That’s odd, compared to Monik’s apparently greater attempts at mitigation intentionality, as Junior has always projected Alpha in terms of determination to stay above water and the club reputedly has both B.1.1.7 and Q lineages. The majority of occupants’ thirst overrides balking at entrance requirements. Applying public health guidance diligently is directly correlated with venue sustainability.

And by the way, while we’re on the topic of nasalpharyngeal viral shedding, what’s with this dumb viral faddism, and are their innocent designer pooches destined for parallel fashion statements? All my ratings 1-10 are dripping a point, ex cept umm … if it’s removable, or one of them is otherwise extraordinary enough to separate himself from the herd and I can muster up the forbearance to roll with it. Eeesh … what a flaccidizer.

Shoving your tongue into a guy’s mouth and his hole 1:1 in a suite at, say, Lagoa, is likely low risk. It’s the air in the main congregation area on a busy night that’s the new poop.

It’s a decree established a week ago and I expect a lot of establishments are not thrilled about being enforcers. There is a lack of uniformity across states, regions, and municipalities as Bolsonaro and the courts continue to battle out decisions. Like many places, Quebec province has a scannable app that contains a QR matrix code proving vaccination. Scanners are issued to bars, gyms, restaurants etc. It’s much faster for venues than dealing with a mix of paper certifications and matrix codes. But you won’t get into an establishment here without it and fines can be levied against lackadaisical venues.

I take it, then, that some of the single-dosers fit into the overall minority that took the Janssen vaccine, while others are partially vaccinated. I believe that the younger age groups may be queuing up to obtain full vaccination status that is chugging along well, at the same time that booster doses are being rolled out for older folks (and then descending age-group order) whose prime series uptake is more dated and more represented by the less effective CoronaVac. Good to know there is receptivity to a direct inquiry and generally the kind of monolithic viewpoint about it that we appreciate. They must be accustomed to it by now. In municipal São Paulo the probability of at least one active infection within any random group of 50 not age-adjusted and not sorted according to vaccination status is 1.7%

IDK, but … Enjoy. A very opportune time. Case incidence is practically at an all-pandemic low there, perhaps a calm before the storm. I think better to ask in a more open-ended way how they protect themselves and their families from novel coronavirus infection rather than how protected you are from them based on a binary answer regarding inoculation. It’s easy to work into conversation because the theme is front-and-centre, perhaps a bit less intrusive than requesting their ‘vaccine passport’ status. The fact is that their realities can range from hybrid superimmunity from having had SARS-CoV-2 plus a prime vaccination series and a recent booster demonstrating assiduous attention to disease prophylaxis, to a wacko belief system about the risks of infection and it’s potential consequences, Bozo- grade misinformed notions about prevention, seriousness, etc. What they reveal can be very telling and steer you into a suite with them versus moving on to the next possibly saner guy for grill and spill.

I’m light on breakfast and dinner and prefer a substantial midday meal when travelling. 26 months ago Balsa at the Gold Museum, packed at peak lunchtime but accommodated walk-in basis around 13:30, was quite fine. Similarly, Marcha within the cluster of museums that includes Botero Museum. Both satisfying following hours of sightseeing and without being tied to a reservation timeline. I had figured on returning at least once a year but, like everybody else’s best-laid plans … Good to have these recent top-tier eatery tips for an eventual return, having accomplished the typical first-time sched-loaded 1-week sights sweep and able to slow it down next time.

Now on tap in Canada and in Brazil where I have plans to winter. I hope border measures don’t get too restrictive again based on regional VOC prevalence differentials.

Never tell your trick your phone is set up for roaming.

You are asking in the right place and there must be a simple succinct answer.

Whatever happens, it appears he will have had a good run. And he still survives in these troubled times when many retail settings everywhere have gone under. I have often not found what I like there. How many vendors can claim they make money from little more than window-shopping? eg 100+ BRL, and I take up very little space. I wonder if little do locals know the strip club admission up here in my neck of the woods is 0-25% his rate, yet where much of the activity is illegal, Canada following the Nordic Model of commercial sex work prohibition.

A repeat rundown doesn’t hurt. Unlike you, I’m in no position to evaluate whether the thematic repetition conveys you cannot get out of your own head about it. —— For the general readership here, I also always have a solid ample budget when I visit … it’s actually obscene how much funding has accumulated for my next trip, being in travel hiatus and all … and throw a lot of cash around but at a level likely not sustainable full-time several evenings per week for me, and particularly locals that would be considering a new expenditure, ie, lapdances. Additionally, I was there on this date exactly 5 years ago … in fact, when landed we had had a bit of delay on the USA election results … and my currency is now worth 88% more.

I am not at liberty to show photos of Montreal strippers that may be viewed as ‘a cut above’ but tend to not be among the ones open to their images integrated into club ads or social media. A matter of personal taste, obviously, but IMHO no comparison with the majority of Brazilian gogos.

Good to know these specific details about what you like and your prognostication about possibilities.

The hours of loop of videos at Pnt202 it is, then. A featured show and business as usual. Any suggestions to attenuate Junior’s lament?

I have the good, perhaps rare, fortune of being able to extract what I like about the erotic entertainment/outlet options of two cultural settings. Of course, the potential profitability of a new adjunct in either setting, be it according to this brief discussion or where poutine / feijão can fly, hinges on tradition and attachment to the familiar.

Sorry, @davet, that’s João Pessoa. What’s the one in São Luiz?

Is that Parahyba? What’s it like? —- The host protesteth muchly. It’s a special skill. The ones OK at it tend to keep it on the DL, though I’ve had a few gogo programas on site that I proposed as private dances and where they took the lead for interaction not distinguishable from a typical GdeP encounter, without any upsell. The ones shitty at it in relation to conventional local client expectations there would never [gasp!], as it’s beneath them. But the boundary variation is no different from the performative gradient among strippers in my neck of the woods. They just tend to be express being more flattered than insulted and don’t protest that you might stereotype them as prostitutes.

Good points. I was aware of all these considerations when I put forward the idea. I had actually also recalled that you yourself highlight a proportion of clientele that shows up as a social outlet more for watching than doing. The population age pyramid in Brazil is also quickly creeping up with a greater proportional share of 30’s, 40’s entering mid to later middle age, with presumably a concomitant desire for public venues beyond hire apps. A growing ‘silver economy’ pulling up aging gay men into it. I didn’t suggest that the gogo boy contingent adopt the private dance model or that the stripper/privatedance model would supplant the circumscribed period of time in which the drag/gogo performance occurs. I believe the venue pays a fee for the show. In contrast, integrating the stripper concept would not dip into the house profit margins. There would need to be some segregation between the two stage-gaze performance models and between the private model of programa and private/semi-private lapdance model. One of the reasons I highlighted Pnt202 is that the structure could accommodate this functional split in the same way I have witnessed such activity segregation in several establishments that have multiple floor levels serving clientele, eg Toronto, Montreal, CDMX, Bogotá. In Brazil, it would involve adding the middle ground I described that would live on the continuum between gogonotprostitutebutprostitutionthatmaybebyanothername, and conventional quarta trick. Obviously, the key is finding a new performative breed that the clientele willingly supports financially, and overriding the risk of a JetsSharks-grade feud between garotos and strippers (or streepers and gogos as some of the latter might resent losing private business on the down low). Of course, I could go on and add the house massage w/w-out benefits, &c, &c. If commercial sex work were to be decriminalized in Canada, it would likely be a challenge to integrate a sauna brothel - massage parlour model into a strip club without the functional segregation aspect. I’m not saying it’s easy, but it’s not a stretch to find patron support for a diversity of erotic interactional transactional entertainment. It’s a matter of worthwhile volume. It’s all somewhat moot because Junior’s establishment going under doesn’t affect me. And my proposal is not going to materialize. And then there were 3 …

A turista in Rio was itchy for willing male boîte no boate. Garotos in Bangu, though cute butts in full view, scoffed ‘no este boite we bang you.

… Perhaps two versions of a portmanteau for boa noite, slang-ish for nightclub.

I discovered a few years ago that one of the reasons Sauna Casa Grande (formerly Sauna Bangu), mainly a Sunday afternoon/evening venue, has an elusive social media presence is that it sometimes substitutes ‘i’ for ‘a’ in its nightclub name. https://instagram.com/boitecasagrandeoficial?utm_medium=copy_link
