Thank you for your insight. What advice would you give potential tourists on how to maintain personal safety? Any tips perhaps on what to wear, carry on or where in theses 2 cities to go and/or avoid?

Not doubts really just interested in getting insight from a local Brazilian gentleman on what makes Brazil a unique destination, in S America, for visiting tourists who wish to meet men there. All things being equal do you think that Brazil would offer a good starting point for visitors who never visited S America before?

As a Brazilian wouldn't you be in a better position to provide insight on Brazil and what it offers so that it may be comparable to either Colombia or DR?

Well said indeed.

The irony is that CG pilot survived while all the rest of the plane's 5 crew died. Still it would make the investigators job easier now that they have the pilot to give his testimony.

Your vocabulary is admirable.

As far as I am concerned the cabin crew conducted themselves wonderfully. Yes it was their job and duty to evacuate the plane but a job well done deserves praise and recognition if for nothing more than to motivate them and all cabin crew in JAL's fleet to strive for excellence and maintain their dedication.

According to the news the Japanese Coast guard aircraft was protruding in the landing strip, or it's nose anyway. It should not have been this close to the landing area. Either the control tower or the pilot of the Coast Guard plane, who by the way survived, somebody must have committed a catastrophic human error that led to this accident. I'm sorry for the lives of those lost and am thankful for the survivors.

"And while there are some hygiene measures you can take to reduce your chances of contracting an STI......." That is what I said. Would you like to give a guy a blowjob if his ***k is unwashed? Or eat Ass when it hasn't been cleaned? Washing up with soap reduces the amount of pathogens on your body, reduces the probability of you falling ill and makes you more attractive in general.

The cabin crew maintained their calm and evacuated the passengers out of the aircraft in a professional manner. Their dedication and bravery should be recognized and rewarded. They saved lives and are the true Heroes in this terrible accident.

Horrible thing to happen coming on the heels of the new year but I'm very thankful that everybody on board made it out safely. I wish everybody safe and happy trips, be well you all.

Scrubbing yourself clean not to the point of tearing skin does indeed remove bacteria and other pathogens living there, not all of them and certainly not the resilient ones but most. I do not claim to be a medical professional but I fail to see how maintaining a personal hygienic regiment would lead to any sort of real trouble health-wise or otherwise. If it is your preference to not clean yourself diligently then that is your prerogative.

I didn't say prevent infection but the perhaps reduce the chance of infection. Personal hygiene may not protect a person completely from contracting some STIs but it sure does prevent you from getting sick from other infectious diseases. Being physically clean won't harm you. Besides it's aesthetically attractive.

A very Happy New Year to the Admin and members of this forum. 🌹🌹🌹 Hope you have peace and love and happiness!🙂

To be on the safe side one must be on Prep, wear condoms for every sexual encounter, and practice personal hygiene. These steps are imperative if you care about your personal health as well as that of the person you're having sex with. Common sense really. Be safe and well everybody.
