So obviously they are able to "perform" having sex with men. But do they on the whole, ever seek men out when they aren't being payed for it? Andrew Justice used to say he was bisexual. We once had an interrupted weekend. We were together one or two nights-he had something to do the next night-and then we had another one or two nights. But while we were apart he had sex with some porn guy (a twinkish guy I think) And of course he at one point had a boyfriend (Sean Xavier) for several years. Sean was his first and so far only boyfriend. But I think that pretty much proves Andrew was bi. I get a different vibe from your Bel Ami friends. But maybe I'm wrong. Gman

This is not like a frat house. We all basically stay in our rooms with the doors shut unless we run across each other going to/from the kitchen, laundry room, or bathroom. Gman

Two of three of the reviews for Elliott say his pictures aren't accurate. Gman

Most of my Friday nights are alone. Gman

There's one that advertises in Seattle. It's called Rain City Jacks. I thought vaguely about going once or twice, but I decided against it. Gman

Thank you for all the information. It was really helpful although my question was more about whether all these escorts were really into being spanked, or did they for some reason list it and not mean it. Gman

So are any of these guys actually gay or even strongly bisexual? And if the answer is, "These guys are just sexual," I take that as a no. Gman

Forgive my ignorance, but who or what is Lipe? Gman

How many of you have ever spanked-and I'm not talking about a few playful swats while topping someone-an escort during a meeting or been spanked by one? Gman

Believe me they are both really huge. And while obviously not a complete measure of society, but as an example, Walmart started putting up Christmas items (as well as Thanksgiving stuff) right after Halloween. Thanksgiving isn't until next Thursday with Christmas over a month away, and my local Walmart has had its Christmas decorations and holiday item section up for weeks. Santa even made an appearance there two weeks ago. Gman

Au contraire, @mike carey, you can do Thanksgiving in Australia if you don't mind a little traveling. . Gman Why One Australian Island Celebrates Thanksgiving There's pumpkin pie, but also multiple banana dishes. By Anne Ewbank NOVEMBER 21, 2018 Norfolk Island is tiny, both in size and population. An Australian territory hundreds of miles from the mainland, it's home to fewer than 2,000 inhabitants. It has sparkling blue waters, unique flora (the famed Norfolk pine is displayed on their flag), and a stranger-than-fiction origin story: The island was populated by the descendants of mutineers from the British ship HMS Bounty. The British mutineers and several captive Tahitians had fled to nearby Pitcairn Island in 1790, and by 1856, their descendants moved to the larger Norfolk Island. The islanders have long history of cultural melange, with many speaking a combination of Tahitian and 18th-century English, called Norfuk. They also celebrate unique holidays, such as Bounty Day, and, strangely enough, an American-inspired Thanksgiving. While various harvest festivals and days of thanks fill fall calendars around the world, Norfolk Island's Thanksgiving is actually based on the American tradition. Norfolk Island has always been a stop for seafarers, from the island's first Polynesian inhabitants to 19th-century American whalers. In 1887, one Norfolk Island resident, Isaac Robinson, even became the American consul, making him a diplomatic representative of the United States. One year, the story goes, Robinson wanted to celebrate Thanksgiving. He observed the holiday by decorating the pews of the All Saints Church with palm leaves and lemons. When Robinson died at sea, the islanders kept up the practice, which was shored up by American sailors in later decades. These days, the tradition continues much in the same vein, although Norfolk Island celebrates on the last Wednesday of the month rather than on a Thursday. The island's churches hold Thanksgiving services (the day is a public holiday). At All Saints Church, the pews are decorated with tall stalks of corn. Norfolk and church attendees place fresh fruit and vegetables along the aisles, a testament to the local practice of almost complete agricultural self-sufficiency. Despite the harvest symbolism, though, November is springtime on Norfolk Island. After the service, all the bounty is loaded onto tables and sold as a church fundraiser. Then, it's time for feasting, whether with family or the community. The TASTE Norfolk Island Food Festival takes place annually during the week of Thanksgiving, and includes the holiday's unique feast on the program. The Thanksgiving meal is a fusion of traditional Thanksgiving foods and Norfolk Island cuisine. Turkey is generally not on the menu, but cornbread is. There's pumpkin pie, but also multiple banana dishes. As Tom Lloyd, one Norfolk Islander, told NPR, there's banana pilaf, "green bananas cooked in cream, and dried bananas." Past celebrations have included a TASTE Norfolk Island banquet of "roast meats, traditional Tahitian fish salad, corn, coconut bread, and salads." This year, festival guests will attend Thanksgiving Day church services before going to a local home for a feast

Christmas is a very big deal here in the USA. If it's even bigger in Canada--WOWEEE!! Gman

I'm not sure if you are serious or not, Mike. I could go on and on about it. But let me cut to the chase and have Wikipedia do it. The quick answer is that the USA's major secular holiday. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksgiving_(United_States) The Canadian Thanksgiving is a bit different. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksgiving_(Canada) Gman

I think I tasted non-sweetened almond milk once-never again if I can help it. I think Hershey's has some milk components in it. So I don't know how that plays with being dairy free. Gman

Do you mind if ask whether your therapist is gay? If yes or no, did you purposely pick her for her sexuality-whatever it is-and for her gender, or were you happy getting any sexuality and any gender? My last 4 or 5 therapists (one wasn't a therapist but my internist) have been gay males. I chose gay males because I thought they might understand my feelings better. At least 4 them have been very handsome. I, not being handsome at all, have thought it might have been easier for them to be gay because they've always been desirable. It's another kettle of fish trying to accustom oneself to being gay knowing not a lot of people are going to be attracted to you-knowing that if you were straight -women sometimes aren't as focused on looks. But years ago I had an acquaintance with a different take on things. He purposely chose women as therapists. I'm not sure whether they were gay or not. But he chose them so he wouldn't have the danger of feeling any attraction to them. Gman

It's French meaning sadness-ultimately from the Latin word "tristis" meaning sad. The Spanish word for sad is "triste"which is also derived from the Latin word Gman

There are some porn guys who never really plan to escort like Colby Keller (sigh). But some use it the opposite way of what you describe. They seem to like escorting and use their porn career to increase their demand and their fees. Look at the retired Andrew Justice. He was escorting even while he continued to do porn. He's just one example. Rafael Alencar is another. He was escorting even when his porn career was hot. Gman

It doesn't matter as I have no money to hire. Plus he's a bit on the twinkish side for me even if I had money. Gman

I know where you are coming from. Sometimes I feel an escort's hair is just too "fabulous" for me to feel comfortable with him. Gman

Please don't be a Cool Whip hater until you've tried the recipe with it. I've made it that way for years. And it's delicious. Even my sister-in-law complimented me on how good the pie was a few years back. Gman

I'll bite -sorry it's such a late response but I didn't see the post until someone just made a response to this thread. I will have to refute your claim about gay escorts. For the most part I always hired either gay or bisexual escorts (as much as you can tell by their self-declarations as we know even guys who say they are straight may actually be gay/bisexual or guys advertising as gay/bisexual may actually be straight (although in this case it seems to me more likely a scam is going on)). I think it must be selection bias in the type of gay/bisexual escorts you have picked because I'm an old (well middle-aged although I'll admit that I don't know anyone who is twice my age at 116) bald, fat guy. I'd say at least 80% (possibly more) of the gay/bisexual escorts I met with lived up to their promise. Now not every encounter was excellent but they were in most cases at the very least satisfactory. And these sessions included oral, Fr kissing, and a lot of body contact. And at least 90% of the time, I topped them. And while it probably was my bad luck-but the one guy I definitely remember being straight-he never explicitly stated on his Rentboy ad. He had checked everything on the "what he was into section" which seemed to imply that he was gay. I unfortunately hired him for a weekend. When we met he kept talking about a woman friend of his who had given him a ride to the airport. The subject came up, and he said he saw women too. I asked which he liked better. And he said women. He didn't like kissing when it was clearly listed on his ad. I asked him why it was listed. He said someone told him to check all alternatives to increase his client rate. Strangely enough he did ask me if I wanted to top him. But I had the feeling he hadn't really bottomed before. And I was so disgusted at being with a straight guy for a weekend-plus I am not a good top with inexperienced guys who can't relax their sphincter-so I didn't even attempt it. Gman

I've always found that looking at how little money I have in my bank account is an incredible libido lowerer. Gman
