qBitTottent should not be a problem. In fact, there is a HOWTO (a couple years old now) on how to properly configure qBitTorrent for maximum use of this site.

https://community.gaytor.rent/topic/53086/qbittorrent-gt-ru-guide

While this article is mainly focused on fisting for women (vaginal), all of the points are good and valid for anal fisting as well

Top tips:

• Be patient! Don't measure yourself against a porn video!
• LOTS & LOTS of lube! then add more lube!
• Be patient!
• DO NOT USE numbing agents (including lube with numbing agents in them)! Pain is a bad thing and blood is a bad sign! If it hurts, slow down. If it bleeds, STOP for now!
• Be patient! (You don't have to take a full fist the first time!)

Oh, and BE PATIENT!

FWIW: I've been a fisting top since my 20's...

tells your body to stop producing because it's not needed

Not quite: part of the concept, again, is that you're getting laid often (if you wish) with partner(s) IRL.

I did porn in the 1980s - here's what we were told (as actors):

• get off EVERY DAY - preferably 2 or more times! This will "ramp up" your prostate's and testicle's ability and volume of semen production..
• when you're getting ready for a scene, STOP getting off for 48-hours... this will allow the volume to "back up" or accumulate, without telling your body to stop entirely!

I read in an interview once that this is how Bel Ami still trains their models, although they also use drugs (and injections EEK!) to increase the volume.

@raphjd

NO ONE...

NOT EVEN TWITTER!

Thinks this was OK, or that they "Got it right". Their employee was WRONG.

AGAIN: EVEN TWITTER ADMITS THEY WERE INITIALLY WRONG.!

But mistakes are NOT changes in policy!

The only wrong thing here is your hyperbole!

Have you ever peed and, at least for a fraction of a second, missed the bowl? (You know you have! That's why there are urine droplets around the bowl!)....

THAT DOES NOT MEAN that you don't believe in urinating into the toilet! It just means you made a mistake.

Now look at a public toilet... more people, more mistakes!

Let's move on...

@lololulu19 said in Invalid Characters imported from GTRUORG:

I've had a couple of nasty encounters with INVALID CHARACTERS in files grabbed from GTRUORG which corrupt QTM torrents.
I suggest removing all : and " but in this case, the problem was characters that LOOKED like a - but were not. See the two PINK bits.. which resemble a _ but are not
In the list.txt file I created.. they look like this..
HelixStudios - Beach Bums 8 - Wingman - Dawson Grant and Austin Lovett - 720p.mp4
HelixStudios - Beach Bums 6 - Drawing Him In - Travis Stevens & Chase Williams - 720p.mp4.mp4

Someone on that other site SEEMS to have intentionally used invalid characters to mimic valid ones.

There is nothing nefarious here - there are 3 kinds of "dash" character in the full, extended ASCII English character set: a "full dash" and "M-dash" and an "N-dash" - and they are each of varying lengths.

In windows, the only real "dash" (on the keyboard) is actually an "N-Dash" (the shortest of the 3) ... other OS's (like MacOS, Linux, and others) aren't so choosy and allow any of them - but, in spite of looking quite similar, they are separate and distinct characters.

The fix is quite easy: right click on the files your client couldn't create and rename the files. To make sure there are no special characters, type in the full name right off of your keyboard.

Good Luck!

@nf16 said in Adequate penis sizes:

@bi4smooth : With all due respect, the whole "selective breeding" thing is mostly a myth. Even if it were not, there is no evidence that male slaves were bred for penis size. Large-scale studies of penis size have not found any statistical significant differences between black and white penis sizes.

Not so much - being born & raised in the American South, and educated in the 1970's and 80's - when we weren't being so prudish about these things, I was exposed to this information in both HS and college.

The printed flyers (advertisements) from the slave auctions, as well as the documented sales of slaves, often mention their estimated age, precise height & weight, and an "other" category that was PRIMARILY used for their breast or penis size & usually filled in as U for unremarkable, L for large, or XL for extra-large. Sales receipts from the auctions show a clear correlation to the "other" having an L or XL entered to higher sales prices.

NOTE: sometimes the "other" field would have a "H" entered - indicating that they were "household trained" - that is, trained to work inside the owner's home. The field would also sometimes have a number - which was used solely for women, to show how many live children she had birthed - women who had successfully had children were highly prized, as the children were "free slaves".

History aside, remembering that the immigration of dark-skinned people has not abated since the abolition of slavery 155+ years ago, it's fair to say that there has been ample time for the "law averages" to come into play, and the percentage of Black Americans who can trace their ancestry to slaves is decreasing (statistically speaking: they are being diluted). As a result, the differences are "evening out" over time.

That said, many of the "studies" you refer to were flawed on 2 counts:

1. they were run by white men who had an interest in showing that there was no "real" difference - because of an ill-formed belief that a larger penis was somehow "superior" - and they couldn't have a study showing blacks as being superior! If you read the statistical details, you'll see that they "threw out" specimens that were "abnormally large or small"... in other words, they pared down the samples so as to all-but-guarantee the result they wanted!
2. the more modern the sample, the more "diluted" the pool of Black men who are the result of the selective breeding exercise in American slavery.

I've looked for it, but there was a Japanese study from pre-WWII that looked solely at Black American men descended from slaves - and they DID find a statistically significant size difference - in penis length, overall height, and low BMI (associated with muscularity). We saw the study in my college statistics class (these studies were being used to show how filtering, or not-filtering, the source data can be used to skew results), but I haven't found it in my Google searches.

Since this discussion has the potential to get quite ugly, can we please go back to the original topic? Personally, yes, I'm happy with what I have. As a top, I'm perhaps not as concerned about the penis size of my partner as some might be. His ass, on the other hand.....

I agree that the topic could get uncomfortable - but that doesn't mean it should be ignored either!

Again, as a study in American culture: isn't it amazing that it's OK to refer to Asian men's smaller endowments, but not to Black men's larger ones? (Isn't it even MORE amazing that we throw ALL Asians - from Chinese and Japanese and Korean, to Thai, Vietnamese, and Indo-Chinese, to Indian and Pakistani! These are NOT all one "race" of people!)

Personally, I couldn't care less about penis size. My ex-fiance was Black and about 8.5" in length (erect). My current b/f is Vietnamese and is about 6.5" in length (erect)... I fall in between those 2 measurements (I was smaller than my ex-fiance, and I'm slightly larger than my current b/f).... and all of that means didly-squat!

Although, whenever this comes up, I'm reminded of a segment from a live concert by the a cappella group The Flirtations. They have a segment called "One of us," in which they say things like, "One of us was a high school wrestler." One of those statements was, "One of us thinks size matters," at which point, the individual in question piped up, "And the rest of them are lying!"

It is sad, but true - men have been comparing penises pretty much since we realized we had them! One of the things I try to teach my children is that - it is important for your lifelong mental health that you come to terms with, and like your own body: height, complexion, eye color, body-style, hairy or not, large-breasted or small, large penis or small - these are all aspects of your body that are generally (without surgery) unchangeable! Learn to like it, appreciate it, and do not envy others for the body THEY got! It was all an accident of nature... it doesn't make them superior to you in any way... just different!

A related question: when you're reading an online profile hookup site, how much do you automatically subtract from their stated penis length?

That's an excellent question... but, alas, I don't add or subtract anything - because I don't care so much... I'd rather know about their chest and face vs their penis! (I know that's just me - I don't intend to speak for others!)

@vmalar said in American circumcision:

@davis94 Read 'The Banality of evil' by Hannah Arendt in which she discusses the holocaust and how was a society blindly oblivious to the extermination that was going on behind the scenes. What you are asking the gay community is a similar thing. Why?

Really?

Comparing the holocaust to the practice of male circumcision?

Someone has gone off the deep end on this one...

Is it unnecessary? I believe so (Hasidic Jews might disagree)... but "child abuse"? Again: someone has gone off the deep end here.

One of the stated goals of the religious purposes of circumcision is to reduce masturbation - it goes to the absurd religious belief that all sex - outside of that intended solely to procreate - is bad.

Whatever happened to tolerance of people and beliefs that differ from your own?

@raphjd

I have said this before: I am not a Twitter subscriber (nor, do I have a Facebook page).

I am a computer consultant. I know the amount of personal information data mining these companies do!

I also don't search on Google without a VPN and "incognito" mode-browser.
YES! I get blocked on a LOT of sites because I won't give up access to my personal data... so be it!

But that's another target.

What makes me defend Twitter against your out-sized and overblown (truly hyperbolic) accusations is that I am a small business owner - and a computer professional - and I know first hand how damaging your rhetoric would to the stability and usefulness of the Internet as a whole were your ideas to be made into policy and applied in a wide-spread fashion.

@mrker1234 said in You shouldnt use NORDVPN for torrenting anymore.:

@bi4smooth JSYK, I sporadically see an issue with a torrent getting started when SOCKS5 is up. In that case, I make sure the VPN is on and turn off SOCKS5 and once it starts can turn it back on. It isn't often, and not a big deal to me to make sure I have torrent actually started before walking away.
I'm not technical enough to know why even on those torrents it hesitated with, it works fine once downloading. My theory is that is having issue with tracker site, but once stared is dealing directly with the downloader.

I have not been able to get a SOCKS5 connection going in my qBitTorrent... and since what I have works, I'm not really motivated to find out why LOL

I will add one more thing... sometimes, when I tire of the limited countries that have P2P servers available, I'll connect to a "regular" location - and I've never had an issue there either. In fact, if anything, the non-P2P sites tend to be a little faster? I think maybe because Nord is so heavily used for P2P-ers, the P2P servers get more heavily loaded... just my opinion/guess: I have no way of testing that theory without too many other variables...

@DamaDama said in Have you ever been caught masturbating?:

no, not ever because i have always been careful.

Assuming you mean accidentally caught...

I've been "caught" masturbating several times - on purpose tho!

Accidentally? not so much...

Dad Joke:
My Doctor told me I had to stop masturbating!
I asked why, and he said: "because I'm trying to examine you!"

@di3di3di3 said in Get circumcised or not?:

no. never change for anyone. especially not for religious nutjobs . lol

''unclean'' ,...umm did he ever hear of soap and water?

anyways, we arent middle ages now. we have clean running water, soap and access to it 24/7/365. cleaning pennis foreskin etc means its as clean as a circumciced pennis

Imma say this again - by the time you reach adulthood, having YOURSELF circumcised is a purely personal choice.

That said, the results are even more permanent than a tattoo! (There is no putting that foreskin back!)

But, like a tattoo, the purpose is purely visual and personal... if you like it better, cut it!

But also, all of these purported "medical" reasons are pathetic excuses to explain INFANT circumcision, and they are bogus...

@walker1234
Our country demonizes a lot of other countries - especially non "Western" ones.

I have visited "war-torn" Israel and Palestine. I have visited the "evil empire" of Iran. I have visited many parts of Europe and Central America. (I hope to visit South America 2-summers from now... Brazil, Argentina, & Chile are on the agenda so far.)

In the vast majority of cases, the people themselves were, warm, kind, generous (sometimes to a fault), and giving.

Honestly, while we may have our freedoms (which is a Governmental thing, not a Societal one), I personally think Americans in public are some of the coldest, most cruel and uncaring, most judgemental, and self-centered of societies I have encountered in my travels. Get them in private and many are very different (kind, giving, generous, open, etc) - but that's where the societies seem to differ...

• When I got lost in Paris once, I was actually approached by someone offering to help me find my way...
• When I got lost in Iran, a taxi driver took me back to my hotel - free of charge!
• When I got lost in Los Angeles, I had to go to 3 different convenience stores to find someone who would even tell me what part of LA I was in!

(I know - it seems I got lost a lot - but a lot of my traveling predates smartphones and apps to make sure you are NOT lost - EVER!)

@tazns-0 said in Linux:

Good day everyone, I have recently switched from Windows 10 to Linux Mint 20.2. In windows I was using utorrent (v.2.2.1),, because that was the one that would allow me to force seed to maintain my ratio. I am trying to find a good one for Linux. At the moment I am trying KTorrent, Transmision and Deluge. So far they are not seeding.

Any and all help would be appropriated.
With Thanks & Stay Safe

Somewhere on the forums is an article on using qBittorrent on Linux...

@lololulu19

Your premise is off... you cannot "categorize" bisexuals any more than you can homosexuals!

In this forum alone, you likely have men like me, who:

• love smooth men, but not hairy men
• love thin, lithe men and women
• love intelligent, sarcastic, whimsical men and women

I could go on and on - deep into a diatribe into all the different kinds of things men like (or do not like) sexually...

But here's what I've taught my sons:

• Every man is "wired" a little differently - and there is no one, single, "right" way -- although there are many "wrong" ways (pedophilia, rape, public (unwanted) exposure - and others - are indeed "wrong" by our societal norms)
• As a man, you owe it to yourself to explore "how you're wired" - and that means experimentation.
• Fortunately, you have a near-flawless indicator built-in:
  If your penis gets hard, stays hard, and you have an amazing orgasm - it's probably something you're wired for....
  But, if you have to struggle to stay hard, or cannot reach an orgasm (yes, men CAN fake an orgasm!), then you're probably NOT "wired" for that...
  And, if either of these experiences are "repeatable" - then you're getting a good idea about what makes you tick!
• As you learn to "map" your own sexuality, also learn to accept it - because you don't get to choose it, it's just who you are... the earlier you accept this, the happier you will be (at least in your sex-life!)
• Remember though - your "sex map" is not a static, unchanging thing... it can (and likely will) change over time. (For example, at 20 you probably won't find 50 y/o men or women sexually attractive, but 30 years later, at 50, you likely will!)
• Finally: don't overthink it (or over-apply your mapping): if you can't get hard with her, it doesn't mean you're gay - only that you're not into her!

As an aside to readers here: I strongly believe in experimentation - I've known men who thought they were 100% straight - until they had their first m/m encounter! I've also known men who thought they were 100% gay, until they had a sexual encounter with a woman!

Even in the realm of most "kink" - my belief is "don't knock it 'til you've tried it!"

I have known 3 men who were circumcised as adults.

ALL THREE regret having the procedure.

Here in the US, it used to be nearly unheard of for male children to not be circumcised shortly after birth... I WAS!

Today (2021), in this country, it's about 50/50 - the times, they are a changing! Still, most parents who choose TO circumcise say they want their child to "be like their father" or "be like the other children"... to which I say HOGWASH

For one, as the father of 4 boys I can attest that as babies they're not equating that tiny little pee-pee with my much larger, hairy penis... and then, as pre-teens, teens, and certainly as adults, I'm not wagging my dick in front of my children! I honestly don't think any of my children has any idea that I am circumcised! (NONE of them are!)

As for young boys comparing penises, little Johnny is far more likely to care about whether his growing manhood is BIGGER or SMALLER than the others than he is about what the TIP looks like!

There are FEW legitimate medical reasons for circumcision, and some religious ones... but barring one of those, leave your pleasure palace the way God crated it! He did it right the first time, he doesn't need a touch-up!

Finally - the point about the 3 friends (well, 1 friend and 2 ex's): all three reported that sex (especially masturbation) felt VERY DIFFERENT after they were "cut"... not better, not worse, just DIFFERENT. (Again, all 3 regretted their decision to get circumcised as adults.)

YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY but remember this: once you're circumcised, there's no going back!

@raphjd

You have such long term memory loss! You should see a doctor about that!

The "us vs them" and "win everything, or it's not a win at all" ideas started in the 1990s - with Republicans!

By your thoughts (by what I've read here, which I hope is not the totality of your thoughts): when we (Republicans) are in control, we have the power and should rule defiantly and harshly!

But when the inevitable changes in majority happen, and the Democrats are in control, they should defer to our feelings and judgements

Whatever drugs you're smoking, you should share!

And I have little doubt the RNC will work hard to thwart literally every breath Joe Biden takes while in office! It's the way of the 21st Century (and that's a shame - it will IMHO lead to our eventual destruction as a nation. Yes, we will destroy ourselves!! No other nation could do it!)
