I got another glitch for your team, @TotallyOz. When I fill the search box, and then click on the icon for search, I am logged out. I have to log in and, the second time, the search runs.

I am seeing many.

I've noticed that my typos and mistakes have increased. Gladly, I am quite busy and writing in a rush. As my health is doing great in this trip, I do not have all the extra time I had in Salvador, when my back was acting up. Diego is a wonderful companion. Not only is 100% reliable and honest, but also very aware of budgets and look after me paying the best prices when we are going around. Yesterday he took me to Praia de Grumari (in some places it is called Praia de Abricó), about one hour and R$80 in Uber. The views are paradisiacal and it is a nudist beach. According to Diego, you must be naked on weekends, but nudity is optional during the week. After hanging up around we had a generous lunch in the beach restaurant, the most expensive check I had to pay so far, but eating and drinking with that view worths it. I am told you can easily have sex in the many discrete little corners in between the rocks. I was not looking for doing anything and just relaxed and enjoy the sun with Diego. A guy not far away from us was jerking off, I am not sure whether he was looking at Diego or at a group of women working in a nude photo shot. Here you have some pictures. Back in Rio in the afternoon, we relaxed at my place. As the sex he is able to give me is not what I am looking for, I was not really interested in doing anything, but Diego insisted that he wanted sex. He insisted a lot. So we played for a while, took a shower, and went to 202. It was a big night in the sauna, many GPs of all sizes and kinds. Surprisingly, the A/C was on and the feeling was very comfortable despite the crowd. There was a lot of people but not enough to make the place feel full. A beautiful drag performed a few songs lip singing and two strippers did a show. I loved the drag, I was underwhelmed by the strippers. Hot guys, one of them a very good dancer, but in my opinion they were not sexy performers. I made a mistake that is not helping my appreciation of saunas. Instead of following my guts like @numazu1 advises me, I went with a friends recommended by Diego. He was not able to take my dick. It was the day that cabins are free, and we had a long wait to go in. Once the fiasco sex was over, I felt like everyone was leaving and went home horny, frustrated, and hating saunas. I am better now and will keep trying. However, I must say that out of my several visits to the three saunas en Salvador, and my two visits to 202, I am only getting class C sex. My experiences with GPs out of saunas are much, much better. I am not ready yet to definitively judge that saunas are not for me, but I am close. Probably if I had more time to explore the offer and find the guys who truly enjoy bottoming, I would have a better outcome from my visits. I am not quitting yet. I went to sleep horny, and I woke up horny very early. My plan was devoting the morning to writing, but I was hit in Grindr by this: Wagner, carioca, 25 y.o., GP two blocks away from my place, R200 in calls, 250 outcalls. We quickly established compatibility and made the appointment. The guy was dynamite. Without reaching the highs of Italo, but indeed excellent outstanding sex. He may start publishing his escort services and you may have a full review in that case. We are planning a second meeting on Sunday. I have to check out at 10am and my flight departs at 9PM, so I will probably stopped by his very nice apartment for a last farewell. See you all later.

He is a cutie. Check his performance in one of Latin Leche videos, to have a little sampling of him.

I disagree and it is not my experience, but I do not have time to discuss this.

I did not see the problem when I posted, assuming he was a GP offering himself, but I see now after reading @Riobard post what the problem is. However, I am not afraid but sorry for violating his privacy. I was wrong at posting those pics. If you follow my history you will see that I am evolving to a more respectful for privacy stand. Thank you for confronting me. If @TotallyOz is reading this and want to delete the Grindr pictures, I would appreciate it. My apologies to everyone, it will not happen again.

Grindr and Scruff are working better, I just do not have much time for more hook ups. The few GPs who contacted me via apps all asked for R150. This is the best looking (to me) who contacted me via Grindr: On Monday I was supposed to go to the beach with Diego, who I was expecting at 10 AM. However, the day became slightly cloudy and it was too cold, so instead we stayed at my place. First we played for a long time, he is a good kisser and gets hard very quickly. He told me he was versatile, but he is not. He really tried, though. I mean it, I may be a newbie at Brazil, but I have been with many G4P guys who would fake they were trying to get fucked. He really tried, but I did not feel he was enjoying it, and raping guys is not one of my fantasies. After we both busted kissing and jerking off, we got lunch, some weed, and returned to the nest. This is Diego, you can find him in 202 or 117, I am sharing this picture with his permission. Someone told him that pictures published out of the USA cannot be seen in Brazil, hopefully I educated about that. He has a girlfriend and do not want to put his face out. But trust me, his face is damn sexy. We spent the whole afternoon smoking and chatting, he was very opened about his life and I am not going to share here. Just let me say he is another good guy struggling with life. He is very honest, my place was full of temptations and he behave better than most escorts I have met in America. He did a great job an entertaining and treating me like his boyfriend, we were all the time hugging and making out. Until of course we were ready for another session of full sex. This is when he really tried to get fucked. My dick would go only half way and after keeping it there for a while he would not be able to take it anymore. The whole process was kind of hot. I would feel I was hurting and try to pul out, he would stop me and push me to stay inside and trying, and this process would repeat as I was getting deeper and deeper, but never getting to a full penetration. He is very accommodating, and was clearly a guy used to be in control struggling to be in a submissive role. If you are into bottoming with a sweet but dominant man, he will be your dream boy. Right now I am waiting for him, he is coming at 10 and we will try again to go to the beach. He charged me 150, I paid 250 plus perhaps 100/150 more in food, drinks, and maconha. I was happy and not in the mood for more sex, so I did not go to the saunas. Instead, I took a walk around Copacabana. The concerns for security are obviously visible. All buildings are caged and staffed usually 24 hours. Mine is. However, so far I have not witnessed or feel any risky situation. Yesterday I went to the National History Museum and the Museum of Modern Art, and walk around the XXII memorial, Flamengo Park, and Flamengo neighborhood. I absolutely love this city, it is indeed the most beautiful I have been to. Not only the architecture is very diverse and beautiful, but the landscape, the geography is just amazing. I am not going to post pictures here, most of you can lecture me on Brazil. I feel very much at home. When I was in Cincinnati grading AP exams, I befriended a colleague from Recife. When I told him about how surprised I was when I visited Salvador at my comfort with the people and the city, about how safe and welcomed I felt, contrasting it to the horror histories often shared in America, she told me that the security concerns in Rio are real, but exaggerated by the Gringos, who feel in Brazil as a Black or Hispanic person probably feels in America. She also made a comment about me being able to pass as Brazilian and not being targeted by thieves. I know that some of you are going to get upset, but that was her opinion. I am aware of the security concerns. I do not walk around with a backpack or anything that can be taken. I try to be aware of my surroundings when I am using my phone. I am not bringing to my place anyone who is not recommended by a friend or acquainted. I specially liked the Museum of Modern Art. Their permanent collection is impressive. However is not close to its similar in São Paulo, when I visited back in the late 80s. Even the MALBA in Buenos Aires is better, I think. Then I had Italo Andrade visiting me. He was one of my best sexual experiences ever, for free or for a fee. He charged me 200, and I offered him 300 to include a photo session for my blog. This is Italo: I save the details for a future post. The only reason I am not hiring him for the rest of my staying is that he is right now traveling to Recife, to visit his family. I cannot recommend this boy more. You can check his work in Flavaworks and several Brazilian porn outlets, he has been working in porn since he was 17, he is now 22. I know, he started with Marcelo Maestro with illegal age. Right now I am waiting for Diego. The plan is going to the beach and then to a sauna, whatever is the best sauna to go today, he will know. He will do his programs, and I will do my thing. Hopefully. I am definitely not a fun of saunas, but of course I must go as often as I can. Diego's phone was stolen in a sauna, and he has insistently advised me to be very aware of mu possessions and my pockets, as he has witnessed GPs making out with clients and in the process getting into his pockets and taking his money. See you all later.

I do not have much time to write, I am going to be brief, and later give more details. The beach day was cancelled, it was too cold. Instead I spent the day with Diego, from 10:30 to 5, we had sex twice, good sex, his fee was R150, I gave him 250. I just met Italo Andrade, $200, check link to his ad in my blog. The meeting was amazing, if he was not leaving tomorrow I would be renting him for every day for the rest of my stay. He busted three times during our date. So much better than anything I have gotten so far from saunas in Salvador, and my one time in a sauna here. See you all later.

Please check my thread, I do not have time to write.

I've been only for three days in Rio. So far these are the fees I am dealing with, all prices are in Brazilian currency: Boy in sauna: 150/200, negotiable rate according to what you want to do. Personally, I do not like sex in the sauna, but it is the safer option to go to. Escort publishing in Internet: 150/200. I got two local porn stars for 200 the hour in my place. (I am only inviting these guys to my place because I got recommendations from a third party) Spending the day together (I am not into overnights): Apparently the standard time is something like 10AM to 5PM. I was quoted 150, ended paying 250 because the guy was just amazing. He was also recommended by a third party. I do not know whether or not these are representative prices, but they are the prices I have dealt with so far.

I am in Rio! Azul's flight from Baires was great, I was in my Airbnb in Copacabana by 8:30 PM. As I was tired, instead of going to 117, I went to 202. The lady in the counter warned me that Sunday was a slow day. I walked in and a group of about 7 GPs were hanging out in the bar, and I was the immediate focus of attention, as there were not many clients around. Carlos, a mountain of muscles (not my type) gave me a very warm welcome, but I invited him with a drink and did my best to get ride of him. When I was starting to regret my decision to go to the closest sauna instead of going to the best one, I hooked up with Diego. Diego is a pretinho I had met in Salvador, who is one of @numazu1's boys. Our friend (he still reads the forums now and then) likes sending me pictures of his harem to make me jealous, and Diego is actually the only boy in his crew that I always loved. I was not in the mood to fuck, so we just made up, he did a programa, and came back to me and we kept making out. He is an excellent kisser and exactly the kind of guy I like: athletic, smooth, and not over muscular. We left together just a few minutes ago and made an appointment for tomorrow. We are going to spend the day in the beach, besides playing, and he quoted me only R150. Of course, I am going to be much more generous than that, the guys is delicious. I am disappointed at Grindr. When I arrive to Baires o Corrientes, the app does not stop hitting me. I have been here for about 4 hours and just 3 hits, all of them not appealing. I need to do grocery shopping, I am starving.

I am so fucking out of shape. I really need to start doing cardio or swimming regularly. I met Carlos today and left his place exhausted, I do not think I have energy to meet the other Venezuelan boy tonight. Carlos was great, although the whole situation was weird. He is now living with other two students I could hear getting in and out of the apartment while we were making out and fucking, and that lack of privacy took a lot away from the experience. We will keep meeting once I am back from Rio, and I hold a full report until then, as I want to give specifics about his availability or lack of. Right now, it looks like he shut down escorting for the locals, but it may be interested in finding a way of being reachable for visitors. We will work on that once I am back. As I have decided not to go out again (well, I may change my mind), I am packing right now. It looks like I am going to have a quite cool Carioca weather next week.

Is anyone else having this issue? The alerts (o notifications?) stay up even after I read the responses, checked the reactions, or opened the messages. Sometimes they disappear just to come back a few seconds after. Also, I receive emails letting me know about a new message in my mailbox. I go to the mailbox, but the notification is about an email I already read. So, instead of just checking the messages listed in the little window that unfolds when I click on the envelope icon, I click in go to Inbox. There I can see the messages I did not see before. It is kind of annoying. I apologize if I did not respond quickly to some private message.

Back to Buenos Aires, leaving tomorrow to Rio. My trip to Corrientes finished great. I saw the Baker a second time, and this time he greeted me with a wonderful kiss. He is also a top, so we ended having another hot session of oral sex. I got his WhatsApp, this guys really wakes my curiosity, He is completely atypical for Corrientes, and when I tried to learned about his background, he would always respond with evasive jokes. I only learned that he speaks English better than I do (yeah, I am setting a low standard, I know) and some French, and he is originally from San Luis del Palmar, a small town not too far away from Corrientes. I wanna know more. I met another hot boy through Grindr, 22 years old, student in the local School of Architecture. Like many of the guys I interacted on line over there, he was very closeted and concerned about being discrete. He even deleted his pictures as soon as I viewed them, so I have nothing to show. He did not have a place and neither I did, but he did have a car. We ended fucking in his car, parked in the Parque Mitre, right across the street where I was staying. Hot but uncomfortable. WARNING FOR VISITORS TRAVELING TO AEROPARQUE JORGE NEWBERY. I flew back to Buenos Aires yesterday afternoon. I had not noticed this is a long week end here. July 9th is Independence Day, and the government made also Monday a non work day to encourage tourism. Local flights do not use Ezeiza, the international airport out of the city, but Aeroparque Jorge Newbery, right in the middle of it. When we arrived and I wanted to take a cab, the line was about 200 ms. (I am in the metric system, guys). If I wanted a remise instead, I had to wait 2 hours and pay twice the fee. Uber was sowing no available cars in the area. So I got in the line. In Buenos Aires, taxi drivers have a powerful Union and several mafias around transportation hubs. Most times the danger is not for the passengers, but to other taxi drivers who are not paying their mafia fee. However, quite frequently drivers would attempt to scam their passengers by not running the taximeter and asking for abusive fees. Until last year, to fight against this, city police set cameras to film the cars licenses and the drivers faces. This year they added an extra lier of security. Before getting in the line, passengers have to go to automatic stations pretty much similar to the check in stations in all airports. You enter your destination address and name, and the station prints a duplicated receipt with a price estimate for the trip. When you get in the car, you handle one copy to the driver and keep the other one. After 55 minutes in the line, I finally got in a car. My driver was great, he was the one who told me about the mafias. The ticket estimated $AR 270 for the trip, the taximeter marked only AR$ 210 (from the airport to Recoleta). Even if this weekend traffic was exceptional because of the national holiday, I am told that the line to take a cab is always ridiculously long. My warning and advise to travelers is: if you are arriving to Aeroparque Jorge Newbery you should rent a remise service before departing from your place of origin. It is going to be more expensive than taking a cab, but you will avoid a line that, I am told, is never shorter than 30'. This morning I woke up early and took advantage of the sunny day to walk around. Buenos Aires looks more beautiful than ever, at least this privileged area does. It may be a good idea to bring some cash to avoid paying the fees for withdrawing from ATMs (about U$S 10). I am using my CC and DC has much as I can, but in some places they do not accept them. In a few hours I am meeting with Carlos Aleman. As he is retired now, he does not live alone anymore, and have to kick out his two room mates to see me. When I return from Brazil I will have my own place. Tonight I am meeting (if I have any stamina left after Carlos) with a 24 y.o. boy, also Venezuelan, who hit me in Grindr. All the pictures in his profile and in his IG have his face, so I am not going to share, but he is very attractive. His headline is "No Flacos!" ("no skinny guys!"), perfect for a daddy bear like myself. The boy is hot enough for me to pay, but this is a for free hook up. For a while, very often, the guys I am hooking up with or hiring tell me I look younger in person than in my pictures. I just decided to change my profiles in Grindr and Scruff. I am not lying, but I am not sharing my age. I also changed my picture. In the previous one my goatee was visibly full of grey hair. I trimmed it to make the hair very short, look now remarkably younger, and took new pics. New pictures are up. My Grindr is quite active, of course I am a novelty. So far only one guy has contacted me asking for money, AR$ 1,500. He is cute, but not cute enough for me to pay. Tomorrow at noon I am leaving to Rio from Ezeiza. If you read the post in my blog that I shared above, I have already booked Italo Andrade and Estevão Olivera. See you all soon.

When I retire I am gonna move to Palm Springs to spank you and get you elected.

Sounding contrarian is fine. I like respectful disagreement, and this is a topic there is no much conversation about.

I agree in general with everything you said. I just think that probably we need a switch to a more sex positive culture before making significative progress towards accepting sex work. I can only picture the fight for Sex Workers and clients' rights within the broader context of a huge sex education effort. We are not going to achieve much on acceptance of gay sex without first making sex more acceptable and deserving of celebration and public conversation.

That we need to follow the lead and support female prostitutes is out of question. Of course we must. My analogy using the role played by gay visibility in gay rights movement was intended to be applied to all Johns visibility, not only to the gay ones. I agree moving from where we are now is not going to be easy, but we already have some (like SWOP) already starting. I am trying to find a place with them or something like them, and follow the lead of female prostitutes in their fight.

Renting an airbnb seems to be the best option. Right?

I just talked to Randisan. I mention him in my post, and I strongly recommend him. His fee published in Rentmen is U$S 100, which is considerable more expensive than what Douglas would charge you. He is leaving Buenos Aires this Sunday, so I will not be able to see him in this trip.

Well, I do disagree. When the first homosexual activists came out of the closet, they were a minority and they built alliances with those still not ready to go public, and got their help to lobby and advance their agenda. This is not different. The beginning will be hard but hopefully once the ball is rolling more and more people would be willing to go public. I like to envision it in the broader picture of fighting for a more sex positive culture.

In case you are having second thoughts about Douglas, I have been doing some research as I wanna try new boys in the second half of July, when I will be man hunting in Buenos Aires. In this just published article I am unfolding my plans. If you do not want to read it all, scroll down until the section where I addressed Erik, Fran, and Luciano. I am very hopeful about those three boys. I may also reach out to Luka and Renzo. Check them up. Enjoy your trip and do not forget to sample the local food and culture!

I am also following SWOP, right now they are in an effort to reach out to male prostitutes or former prostitutes, but they do not seem to have a place for clients like me. I like them. Part of the problem with activism for decriminalization is visibility. Let's not forget that the coming our movement was probably;y what made the biggest difference in the fight for gay rights. When people saw how many we are, and how far away from their stereotyped we often are, they started to change their preconceptions. As long as clients continue to hide, the fight for sex workers right will continue in their exclusive hands. My long term plan is coming out as a John once I am retired from my teaching career. Have you ever thought of running for a local office, @stevenkesslar? California and Palm Springs look like friendly spots for a candidate focused on a sex positive agenda and sex work decriminalization. I am very ignorant of American history, but I do not think someone has ever ran before under such a platform. It would be an interesting experiment that could give us the chance to make our argument louder and stronger.

It was his birthday and I was the third client of the day. Besides my experience, his services are consistently praised in the local forums. I will see him at least one more time during this trip.
