These "awards" by Trip Advisor were based solely on reviews posted to its website during 2023. A snapshot of a relatively small sampling of travelers worldwide spread across the year, and of those who read that website.

Welcome to the forums. Don't let a troll ... bully you out of here. Give it some time for participants to offer meaningful comments / advice - point you in the right direction. If you haven't spent the time to read through the many archived discussions, some of which answer newbie questions, please do so.

When we (from the USA) previously had to obtain the 5-year visa to visit Brazil it was a minor hassle, but I don't think the requirement deterred anyone from the various gay forums or gay community from visiting. Over the years, I've had to obtain tourist visas in advance to visit some countries in addition to Brazil; includeig the USSR and China. I'd like to re-visit both, one day. Spontaneously deciding to travel to where the in-advance visas are required is an option that'll disappear for some who are newbies to the process. For me, someone who typically has a 10-day trip length timeframe, r/t airfares this USA Winter to Rio from where I fly out of are approx. $1,800 - too high for me to justify when added to other travel costs.

Stephen Miller might best be compared to Otto Adolf Eichmann.

More likely than not, a year from now Donald J. Trump will have been judged guilty of multiple crimes, be incarcerated ... and will have more than enough time to talk old times with the other America-haters who have been convicted or who've admitted their guilt.

Donald Trump is a self-admitted rapist.

Starsky & Hutch ... brings to mind Brokeback Mountain. David Soul is another TV personality of that era whom I had a crush on. Yes, RIP. More Information: David Soul, actor best known for his role in the TV series ‘Starsky & Hutch,’ dies at 80 (yahoo.com)

Thank you!

"Sexually active people can get syphilis through vaginal, anal, or oral sex without a condom with a partner who has syphilis." Source: STD Facts - Syphilis (cdc.gov) It seems to me that it's fashionable for (desired by) many in the gay community to have unprotected sex (i.e., without a condom). Someone can give every appearance of being clean but still be contagious. "No other STI combines incurability with near-100% lethality in the absence of treatment as HIV does. But other STIs can have serious health consequences. The bacterial STIs – gonorrhoea, syphilis, chlamydia and chlamydia’s ‘superstrain’, lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), as well as other infections like Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) and trichomoniasis – are generally easily curable but may have serious health consequences in some people if left untreated. Syphilis may also cause serious symptoms in early disease, and drug resistance in gonorrhoea is of considerable concern. Source: PrEP and sexually transmitted infections | aidsmap For a long time now I've thought men on PrEP have been lulled into a sense of security, that it's safe to have any unprotected sex. Not true.

Don't like any of those whom we interact with? Au contraire. The problem is not with them, but with those (of us) who lack the ability to successfully relate to others. It's universal, for sure.

I'm thinking maybe you're not gay, or that you're recently out or young and without much interaction with or familiarity with many gay men. 👁

Ok, I got through the first 7 minutes before shutting it off. He's not an "expat" whose residence is in Thailand, he's a tourist. It's no secret that for certain durations outside the USA many or most health insurance companies reimburse for emergencies. He's not talking about non-emergency care for which he could have purchased, legitimately, health care insurance. He gives off a tone of entitlement, he's going to beat the system. And he just might get caught one day. If this is the type of advice he offers on other videos, count me out as a viewer.

Tommy Smothers died yesterday (12/26/2023). Those of us living in the USA in the 1960s, in particular, will remember him and his brother Dick and their televised music variety show and their strong opposition to the Vietnam War; vocal opposition that prompted CBS to cancel the popular show. The blond hair, blue-eyed Smothers was a former California state high school gymnastics champion (parallel bars). I had a crush on him at the time, with Richard Chamberlain, too. Tommy Smothers was 86. R I.P.

Many do and / or have been in committed relationships for decades, pre-Obergefell (in the USA).

Grindr has some free features but charges for most access. I don't pay but will consider doing so for some foreign travel. Where I live there are too many odd people participating , drug sales or solicitations, etc. I can now view 9 profiles without paying.

No you're not. You're an idiot.

There are degrees of mental illness displayed in contributions to this discussion thread, of that I am certain. Liars, trolls, attention-getters sitting in a recliner at home with nothing better to do but punch-out commentary to social media. And joking or not your post is a clear indication of the seriousness of the problem.
