Riobard

The speedo or briefs really narrows it down ... Max (sauna handle), Thiago, Reinaldo from Parana state, Djalma who recently returned, tall Wesley from Ceara state, and your guy I recognize from description but who's the one bathing beauty with whom I have not interacted (yet) and whose name escapes me. Maybe next time I am back. I am curious as hell and the build-up is suspensefully erotic, even if he is a dud!

I noticed this year that some of the working guys bleach their hair temporarily for New Years (white garments have significance as well), or Carnival. Even the notorious Fernando. It either grows out quickly if short and is buzzed off, or some dye it back dark soon after.

It is mandatory to be able to produce photo ID. If a xerox copy of passport is what you carry it is advisable to accompany it with another original document such as student, health, driver lic card. But it should have picture, name, and date of birth corresponding to passport copy.

What a good idea! I usually carry my passport as I use Metro ... next time I will bring my photo health card and see if it is accepted. I have no drivers license. A color copy of passport has occasionally worked. Anyone know the language nuances PT of "cash reward if returned to owner, no questions asked". And you add your phone # ('zap)?

... but then Bruno sees you headed to 117, not 98, jumps out of the Chevy, proclaims he is horny as hell, and you both check into Alameda where you fuck like animals before you get into 117 for your 1st "paid" encounter?

Gotti, I skipped Pnt202 this week. What was this new entrance charge/add-on? I have been paying R60 for any night all winter.

I almost immediately rewatched LG's I Am Love (2009) on Netflix after viewing CMBYN. Definitely worth a look particularly if you missed it. Interestingly, the story begins in snowy winter Italy and ends in summer, with camera on main character outdoors during endroll.

Bear in mind that you and hundreds of thousands are landing in Rio, Tex. If you leave, finding a domestic flight, or bus for that matter, to return will be a big challenge unless it is after the peak. I already ran into a transportation jam-up recently due to a preC bloco. For strategies getting around, Rio Times (online) is one way to likely get the street fest dates and locations (not strategies). The schedule might also help you to clue in what nights might be sleepless where you are lodging.

By the way, if you have not discovered it, an additional site has listings under Erotico ... netgay.com.br When you click on SP acomps, there is an option to click and and REQUEST to join a group in which it is implied there might be some user discussion about the models. I have not joined, but if it is FB type it may have text translation.

Excellent and informative. We can stop suggesting to you what you should like! The city is sprinkled with dangerous zones, some of which may start abruptly adjacent to an OK area. Mvan has already volunteered advice and he would be the go-to. I am likely breaking with tradition (Rio) and doing a few weeks in SP late summer early autumn. Hope you report back!

I think that you will find, Erik, that there is not much familarity among members here with respect to the specific advertisers you list. I echo the caution advice of others here if you are inexperienced. I look at the sites all the time and I find that the saunas have better looking guys. And you can see up front what you are getting. I also sense that some of the destaques look bigger than in person because they tend to be short in stature. Without true visual perspective the actual body mass may not be great, especially if you yourself are tall. Some of these guys might advertise because there is a "trickle down" effect in which the hottest guys may be more prevalent in the spas, and the guys advertising might not do well there. Or as suggested, some of them can be found in both location types. Why are you negatively predisposed to the spas? Providing context helps to focus our responses. Remember that you can source and vet guys at the spas as well if one of the things driving your preference is having them in your own space. As you can see, we may be getting off page regarding your inquiry because you have not really told us anything other than listing a bunch of guys we don't likely know.

The homeless in my south zone neighborhood demonstrate a staggeringly impressive work ethic ... double shifts in oppressively hot weather. It is a 433 against 1 unfair fight in this city, give or take data inaccuracy. It is favorably loaded towards the homeless over the privileged because sheer survival drive and resilience outweigh the pathetic lack of organization of those with a roof and and a full belly. The problem is not the growth of the problem. The problem is that even within any closed-system community of 400 residents anywhere in our society there can be no agreement reached on sharing the responsibility of carrying merely 1 of their own.

This now makes Argentina the bigger bully, at least costwise ... 15% of visitors to Brazil aim for Iguassu Falls. I don't care too much about the change in convenience level of documentation. It is more about cascade effects such as the local economy, but Sao Paulo and Rio are likely the only areas to really benefit. I realize this eliminates one barrier for the less committed. More importantly, will we see airlines naming their fare price based on revised supply/demand, or will we experience an expansion in transportation options? How about Rio direct from LA, Chicago, a major CDN city? And I do not think Bahia region will benefit much. It is targeted by about 3% of visitors. Who the fuck wants the ridiculous zigzag getting to Salvador requires? A weekly direct flight, at a minimum, would be great. But now there is the potential tourist offset of a spike in yellow fever in a major destination, SP, where locals are in queue for a fractionated inoculation. Poor Brazil cannot catch a break. In Canada at the travel clinic reception while waiting for my flu vacc, the phones constantly ringing with requests for YF vaccine. I was fortunate to get a permanent inculation in a hospital Tropical Med clinic. $200.

Totally Oz, I would say I would not mind some tips about how to knit together the vast volume of info about money spent and how to transcend those aspects that often end up with argumentative volleying, but I have got it down for myself. It only took a few days of sex worker encounters to nail it down. Have been at it for many decades. As a result, I find reading the threads rather like a day of interesting or expedient shopping interrupted by having to DIRECTLY witness long lineups of cart cashouts where some shoppers are extra vigilent (Sp?) about payment process. I can read a book at the store if I need to fill in dead time, for example, but I find it takes a lot of effort to sift thru the reports here. The yawning is contagious, I might add. A deficiency on my part. Perhaps I might dramatically change up my perspective by taking the lead on initiating a novel Pulitzer Prize category for the economic specifics of prostitution-centric forum platforms Better yet, I would be keen for posters who are itemizing their garoto cashouts, or their fans, to review and hightlight the ONE brief slice of a related report that exemplfies the attention-grabbing creativity that some readers find noteworthy if not awesome. How might a "byte" be stuctured and packaged, so to say, if there were to be a hypothetical marketing ploy to attract more contributors, not just a handful of BT members but a larger community of posters. I seem to be missing it so far. A deficiency on my part, surely. One of many.

FloridaRob, "ironic" was the bigly word ...you misused it in my view, as many often do, and now I will take this a step further and suggest you look up meanings prior to smartass comments. My post reflected some frustration about the flow of a thread. I was not aware that seniority privileged content or length of contributions. I would be OK with an enforced gradient of length and topical prerogative, but none exists here. Does it? It may be dramatically ironic that others are in on you being iconic though I am not. It may be situationally ironic that icy inhospitable retorts can be blown out of one's ass. It may be verbally ironic I feel a need to pull out what very little hair remains on my scalp. The only thing remotely accurate about your use of the word ironic is that it was anaemic. If anything, the length of my post was incidental. I would go as far as to offer that it was not co-incidental. It fell quite short of the breadth of the infusion of money talk I objected to. I fail to understand how there was irony in my post. In my view, you pulled a word out of the air to justify a criticism. I myself have done this in my lifetime. When I volleyed back, you replied with a less than fully coherent CV that does little to add to the discussion. I won't share my CV here because I am not playing "Me, X ... you, Y, lesser life form". You know the rules. Don't engage unless you can acknowledge that what makes things most interesting is the possibility of losing ground in a debate.

Yet not situationally ironic because it did not have an effect on you the opposite of what would be expected. What is odd is gratuitous editorializing out of defensiveness.

'Riobard out ' for 4 weeks remaining here ... maybe back in the deep-freeze in Feb between ski days I will feel moved to summarize my winter here in Brasil, but y'all know I will responsibly read the latest here first and $$ obsession you know rubs me the wrong way. How about an ice bucket challenge for the forum in January? That is, put money themes on ice? No discussion of any utility exhanges with working guys unless in the topic title or a new topic's poster greenlights such discussion. Hahahahah, what am i thinking?! Anyway, wasted 'nuff time here today. One of my top 3 BFE faves is scheduled for this evening. Ate lago!

No photos too post, though I do have many pics of working guys for my private collection and their privacy collectively, so I take it you agree money would be the tiresome default "go to" over which MOST members contributing to this series resort to tirelessly ... too tirelessly. Anyway, 28 days of followup here in BRZ have pretty much eclipsed my caipirinha-hazed memories of the birthday.

This question was also covered recently in a previous post. That post comibined with the new answers here is perhaps more informative overall. I myself have found it helpful to pull up more complete info by using the forum search fields as an adjunct to putting forward an inquiry. Re Floripa you won't be swamped.

By the time I got to Pope Frank's day 7 I was so fed up with the typically obsessional and inane money/gift riffing that I threw in the towel as was smothered by a wet blanket. The topic got off to a great start. Nothing new is being said about the currencies, even the more thoughtful insightful contributions have been covered ad infinitum. I for one can live without these interminable intermissions. An interest in Curitiba and Francis' fun (though rudely interrupted) presentation style may impel me to circle back. But I feel it is more important to protest having my enjoyment fucked over than to continue reading. It is like being at a 4 ring circus where the 4th ring is expendable and needs to be carpet bombed or placed stand alone once and for all. Guys, please please please shut the fuck up and allow a good post to thrive. I will give it a shot again next month. Maybe there will be some good unblocked information flow. In the meantime, I have posted about Belo Hor based on an earlier commitment. My months in Rio are not about to reviewed here because , frankly, I think there is a partial collective Tourette's-like (involuntary?) verbal diarrhea slinging about money, rates, gifts, blah blah blah. And no more of my topics are going to be highjacked by this insanity. So WTF choice is there? I lack the forbearance of the scene in The Square that those of you who catch it will grasp. I admire your papal patience, Francis.

I was in Belo Horizonte Tues Dec 12 to Sat Dec 16. The city is not very interesting. Pampulha's lake shoreline (a jaunt up to the St Francis Assisi church ... closed) is completely littered with trash. The art gallery there was closed. The surrounding hills of BH are verdant and red soiled; day trips to Inhotim art park and Ouro Preto were splendid. Grindr was a wash. Stayed Royal Centre Express by Sauna Olimpo. I was not convinced it would be easy to bring guys in, despite others' assertions to the contrary. I would suggest elevator at the street entrance (the multilane avenue) one below where parking lives, as can bypass the reception. I did not try myself. Olimpo: nice venue, but sparse on hot guys. Tues, Wed, Thurs I would not have tricked even for free. Maybe a dozen or so, but no real lookers. Friday saw a lot more working guys, similarly not at all attractive compared to Rio, SP, Salvador. More like Fortaleza (and my personal poor albeit brief experience PA). But as the sayings go, sometimes a pearl can be found if you see a unicorn and search up its arse and rifle thru the oysters there, and on Friday one of the most stunning looking guys I have ever seen and done in BRZ (hell, in my lifetime, anywhere) was present and available. He redeemed the trip sexually and person-wise aesthetically, but I am a little pissed that he is there and not interested in travel, and that our encounter was at wrap-up, because I may have to return just for him and the place itself IMHO is really not worth visiting outside of this obsession. Note I do not respond to inquiries about financial costs. If you must know, go yourself, or read endless argumentative related posts here in this forum. What I am agreeable to sharing is that I obviously barely grazed the sex budget coffers. Overall, if your tastes run to muscular-build model-look fellows and you want a few options of these types, I suggest taking a pass on this city. Subjectively, the aforementioned guy was a 9.5, but many 8s and 9s can be had at 117 or 202 in Rio. Though I must say there are a lot of head-turners in public if not Grindr and Olimpo.

I have some stories to share about last night, but first the topic of money must be addressed. Who would like to open the discussion?

Hahahaha ... some of you caught on to there being no clear point in my attempts to contribute to the payment topic. Could anybody really sum up and knit together the many, often disparate, pieces of thought put forward here? I could give a rat's ass about anyone's opinion on this subject because I don't need to have an opinion of my own about this subject. I think this makes me the most sane or insane person in the thread. That is how nutty it is. I must admit, though, there is an obsessionality about it and we we will see it played out in interminable groundhog day style. I find myself drawn to the posts like a moth to flame. You can almost time to the minute when money will inevitably come up. Once introduced into a thread it becomes like a fast-spreading weed choking out the topic's purpose. It can never be shut down because too many posters need to have the last word, and too much attention span is required. I hope mine is not the final word that shuts it down. Who could tolerate such omnipotence? I find the whole thing incredibly amusing as a kind of collective character trait, ideas defying meaningful integration while colliding off each other. Then me unwittingly putting myself out there as a whipping boy, offering the one opportunity for unification among those polarized in their futile attempts to give readers a true roadmap for the topic of money. Interestingly, I think this topic should never be shelved because it cannot be put to rest. It is immortal and beloved. I think we should just resign ourselves to living with it, stockholm syndrome style. I get a kick out of it, while kicking myself for it.

I think I only very very partly understand, as my hand periodically moves up to my noggin to scratch, as if it has a mind of its own. So we are advised to pay no heed to what the prostitutes think of us, as we are simply unidimensional cash flow sources. Yet we are to be wary of these brainiacs' perceptions of us as sucker-punch-bags regarding fees, so in that one small point-of-pride arena we are to make an exception. And I am to care what a handful of local club-goers think of me, WHY? This small gaggle of potentially embittered locals can potentially make or break my travel experience here? I am to differentially accommodate the local customers by paying what they pay while not accommodating the hopes of prostitutes for better profits? My Convoluted Reasoning & Anti-intellectual Pomposity (CRAP) meter dial is flippin' off the charts. I am fine with paying what the trend is, but I just won't swallow a flimsy rationale, thank you very much.

Ok, then. Kkkkk. One zero-sum game console play per port.
