stopped at Rite aid.  my Medicare advantage covers Gardasil for no cost.  got the first (of 3) shots.  asked about Japanese encephalitis  - specialty vaccine, they can't get it.   forgot to ask about monkey pox. 

In general I believe what does not kill you makes you stronger.  exercising your immune system is good for you.
By my age I have been repeatedly exposed.  the chance of a new exposure that causes an issue is very low.  the healthcare system does not recommend the vaccine for me.  I will go with the recommendations of the experts.

You are being very very paranoid.  That activity is very very safe.

Im pretty vaccine positive... so maybe I will add HPV to the list.  if I can get it for free.....
In addition to occasional deep anal probing and semen injection...  I get regular colonoscopy .  they have removed polyps in the past, but none the last 2 times.

I guess we are way off topic... in  my career I have played host to Crabs in 2005 and came home from Thailand with chlamydia.   While using Doxy in thailand and Philippines my mouth and ass played host multiple times to a 20 year who we diagnosed and got treated for Gonorrhea .  I came home clean of that infection.
I am transitioning from top to bottom due to age.  I am just entering my bottom whore stage.
I live in middle of Pennsytucky, pretty backward here.
Shingrix is complete for me, recommended at 60.  Gardasil seems a waste.  I am sure I have HPV, and it is pointless to inject it when you have it.
I was th9inking about monkeypox and vaccine for Japanese encephalitis.  and of course the latest covid, flu before the winter sets in. 

How is it possible that there are so many beautiful guys in Thailand. I don't have enough time in the day or energy to see them.
If you have not been to Thailand before, get off your ass and get on a plane to visit. You can't go a day without finding someone that will blow your mind!

I understand.   when I spoke to my (central PA)  doctor about it, he never heard of it, but after he read about it, he prescribed it (at double the dose I requested) for me.  it is new, still in confirmatory testing in larger scale populations.  can also be used as PeP.
I understand and appreciate the concerns over excessive use of antibiotics and generally avoid them.  however, in this case I will use them.  I cannot think my vacation use (prep on demand both HIV and Bacterial) to protect myself and my partners will change the fate of the world.  especially since doxycycline is commonly used long-term for teenage acne all over USA (and maybe elsewhere).  And (perhaps) routinely fed to chickens....   similiar TO my cognizant dissonance over the CO2 used in my flights to Thailand will increase global warming...
after years of condoms... my old age rebellion... raw is law 💩 (sorry, I love the discussion more than the sex  🤐) 
... and finally [prep in usa is cheap for those who cannot get it free) 
 

The last time I went to the “gay” area near the toilet block about 6 months ago it was still a rather pleasant place to spend a couple of hours, but compared with former times the “gayness” was very much diluted. In between the predominately groups of older farang men was a few str couples and even the occasional single lady.  I’ve nothing against the latter but I’m bemoaning the decline of what was an asset for the gay community and  tourists like me. The only Asian boy was the occasional one sat with presumably his daddy looking bored.  In former days a group of boys used to play volley ball by the waters edge displaying their lovely brown bodies wearing brief speedos. 

I'm not talking about meeting on Grindr or the apps 
I want to know if any of you have luck meeting guys for sex paid or otherwise in shopping centres, retail stores ,bellboys ,security guards , drivers , etc etc for sex in Thailand!
This is the reason I used to take cards with my Line /WhatsApp number printed to hand out .
The only thing is you  have to be confident enough to approach and make small talk with guys you like .
In Philippines it worked 85% of the time picking up straight guys ready for paid sex , I got pounded by a gym pt in Cebu ,he was married and had 3 sons and pounded my daddy ass for 2,000 pesos ,I loved it as he made a loud moan as he blew his straight load deep into my asshole .
Then the 

Mutual, and simultaneous, orgasms are better!

mutual respect is priceless

What other life threatening sex diseases are you talking about other than Aids 
You should be vaccinated already against Hep B
, I think a lot of you want to live in the past and many of you have less than 10 years of life left yet worry about Syphillis
🙄if your in your late 70's enjoy life is all I can say ,you can go anytime 

I liked the slogan and cartoon on T-shirts that were commonly seen on Silom and other Bangkok street vendors 20 and more years ago -
AIDS KILLS
Don't Be Silly
Get That Condom On Your Willy

I always have a supply of condoms and lube when I go in for a massage (just in case), just my preference to not have oil on the condom when being fucked or doing the fucking. Plus I do like to clean the oil off our bodies after the massage so that some oral action takes place without the taste of oil before the full on fun starts. 

There is also bacterial prep (Doxycycline )which protects against Syphilis , Gonorrhea , chlamydia.. (not herpes)    and... oil takes a good bit of activity to degrade a condom  likely wont happen in the 5 minute fuck you get during a massage.,...

Had 3 men sleep with me last night after the bar.  one wsa for pay.  it was like a girls night sleep over.....   for breakfast got two loads in my butt ~ 630 am

paid the 20 yro pool boy 100 pesos to wash my bike with no shirt.   he was very happy.

Filipino cock - please note I asked him to let his armpit and crotch hair grow, I like hair on my men.

sorry, no, but there are a few on the plaza area....

I met a straight retired USA military man wintering in the holiday  inn (el poblado) who also rented (24/7) a love motel room near Plaza Botero (for a very low amount).  everyday he a gang of sexpatriots hung out on the plaza fucking several street whores everyday.  The goal was to fuck every decent "bitch" on the plaza.  and if you have been there there are hundreds.   he said long term rental of the motel was cheap.  he kept his lube and condoms there and did not bring the girls back to the holiday inn. 

The money isn't an issue with me either, it's still a lot less than home. I was just surprised at the difference. What I really liked in Colombia was the quality of the men compared to Canada. The guys in Colombia made a genuine effort to make sure I enjoyed myself compared to the indifference of a lot of the $300 CAD escorts at home. One guy was older and heavier than in his photo, but he was fun to be with and I really enjoyed myself so it was a good lesson for me.

I am doing 5 weeks Colombia tour and while I had paid sex, I decided to visit as much saunas as possible. Short recap:
Pereira Salamander. Small, I visited 3 times, 2 times had oralsex with twink. Not busy but seemed action focused. Central location.
Manizales Alma Viva - few visitors, it has a jacuzzi in the basement. I was soaking there with super handsome guy (could be sent to Dolce Gabana ad campaign). It seemed he was not looking or I was shy. Had luck with one moreno guy in the steam room. Alma is in Zona Rosa, the entrace is disguised - no logo, you have to take stairs next to the casino, then you arrive in a snack shop and the owner wants to sell you snacks. But you insist „sauna“ and then the secret door is opened.
Manizales Pilatos - city center located ugliest so far (combined with sex video shop). However I saw probably the hottest guy. He was like Belami futball player, fit, handsome. He was running around (or they were running with him) with one super obese daddy and another 60+ dude. I could not figure out whats going on - friends, fetish, escort?  I could not approach him and soon the trio was gone. One of the learning was, less analyses, more initiative and action is required. This sauna is really sex focused, nothing else to enjoy.
Second visit - no futball player (I was ready to fight😀), but one ca 35-40 y muscled or ripped dude with sexy face. He was radiating so much sex appeal and I made out with him a bit, but for some reasons stopped. Probably my loss!
Cali Phiscus - cheap and central, lots of guys. New gringo faces are welcomed. I visited three times, all times had oral or anal sex, including very handsome fit hispanic twink. Two times guys offered weed, which was strong and maybe not so good idea in sauna. I was hallucinating, but never lost my mind (or locker key). Had sex with one young fucker on weed, which was great.
I saw incredibly beatiful young muscle guy, he smoked also weed and then looked closest available partner for him. 
As one forum member said, it has a cute resident escort and handsome caretaker, both from Venezuela. 
CaliClub - a party sauna with DJ and excellent facilities. Guys in phiscus said „sundays it is full of young and hot guys“. Midweek it had few guests, it is more expensive and not so central. Phiscus is best on fridays and saturdays (open until 4am, but guests leave 3am) and I would try caliclub on sunday (open until 10 pm only).
The sauna experience depends a) your hotness, b) supply and demand, c) your initiative and action, d) communication. A is givven by the genes, but b-d can do miracles.
I found saunas are good place to enjoy and learn more about the scene, especially if you dont have time pressure. Slurp cold beers, chat and check out the guys. No complaints about the staff in the saunas, friendly and helpfull. 
I was also in Bogota Dark Club, which is naked cruising club. Was fun, lots of people on Friday and Sarurday. Dark Club had younger crowd then saunas and the guys were not shy. But even in saunas, I noted that there is a lack of older guys. In Germany, saunas attract fair share of older dudes who drink beer and socialize. Not so much in Colombia.

I was in Medellin and Bogota, (not really a beach person).   many many men.

Let's all just face the fact that THIS is our govt these days,  corrupt and power hungry.  And the more pressure put on the corrupt individuals, the more arrogant and vengeful they become....   So, we can only hope that todays youth is tomorrows saviors and can CORRECT all this shit,  for THEIR sakes.    They see clearly whats happening, and dont seem to want to bury their heads or turn their backs like the previous generation has done.   If current Laws dont work to the benefit of American citizens, and hold corrupt ELECTED/APPOINTED  govt officials accountable , THEN the laws MUST be changed to serve our changing country.    These perps LAUGH at the people that put them in office.    IF noone is above the LAW, then neither are Supreme Court Judges...    Isnt it just Common Sense ?
