Are my posts difficult to translate into another language?

My use of google translate was far from perfect as it required translation on each end of negotiation via WhatsApp when hiring from online.  The guys were all good natured about the translations that were off & had some errors - likewise, I got some strange translations from them. But more than adequate to get the job done.   I used it to translate posts in OnlyFans but also made note I was using Google translate and sorry for imperfect grammar, etc  Also used it for Twitter.  I used Twitter to identify the porn stars because they tend to use to promote their paid OnlyFans subscriptions and they can post porn videos there. 
Once meeting in person, almost no need for translate - was able to make it work.  

In Lagoa, no use of Google translate at all - the boys knew enough rough English to make an agreement.  They thought my Portuguese was funny.  I was surprised by the other clients who were eager to practice their English w me & invited me to join their groups. Super friendly & welcoming.  

In general, I found way more people in SP spoke English than expected, or in Rio by comparison.  It was explained to me that SP as an international financial/business center has many professional people eager to learn English and working on it.  Many global companies have a footprint in São Paulo with a South American HQ there - Google, Facebook, Instagram and many others are all there.  Even some Uber drivers were ready to practice English. Made it much easier to visit and move around than Rio IMO.  Could have just been I was mainly in Jardins which tends to be wealthier and more educated people.

Generally, that’s been my experience as well and, I agree, one is more likely to cross paths with an English speaker in SP than elsewhere.

This is no big deal but my question pertained to my last post and not translation in general.  I know there are members out there translating these posts from English into other languages and, well, I had just opted to write, “looks like Baron Harkonnen” instead of “not repulsive” which struck me as something that might not translate all that well so I added the question to the end of the post.

Basically, what I am looking for is guys so far out of my league that I really have no hope of getting for free

This is pretty much the guiding principle for any kind of whoremongering, no matter what your type or preference may be. Clients want to pay for the kind of guy that’s either out of their league or is otherwise unavailable to them back home. I’ve found that to be the case even with those who say they prefer the “boy next door, normal / average” guys — not just those who prefer the so-called muscle gods and supermodels.

exactly - and in Brazil at 300reias/$60 for GarotoComLocal hotel visit or 200reias/$40 at Lagoa, why would anyone screw around w Grindr?  I’m baffled.  I could waste time on the apps at home if I had the patience.

US prices are 5x higher & less quality.  Not much of a decision process for me.  

One thing I’ve learned from my brief time here is that some will always choose the most difficult path and then be surprised when things don’t work out.  To each his own.

For some people, the need to prove to themselves and others that they are (still) sexually appealing is very strong.

In their heads, getting it for free (or less) = “I’m not like those other clients who have to pay because they’re old / fat / fugly.”

Even with the ad sites, my first try earlier this year in Brazil, in fact I think my first attempt since started visiting in 2015 other than a few reaching outs quickly truncated in March 2020, yielded a crackpot or miffed before his morning coffee probably not from a cracked pot. Before this end piece in the dialogue there had been one brief text from me, redacted for anonymity. I had complimented his appearance, indicated my primary language, and requested a brief outline of his compensation expectations. To his credit, conveying from the outset that he was an asshole was appreciated. I likely won’t matriculate to Grindr. 

And to the recent question regarding reviews similar to the other site, I would never grouse or warn about a Brazilian provider unless I wanted it to get back to him. LOL

I find that most people tell you exactly who they are very quickly.  This is a fine example.

When I hear Grindr, I cringe.  The last thing I’d want to do on vacation is stay glued to my phone playing apps.  Boring beyond words.

If you needed to be glued to find a good hook up, you would be correct. However, Grindr is the most effective way to find a nearby hook up for free. I have no issues paying for sex, but it is very nice to fuck now and them with someone who actually finds you attractive. Sometimes, it takes you as much as five minutes when you are a traveler.

Some on here are looking only for sex. Others are looking to make connections and experience another culture.  Neither position is wrong but I do think it greatly influences one’s response to the are free-Grindr-meets-a-good-use-of-time-while-on-travel question.

Transactional sex is fine but I like making connections too.  For example, last month when I was in Rio, I learned where to go in Rocinha to buy weed….  The gangsters have a store with with a large black pig named Elizabeth out front….  I don’t smoke but, well, it doesn’t get more authentic than that which is what I was looking for on that particular day of my vacation.

Absolutely. The three guys who guided me through my first Medayork visit were from Grindr and Scruff. Two of them are strong candidates for long term friendships.

Lot's of vacation days at your job it seems 😆

I actually like Brazil best when I am not completely on vacation.  Perhaps the next time that we are in the same city at the same time, I could buy you several beers and you could let me pick your brain about how you made the years you spent living in Brazil work.

I don’t understand what this anecdote has to do with Grindr / free sex vs. transactional sex. I could just as easily learn that or similar information from a working guy / garoto de programa — because sometimes, we actually talk, communicate and connect. It’s not like these guys don’t live in communidades, too.

and two, being a small guy he liked the safety of the sauna. This may go some ways to help explain why there seem to be a preponderance of small guys in the sauna. 

I like smaller men.  Must start using saunas....
