Regarding the "no blacks" discussion: One statement I keep seeing on the dating site I'm using is "Only hetero-like guys, no faggots". Jesus Christ.. I don't even know what to say to that.

Yeah, that speaks to internalized homophobia within the gay community. Here they usually say "masc only", but the meaning is the same. Really sad to see. I wish people were more open to treating people as individuals instead of items on amazon.

I wonder, do lesbians deal with a similar thing, like women who only want to date "feminine" women?

Probably. Seeing as how "butch" women get shit on a lot.

What the fuck is this shit.

WHY.

Sounds like internalized homophobia to me. I'll just never understand stuff like this.

After finishing Stranger Things, it made sense to move on to the Scream TV series. For all their differences, they are season-long mystery-drama-horror stories and are a good match.

Love the effort in your response CB, you tried tho.

Me: Hey
Guy: No blacks
Me: I'm sorry, didn't realize I was talking to a bathroom sign from 1960's Alabama.

Then we went back and forth until I realized he's hopeless.

Why the fuck would I waste my time messaging a guy who says "no blacks" in their profile? That you even considered that shows this isn't a thing you have to deal with.

Dude could have very easily said "not interested" or not replied at all, but for some reason he decided that my race alone discounts me as a person.

I didnt get Zika when it was happening here so I guess it works ¯_(&#12484_/¯

It's very possible to have had Zika without any symptoms. And when you have them they are incredibly mild, and they go away in a couple of days.

People greatly have exaggerated the Zika scare, you should only really worry if you are a pregnant woman.

Those scientists at the CDC aren't just giving into internet paranoia when they recommend against holding the Olympics in Zika invested Brazil.

Most normal people don't do destination weddings. &#128133;&#127998;&#128133;&#127998;&#128133;&#127998;&#128133;&#127998;

Also do I wanna know what a Cleveland "escort" looks like?

It’s been a great week for gay escorts in Cleveland.

Male prostitutes contacted by The Post said business is booming and Republican National Convention attendees — most of them married — are clamoring for their services.

[Deleted member 465307]

I haven't seen the CDC's warning, but I imagine one of the concerns with hosting a huge international event in a country with Zika is that you run the risk of greatly spreading the virus around the world as people get bitten, infected, and then infect others back home. So even if there aren't a lot of pregnant or pre-pregnant women attending the Olympics, it could spread to many more populations (and pregnant woman) around the world after all is said and done.

Now that I think about it...if Zika were a little bit more deadly, hosting the Olympics in a country where there's a "quiet" and slow but deadly disease spreading around would almost be the perfect way of starting a pandemic and wiping out a lot of the human race.

Good thing Zika's not worse!

Regarding the "no blacks" discussion: One statement I keep seeing on the dating site I'm using is "Only hetero-like guys, no faggots". Jesus Christ.. I don't even know what to say to that.

That's absolutely heinous, but I guess it's as good a place as any to delve into a discussion regarding "types" and what people are attracted to. How do you distinguish between gay guys that are drawn and attracted to conventionally masculine guys vs gay guys that project self-hate and put down effeminate guys? Is there even a line or distinction? I'd like to think there is cause masculinity and femininity is a vibe and ...uh...aura I guess that extends beyond just physical looks (though looks are a huge aspect too.)

The one argument that pops in my head is that if someone endured social pressures and still came out as a gay man, he's attracted to men, so it'd make sense that he wouldn't feel drawn to guys that don't necessarily fit the gender norms or maybe tilt a bit more towards the feminine side. But, I feel like it's easy to take this as license to shoehorn guys into a box regarding how they're allowed to be and exclude anyone not "heteronormative."

2 cents? I keep going back and forth on this and don't know how to reach a satisfactory conclusion.

Uhh, what? When it comes to sexy things, people pay for EVERYTHING and EVERYONE. I don't think there's a single person out there who doesn't match a large number of people's random fetish or "type." But I will grant you that the further you are from the typical "attractive" norms, the smaller your audience pool will be, which may not be a problem on the internet but could be an issue for locally limited escort services.

Thanks! I never felt more comfortable with what's in my capacity. I had a Patient pad unfortunately, but my preceptor and I knew it was going to happen. My preceptor was so good preparing me to potential outcomes of my pt. My patient was so close for cpr but mom said DNR, so we stopped.

No you wouldn't. There's a reason the past few HIV scares in the porn industry came from performers that escorted on the side. It's not a safe profession.

I seriously hope that was sarcasm. The reason escorts end up getting HIV and any other STD's is because most clientele expect bareback and will often pay more for those that do so it's become a standard. Escorting is not safe plain and simple.
