Looks like a reboot is in the works. I think in this case lugar does not literally mean a new address.

The most endorsed ideal body type preferred by gay men at the level of pure physical attractiveness is the muscular build, ie mesomorph somatotype, not just definition but mass. This is incontrovertible. Generally, the much smaller proportion of gay men preferring the slender build, ie ectomorph somatotype, is drawn to defined abs and well-developed butt. Those features are less dependent on overall muscularity. Beyond body type but more facially related, eyes and jawline are important.

The discussion seems to touch on quantitative versus qualitative. An uneven ratio in the brothel setting poses the conundrum of exponentiality. A ho:john ratio of 3:1 requires an average john commitment of 3 programas for each provider to leave with a minimum paycheque. If the average bottom-line earnings expectation for sustainability is 2 programas, the average consumers’ hire rate for the same inventory ratio climbs to 6 tricks per visit. No gawkers, no time-wasters, no middle-agers appropriating the bar for peer socializing because they are invisible in conventional gay clubs. The garota brothel ratio is closer to 1:5 but the providers, unlike garotos, are not hampered by the diminished return of consecutive chamber bullets in the context of expectations for objective physiological evidence of authentic arousal. The hetero clients are there for one purpose alone, yet patron volume relative to provider inventory seems to be vast and supports the notion of quality over quantity despite the absolute numbers of working ladies.

Models today are social media advertisers. There is greater status and safety compared to tricking. The instant gratification of ego-boosts may seem shallow but is more humanized than the brothel setting. Idealized macro-influencers such as Ronaldo offer role-modeling. I think it is possible that, while each post offers an audition for discovery and the dreamscape of potential increase in access to fame, the financial gain accrued by nano-influencers (let alone micro-influencers) relative to labour-intensity supersedes that of brothel earnings. Moreover, companies paying stipends for social media product placement are expanding their marketing to the nano-influencer subgroup and are not lowballing according to geo-specificity and wage demographics. The compensation differential for Brazilian escorts is not replicated in the clothing, sports etc industry.

Influx of Brazilian Escorts to LA

What prior difficulty? The requirements for a visitor visa are the same as before, with a rejection rate < 15%, better than some highly developed European and Commonwealth nations. Mercosur ... non-Muslim. -

Forgive me if this is buried somewhere on the forum, but I am curious about whether the garotos de programa currently pay a facility entrance fee there.

Barcelona (Thermas) 2019 latest recommendations
Riobard replied to joe2001london's topic in European Men and Destinations
Junior is great, one of the best ever there. Few guys interest me in both roles. Also advertises. I hooked up with Marcio a few times not too long after he first came in from Rio Grande do Sul (or maybe it was Santa Catarina state). He seemed a little tentative but certainly aimed to please. Stunning natural build. I find Gabriel less warm but he does not disappoint as a power top. I actually don’t mind variety in personality types. -
I am not seeing that trend on Booking.com, but a few 5* with rate increases higher than the handful of hotels I have used and that have modest increases. The important thing is that you know what you want and whether to commit. Good luck.

Hotel rate increases are not nearly commensurate with Airbnb and similar platform rate increases that are astronomical during Christmas-Réveillon and Carnival weeks. The hotel room inventory is about 10-fold the volume of Airbnb, swelled way above needs-as-usual as a result of construction for World Cup and Olympics, and does not nearly reach 100% occupancy for Carnival. The lovely 4-star hotel I obtained for friends coming to visit in Nov 2017 (I had my fave small apartment nearby) is going for 3,000 reais total for 7 nights Feb20-27, about 15-20% more than I paid for that low-season period two years ago. Adjusting for currency depreciation in my favour, closer to 25% more for a national. While Airbnb owners inflate their profits twice a year due to demand, hotels seem content with the bottom line of much higher occupancy during those periods. I am sure you can find rate outliers with exorbitant increases, though, and you may need to be flexible about location.

Rio Salvador Manaus Nov Dec 2019
Riobard replied to pauleiro's topic in Latin America Men and Destinations
Kkkkk ... Clube11 should be nuts tomorrow, I think the previous time prize money was only 1st place R$500, and this time is closer to Xmas. And with free cabins all the time. I would be collecting phone numbers like crazy. -
Rio Salvador Manaus Nov Dec 2019
Riobard replied to pauleiro's topic in Latin America Men and Destinations
Assuming the lower area was a stretch known as “downtown (or lower town) cobblers” with Av JJ Seabra running through it, I would not walk there at night. I stayed in a hotel marked ‘Htl’ in green and walked to Pelourinho and back, or down to Clube11, in daylight but after dark in particular is courting trouble. You would also likely need your phone out for GPS guidance. -
“A Little Life”, Hanya Yanagihara, 2015. Darker themes, long, but a bestseller.

LOL, I know, that is what led me to the Instagram and eventually to research Parahyba. We appreciate you taking the Manauense plunge into the ofurô.
-
Actually, Parahyba does definitely have GdePs, referenced in a few places, and another clue is it follows Ofurô (Manaus) on IG. It has a slick website, likely a well managed venue.

Escort Guys in Europe - Where do they move in Summer?
Riobard replied to forrestreid's topic in European Men and Destinations
I know, right? That is what occurred to me. Clients lose on selection and providers lose on visibility. I just did a search for Barcelona along the same lines. Ratio 4.5 : 1 for site listings volume versus listings when logged into Planet Romeo.- 21 replies

Fly more pay less....
Riobard replied to Bucknaway1614502762's topic in Latin America Men and Destinations
I cannot control connection wait times, but I can tell you that Philadelphia-Toronto-SãoPaulo adds a whopping 80 miles of flight compared to Philadelphia-Atlanta-SãoPaulo. -

In 55 years of flying out of Canada I have never had a major delay, missed connection, or lost bag, though sometimes a minor delay for winter de-icing. Pure good fortune, as I always expect a problem in winter to break the lucky streak. -

Riobard replied to Bucknaway1614502762's topic in Latin America Men and Destinations
I believe the answer lies in the comparatively low Air Canada fares from Toronto (YYZ). Toronto-GRU on its daily gorgeous Dreamliner is surprisingly inexpensive at certain seasonal times, hundreds less than much closer Europe and usually cheaper than Copa thru Panama. This makes it appealing to Brazilians as evidenced by the high rate of Portuguese spoken among passengers. A USA visa confers entry to Canada, many want to see Niagara Falls, and they can take the train or bus to NYC, etc. I am paying about $500USD return for my next Air Canada direct São Paulo flight from Montreal (a new winter service). When Air Canada eliminated Rio direct they added a GRU-GIG codeshare connection for no additional charge. It looks like they are dinging you to get up to TO from Philly and back. TO-SP return in May is $615USD most days. Overall, the fares you displayed are priced high. -
