Thanks. I’ll check him out as well. And I keep checking every day or two for Garik’s return! Obsessed? Slightly!

Thank you. I’m hoping that’s the case and that I can meet up with him again sometime soon. In the meantime, I’ll give another one of the other fellas a go.

I’m heading to San Francisco after a month away and planning a relaxing/stimulating massage. I’ve taken a covid break but ready to try something with masks of course. I had two wonderful times with Garik (linked above) but see his ad is down. Anyone privy to any info or happen to have his contact info? Please PM if that’s better for you. I’m also considering SFGoodBoy or Androphilic (both linked above as well) but Garik is my first choice since I know we connect well. Thank You!

Before I went plant based, I dabbled in moderation in the sense that I had moderate diabetes and heart disease - only one stent compared to my old roommate who had a triple bypass that same month! But yeah, moderation is key to many things in life. Just not everything (slavery, misogyny and my fave - conversion therapy!)

The point I was trying to make was that we are the only creatures who don’t live in harmony with nature - our huge factory farms supported by even larger soy and corn farms to feed all the animals (not humans) is not the same as raising a goat to feed your village. The way people have lived throughout time (and still do in remote parts of the world) is not how we do it today. And we have a huge “healthcare” system banking on that fact, of course. When someone shows up at my cabin with a freshly caught fish or quail, I’ll enjoy it with them and may even cook it for us. I’ve never claimed to be vegan or vegetarian. But I’ve been plant based for more than a decade.

How many of us have used our own hands to kill our main course? I never have. Not talking about using a gun someone else manufactured to shoot a duck out of the air. But actually hunted down, slaughtered, cleaned and cooked a wild boar, swordfish or pigeon? As the most intelligent (and dexterous) species on the planet, we’re the only creatures to actually wreak havoc on the balance of nature.

As you’re starting out, eat A LOT of food. Pack your plate with veggies, beans, grains, greens, fruits, seeds, nuts and plenty of spices. If you’re replacing a standard pork chop + starch + veg dinner, you’ll need a load of all the foods I listed to feel satisfied - and get the calories you need. The biggest mistake you can make is not eating enough. Mangia.

So you already learned about the diet’s effect on girth, longevity (as in time, not length) and recurrence on nightly erections! Anecdotally, I stopped waking up with woody somewhere in my mid 30s. After going plant based years later, they came back with a vengeance and are still happening a few times a week now. On another note, if you’re at the opposite end of the spectrum and suffering ED for no apparent reason, get on some plan to manage your arteriosclerosis. If arteries are clogging down there, the same thing is happening in the heart and brain.

I’m in nearly the same place as Lchnsf. I went “total plant based” when I saw Forks Over Knives in the theater. So I guess about 10 years ago. Anyways, I don’t “miss” the meat and dairy I grew up on. Still I’d love to know the secret to homemade vegan butter!! I’m a healthier weight than any of my friends and nearly all coworkers. No meds. I never get sick (knocking wood) and I recover from half marathons and weight lifting sessions so fast. None of this would matter if I felt like I was missing out on something - shrimp scampi, beef tenderloin, chicken McNuggets, etc. I don’t wish I “could” have something like that and if I did, I would eat it! Like others said, I take B12 a couple times a week and my levels are good. The only reason meateaters don’t need to supplement is because the cows are given B12 shots and that winds up in their tissues that wind up on the plate. Similar to fish eat alga and getting omegas from the seaweed. Salmon don’t “make” omegas. They eat it. Anyways watch the old Forks Over Knives on a streaming service. And/or stream The Gamechangers for a more updated take on the whole thing. And if you don’t want to, don’t!! I’m not trying to do conversion therapy on anybody.

[quote=" This gear - and nearly all the others on here - would be the ultimate for me. I’ve often asked buddies and hires to indulge my fetish and show up in their tightest stuff. And I try to keep them in it as long as possible to build up the - literal -tension. Sometimes it works, other times they don’t share my enthusiasm.

He caught my eye as well. But I often get excited about hot guys that seem good to be true AND have lots of emojis in their profiles!! I may be overanalyzing but looking for clues.

HBO’s closing of each segment with a drag bit seems in direct conflict with any desire to portray the wide range of gay lifestyles we all live. Even if you loved doing drag, it would still be a tip-off that the producers are not out to portray rural gays in a natural light. Sounds like reality TV being peddled to you as a “documentary”.

Who are these studs? Is this from a video? I’m overwhelmed!

Wowee. I suppose there’s no way to know who, where or anything else about this duo?!?

We haven't gone there (not my thing). But he's been eager to help explore other (fairly vanilla) things I've wanted to try.
