Perhaps you can do a search here and find some contributions about rentboys in the Floripa sauna venues. Just enter the short or long form. But I think the info remains ambiguous. You have not clearly indicated your leaning even though Lagoa is on the bucket list. My interpretation is you seek regular play.

That is similar to what I do, Germark. This means you will be walkable as well to the Montjuic Fountains free nighttime light show, just south of the Pl Espanya roundabout (also a Metro stop). Worthwhile to get the schedule. Might be a little later due to summer solstice sundown timing. There is also a tourist centre right in the middle of the traffic circle (underground crisscross thorughfares) and a lot of eateries in the converted former bull ring the northeast side. Restaurant Pura Brasa n/e on the circle also great food, busy, but a little pricier. I have not shopped and cooked in homestay there. I don't have firm dates but targetting late May for a few weeks. Previous visit Fall 2016 but elsewhere in Spain since then. For Metro, the T10 10-rides pass is best value. You will be using Metro if you plan on major sites beyond Eixample, etc. I am inclined to Über elsewhere, that is, in other cities, but I have not been anywhere in BCN that was not easily accessible using the Metro. Or the 3 trams in the northwest, but those few area sights are more for finesse of repeat visits. Enjoy! Such a marvellous city, and having the bro-thel so very much value-added. PS: I just recalled Über viability there is reportedly in question anyway.

I am also Canuck. You should be OK clinically. However, previous contributions here have highlighted the necessity of YF vaccine if you are not returning directly to Canada or USA. Same for Brazil outbounds. For example, if you are connecting in Panama you will be denied entry if you want to leave airside zone. Not a problem for a quick transfer, but an extended delay leaving Panama would put you uncomfortably on a standard Tocumen gate chair, though access to amenities, with no option to clear customs and visit the city or book an airport area hotel. You are likely Air Canada direct from or thru TO. If Copa, word to the wise is herein delivered. I will be flying Copa to Bogotá, but I have the lifetime nonfractionated inoculation. Personally, I recommend vaccination to allow for spontaneity or pitfalls in planning or execution.

I was not at all putting forth an opinion (or even dreamt my prescribed treatment protocol would be challenged), other than describing how on-demand fits my needs better. But I am picking up challenges to this method and that there were members here implicitly aligned with you, TotesAwesome, when in fact you just posed a lack of updated info, as you correctly state. In contrast to you, one member is eschewing appreciative inquiry in favour of rabid fundamentalism. Sheesh! Reminds me of the female-condom activist years ago at conferences, screaming disruptively that the medical system was remiss in not promoting an anal condom version for MSM. WTF, our respective physicians are not going to go all pistols at dawn. He said, she said, I said, you said, you didn't say, etc etc etc was certainly not where I anticipated this would go. But then, again, how dumb am I to not have forecasted heated controversy? This is now to some degree getting to the crazy-town level of vaccine denialism, expressed by a subsection of the membership, with the difference that the denialism is in the direction of prophylaxis scheduling overkill for patients who are intermittently sexual. I think I will favour the rigourous research findings over misguided cherry-picking of drug package insert phrasing.

I agree that one should ensure one's physician and pharmacist are on side. Pharmacists cannot prescribe medication. In my case, the clinic is a specialty HIV program with a research component, where physicians and Allied Health colleagues work as an integrated team, with pharmacy down the hall. I get 20 minutes with the nurse (questionnaire, venipuncture, etc), however long I need with the pharmacist, and 1-2 minutes with the doctor who looks at a screen and asks if I need a script. He had agreed to be my GP, as he completed FamMed, but I have to remind him sometime when I require generic attention and he is (I hope) less frazzled. BTW, a friend is a PhD pharmacist, not a physician. He is the go-to even for top-tier Infectious Diseases physicians specializing in HIV care. Complex regimens involving drug interactions are carved out by this Pharmacy dude. This is also the case in many programs where the pharmacist is not a PharmD. You know, most physicans do NOT have the attitude: 'me physician, you lesser life form'. Further, how many doctors have the time in their 12-minute patient care blocks to sit patiently going over instructions for consumers that may need a lot of medication support and guidance? Pharmacists do not need a dressing down. The real problems relate to laypersons giving their family, friends, associates, etc, misinformation that is swallowed hook line and sinker. This thread is not about who is correct ... there is no opinion called for because by now it should be clear that nobody here has presented debatable info about PrEP models.

The red vs white towels pertains, I believe, to a third party ad site that reflected Thermas from eons ago, but was never updated even though it seems to be current when you view it. They are quite adamant about wearing one's towel. I wear sometimes shorts underneath for phone, readers, etc storage. They may have optional bathrobes. Don't quite recall. Just be glad you are not required to wear "ribbons", as some ad sites term the towels.

Yes, there is "continuous" pre-exposure prophylaxis for preventing transmission for those who are regularly sexually active, that is, at risk due to intimacy encounters any number of times on a weekly basis, OR "on demand" as needed among those whose sexual activity occurs in cycles. I only engage in (protected) intercourse a few months of the year. The "as needed" on-demand became an option a few years back when research found that stop-start-stop-start Truvada was not associated with drug resistance, that is, the body's incapacity to utilize a medication due to the antivirus mutating to win out over the drug when the drug is not continually in one's system. This more recent option is win-win for pharma, and for sexual 'playas' interested in taking only as necessary and sparing renal (kidney) burden, $ costs, the problems of remembering each day, etc. I have taken maybe 120 daily doses, 1-3 weeks at a time overall over 18 months. Unfortunately, I tend to get travellers diarrhea and it is unclear whether this is now due to side effects versus pathogens where I travel. Post-exposure prophylaxis is a 30-day block with a different medication. Nobody should dick around and take Truvada exclusively if there is the possibility of an exposure, eg, no condom, breakage, etc. This is also why regular testing is critical for either PrEP method. My pharmacy is within the PrEP clinic itself and is Draconian about dispensing repeats without evidence of non-reactive lab results. In short, you are apparently being appropriately transparent with your physician about being a serious serial full-time slut, whereas I am but a merely mortal dabbler.

No, don't think I ever had those shelves, cabinets, knickknacks, or (what looks like?) a flat screen, etc. Or what appears to be a sink in the reflection. Last there Oct 2016. I can always get on the learning curve when I am there before long. And I still think I am robbing some of the guys at 50 a pop, given the high quality I have experienced there. Granted, the occasional ones phone it in and even the base fee fits poorly

SSA coming wkend, hightailing out just before the major swarm (and even far more exorbitant prices) Mar1-5. Likely Ubatuba-bound to recover my arse. Don't think I'll get to the bottom (bottom; teehee) of the São Vincente GP question though. BTW, that Q was also asked and unanswered in the Google file. And I do believe email not Whatsapp is the method to contact the venue. DomRep in a few weeks. Bogotá & BCN later Spring, probly. BC's Okanagan Valley wine country most of early summer. Using up Star Alliance points and other credits.

Has anyone sprung or obtained clear info for/about the upgrade/champagne suite? I don't mean the 10-11€ upper-tier room that I previously used for one trick. The new options' photo suggest the room is much much nicer than the previous upgrade I utilized. Is the 40 versus 70€ essentially the same suite except for the bubbly grade? In sum, I want the mirror, pillow, and linens. Is that now requiring the champagne deal? I do not drink much. Though sparking is one of my preferences and I would likely be purchasing at least one drink anyway. The fee allocated to the 3-hr cabin seems to be portioned out at 20-25€. I certainly prefer having that space and no problem with the cost. I had often wished I could shut myself off between tricks, with some intrusive-type guys constantly importuning and all. Can you still book and pay those features without bubbly? I simply want to anticipate how to plan for the new system there. Is the majority of (inclusive in entrance) cabins still crappy, no mirror, no sheets?

My pharmacist gave me some new instructions for on-demand tenofovir/emtricitabine for upcoming trips south. Perhaps I had been previously unaware of the options. I had been taking one tab for 7 consecutive days prior to potential activity. It is apparently adequate to consume 2 tabs within 2-24 hours prior to activity initiation, followed by one tab per day every 24 hrs subsequent to the initial double dose, including 48 hours following last activity (for good measure I will do 72 hours, that is, 3 follow-up doses post-coital) to adjust for where in the 24-hour block final activity occurs). My big head gets muddled cuz my little head is not amenable to pill alert apps. As far as on-demand interruption, say for example a break of 2 weeks in activity, this suggests that one can be off the meds for about 11-12 days duration. However, some consumers may wish to maintain the antiviral protection and continue taking it as opposed to starting fresh prior to the next schedule of activity. It is a matter of preference and practicality as well as renal burden because, as most of you know, drug resistance is not a problem. If a known HIV exposure occurs, it remains recommended to seek post-exposure PEP measures because the extra medicinal component is more effective. I like this new system because I may delay activity following sex-candy shop arrival, but can predict if sex will occur a few hours later from any given point in time, unless accidentally unintentionally prison-raped Adibisi-style (without the peaches can concussion) on any social anthropological Santo Domingo jail tour. In fact, I have previously taken up to 2-3 weeks unnecessarily due to activity postponement, but in 'just in case' mode. In sum, several weeks technically unnecessary consumption over 18 months. Luckily my social universal health care covers the majority of the cost. And I think greater uptake perhaps assisted me to eventually tolerate better the initial side effects. kkkkkkk ... a pop-up response alert just occurred as I was writing this, related to a different thread. Quelle surprise. Alack, alas, time's up and moving on. I hope it wasn't apologist [insert JustJack and Karen(exWalker) raucous laughter].

This is why, as an afterthought, I had considered it would be better to msg the OP privately, even though I directed the question to him specifically. Funny how respondents here are quick to assume the mantle of a poster to whom a statement is specifically directed. I realize the system is not HBO's Deuce-grade, but I have never been to the DR, unlike you, and Manny seems to have been consistently featured in some kind of role in the accounts described. In my communications Manny seems flexible, but I thought it would be prudent to inquire here rather than second-guess when there. A false step in any setting can leave one with a permanent case of blue-balls. Yeah, maybe I am 'that guy' to some extent, but what's it to you? I spent a fair amount of time researching the threads and would have appreciated a simple and hospitable answer to a question that was actually extremely easy to answer. My question was not in the category of inquiries that are repeated and repeatedly answered ad nauseam within the overall sub-forum. I take it, then, that Manny and his protegés have a well-oiled (tee-hee) methodology for reconciling brokered dates in tandem with the guys' one:one appointments. In all three or so related threads, the arrangement algorithm had not been made explicitly clear (to my knowledge). According to you, perhaps, I am the type of client that trips himself up ruminating about the playbook rules in a particular context. My sense is that you were keenly aware that the OP would answer graciously, but you just had to get a dig in. I won't be so bold as to attribute particular character traits but, toots, you either lack a life (I think we all get that is not the case!) or are the penultimate multi-tasker Now go and have a nice lunch ... unplug for a minute! In a minute ... It would have looked silly and even more superfluous if you had added the snark following the OP's concise answer, an answer he trailed behind you by mere minutes, assuming he viewed your correct info but was kind enough to handle the Q/A in a way that contained all that was required. All you could have said meaningfully at that point (if he got to it first) was your 1st sentence. Here, of course, I use 'meaningfully' loosely. What is going on that impels you to be scanning, apparently relentlessly at times, for Tourettes-grade put-down ops? They are not necessarily particularly offensive, and often not lacking in cleverness, but I suggest you think some more about how you handle the tremendous burden of astutely knowing everyone's number. Is this soul? The high quality of your contributions ordinarily obviates the need for snotty non sequitur in logic. Roget that. I think I can safely assume that the OP's good-naturedness will leave the door open for additional apparently ignorant and picayune but easily answered questions I might, in fact do, have. Best posed in private msg mode. I predict a salvo coming up that you can be assured will be for the sole benefit of your justfans, and will perhaps add an additional tinfoil layer to the complex array of soap-opera-level changeable alliances that occur here. Perhaps this is the best place to remind you of the average 8-second attention span of social media, so quote and retort will be lost on any but your most ardent admirers. I am forthwith disentangled from this thread. I have enough info to go on for an enjoyable trip. No thanks to you. You don't make me want to be a better me. I am, yes, pouting as I debate whether and what to report later. You got me.

You are an inspirational Santo Domingo ace, tennis ace! I am booked, in touch with Manny, and upgraded my luggage dimensions to accommodate Magnums. I can only fly direct Dec-April, so will do the nonstop this first time. At other times of the year I have to land in a Dominican resort town if I do not want a USA-located transfer. I wonder what your thoughts are on cutting loose Manny as the middle-man broker for an acompanhante you get to know over time. Some of these guys may not need chauffering for every date. What is the etiquette? I would want to keep in his good graces, not compromise the guys' arrangements with him, and not interrupt the supply chain or disrupt this tantalizing 'banana' economy. I ask the above because I think you alluded to getting some of the providers' contact information. For me, it is not about saving money ... the prices are low given the value I place on access ... but it might at times be inconvenient to order Manny's manly Über eating outs, perhaps easier to book a guy directly (and likely pay him more), and there would be no reason to open my billfold for the initial fixer. Again, I realize I may be blaspheming in terms of the pockets in which my cash lands. I would, however, not likely take a referral of a new fellow from one of the escorts. It would likely make sense to have the experienced Manny vet any new prospect. Then that way each local knows there is an overseer keeping things on the straight and narrow, even if dates eventually evolve outside of Manny's timetable.

I am halfway through several weeks in Mérida, Yucatán, MX. There have been many contributions, with interesting divergences in viewpoints, from several members about this area. I suggest to any Yucatecan virgins that they see for themselves, tossing themselves down the pit for a look and personal impressions. This is my final post and view in the topic on this new page. I am peacetime, armistice-minded lately. However, if a few of you wish an extended report, PM me briefly with your interest. I will receive a gmail notification and your short or abridged message. I will take the time to pull something together at the end, albeit amateurish, for a non-controversial group share/chat.

A thousand pardons, badboy ... I am tying up my loose thread here, shutting down my part in taking troll-bait. As you know, there are those with endless staying power. On balance, I would/should poke my eyes out with a stick if I really had the same stamina.

I can fly direct from Montreal, being islands français and what not. Gorgeous locales, Guad and StM. Champagne without the high tariffs when I was there. Not a sex destination. But those Québecois Haitians! One fellow an all-time 40-year best.

Latbear4blk, I have tackled your pinga blog a couple 'o' times!

Kkkkkk ... now I know what Clear Editor means here on the Board, rainmvan. If I could just figure out how to get it to function for overly ambitious spectral editors.

There are several transportation options, aren't there? Now they are pretty much outlined here. I am not saying "do what I would do". In fact, don't. If you do catch me saying "Do this", please do protest. I took taxis there previously for longer distances. I walked from Pelhourinho lodgings up a grade and down to 11 during last light but not after dark. [Insert 1st critique here]. Now I have the Über app and a Metro map for future elective use. I do not mind quiet contemplation getting from A to B, or reading a few pages of a book, easily done on the tube. I do admittedly enjoy senior public transport privileges non-existent at home, but I do not have a nutty relationship to money either. I do think that I spent a bit much on that 4-week trip 3 years back, 5-figures CDN. Five of the days in Salvador. Now a little more conservationist, or at least saving a bit here and there is psychologically soothing if not otherwise economically meaningful. I don't need to get into a cock-fight (current Mérida YUCATAN neighbour has 4 fighting roosters, get to work that in here) about how to travel ... the additional general points made here are not new, repeated a lot perhaps due to so many decision variables. In fact, I had described the Metro option months ago and I am myself culpable in relation to repetition. I don't have an anxiety disorder related to getting to a whorehouse a few minutes later , since being somewhat of a fatalist and leaning towards lurking, and the OP stated his preference for not getting too tangential or nit-picky, which now I am snubbing according to our predominant tribal customs, within which I have moderate commitment for fitting. But sufficiently insufficient to follow this very fascinating thread further while a glorious tropical Sunday beckons, offering respite from blizzards at home. Suum cuique.

Kkkkk ... I think many readers will see that as a typo for Ass Wednesday. Interesting question. I thought that following Shrove Tues and the commencement of Lent, Carnaval was 'never say die' ... I believe that one year I arrived early in Lent and there was more in terms of residual festivities still going strong compared to penitents in sackcloth.

I am phoning in a small tip ... From Barra area, Metro can work reasonably well to get to Fox. Embark Lapa stn, disembark Rodoviaria stn, not to be confused with Rodoviaria-Iguatemi bus stn (not Metro). Then it's hoofing, cabbing, or Übering the 1.9 kms s/e to Fox. Saves a lot on ride fare or time on bus routes. Actually, the north subway route from Lapa takes you one stop to Campo da Polvora stn, a few blocks and few minutes walk to Clube 11. I learned all this following my trip there, so hope one day to try out these transport options, including possibly getting into town from the airport via Metro.

Am I correct that photos #2 and #3 were both fellows sourced from the referenced contact Manny? I was not sure, as many guys were mentioned in this excellent account. What a great resource. How does one reward Manny for his brokering? Maybe he is simply magnanimous but I would want to give him something for his efforts. A gift? Or does he provide other services? I would be new to Santo Domingo and would take him up on some initial guiding if available. ------ OK, I found the "Sizzling" thread commenced early Dec, so the 2nd part of my question above is covered, thanks. Unless there is an update. Finder's fee for vetted guys, all of which look to be my type, makes good sense to me.

I have not been to Asia. Prostitute muscle = sex. Stripper muscle = some level of sexual play. I understand built guys are hit-and-miss in the Bangkok clubs. I am sure you can find Thai physique fellows in social media but that is a long game requiring time, money, and risk ... you might be able to extract sexual favours if you deposit generously into a competitors expense go-fund-me. If you yourself go to the gym, irrespective of physical shape, sometimes asking a guy to meet and train you locally is an entry point. That said, they are more on the hunt for gear and nutrition sponsorships, not so much benefactors swooning over them. We both suffer from pursuit of the elusive. I have only been with one ethnic Asian in my lifetime. A big gorgeous 100% Japanese brasileiro traditional martial arts garoto at Lagoa who gave it all up. So freakin' hot. And a macho built Japanese-Caucasian admixtured powertop with shocked-dyed blonde hair at 117. Sadly, that one occurred prior to wising up and obtaining contact info. Never spotted him again.

I think we previously discussed that actual competitions are not likely going to yield trade. The bodybuilding and physique fitness competitors are busy, stressed, dehydrated, caught up in their routines, and tied up with their coaching teams and the like. You are not going to mingle without an official role and name badge. They are under the microscope at these events. There are no major Asian continent IFBB or Musclemania events in Thailand this year. You would have to drill down and research country-specific competitions or regional qualifiers. thaibody.com is one lead but may not be up to date and may tend to report after-the-fact. It is a vastly growing sport and different federations springing up, so difficult to keep up. Another lead:

Sorry, you are correct, I meant the private curtained areas at GEH (Bogotá). Thanks for the info and the reconnaissance. I think it makes sense for me to pay a dancer directly in cash. In Mexico City I found it complicated when everything had to go on a runnng tab (or even in Colombia if you pay by credit as-you-go to the dancer). In Mexico City there were squadrons of staff in your face along with the dancer to make sure everyone got their cut ... annoying. In NYC in some places you pay a fee to enter the private area, each time you take a dancer in. Canada is the simplest and fairest to the dancers. It appears that in Colombia that model can apply. At Theatron I would likely tend to slip a generous tip and note to a go-go I like when he is not actually on stage. The joke is that that gratuity would likely be astronomical by their standards. I understand the Bogotá climate is quite cool even in March the warmest month. It appears that Medellin-bound from Bogotá the plane has to begin its descent almost as soon as it reaches cruising altitude.
