As I understand it (the gay guys here can correct me if I am wrong), gay men have the easiest sex life ever.

After just eye contact, the event is on . . . since both want to do it all the time anyway.  Kind of like Julia said in 'Pretty Woman.'  "I am a sure thing."

But what about gay women?  Do they have to seduce each other??

Anyway everyone (including me), please stop posting anything about sex.  My Ochka does not return for two more weeks.

Well, you got the job at hand for a sure thing.

[Ooooops]

Rebound - have you heard about it?   It's OK to blow off steam after years of unsatisfactory relationship, but it also can lead in very wrong direction if person in question is a young impressionable one. 

[Ooooops]

Reaction "OMG, Mom, we're NOT f@@@ing."  Big eye roll from said son.

Never a dull moment, ah?   

[Ooooops]

I heard sex is like a hand shake in France.  Pat, is it true?   

Gloved or bare handed?

+ enter the numbers 

I expect steam is going to get blown off regardless. It's the natural order of things in most instances. That really isn't the same thing IMO

Which is normal, we are all living breathing human beings.      But I wouldn't make it a corner stone of my near future...

Depends on how well you know the hand.

Maybe Aloe will make an appearance on "Girls Gone Wild" and catapult her to a new career in film.

[Ooooops]

Yeah...   speaking of which - how do people go barehanded nowadays with all that scare out there?   Exchange recent business cards test results?

Lets hope not.

I heard you can tell the hand is clean by looking at the fingernails.

I just now read this thread. I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry, but methinks laughing is the way to go in light of the content so far...


Yeah, Aloe will be fine and safe in San Francisco. There's nothing but gay guys and Democrats there anyway   


Aloe, send TwoBitBandit a PM. He lives in the Silicon Valley and should only be a hop and skip away from you. Also, do the same with TooTallBill. He lives in the area, I believe. Maybe either of them won't mind showing you around the city....in the cool of the evening....as the waves gently brushes against the shore.....with nothing but the northern breeze and the moonlight shine against the Pacific blue...to warm a tender soul searching for an embrace....kind'a thing, you know.


Anyway, I don't subscribe to online hook-ups (yes, it's never really *dating*), you'd likely have a much better chance meeting a hunk walking the streets of SF. But if you must...TableforSix used to fun. That's when they actually match people up and put together a group of 6 (3 males, 3 females) for dinner. This way there won't be too much pressure by going one on one...I don't know how this is like now unfortunately, but it was a blast when I tried it a long time ago.

Also, try Love.Rambler.ru. I picked SF and the age range you cited - there are hundreds on their site. Hundreds...there's even sexy Veronica, 26, who apparently bats from both sides of the plate. Ooh-la-lah!

Or, you can wait and maybe Jone can take you around southbay's boardwalk...we're in the heat of the summer and the waves aren't all that great so I'm sure the hardbods would have lot's of time for the ladies this time of the year....

You might try lavalife.com they offer different levels of dating, also locations based.
Of course most single US men live in Alaska.

...or North Dakota oil fields.

I think that's the case for gay men in most countries, not just France.

 

Not in Russia any longer, if Russian gays are smart:

Gays had underground clubs in Moscow in the 1970's.  I think if they could survive in the USSR, where homosexuality was a criminal offence (though rarely enforced), they can survive in the Russian Federation.

[Ooooops]

Boethius , have you heard about the new law?

Looks like survival may be problematic:

...and:

An article in the Guardian last January described the homophobic laws as “part of an official drive to promote traditional Russian values as opposed to western liberalism, which the Kremlin and church see as corrupting youth and by extension contributing to a wave of protest against Putin's rule.”

http://www.russianwomendiscussion.com/index.php?topic=16158.msg336016#msg336016

Yes, I have read about the law.  It is backward, but it was worse in Soviet times, and still, there were underground gay clubs at that time (my only point - I am not a fan of any repression).

No more so than in the U.S.

http://www.counterpunch.org/2013/05/28/the-murder-of-mark-carson/

From an article on May 20 of this year -

The brutal slaying marked the 22nd hate crime targeting gays in New York City this year, compared to 13 incidents at the same time last year, New York City Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said, as quoted by Reuters.

I'm sure but was this article about homosexuality being punished by law removed from Russian judicial books?  Or is still there?

[Boethius]

My husband says it is still on the books, on the theory that it was never applied anyway.    But, he could be wrong, he hasn't looked it up.


That law was one of the first repealed in Ukraine, and the press there mocked Russia for keeping it in place.

[Boethius]

A bit of a history lesson from hubby - he says that Khrushchev said the homosexuality law should be applied against priests, and particularly monks.   This was when he was destroying all the churches.  That failed, and it sort of just faded away.


ETA - He also told me he read an article in a Soviet legal journal by "one of those Soviet proletarian lawyers" defending the law, because "homosexuality belonged to the representative of the degraded class of exploiters and so called aristocracy".  It went on to argue that homosexuality did not exist among the working class, so, homosexuals should be eliminated.

I assume this was about Catholic priests, your husband being from West Ukraine? 

[Ooooops]

Topics move in mysterious way...        May be we should do a separate thread about it, because recent posts have little to do with dating sites?..   

[Boethius]

No, this was all priests - weird for Orthodox, as they are married, but part of the commie propaganda.  I think by that time, most of the Catholic/Greek Catholic priests had already been arrested.

My husband's family, on both sides, is from St. Petersburg, but moved to Kyiv, where he was born.  The last "Ukrainian" in his bloodline was a 17th century Zaporizhian Cossack.  When I met him, no one else in his family spoke Ukrainian.  His mother and sister still don't.
