  1. Chuck, We did get the questions and we did respond. However, you have AOL and none of our e-mail makes it through to their accounts as they have said that the url is banned. We are working on getting that fixed but have put in no less than 40 calls to them with the response, "your url is not on the banned list." However, it is. To test, send an e-mail to yourself from AOL with the url www.maleescortreview.com in it. You will get a 554 error. This is a banned URL error. No one at AOL seems to know anything other than to create a new ticket and wait 48 hours. We have done this 20 times so far. We will keep trying.
  2. I will be in Brazil on my next trip for about 2 months. I have been to Sao Paulo and Rio many times and want to do so again on this trip. However, I would really like to also visit: Fortaleza Curitiba Brasilia Recife Natal Aracaju Florianopolis Porto Alegre I would like to spend 3 or 4 days in each city to get the lay of the land. I would appreciate any suggestions on accommodations, saunas, bars, etc. I have not decided how I will get from one city to the next. In the past I hired a driver to take me back and forth from Rio to Sao Paulo. I prefer travel by car or train. However, I know I will have to fly many places, as the distance may be too great. Any suggestions, advice or recommendations would be most greatly appreciated. I got my tickets today so I am very excited about another trip to Brazil! Oz . . .

  3. I had the pleasure of being in the same room with her many years ago. I did not get to meet her or tell her how much her family changed the direction of America but they did. She had a presence that was powerful. She will be missed!
  4. Thanks guys. I appreciate the information very much. Fire: I found one apartment on Sublet that I liked very much. You have to be a paid member of that site to get contact information. I don't mind doing this. However, I have joined a few of these sites and the information is not always up to date. Do you know if these guys remove their listings when it is no longer available?
  5. I will be going to Moscow in May for about a week. What should I prepare for? Does anyone know of any great bars? club? resturants? I have never made a journey to Russia before and I am very excited about it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
  6. I think this guy is so hot. Check out all his photos at: http://www.mostbeautifulman.com/ http://www.mostbeautifulman.com/actors/die...mages/pic01.jpg
  7. Thanks. We also just added the abilty to search through the entire gallery of escorts quickly by clicking the next button at the bottom of the Newest Photos page. Hope you enjoy even more!
  8. I love the Land of Smiles. I find the following links helpful when planning a trip. 1. www.gaythailand.com - great source for up to date info in Thailand venues. 2. www.gaybutton.com - Some great indepth articles on living in Thailand. 3. www.dreadedned.com - This site has been around for a while and is an excellent tool. 4. www.dragoncastle.com 5. www.thaiguy.net - done by the BBB group in Bangkok but has some nice profiles for hooking up. 6. www.gaydar.co.uk - great place to find hookups. 7. www.cruisingforsex.com - Message Board on Thailand is informative.
  9. Date 2-5 February 2006. http://www.gaypatong.com/gaypatong/phuketgayfestival/ Anyone going to be there?
  10. Lek's Bar has always been one of my favorites in Pattaya. It has a variety of guys in it and they are always very attractive. I was there a few nights ago and the place was dead. There were only around 10 guys there. I have heard rumors that the place is loosing many of its investors. I hope the bar is able to overcome this as it is one of the better places in Pattaya.
  11. Normally, I stay at a hotel when I visit Rio. I want to stay a bit longer on the next trip but I can't seem to find a place for rent for a few months. I have posted at GayTravelBrazil and no luck there either. Does anyone know of a good place to find apartments?
  12. LOL. Yes, sir. You do have a one track mind! So, I guess that I'll have to find this guy for you, snap a photo and get you to fly me to Montreal to show you? I was having breakfast today with a group of Montreal guys who were talking about all our Adonis and Taboo boys. It was great fun and I had a good breakfast. Made me want to take a quick trip to Montreal before I head off to Latin America. You game?
  13. Sunee Plaza has been going through many changes of recent. The most noticeable change is the new bar called Corner Bar. It is located directly across from Come In Bar. Corner Bar is owned by an American. He is very nice and the place was done with great detail. They have all over 18 staff and there is some good eye candy there as well. The Minou Bar at the end of that same Soi has been widened as the two bars at the end merged and they were made into one larger bar. Each night the guys there are wearing sexy red shirts and very friendly. Come In Bar was always my favorite in this part of town and they have replaced their chairs and are making improvements in other areas. The new pool table has been a nice treat for those of us that love a good pool game. I have heard the other corner bar, the one across from Euro, is for sale. I don't know the going price but it is the best location in Sunee. Memories is always a great deal of fun. The guys that run it are enjoyable to talk to and keep the place interesting. Crazy Dragon, the former XXX or Crazy Pub, did an amazing renovation and it really does add to the area. The bar is now cleaned up and the sex shows are a thing of the past. The bar has great tables for table dances and the guys wear loose boxers so customers are able to look into the mirrored table to see what is being offered. Kaos closed. Then opened. Then closes. Then opened. It is up and down. The bar has been busy with new boys and many farangs during high season. Forest Bar at the top of Sunee closed last week. I have not heard what it will become but the new owners started to work on the remodeling immediately. I have heard a few things about it but nothing yet confirmed. The new sleaze bar is O-Zone. They have a fun crowd of boys that are touchy and willing to have fun without leaving the bar. I am sure that more will come to mind but just wanted to share some of the changes in this area for those of you who have visited before. I will work on a report on Boyztown this week as well if anyone is interested.
  14. Thank you very much for the great report. You really painted a detailed picture in my mind. My first memory of New Orleans was Mardis Gras when I was about 5 or 6 years old. Yes, it has been a while. I remember walking down Bourbon Street holding my father's hand. The streets were busy with people and the music flowed from the clubs. One door opened and my eyes caught a glimpse of a sex show on stage. I think that was the first time (and perhaps one of the last haha) that I watched a man fuck a woman. Yes, I was a bit young but back then the city was even more decadent that in recent years. Skip forward 11 years and I was part of the parade with thousands of people yelling and screaming. The sounds are just as vivid in my mind. The ladies were all showing their breasts to us to get some necklaces. I thought that was cool but did not understand why the guys weren't showing me their cocks. Skip forward another 10 years and my adult years in New Orleans were spent in nice restaurants and looking at the amazing architecture that has been built in this amazing city. While the memories of the past are still present, I also look forward to the memories of the future. I can't want for the city to be rebuilt and my first visit to occur. I miss the city and hope that it will overcome the horrors of the past year. Oz ---Life is here, life is now. Life is soooo short... and sex is just too delicious!

  15. At the very top banner you will see a link called Newest Photos It will showcase the last images that escorts upload to their profile on a page where you can see the latest eye candy fast. Hopefully, this will also encourge escorts to post new images often and to visit the site regularly. Present photos may not be in the latest because we have not stored the time of previous approved photos before Jan. 24, 2006. But now onwards when any photo approved it will come in this list. We hope that you enjoy this new area. It was created as a request from a user and we are working hard to make this a community site where all have input. Keep the suggestions coming guys! Thanks! Oz
  16. >Sorry Rico, false alarm ... better check the meltdown meters >elsewhere Holy Shit. A Meltdown? OMG. Why didn't someone tell me? Mistakes happen. I make them all the time. As they say shit happens. Yesterday, I was riding my motorcycle down a street that I knew was one way. However, I was only 20 feet from the other end where I parked. I thought it was no big deal. Well, needless to say, shit happens when you least expect it. All of the sudden I was pulled over by a policeman. I had to pay a fine. It took hours to sort out. In the heat of things I thought that was a meltdown. After I got back to my place, I had a glass of wine and knew that it was not even a heat stroke. Shit happens to the best of us.
  17. The programmers are having a hard time integrating DCForum with the site. It is not as easy as other software programs would have been. It has taken about 50% of their time for the site build which is a great loss. We choose this as we thought it would be easier for members familiar with the software and it has threaded views. I am beginning to think it was a mistake and to try another program totally.
  18. I think a lot has to do with the version and the system. I use Mac OS with all the newest versions. I cannot get Firefox to work with many sites as it seems to store cookies in an odd way. I have no problem with other browsers on Mac exp. Safari. I also use Firefox on my Toshiba. It works fine as well but I have to log in and out 2 times before it recognized me.

  21. Apparently, there was an error in the Advanced Search feature that caused an indefinite loop. The programmers have fixed this and the site freeze issue should not reappear. We do apologize for the inconvenience. If you ever have any issues, please let us know and we will work on fixing the problem. Thanks! Oz ---Life is here, life is now.

    Vietnam??

    From what I have heard the gay scene in Vietnam is not what it is in Thailand. But, not many places are. I have a few friends that live in Vietnam and they say that there are several gay bars but it is more underground and not as public as Thailand. I have not found any good websites that give good information on that scene. I know many expats that go there and have a good time but they meet guys in more traditional places. If you find some good sites or any good information, please post it as I would love to know more. I also know many guys from Thailand that are from Laos and that work in the bars in Thailand. They say that Laos is going to be the next Thailand with regards to gogo bars. I had a friend from USA that visited me last year and spend 4 months with me in Thailand. They took a backpack trip around Asia and had a fabulous time. He enjoyed Vietnam and said he met some of the hottest guys there that he had met on his journey.
  24. Sao Paulo is one of my favorite cities. I do love Rio and enjoy the saunas there. Sao Paulo is a bird of a different feather. Sure, everyone likes to go to Rio de Janeiro to sit on the sandy beaches and check out the well tanned beefcake that always seems on display. But, there is much more to the Brazil gay scene than just the Copacabana in Rio! In fact, one of the most intense gay friendly cultures in the world exists in Sao Paulo – following generations of immigration from Europe and smaller South American countries by people who did not fit in back home, and were attracted to the strong, business friendly economy. Because of this, there is a wealth of languages spoken in the city – and you can easily get by in almost any native tongue, even if you don’t speak Portuguese That said, like anywhere, it is a good idea to learn at least a few key phrases in case you end up in an unexpected situation and to show respect for your host country. Sao Paulo was founded in 1554 by Jesuit missionaries who wanted to convert the native population to Catholicism. It became and independent recognized city in 1771 and has kept growing ever since. Most gay travelers who know Sao Paulo come here for the first time because of the legendary International Gay Pride Parade. This festival is beyond anything you may have seen anywhere else in the world. Every June more than 1.5 million gay, lesbian and transgendered travelers descend on Sao Paulo to hold what has become the largest Gay Pride Festival anywhere in the world – making similar events in New York and San Francisco seem like a cruise in the park! The parade starts in front of the Museu de Arte de São Paulo and moves along the Avenida Paulista towards the Praça da República. It covers a distance of a little more than 3 kilometers over more than five hours. It starts at 2 pm, but most people start showing up in the early morning hours to avoid the last minute rush. In addition to the parade, there will be cultural events and musical shows with live bands. The parade itself is hosted and opened by mayor. What’s truly amazing about the Sao Paulo International Gay Pride Parade is that it is so new. The first parade, in 1997, only attracted about 3,000 people. But it has grown exponentially over the years into an enormous carnival like atmosphere. This is a huge change in gay cultural acceptance from the late 1930s when members of the Institute of Criminology used to come to study the “passive pederasts” (as bottoms were then known) and the “real men” (read, “butch tops”) who they had sex with. Today, gay culture is well enshrined in the city, which boasts numerous gay and lesbian film festivals and a tolerance and acceptance of homosexuality that is surprising given the macho culture. One of the most exciting events, Sao Paulo Fashion Week is held twice a year in Bienal de São Paulo. In recent years it has started attracting some of the world’s top models and designers, who party hard amid the gorgeous locals. Be warned that getting around Sao Paulo can be difficult – always allow as much extra time as possible to get to any meetings or rendez-vous. The city was built without a well organized planning system – so traffic jams are common at nearly all hours of the day and night. The city itself is an anomaly for South America – it is huge, pro business and supports a giant, successful economy. There are more than 33,000 industries represented in the city – which boasts a population of more than 10 million people – making it the fourth largest, if least known, city in the world! For decades the largest industry in Sao Paulo has been coffee production. In fact, it was this industry that attracted much of the working migrants from Europe who settled here in the late 19th and 20th centuries, looking for secure jobs at decent wages in a city with a comparatively low cost of living. Sao Paulo is very spread out – covering an area of more than 530 square miles. This means that there is always room for new immigration and the gay and lesbian cultural scene is constantly expanding. Like Rio de Janeiro, one of the most popular activities in Sao Paulo is hitting the dozens of beaches that dot the 622 kilometer coastline. Here you can find any type of beach you want – from large and crowded meat markets, to small intimate shores to simply lay down in the sun and work on getting as brown as the natives. By 2004, there were more than 100 recognized gay bars, restaurants, cultural centers and other rainbow themed establishments. With nearly 300 movie theaters, more than 70 museums and dozens of open parks, you are not apt to ever get bored in Sao Paulo, even if you are not in the mood to look for the 10s of thousands of hot studs that roam the streets at night looking for fun. You will also have a much wider choice of “types” to choose from than you would in other cities around the world. Because Sao Paulo has been such a magnet for immigration from around the world, it has become a true mish mosh of cultural characteristics and looks. In other words, while there are any number of tall, dark traditional looking Brazilian men, there are also blondes, brunettes, blacks and backpacking Euroboys to choose from! The newest and trendiest sector of the gay community is called Frei Caneca where you can find any number of gay friendly theaters, restaurants and cruising bars. Speaking of cruising, if you are looking to hook up with random studs and eager guys, we suggest Park Ibirapuera. Not only are there lots of crusiers in this area, it is also home to tons of male eye candy. From joggers, to roller bladders to cute bike boys to fuel your fantasies! Just be sure to always practice safe sex. The ever changing community and thousands of tourists make practicing safe sex in Sao Paulo mandatory. The largest gay area is downtown around Praça da Republica and Largo do Arouche . This is where you will find the largest concentration of gay bars and clubs, gay friendly shopping and hot guys. This is also where you will find tons of drag shows (frequented by both a gay and straight clientele) and, of course, the ever present hustlers. Like any tourist heavy community in the world, you need to keep aware of your surroundings here to avoid getting ripped off – but it is the place to go when you are in the mood to go down. If you have a fat wallet – and fabulous clothes to go with it – take a stroll down to the Jardins part of town. This is where the richest and chicest gays in Sao Paulo hang out. While there are wonderful gay bars and super exclusive restaurants in the Jardin’s area, it can also be a seriously bitchy culture to hang out in. That said, if you like hanging out with the cool boys and have the clothes and looks to pull it off, you can have a fabulous time! No matter what you are looking for, Sao Paulo is a great destination for any gay traveler. You will be in the heart of a huge cultural center, with a gay friendly native population and tons of different types of studs to choose from. cc MaleEscortReview.com 2006
  25. > Give us >something new and exciting and different. Thank you. We will have many new features and will try to make things different. We are already at work integrating a live Chat and Instant Messaging system into the site. There are other things in the works as well. We will bust our Asses to make this site different and exciting. However, we do need input from others. Any suggestions you have are appreciated. We have full-time programmers that will work on future enhancements in the next few months. What did you have in mind?
