  1. I was (ahem...consenting age in my state), he was (almost) 18. As you might expect, it was a lot of clumsy fumbling since he was a huge premature ejaculator, and he wasn't at all big (about little finger size, that's being generous). He barely got in and was done in about 10 seconds. We flipped and it worked better with him bottoming. It was memorable in that it was so off-the-chart bad. Spoke with others who knew him that spilled the tea, and suffice to say their experiences were equally tragic. Also heard he was married and then divorced after his wife turned lesbian, so that was two genders he drove away. 🤣
  2. Like "Side piece". I thought about that once too, then I consulted I think Urban Dictionary after a brief web search and got corrected. And I wish it was only 20-somethings. In my own experience, it gets defined as "a noob who thinks he wants to be with a guy, but dislikes most of the things that guys might do together, including oral and penetration". If it did mean side dish, at least someone's salad might be getting tossed. 🤣
  3. I was waiting for someone to mention that. Often it tastes a bit like pool water. I've found a more savory, slightly bitter flavor to it, combined with that pool water. Asparagus and Brussel sprouts are a huge turn-off. It's not at all unpleasant to me. Now that has me curious to try. 😉
  4. I was thinking the same thing. I had a condom nazi for a bottom exactly one time in the last 15 or so years. I tried, really did, but it wasn't happening so I told him to find someone else, not interested in something so boner-killing. I've never had to be asked and even discussion of status now doesn't happen that often. Only in online hookups is it ever a conversation because it's stated on a profile. Likewise from a top perspective. When someone tries to make conversation about 'safe' or 'condoms', it goes no further. Want to impale yourself on me raw? You won't hear me complaining.
  5. I've encountered this more and more, and it comes down to people not bothering to read any longer versus looking at the pictures. But that's another tale about apps seeming to regress people in real life situations. Could not agree more. It feels like a total waste of time and effort to me when we clearly are not on the same wavelength to start. To me, it's like walking into the car dealer because you want a new car that has some power to it and having the smarmy salesperson show you only bicycles and tricycles proclaiming how fantastic the "open air/self-powered experience" is. Or... Just like I can't imagine walking into Burger King and only wanting onion rings or fries and a drink, or sitting down at a steak house and ordering a caesar salad and asparagus with béarnaise, I would miss the climaxes that make the experience fulfilling to me. Orgasms can be incredibly cathartic and amazing. But without that experience, it feels like I'm trying to make a meal composed of 'side dishes'. XX and XY. Rarely is it ever XXY or XYY for the specific sexes ("following the science"). But you're right, I once saw a drop-down list that exceeded the normal scroll line of gender descriptions and I thought I needed a translation guide to understand what all of these are. When it comes down to getting our freak on, I simply want to know if between us we have two pegs or one peg and a couple possible entry points. Beyond that call yourself what you want. But if I need to read a novel to get to the punchline, I've probably left the conversation. (Yes, that was called sarcasm for anyone not so inclined, it's one of my kinks)
  6. That's my hard-and-fast rule: If I need to involve my travel agent in my sex life, it's not happening. I broke that rule exactly one time when I wasn't in a great frame of mind. There's a much longer story about the early days of the internet, early Instant Messaging Apps, exposing a Catfish (before that was even a term) and how I wound up in a remote part of West Texas that I might post another time.
  7. I, too, don't like About Me's that focus more on "About you", or everything I do not want. So I try to balance it to be informative. Like... Have a pic Please do not just wink/smile/oink and give me nothing on what you're about. Please be local, I don't involve my travel agent in my sex life. All pretty basic things. And like the post below... Yep. Every single one will go through and ask questions already answered if they read my profile rather than use the profile info as a jumping off for conversation. There is one app/site where the location for literally thousands of guys is dead center of Kansas (Cheyney, KS). I looked up the town. There are more people on apps that say they're from there than actual residents. 🤣 If I see that in a profile, my block game is on point. We should probably post the common indicators to determine a bogus profile. Like dudes who say "Am" versus "I am" or "I'm" is indicative of Nigerian/Ghanian scammers.
  8. For a second, I had to check whether I was in the Politics Sub. 🤣 Here's my observations. I'm an early Gen X'er. That says most of what you need to know about me, except that I'm libertarian/moderate-conservative. I'm tolerant, open and honest knowing that my stances will likely get a few downvotes for my stating my positions simply because they disagree, and that's becoming more the norm than practicing any sort of tolerance whatsoever for differing perspectives. I'm growing tired of the constant arguments of "I stepped on Lego in bare feet, it's Trump's fault", or blaming things on one person rather than offering up other options. While I pity them for not having the ability to reason things out for themselves and suggest productive alternatives, a lot of people are just "fatigued" from it all. Where I'll differ and need to quote @PozBearWI is the following: He's right. As a community, we are loosely cobbled together with a bunch of disparate groups who innately dislike each other. Gays aren't happy with straight views, lesbians are vehemently unhappy with anyone who isn't lesbian, the rest of the rainbow alphabet dislikes bisexuals, trans folks don't generally get much love from any of the other constituencies, the list goes on. Even here, what's there in the LGBTQIAP2S+++ (I'm sure I'm leaving yet another constituency out, ergo the +++) to make anyone think that this community is like-minded? Hell, I'd give my left nut to chuck the notion of politically correct speech and be able to speak what's on my mind respectfully without being gaslit or known as a pariah. We'd all do well to be tolerant of the reality that everyone's perspective is different. Let's agree to disagree, but at least be civil about it.
  9. City Paper, or PGN? I did a City Paper personal once about 30-something years ago and it was...an "interesting" experience. But in re to apps, I've had a similar experience. Mine says "no pic, no chat", give me a bit of opening banter, and here is what I'm NOT looking for (list). Amazingly, it's like my profile outcome excludes anything and everything I was seeking. 🙄
  10. You make great points as usual @ellentonboy. I suppose I was looking at it from more of a housekeeping perspective -- like if you went from Neg to Poz versus the finer points between. Hadn't considered that bit. And for those who think I don't admit when I'm wrong...here I am humbled. 😀
  11. Definitely go across state lines (I think New Mexico is still OK, as are other surrounding states) for Plan B before she gets knocked up. Sounds like you need to introduce him to how man-to-man stuff is and see if he likes it. If he's that passive about taking her shit all the time, good chance he'll make a pretty awesome bottom with the right persuasion. 😉
  12. It's the mystery behind that lack of an answer. Creates a sense of intrigue and danger. 🤣
  13. Interesting discussion that resurfaced. 😀 Men are definitely more libido driven and more capable of compartmentalizing sex as pleasure rather than an expression of love or deep emotional connection. Most women are emotionally driven from the outset and you aren't getting pussy unless she establishes that bond. Can men be faithful? Yes, but I don't think it's natural based on our biological programming. The emotional bond is great and the sex is different because most guys are more open if they have that depth with a partner. I think we can agree that for the majority of us, we're strongly sexual beings, we can get horny quickly and often. If the sexual chemistry is there with another guy, or you at least can feel some connection, it's on. But it doesn't mean we want to be around that other guy 24/7. We just wanna fuck. It probably explains why the divorce rate for M/M marriages is 29%, M/F marriages is 48%, and F/F is 71%. 🤣
  14. So I think I might have a different perspective. NKP has been a large miss for me, more talk than anything concrete. BBRT? That's iffy but I've made more headway there than elsewhere. Adam4Adam seems to be treated in gay circles as their version of eHarmony, and it yields nothing at all. But I'd say I've had better conversations here that could have more potential for meeting than any of the other four (I totally gave up on Grindr). Are you saying that the guys on these sites are falsely saying they're negative but are actually poz? Is this possibly a first step toward stealthing, or just a step to not reveal that until a more detailed conversation occurs? And of those Poz guys, how many of those you know are on meds/undectable versus detectable?
  15. Trust me, they know. So the ATM machine is the same kind (probably same provider) that I'd find in any bodega I shopped at in New York, which is a much more expensive place. The most I'd ever pay -- and trust me, I would only use those on very rare occasions -- is about $3-$4 for a fee. Clearly, the ATM owner is placing the machine there, charging the fee, and then making a deal with the venue owner to include an additional fee for them that's just tacked on. Keep in mind, this was a cash-only establishment, so they don't want to pay any merchant fees to Visa/Mastercard/American Express/Discover. I can't blame them, it's a total fucking monopoly that just makes money and provides a service for which they could charge probably a third of what they do. And the banks, card issuers, and the lot are in on the scam. So cash-only is fine with me, but gauging the punters for the 'privilege' of convenience to get cash without finding an outside ATM is just mercenary in nature.
  16. On the surface I'd agree. There's a "but" coming. Several months ago (when it was actually somewhat cold in Orlando), I checked out a couple gay bars in the area. Got to one that will remain nameless but is known for having a maze-like back yard where pretty much anything goes on. Got there, realized I was really low on cash, hit their ATM for $40. Got hit with a $9 ATM Service Fee! WTF!?!? This is just further shittification of LGBTQ businesses when they piss on their punters like that. (For those who want to know, the fees got more outrageous as you wanted more cash). I want more local businesses. I'd like it if people supported them. I'd outright love it if they supported us rather than do stupid shit that leaves bad impressions and doesn't engender you to return. In this case, I won't be.
  17. So when's he going to realize that he likes what you're giving him and finally leave? Kids certainly aren't locking him down, and it sounds like pussy isn't either.
  18. Must agree with you on bathhouses, and the one I used to like when I visited Philly has now since closed. I get the impression that no one really does that so much anymore so the demand has decreased and supply has shrunk like a micropenis. I still have profiles on apps, and they are clear af on what I'm seeking, but I've as much as given up on every finding anything. And damn if I don't always get people who don't bother reading that and still respond if they aren't what I'm seeking. For instance: Bareback-only. I get every condom profile in a 500 mile range. Local only. Every fucking one who responds I need to get my travel agent involved in my sex life. NPNC. And here come the blank profiles with no pic or details. Lack of conversation. Again, it gets heavy and tiring lifting 100% of the weight of interaction to only get 5-word answers. Makes me feel like Susan Powter wanting to yell "stop the insanity!"
  19. I love the direction this is taking, you really are capturing the raw revenge aspects of Bret's barracks mates getting their comeuppance. I'm whet with anticipation for where this leads. Bravo!
  20. Even if you were bi or straight, would you prefer seeing fucking done by hard cocks or flaccid ones? 🤣🤣
  21. Probably around 18 once I was away at school. It was the early 80's ('83) and I took the subway ride up to 42nd & 8th at night. As a suburban kid, this was about as scary as I dared. Went into a video booth with a roll of quarters and began pushing the buttons to see what was on the various selections. The booth I was in brought up some man-to-man porn. Despite having had early experiences, I found it at the time a bit off-putting. It was one of these things where it included 70's porn groove as the soundtrack, but otherwise not memorable.
  22. It's about over 50% for me. If a profile says "Condoms Only" or "Safe Only" or the dreaded "Show me your most recent STI Panel", I'll pass them by or they'll get a 'No thanks' from me. My profile is pretty straightforward about 'No Condoms' (or 'Bareback only', but people will still insist despite that. Probably most of y'all get responses that just clearly never read your profile and only gooned at your pics or send a low-effort response?
  23. A less sober moment with someone I was out with in the early/mid-80s. For anyone that remembers Danceteria in NY, one of the girls in the group started something and we took it to a dimly lit stairwell where things progressed from there. Was good fun but wasn't any sort of romantic thing, just 2 preppy kids who were horny and found an out of the way spot. I'm sure lots of things happened in those stairwells long ago.
  24. Well you both described my regimen pretty well. Enlarged BPH here, negative PSAs every year, started with Rapaflo (silodosin) and then somehow was changed over to Flowmax as it had fewer side effects. Doctor added tadalafil 5mg daily which has an off-label indication for prostate treatment, and it had some very beneficial side effects. 😀 Especially against other medications (SSRIs, SNRIs, etc.). But both are more treatments than 'cure' (welcome to Big Pharma and US medical practice, why cure something when you can make it an ongoing revenue stream). Speaking of stream, that's been fine but now you have me considering two things: One is the Alfuzosin, the other is the Urolift procedure. @PozBearWI, can you share the adverse effects of Tamsulosin that Alfuzosin doesn't have?
  25. Funny you mention this. I recently updated my A4A profile, and I got someone (no pic, so that's already sus), and his responses didn't match what I asked. Plus his profile was rather too "eHarmony" for my tastes, which always sets my intuition on alert. It never got as far as a phone number or beyond kick-off chatting because my profile clearly states a "No Pic/Empty Profile = No chat". When a profile says "Photos are the key to start chatting" and has no photos, then when you challenge him about that in a clever way, he responds with "Great, what are you looking for here?" that's my cue for my block game.
