Well, good suggestion to get back to the original post. For everyone. Now, I did remove any posts in this thread with porn in them. Also, I did not split it as I could not figure out where the fuck to split anything. There are good comments here and some people just post to hear themselves at times. No Sandbox either. Everyone has different life experiences. Having had a gaggle of guys with me on multiple occasions, I know how easy it is. I once took an entire bar of boys (over 40) to bowling and disco and then to my home. They were there for the money. But, I told them in advance the rate (less than a normal night) and the plans. Not one choose not to go. Guys like to have fun as well and if they get fun and food and good company, they are then happier than they were earlier in that day. Regardless of what anyone says, their life is not easy, it is not glorious and it is a hard life. When they have someone who is kind to them, treats them with respect and appreciates them, they do more for less. The first picture in this thread told me all I needed to know. These guys were having fun and enjoying a good time. It was easy for me to understand. But, I'm a simple man. Tartegogo, MsGuy, RockHardNYC and 3 others 3 3 Quote

It wasnt hard to see that you removed the 2 Beautiful blonde NUDE muscle boys that were standing there doing nothing but holding a blanket around them. Funny that simple nudity is viewed as porn ? Some would view it as ART as I am sure the photog intended.... None-the-less, that's the world we live in now, or at least the site we participate on... I find it silly but I am only the offender, not the moderator... That section of this thread is now disjointed, but ya'll gonna have to live with it. Sorry for making your Friday night so BUSY, Mr Oz ! But with all that deletin, you'll sleep well !!! 'Side note: Wondering if Oz, like Daddy would permit us posting porn as a link in a thread, where it isnt visible unless it is clicked on ? Sometimes a hint on porn enhances a thread or a point a contributor is trying to make, or in the very least, makes the thread more "interesting".... Quote

I have tried to save my share of street trade in my time, some successful, some not, but your sweeping generalities about trade not wanting to be saved is as ignorant as your "rule" that you say applies to all strippers, escorts, gogo boys, masseurs. sauna boys. streetwalkers, hustlers, porn stars, webcam models and all sex workers. I have no intention of even starting a conversation with someone who blindly holds such prejudicial views. All the best...Have a great weekend ( and by all means, I will allow you the last word on this) Sorry I hit a nerve. The need to rescue usually says more about the person trying to rescue than the Rapunzel / Damsel in Distress / Pretty Woman that the person is trying to rescue. Co-dependency is the term used in addiction circles. It’s okay. You defensively think I’m judging or attacking you, but I’m just identifying what it is. Just own it. We all have our crosses to bear.

I’m not old enough to know the glory days of the 70s, and didn’t hit NYC streets and clubs until I was a teen in the mid to late 80s. But it all pretty much came crashing down by mid-1995, when Ghouliani Disneyfied Times Square, and by the early 2000s, the West Village and surrounding hoods’ street scenes were dead.

You weren't looking very closely then. As posted here before, there is even now a pretty lively street scene in the very middle of Times Sq of 17yo loosie-cigarette hustlers eager to go home with you and sell you their cock and/or ass.

We clearly have VERY different tastes in not only trade, but men altogether. I wouldn’t do underage (or underage appearing) boys or young men. BTW, I should’ve also mentioned that Ghouliani successfully drove out the black and Latino street scene in Manhattan and most now gentrified parts of Brooklyn and Queens. Times Square had plenty of hustler and trade spots like peep shows and gogo dancer spots that were mostly black and brown men. Although other mainstays like The Gaiety, Stella’s and Show Palace were shut down as well. The Port Authority used to be trade central, but that’s been cleaned up as well. Quote

Members tassojunior Posted July 7, 2018 Members Posted July 7, 2018 In case I haven't expressed it well enough, I totally appreciate TomCal's threads and posts, even though I frequent Europe more. It's surprising the similarities of dealing with guys everywhere and also the unique aspects of different locations. TomCal's writings are 5*. SolaceSoul, Tomcal and brockmiller 2 1 Quote
