Matt starts out changing his clothes, so at the least audience members see him in his underwear, but from my seat a mirror gave me a quick look at his butt. He has a nice butt and a nice bulge. Once the play gets going, he has less of a role than I expected. He is clearly the handsomest actor, but his role is rather unimportant, or so I thought.

I read somewhere that boytoy.com wouldn't be subject to new rules on internet prostitution, etc. since it is not a US based company. Wrong? Otherwise, why the changes? I do note that Oz says the change is necessary for multiple reasons. But what difference does it make legally if nudes are in one forum or all forums? Either nudes are not allowed or they are. It would seem to be site-specific, not forum related. Just asking.

This happens a lot. I use closed-captioning for all British films and even many American ones. The Man in the Orange Shirt was inaudible at times.

I find it difficult to say this, but you might be right. Liberals did nothing when it was clear that many, if not most, voters were ignorant of the issues and not inclined to be educated. We should have pushed harder to educate them. Now we are faced with an increasingly popular Donald J. Trump getting to make his second appointment of a Supreme Court Justice, all the while he has been naming conservative judges for the lower courts. Despite widespread attack by the media, I think Trump is at the height of popularity with those who would consider him. I am not happy with this.

It's been 50 years since Matt Crowley's creation The Boys in The Band took to the stage. I saw the play and the movie, although much later. I was excited that the 50th Anniversary production would include the top gay actors of our time. I bought my ticket well in advance. But soon after performances began, I started hearing that the revival wasn't all that much, that the actors were miscast, that the play represented a bad time in gay history, that it had been defiled by combining the acts into one, and how could men be expected to sit for 110 minutes with no pee break? Last Saturday I received my answers. My seat was great, the show was wonderful, the actors were just fine, and the play duly represented a time in our past that wasn't that much different than our now. Specifically, was the play too bitchy? Anyone who posts on gay message boards would realize that we continue to act much as our gay predecessors did.\ We have bitchy moments and we have loving moments. Trying to meld the two continues, but it's not always easy. So, I am glad that I saw the play. Yes, I paid a bit much as the play was later discounted. But my seat was just great. As a side note, I took a chance that This Ain't No Disco would be worthwhile. Shortly after I paid $89 each for 2 tickets, it was on TDF for $33. Although it contained some wonderful voices and fascinating effects and lighting, I still don't know what it was about. Something having to do with Studio 54 or not.

This is probably a thread change, but maybe not. We have talked at length about young-looking guys here before. Many people look younger than their stated age, and some groups just have young look as a standard feature. When one looks on the internet for images on "twink porn" Google delivers pages of naked young guys. Pages of them. I hope that they all have 2257 statements, because if we cannot rely on Google to keep us away from underage images, well, the battle won't be won. The search results do seem to show underage guys, but one must consider that not everyone looks their age, and besides, this is Google here. Surely the masters of the internet are not feeding images of underage guys.I know that Tumblr is vigilant in keeping underage pics off of it.

Well then, we all come out winners when numazu starts reporting! I look forward to reading more, and I'll keep an eye out for a PM with a pic I will like...(hint, numazu, hint!) I'll be going to Brazil before I go to Bangkok again, so all of the info is quite helpful too.

OneFinger, thanks for sharing this information. I wish you well!

It looks to be a rather large house with an ample supply of water. It does appear, however, that a muscular, tattooed man thinks he belongs there too!

Numazu deserves praise if for only livening up boytoy.com as it hits the summer doldrums. I remember the days when Asians took a back seat, and it is thrilling to see Numazu take the lead on a hot topic here. Not only is that thrilling, but his tales are too. Now, if he would just show more than a tease of Gabriel!

The Daily Beast today highlights the campaign of Suraj Patel as he contests the Congressional seat held in New York by Carolyn Mahoney, who is a co-sponsor of SESTA and FOSTA. Sex workers rallied for Patel, creating a new feeling in his campaign. We can be surprised that more don't oppose this phone attempt to stop sex-trafficking, but grateful that some are shining a light on it. https://www.thedailybeast.com/a-new-york-political-hopefuls-sex-worker-fight?ref=home

RockHardNYC and AdamSmith are welcome! I hope that you like the novel.

If this is not trying to have it both ways, I don't know what is.

The novel Less, by handsome Andrew Sean Greer, is a humorous tale of a writer who travels the world in order to avoid having to go to his ex-boyfriend's wedding. I finished it last week and enjoyed it all the way. Author Greer is the subject of a profile in today's Washington Post, where he lists the novels that he liked most when coming out: https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/books/andrew-sean-greer-5-books-that-were-important-to-me-when-i-was-coming-out/2018/06/18/37db1df4-6d92-11e8-bd50-b80389a4e569_story.html?utm_term=.13885c19d46e The Author

Trump today said that many immigration judges are corrupt. I wonder how they will respond to that. It's not an easy job, and compared to what private lawyers make, it doesn't pay that well. So, I expect some resignations. Trump has now attacked law enforcement on every level.

I would definitely grab!

I added the PBS channel to my Roku so I can watch it. It is available on demand, and free. But now I am on the list for pledge drives! Here's an LA Times article on the show: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/la-et-st-man-in-orange-shirt-20180614-htmlstory.html

I went to the one in Chelsea. You could hardly sit there without getting cum splattered on you. Those guys don't clean it up you know! The San Francisco YMCA had a steam room that was nonstop action. It was big, and there were several stairs. I once got hard watching these guys get it on. I waited and waited for my cock to get soft so I could go to the locker. It didn't, so I used a towel to hide it. But someone in the steam room saw me and followed me to my locker, where he frantically jacked his dick near me, waiting for me to respond. Well, I couldn't do it there, and I thought the guy was a bit much, so nothing happened. Sorry! (Why didn't he express his interest in the steam room?)

Do you have a favorite lurker? I do. It is gem147, here almost everyday. I'll bet his first post is a gem! Think what his 147th post will be!

Oops. Never mind!

Did he come out here?

Larstrup, I think this post is harsh. I recognize that Oz is encouraging us to be more civil to each other, and I am happy to do so. So I will just say that I think latbear4blk is not about himself. In my opinion, he is a positive poster who cares about other members and the board that we have created here. I also think that you care, too. (In that spirit, I hope the worst of our relationship is behind us.)

I like Club 117 better.

Next thread? I can't wait for Numazu's next post! Keep 'em coming! (I think he does that, too!)
