably the biggest gay party of the week. Lots of cute guys, a lot of transgender girls hang out there also. I don't even bother with grindr in Cuba, hardly anyone is on the apps and it is just so much easier and better to meet guys at the bars.

Direct flight to Rio today from Atlanta... Got in super early, was settled into the apartment by 9:30 am... Weather has been overcast all day but still some decent eye candy around the beaches... Walked around Copa earlier, got a drink and a massage and then walked around Ipanema later... Weather is decent but is definitely overcast which has put a stop to many of the gays on the beaches although I have seen tons... Will update on the saunas later...planning on hitting up Pointe in the next hour and then going to 117 if it is slow there...

Verbal consent is context-specific. It is not like a Cuban cigar is always just a cigar. Unless a pic suggests otherwise, I am going to assume the Havana lad accepting of a few bucks is likely ghetto-raised (whatever that equivalent is there, I realize that concept differs in some places) and is not predisposed to rebuff a photoshoot request from someone who has, as I do, a chronic case of affluenza. A relevant analogy might be that of an unboundaried crack cocaine addict in a more developed world setting.

I am not defending his behavior, that would be doing the same you are doing, judging without knowing.

He has had the money and success to rent anything (of age...) he wants. When your reputation, career, or whole life is on the line, why not just do that? So much safer and you can get everything you want instead of some groping or head at best. At his level you add on NDAs, sure, even then there'll be rumors and gossip, but no jeopardy. Because he's a narcissistic asshole who enjoys taking advantage of people, and the sex (and sexuality) are secondary to the power play. I mean, we've seen a couple good people #metoo'd but it seems fairly obvious Spacey wasn't one of them. If he gets through the suits though, no reason he can't continue to play the sleazy ego-maniacal bad guy he mostly always plays. We'll just know why he's so believable.

That didn't take long! One less physician to take seriously.

Other than Club Tobi masseurs, Medellin requires a lot more advance prep contacts than Bogota. What's in the 57a hustler bars isn't much quality-wise. Fortunately about 1/4 of rooms on CB, and almost all the Latin American ones, are in Medellin and the guys are eager to make contacts and meet in person. Unlike Grindr, you see what you get. CB has a $20 special that gives unlimited messages plus tokens for about the same price as tokens. Unlimited messages impresses the guys and makes contact very easy. Great news that there's an airline flying into Medellin's downtown airport from BOG. MED is an awful car trip to town over the mountains in little tin-can taxis.

Wednesday Despite all my precautions, I think the tropical sun has taken a toll out of me. I have been feeling exhausted and drained, and yesterday (Wed) did not go to the beach in the morning as planned. I was also concerned because my back was bothering me. I have a chronic low back pain issue, and I am afraid is getting bad right now. Last night in the sauna (more on this below) I tried to hide it when I was with Numazu1, and he probably did not notice as he cannot compare how I normally walk and how I was walking right then. A poor old man giving very short steps. So I stayed in the hotel most of the day, avoiding the bed, which could be the cause for my back pain. I was blaming the weakness feeling on the caipiroskas hang over, but I think now it was actually the sun. By the early afternoon I was feeling better and decided to plan for sex. I do not remember whether or not I mentioned this boy here, but I did share about him in my to do lists for Brazil in my blog. I was planning to go to Planetario, so I contacted Gabriel to meet with him today Thursday. The communication was quick and friendly, but he was leaving Salvador today in the morning. He insisted on meeting yesterday night, but I was confident my reduced energies where going to be fully drained after the sauna visit. So I missed this boy. If you happen to be visiting Salvador when he is here, you should try him. He seems to be very nice and educated, and in my opinion is the hottest boy publishing as a GP in internet. @numazu1 had arrived to the city, and I was excited I was going to meet our local story teller hero. Of course, he was with one of his many Brazilian boyfriends, I was also curious to meet one of the characters of the stories we all enjoy reading so much. Fernando (the guide I hired for my first 2 days here) was recommending me Wednesday Bingo to go to Planetario. Someone here in the forums advised to go early, about 4. I was still feeling tired and not in the mood for hiring, but I was there at about 4:30. It was damn too early. Perhaps 5 clients and 10 boys, and a general feeling of nothing is going on. I do have a funny anecdote while I was there seating and being head for all the desperate boys looking for a programa. I noticed that the guy servicing the bar counter (later I would learn his name was Carlos) was looking at me in a weird way. He would walk by me (I was seating alone between trying boys, mostly in my phone, bitching at Numazu1 about how dead this was and advising him to wait until later to come) and make strange noises moving chairs and tables and shutting doors, as he was trying to get my attention. He would not say a word and look at me with a not very friendly expression in his face, like waiting for me to say something about his actions, but I decided to ignore him. He finally vanished. After about 10 minutes he came back, this time walking straight to me with a big smile in his face and his phone in his hand. He showed me in his phone a picture of a guy that was kind of my twin bother, and told me he was very upset thinking I was that guy and was ignoring him. The guy is an Italian he used to fuck with. After we cleared the incident, we laughed together and since that moment he gave me VIP treatment and spoiled me. He recommended me to move to a different table and that move made a significant difference in my ability to enjoy the place. A detailed report on my experience on the Sauna is coming soon. With this back pain I am afraid I will do nothing today other than be seated. We were going to spend a day in the beach with the boy I met at Planetario last Monday, but I will call him to cancel if I do not feel better by noon. I am writing this at 10 AM. In few words, several boys paraded seating with me, Brazilian kissing me (I think I will stop talking about French kissing), showing me their hard ons and striking my dick. This time I had decided to step out of my comfort zone and have the full sauna experience, I was naked wearing a towel that was badly long enough to cover my generous shape. This time I did not go with the first boy that overcame my shyness with his charm. I tried several, and it was not until after 8 (remember, I was there at 4:30) that I decided for a programa. He was extremely hot to me, and the service was OK, but no comparable to my first days in this and the other sauna, Fox. I cannot blame the boy, of course. I was feeling week and sick, after all. When I was walking to get a suite to play with him, a big muscles go go boy was starting a performance. We hang out in a table with Numazu1, his boy, and my favorite garoto (the one I am supposed to meet today for a beach day) and enjoyed a not very good Bingo followed by one of the most decadent and poorly performed drag shows of my whole life. I will let Numazu share his own experience whenever he wants to, if he wants to. It was a mistake getting to the place so early. 6PM would have been a much better time. Perhaps the best times may vary with the season. The boys were telling us that the holidays season is not strong in Salvador, and that the rest of the year, specially carnaval, is much better. Overall, after 6PM I did have a fun experience, with friendly clients and many boys of a quite diverse array of looks, at least 5 of them hirable material for me. Fernando had told me that the boys in Planetario were mostly Black, while the boys in Fox were mostly Latin. So far I do not share such an assessment, but I do need at least one more visit to Fox to be sure. I did notice that the boys in Fox the one day I was there were less aggressive and better looking in average, also they’re fewer. Also, I am quite confident racial boundaries are radically different in Brazil, what they define as Black or Latin may not be so in another culture. Numazu1’s provisory husband wanted to eat sushi. I guess you cannot expect to eat traditional local food when you are with a local. A local dating an American is probably after an exotic (for him) experience, not into dinning feijoada. My boy (he was not joining us) recommended a sushi restaurant and we called an Uber. When we arrived to the place, we were surprised. It was not a regular popular eatery but a very classy and sophisticated looking establishment. I guess my boy was there with a wealthy client. We felt slightly out of place in our casual-going-to-the-sauna outfit, but nobody paid attention to us. The couple ate sushi, I order Tempura. It was delicious and we were heading to our nests by midnight. I am feeling definitely better regarding my energy, I am quite confident I was suffering the effects of too much tropical sun. But my back still is killing me. I am not sure about my next steps. My plan was hanging out a few hours this afternoon in the beach and in my room with Italo. Perhaps convincing him to take some pictures if he is willing to sign a written consent and provide me with prove of his age (23). I am not interested in overnights, unlike most of you I do not find any appealing in sleeping next to someone and waking up not alone. After saying goodbye to him in the afternoon, I was planning a field trip to Club13. Tonight is the Bingo night over there. Right now there is a good chance I am canceling my beach day with Italo. I may consider inviting him anyway for the pictures. His dick is very photogenic. If my back is better, I am going to the mysterious third sauna in Salvador. It is the one located the furthest. P.S.. While I am posting and uploading the pictures, at almost 11AM, Italo sent me a message. I am trying to reschedule our meeting for tomorrow.

uh, oh! I am going to have to buy you some glasses or pay for an eye exam for you. Look past the area where he would shave. Sores are interspersed all over the area. The sores are also further down his legs in addition to being in the location where public hair would be expected to grow. Let me know where I can send that gift certificate for glasses.

lol lol those r not sores. they r razor bumps. as u can c from his butt pic, he is hairy but shaves. ur imagination is really wild. lol

Thanks for your report from Havana and the hot photos. Ignore the embittered

@Tomcal, I think I just had a programa @ planetario with a 21y.o. boy who could be this guy little brother. Gostoso.

Thanks for the report. Where did you meet most of the guys? I'm assuming Las Vegas...did they ask for a certain amount upfront or just take whatever you gave them? I'm not even clear on the new nudity rules, so I don't think BiLatin should be attacked just for posting pics of his escapades, let OZ or whoever move it to the appropriate forum if necessary..

Last time I was in Havana (last year) I stayed at the Saratoga. Every night there was a variety of similar guys right outside, I would just make eye contact with the most appealing and walk a few feet until he would follow. I wasn’t able to host but every guy had someone who for $5 or $10 would open a room somewhere (usually a tiny hole in the wall really) with a bed. Everyone bottomed for me and provided a condom. I never paid the guy more than $25. Not a bad deal for any of us.

That site may make improvements -- cosmetic as well as substantive -- but it will never be what it was without me there!

Bogota One night stopover. Stayed in hotel 100 m from Gigolo Erotic House. Clean. A bit noisy. Very cute lad at reception. Not Hilton but sufficient when you arrive in the afternoon and leave very early next day. And cheap ... 69000 COP around 23 USD (3000 COP = 1 USD). Following Numazu s pieces of advice, I decided to go only to Gigolo House and not also to Teatron. I arrived around 8.30 pm. Boys arrive around that time also and change in the room. They only wear jock straps. That night there were around 30 boys of very different types. Many twinks. A few hunks. Striking difference between Brazil : boys are shorter including dickwise and do not have so many tattoes in general. Boys walk around the room and chat with customers (spanish only of course). They try to convince customers to take them to backrooms. There are only 2 backrooms which are in fact a very small place with only a chair. A curtain separates the mainroom from backroom which is in fact just a corner of the main room. Cost of dances in backroom is 50.000 COP (around 15 USD). This is for 20 minutes. Boys remove jock strap from beginning and do what you want. It is better to agree in advance but not compulsory. Fucking is 100.000 COP (30 USD). The curtain is not thick and at least from one backroom you can see all that happens in the room and vice versa I guess. 5 boys at a time dance on stage. Around 11 pm and then regularly in the night there are hardcore shows ie one boy coming on stage with a hard on and then displaying his tool that customers can touch or even play with for a tip. The performer passes in the room after the show to get tips from the audience. Life sex show around 1 am. Threesomes on Fridays. No guarantee of type and time of shows in fact : when I arrive, no one could confirm there would be a life show that night. Went with a few boys in the backroom and had some fun (cuddling) with some of them in the main room. A few guys were from Venezuela including a very good looking guy who was also masseur in Sauna saint Morritz where you can get more than a massage. Great time in this place. Worth a repeat. When I went from the hotel to Gigolo house around 8.30 pm there were almost no one in the streets but surprinsingly at 1.30 am there were people walking by, one restaurant was still open. Safe return to the hotel. Taxi hotel Airport : 20 minutes. 10 USD Drinks in Gigolo House cheat 2.5 USD the beer. Many contacts on Grindr including a guy from Medellin who stayed at same hotel and also went to Gigolo House. Too short a stay. Worth a longer visit to explore more.

A few pics of Mi Cayito, Las Vegas, and Cafe Cantante
