Wow, that's a lot of injuries too. Do people really not listen when they say keep your seatbelt buckled when you are in your seat?

I think I'd steal a line and complain about the wallpaper.

Hey guys.
Just thought share a brief report on my recent trip.
Bars
I went to 2 bars during my weekend trip; Frolic & ChinChin. It was pretty packed on Friday night in both bars, celebrating the start of Pride month.
On Friday night, I was at Frolic first, before going to ChinChin later that night. Frolic had 2 gogo boys dancing as opening for the drag show. The crowd was kind of a mixed bag in terms of age and local vs foreigner. People tend to stick to their own click at first, until the alcohol and whatever they were taking in from the balloons kicked in. Frolic also has an entrance fee for Saturday night (around 100k VND, I think), which does not include drinks.
I only went to ChinChin on Friday night, and it was pretty late by then but the crowd was still pretty big. The vibe I get from ChinChin is that it's more for the "bougie" crowd. The bar's set up gives off a more upscale feel, and the guests actually dressed up decently. Again, people tend to stick with their own crowd, and there are more locals here with maybe the odd few foreigners. But the guys were, IMHO, hotter than the those in the Frolic crowd 😅.
Sauna
I only went to one sauna, Nadam. It was a Saturday evening (around 5pm) and there was pretty big crowd, with varying ages. Though, I seem to be the only non-oriental looking guest from what I can see. A lot of guys with great bodies there. The crowd tend to be more reserved, with a few guys giving a grope if they're interested, to see if you are too. There is a pretty well equipped gym, and the layout of the sauna provides for different areas (multiple lounging areas, saunas (including steam room, hot & cold jacuzzi) are on the ground floor, with the mazes on the first and secord floor. The entry fee was less than 100k VND if I'm not mistaken. Saunas are not really my thing but if you enjoy it and are into oriental asians, this would be a good place for you.
Online MBs
I received several offers on the apps (Grindr and HeeSay), ranging from 500k VND to 2 mil VND depending on what you want. There are surprisingly more gym fit MBs than the twinkier guys.
My experience hiring one of the guys was, unfortunately, not that great. The guy looked masculine with a gym fit body in the pics, but in person he was more effeminate. When I showered, he went ahead and helped himself to the snacks and drinks I had in my room...without asking me. I didn't realise it until after he left. The service itself was rather mediocre, so all in all, it wasn't really a good experience.
But I am eagre to come back and explore a bit more of the HCM scene. I met several amazing local guys over coffee and some of the expats I met at the bars. Looking forward to my next trip.
 

Woah! They really did go with "The One" like one of the guys told me last time. Looking forward for my next visit in BKK.
Darn, my visit this year was a bit lackluster without seeing the Tawan nightly shows with big beefy guys grinding on the stage💪🏻💪🏻🤤🤤. 
Hope everything goes smoothly with their much awaited opening.

Talked with manager who was standing across from bar. Says he hopes to get OK to open soon. Also talked with few guys outside 7-Eleven who said maybe few days. 

I've followed them on twitter for my eventual trip to Manila. They seem legitimate but I don't really know. They've posted some pictures of hot guys so I hope they are...

It seems perfectly reasonable to me to have someone who can help the actors walkthrough and negotiate a scene. I imagine all the male posters here have never had the experience of being groped or raped, but lots of women have. Negotiating and designing the scene upfront prevents any misunderstandings or male actors taking liberties in the name of 'art'.
And I imagine it does help limit liability and future problems.

There are viewpoints that some of us feel are disagreeable enough that we wouldn't wish to give our money to those who espouse them.
The guides are good. I've used and recommended them in the past. I just couldn't give the company money now.
If you don't care who gets your money, then you do you.

>>Sara is the intimacy director and consent consultant for LA Opera.<<
Sara Widzer got a credit. Have you been to the movies lately. If you were in a room where making the movie was discussed you get a credit these days.
It seems ridiculous to me, but then it isn't my industry and I don't know what having a credit really does for you. I do recall reading about tech companies some time ago offering people bigger titles if they'd take less pay. Some people took them up on it, since it would help with their next job.

Yes @Menaughty, Escortbuk has been discussed here on other forms.  Be aware that the prices are well above the going market rate for Colombia.  However, they market themselves as a premium service provider (zero hassles) and all of their escorts speak English if that is a important factor for you. When you request a "date" with one of their escorts, you will be provided with full details, including a face photo. Obviously targeted at the growing tourist market, their escorts will show up at the agreed time and know exactly what they are there to do.
If you are willing to pay for a no-hassle professional service, then Escortbuk is absolutely a good option.

Yes! You've never noticed it before.
However, it's nothing new in film and theater productions. Don't you live in Los Angeles? ☺️
I believe it's the performers themselves who originally requested this type of assistance when rehearsing scenes that require physical intimacy (and, yes, sexual intimacy) with other performers.
It's definitely not taught in traditional theater and music departments. It's more psychology than directing or singing.

Yes, those Japanese women making impossible demands of men like being treated like equal human beings whose sole purpose isn't to fluff the male ego. What Japanese man could manage that?
It has been a few decades since I lived there, but I can't imagine the rampant misogyny has changed that much. Compare Korea's 4b movement and its similar origins. The Korean government has spent billions trying to improve its birthrate with no success. I guess the male legislators can't understand that no matter how much glitter they sprinkle on the cage, women don't want to go back in.

Motorcycles are so dangerous. One of the few things my father, a physician who worked at times in the emergency room, asked of me was to never ride a motorcycle. He saw too many young men die on them.
