@phoenix2021 said in PREP problem with STD: @paulflying said in PREP problem with STD: PREP problem with STD If you are on PREP and do bareback, then STD has chance. How do you think of that? In the UK, you get PREP prescription every 3 months, which means every 3 months you go the GUM clinic and get tested for STDs. So I find some comfort in that, as when speaking to people about PREP and they are not on it, they sometimes mention they know they are clean, but have never been tested for any STDs or visited a GUM clinic. That's an excellent point: people on PrEP have to visit the Dr (aka clinic) on a regular basis and undergo regular, routine testing - which includes a blanket of STD screenings in addition to HIV - which, if nothing else tells you that someone on PrEP is legitimately aware of their "sexual health"... IMHO, people who say "they're clean" and haven't had an STD screening or an HIV test in over 6-months are self-delusional.... they don't know, and they couldn't know! HIV doesn't present SYMPTOMS for sometimes several years! All the while, you have it and you spread it! In my own personal dating, I'd strongly prefer someone who is either on PrEP or who is poz-undetectible and on HIV meds to someone who is "just winging it"... That's me - and I don't posit it as being for everyone - but, that's my thought process!

@vmalar said in American circumcision: @bi4smooth In a way I get it: If you are a parent you are happy/ecstatic/scared all of that and more and some nurse comes along and asks you 'do you want to circumcise your child?'. And of course! You want the best for your child and it's payed by the healthcare insurance so why not? Yes! you say! I want what's best for my son! There! In that simple arc of a story is where the parent is being EVIL. Did you catch it? You invaded the personal freedom of a new person! The fact that you are his parent does not give you the right to invade/impose on his freedom. That's EVIL. If later on the kid wants to do it. Great! More power to you! You're obviously not a parent What-if that child grows up to be a VEGAN and you've fed them MEAT and DAIRY all through their childhood! EVIL! What if you raise your child a "good Christian" and she turns Atheist at 14? EVIL! You can play what if-s all you want... if you, as a parent, are doing what you feel is best for your child, then you are decidedly NOT EVIL And your self-righteous, judgemental soul can deal with it... and may your God have mercy on your soul!

@blablarg18 said in Abstain or Train for bigger cumshots?: @bi4smooth said in Abstain or Train for bigger cumshots?: they also use drugs (and injections EEK!) to increase the volume Maybe shouldn't ask, but now I am morbidly curious.... what substances would increase the volume? I don't know - I'm not involved in any current-day porn production (as I have said: in the late 1980's I was in a porn flick [or 2], and in the 2000's I was a part-time recruiter [talent scout] as well, but nothing but an illicit consumer these days)... But I do know some current-day porn performers, and they tell me that some studios will LITERALLY inject something (I don't know what, and I cannot - for the LIFE of me - understand why anyone would submit to this) directly into your penis to give you a "better" erection (and, apparently, a move voluminous ejaculate)... I don't know, and I don't WANT to know Ewwww

@vmalar I was skeptical of your question -- until I got the old search engine going, and found that "kegels for men" are indeed quite real, and useful for a variety of conditions or overall male wellness. Kegel exercises work specific muscle groups in the pelvic floor area to help strengthen and tone this region. This helps incontinence and bowel control, but clearly there's an opportunity for new erotic horizons, as well: When doing Kegel exercises, a man will feel his penis “jump” and slightly raise. It’s more visible with an erect penis than a flaccid penis, and you will see and/or feel a slight, upward movement. Gaining more control may also help a man to last longer in bed. So, for anyone with an interest, take a look at the links below. The first three are for reading, and the last is (ahem) a short video clip: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/mens-health/in-depth/kegel-exercises-for-men/art-20045074 https://www.verywellhealth.com/tightening-your-anal-sphincter-796588 https://www.askmen.com/dating/love_tip_60/67_love_tip.html https://www.xvideos.com/video4375191/man_doing_kegels

@clockedin Ah, another person who turned to dota 2. I remember dumping hundreds of hours on that when things were rough. Nothing like having complete strangers on the internet say the worst things over voice chat to make a bad mood worse. Honestly, a nice, calming hobby goes a long way with keeping dark thoughts at bay. People crave a sense of purpose, visible progression, and entertainment to keep their mental state well. A good hobby will help with all of this.

there's a guy who's done this i forgot his username but i'd love to see similar content. i also agree with user flozen

So, this board is titled Health & Fitness. It's designed for members to ask questions and receive tips and advice about wellness -- including gay-focused wellness, hence the HIV & AIDS subcategory. If you're sharing whether or not you sneak a look at guys disrobing or showering in the locker room, it's perfectly fine, but really a discussion related to Voyeurism: https://community.gaytor.rent/category/91/voyeurism ...with long-existing threads such as https://community.gaytor.rent/topic/20805/guys-in-the-locker-rooms ...and https://community.gaytor.rent/topic/39315/public-showers I know there are other threads here that also don't concern wellness, but by making a note of this one, it's a start.

Butt, then abs

Yes i was and roids and take Winstrol Tabs and Testosteron Injections

@andergarcia: Always talk to a doctor. It could be many things, even (depending where you live) the change of the season, the heat from the summer time… But it may be something more serious than simply feeling tired "because of the weather". Making an appointment with a doctor would be the best thing to do to find out what's happening. Considering the author does not say his age, this is likely an apt suggestion.

I'm not sure why this guy did it but he certainly tore down the myth of the healthy weight (or rather the disproportionate emphasis a lot of people put only on weight). You can not be healthy eating only McDonald's!

To gain you are suppose to push yourself. A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that endurance is the way it's not. If you have done a proper high intensity work out you should feel fatigued which is why you then need to rest so you end up only working out 3 times a week.

High intensity is the best work out this can be done in an hour.

It would be great, right?  We all would love to be eating cum all the time, therefore  ;D

@alcrow: Thanks for the fast reply. I will keep doing the exercises, it's still better than doing nothing. I will definitely check out Reddit too. As far as diet is concerned, getting rid of sugar is the hardest part for me, especially when my mom keeps baking one delicious cake and cookie after the other. … I'm trying to restrain myself from eating them though, with more or less success. The pleasure of eating a cookie only exists while you are actually eating it:  looking at it, smelling it, touching it, putting it in your mouth, chewing it, tasting it, swallowing it.  Five minutes later, you have only a memory of eating the cookie.  The memory is pretty much the same whether you ate three small bites or three big cookies. If you only ate three small bites, you don't have the remorse from eating three big cookies.  So if you are very conscious about eating treats, savoring them in small quantities and then deliberately recalling the experience, you will learn to enjoy eating treats in moderation more than in excess. It might also help to go on YouTube and watch some especially disgusting mukbang videos to see how gross overeating is.

I never wear underwear in the summer. Too uncomfortable with all this heat. Shorts are enough 

hahaha, exactly! I never make it to the gym if I jerk off before… @flozen: Jerking off before going to gym… equals... Not always getting to the gym...                  :blink:

I pay 30€ (around 33 dollars) a month (in Madrid) with no facilities apart from the gym thing and some free classes (training, kick-boxing, aerobic, etc.).
