Members Buddy2 Posted June 11, 2020 Members Share Posted June 11, 2020 1 hour ago, RockHardNYC said: But I want to be more clear about where I stand. Negotiations in business are not the same as managing relationships outside of business. Rarely do the makings of good friendships and lovers involve lawyers and written contracts. No one can fix a dysfunctional family member or an addicted loved one by serving him smiles 24/7 or the deal of the century. Human beings are far more complicated than that. I also don't think a business negotiation has much to do with Black Lives Matter, at least as far as this discussion goes. A social contract to end racism will not be a contract negotiated on paper (thinking big picture). Racism will most likely always exist. People have prejudices for all kinds of reasons. Getting institutional racism out of institutions is a good cause, but if it goes the way of Affirmative Action and quota markers, I can see lots of "negotiation" problems arising. Who doesn't love smiles and a peaceful environment? But what if you're dealing with a Trump, who thrives on chaos and destruction? How does one deal with a real TROLL in real life? How do you attack and extinguish evil, if you even believe that evil exists? What if you come face-to-face with a warrior adversary threatening your life? Not every human being smiles by default when confronted. Many people are miserable by default, looking for a fight. We are not pre-programed machines. The human condition is far more complicated than a business negotiation between two business entities. The world is full of angry, bitter, hateful people, and no huge number of smiling faces is going to change that. Except you've just defined the essence of competition. Show me an Olympic Gold winner who isn't happy, please. Or a business brand that put a competing brand out of business. How about an Oscar winner? Happiness means many different things to different people. Let's not get too Pollyanna here. IMO, life is much more enjoyable when there is no war to win, except competitive-minded people need a war to thrive and enjoy life. Our culture and society are currently at war on numerous fronts. People we don't personally know are bringing war to our doorsteps this very minute. If you want to win at war and survive, you better know how to fight. Hitting a warrior with smiles, no matter what type of TROLL the warrior is, may invite death. "Getting even" has been with us since Cain and Abel. Don't like it? Take your beef up with God. Much love to lookin. Are you dismissing Brown v. Board of Education, the Voting Rights Act and the legacy of Abraham Lincoln, Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson?

Completely agree. President Trump has moved so far right, he is unwilling to rename Fort Hood and Fort Benning, venerable locations named after Civil War legends of the Confederacy. Reminds me of when radical conservative Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York was Chaplain of the United States military. Update: The Republican controlled Senate Armed Services Committee disagrees with Trump. The committee favors renaming these forts. Fu*k, good move.

Members RockHardNYC Posted June 12, 2020 Author Members Share Posted June 12, 2020 Looks like ABC is getting WOKE. I've never seen an episode of "Bachelor." I'd rather have a sex-change operation and have it go wrong. But I hear the show is very popular. Network TV is typically behind the eight-ball on social issues (Hello Ellen!), but they just cast their first Black bachelor. It's amazing to me this corporate decision was made SO FAST. Matt James is no Francois Angoston, but hey, if he dropped his towel in the sauna while winking at me, I'd certainly help him pick "it" up. Good for ABC to jump on the BLM bandwagon so quickly. It's not easy for a Black man to hold a rose with such a delicate grip.

Members JKane Posted June 14, 2020 Members Share Posted June 14, 2020 I have less interest in the drama at Daddy's forums every passing week, haven't participated there in years. But I do still check the new reviews and often like some of the articles he curates on his front page--though the constant begging and in-depth write-ups of every medical ailment get tiresome... The hypocrisy is interesting, as his postings there tend to be strongly anti-racist and seemingly supportive of the protests. An example: https://www.daddysreviews.com/cruise/2020-06-12 And since these postings are probably all 90% of people see of him... Jekyl and Hyde.

Yes, if one only reads the escort reviews he comes off as a liberal icon the equal of Ralph Abernathy and George McGovern. I didn't realize he was such an expert of "older queens" who always use the word "child" when talking to young folk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gay guys who desire to build a community on the internet around the subject of male escorting, and take on the time, expense, and personality disorder that the endeavor requires, are NOT a dime a dozen. As many longtime readers know, I crunched the numbers and the math makes little sense, especially now with the death of paid porn. That means, we are left with two rare individuals who both had history with Hooboy (Michael Qseng). I've come to have more respect for Oz, and one reason is: Oz is the only guy who created his own board from scratch, which is not easy to do. In truth, Daddy created his own board, too, but there were serious coattails by default and a very strong breeze from the cemetery's hills at his back. Timing is everything in life. And life is rarely fair. If you don't have enough money to guard and protect an investment, especially during a time when conservatives are at your door with the wolves, there is NO WAY to avoid being paranoid. The situation is what it is. December is soon upon us. Let's see if another "closing" will occur and if the Grinch got a new hairdresser.

Members Latbear4blk Posted November 28, 2020 Members Share Posted November 28, 2020 After several months, I logged in over there earlier this morning. I was expecting them to cancel my profile, but the only thing they have done is deleting my “All Black Lives Matter” avatar. I thought it was going to be harder to cut the habit after all those years of contributing and reading over there. Surprisingly, it has been extremely easy. What I still do everyday is checking the escorts reviews. Soon I will also stop that, as my interest in investing my money in American escorts has vanished and those reviews are worthless to me. nynakedtop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, is right. I guess the place has REALLY changed. I always knew there were a lot of closeted men over there, but I don't ever recall any openly straight guys braving that sandbox. But where do gay-for-pay guys go to discuss their unique life with friendly brethren? Speaking of, women participate now. No doubt transgender, too. The subject of life that emanates from the escorting/porn world is not exclusive to gay men. Is it even possible to control who joins a website, even if it sells itself as a "gentleman's club?" The more the merrier? The more members, the more ka-ching, ka-ching? I realize none of this is nynakedtop's point. It's about loyalty to your own and appreciation. Daddy's character is what it is. Most people are too lazy to stand up to someone's lack of character. It takes energy to care, and a lot of people are tired. nynakedtop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Covid is going to be with us for awhile. Other than masturbating to good porn, I don't know how to have sex with another human being and practice social distancing at the same time, a true oxymoron. I guess if my trick is really tall, I can suck his cock as long as his face is six feet away. Or, I can eat his ass after he promises to breathe forward. Everyone knows the sex addicts and the horn-dogs will never stop having unsafe sex. If AIDS couldn't stop the bug-hunters, I doubt anything could. But I suspect most health-respecting men are not hiring much during Covid, whether you are an escort or a client. The playing field for a lot of life is being reset. Let's see where we're at in a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Suckrates Posted December 18, 2020 Members Share Posted December 18, 2020 It's now a Game of Cat & Mouse.... My most recent 6 month Ban ended on 11/26, and I was allowed back at that OTHER site, keeping in mind this was probably my 100th Ban.... Well low and behold after 2 weeks of posting brief comment in the political forum (since I stopped posting in the Gallery because it was so restrictive), I am Banned AGAIN, this time its only 30 days. Dont ask me WHY. I have no cue. Apparently Daddy sent me a pvt message, but i received it after I was cut off, so I cant read it to know what I did.... I can't imagine, unless its for talking shit about Trump ? YES I do that alot..... And it has come to my attention that a member HERE, @Buddy2, who is also WilliamM "over there", runs back to the Daddy place after I comment here and lets them know that I talked smack about Daddy and his operation. Not sure WHY he does this, but perhaps Daddy then is teaching me a lesson with his yo-yo Banning ? I guess I am just a Bad, Bad boy ? Right ? @Buddy2.... nynakedtop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
