  1. All I can say is 5 out of the 6 status options encourage people to be open and honest about their status. But then there's the one for the people who don't want to share their status (for whatever reason).
  2. Funny, people on BBRT (which uses "Ask Me") say "Ask Me" = poz. In contrast, DADT = "I don't want to talk about it" or "It's none of your business". It's not saying anything about whether your poz or neg. That said, "assume everyone is poz" is a good mantra when it comes to bareback sex. The fact that "Ask Me" or DADT may be interpreted as poz is not a bad thing. Given the discussion on this site, HIV status is very relevant. Because no one ever does. If you want to state your status you can either be up front about it or mention it privately. "Ask Me" puts a false veneer on the issue, and if there's one thing I don't like is false veneers.
  3. I hear you, but 1) I don't think I can make it mandatory, 2) blank statuses are boring, an 3) I've never liked "Ask Me" - 'cause it's rare that people actually do ask - far more people just don't ask and don't tell...
  4. The idea behind Don't Ask, Don't Tell (besides the political pun) is that a lot of barebackers don't want to discuss their status or think about the risk they're taking or the risk their fuck buddy is taking. If someone isn't telling their status, that's more or less where they're coming from. They have to be general categories - not freeform dates. You can put the date in one of the other profile fields.
  5. Just wanted to let people know I've updated the choices for HIV status for profiles... The new choices are: Don't Ask, Don't Tell Poz, Not On Meds Poz, On Meds Neg, Recently Tested Not Sure, Probably Neg Not Sure, Probably Poz Notice neg only applies if you're recently tested - otherwise, Not Sure - Probably Neg would be the best choice. I've also separated poz guys based on whether they're on meds or not. If you don't want to say whether you're on meds - then Don't Ask, Don't Tell is the best answer for you. The statuses you selected in the past haven't changed. So take a moment and go into your profile and pick one of the new HIV statuses to let other guys know more about you...
  6. Probably. BMP is Windows-specific. JPEG and PNG are cross-platform file formats and more likely to work.
  7. What's done is done. Stop feeling guilty and make the best of your current situation. Sounds like you want to be a slut - so be a slut! You're already paid to ride the ride - go ahead and ride it...
  8. I've been wanting a slave/houseboy for a while now. In a month or two we'll be moving and I'll finally have the space to have a slave. The concerns about what the slave does when his master is done with him (or dies) is a concern, but not so much in my case... I'd have the slave work for me and from that work he'd have a half-way decent resume when he's no longer my slave. The trick is health insurance... The slave would need it and I'd need two employees before the cost of health insurance gets reasonable. So the OP isn't crazy - it can work - but it's best to find a master who is self-employed to keep the resume active. Then there's also the immigration issue...
  9. Thanks guys, but I'm sorta suspending the search until approx. February... Too much going on in my life until then.
  10. Have any of you bottoms tried advertising in the straight venues (like the straight part of Craigslist) - basically saying "when you can't find a woman and just need a hole... An ass is an ass..." Wonder if you could attract straight guys that way...
  11. Let me know if you want my load...
  12. barebackzg's comments are good... Make sure you're really clean (eat lightly or not at all before hand and clean out really well). Just decide you're going to be a slut that night - let down your guard and just take dick from whomever. You might even take a blindfold with you so you can concentrate on taking loads and not be distracted by what the tops look like. And of course, concentrate on getting the load as each top fucks you - whatever it takes... Be the best / most accommodating bottom at the party.
  13. No, just Hep A & B. Treatments don't always work for Hep C and the people who can't get rid of it say it's worse than having HIV.
  14. The NY Times just did a profile of a book where an epidemiologist explains where HIV came from and how it spread. There are a number of "accelerators" he discusses including the colonial public health service which was giving people shots with syringes that weren't cleaned properly... It is interesting that he's tracked HIV back to about 1921. Apparently HIV2 has been around for a long time - it's milder and people can live with it (unmedicated) for decades... http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/18/health/18aids.html It's a good read.
  15. I had made the reservation, but it turns out the timing for me is just really bad this year, so I can't make it to MAL after all. I'll try to do IML instead. If anyone wants my room reservation, let me know - I have a corner room reserved - should be pretty nice.
  16. Posts in the members' blog area have to be approved before they go live. I delete probably 25% of what gets posted there because it's the wrong section of the site to post that particular thing (and I can't move from blog to forum)...
  17. Not exactly true. Social scientists currently define the terms "straight" and "gay" to be about what relationship the person wants to be in. So there are lots of "straight men who have sex with men" (straight MSMs). So it's perfectly normal to want a relationship with woman and sex with men.
  18. You'll be getting most of your loads in saunas and you want to try to stay neg... Forget about it... YOU WILL BECOME POZ if you routinely take anonymous loads. It's one thing to ask a date their status and expect honesty, but it's absurd to ask an anonymous top their status and expect honesty.
  19. From chatting with you I know you have dreams and aspirations... You're also a bit reserved and cautious... All of those things could be issues as a sub slave. Letting your owner call the shots takes a certain mentality when it's 24/7/365... That said, you'd be perfect in many ways...
  20. I know viral load is highest right after infection, but how long does that last before it drops? Is bisexstud still in the period when high viral loads are expected?
  21. I used to use Gun Oil, but now prefer Wet Platinum...
  22. Moved the thread to the NYC sub-forum - makes more sense here...
  23. There are problems with it and getting it work reliably has been almost impossible. I can't keep asking my host to restart things, and I don't have the time right now to get to the bottom of it. I'll get to it when I can, but it will be a few days.
  24. My loads tend to be bigger and thicker if it's been a couple days (or more) since I last came. When I give a bottom a big load I figure it's better than a small one. But from my perspective a good load is one where you feel a big thick load blasting out of your dick into the bottom and it goes on for a while - pulse after pulse of thick white jizz (not that it's ever seen since it's going up the bottom's ass, but I can tell it was a big load).
