Posted March 14, 2020 I'm keeping my fingers crossed in hopes that the out of control public panic does not have a big negative impact on the ladies here. I'm very concerned that there will be a fairly long very lean time for them. Everything imaginable is shutting down, cancelling etc. The panic buying at Costco...Walmart etc is utterly insane. Colossal financial losses are already piling up in every sector. Fear of meeting a lady who might have the bug, and or tightness of finances feels like a result of the irrational mass panic. I am hoping that it does NOT impact the hobby. and wish all you ladies best of luck and health in crazy time. 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 14, 2020 Rather than wishing luck and health (kinda like thoughts and prayers ... nice but usually no apparent effect!) ..................... maybe do something! Like continue seeing ladies, especially favorites and reputable ladies. I see no harm in asking to be sure she has no cold etc. Again, not talking about total unknowns off STG etc. Also, guys, the guvmint is supposedly going to extend unemployment etc. allegedly to offset worker bee loss of income. Sadly it will not cover sex workers. But the advice is avoid sick people and crowds. I do not know about the rest of you but my performance is not good enough to draw a crowd ..... it is a two person show. I am not going to see her if I am ill and I trust she will tell me beforehand if she is. The guys who can afford to need to keep seeing ladies (yes, I am, as many as budget allows!!) or the ladies may not be around when all this is over. And with truly legit, known faves ..... there is nothing wrong with offering to pre-pay and seeing later after this shit peaks, but it could help a few ladies get thru this shit. Or an extra large tip for those you do see. This is a tight but isolated community. Please try to help each other out, because no one outside the community is going to. Last thought ......... I do not think you can get corona from having your dick sucked unless you touch your face with it afterwards. Wash that doggie before and after, enjoy, help a lady out!!! Anyway, the point is rather than just trolling, denying, panicking, etc. try and think of what you could do to help a lady or two. Just my two cents. Carry on. 16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 15, 2020 For the statisticians out there, it's all about flattening the curve. That means keeping large crowds dispersed. Two people in a private home do virtually nothing to expand the threat. BBJs don't spread the virus, right? Please say that's true. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15, 2020 The problem is that the "experts" do not know when an infected person becomes contagious. The incubation period for the virus has been measured by the only study of COVID-19 so far, as 5.1 days, but there are anecdotal reports of an incubation period of up to two weeks. (Incubation period is the time from the infection event until the patient begins to experience symptoms like fever, cough, shortness of breath, etc.) However, the CDC cannot say when an infected person becomes contagious. When someone is contagious, they are called a 'carrier' of the virus. The risk is from an asymptomatic carrier of the virus coming into contact with healthy people before anyone is aware that the carrier is contagious. This is the risk of getting close to another person, no matter how well the two of you manage your hygiene -- the risk that they are an asymptomatic carrier. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 16, 2020 I truly feel for the providers who may be seeing appointments drastically decrease (as I've had almost all my assignments for the next two months cancelled, so any visits for me are off the table for quite some while.) I wonder -- for their sake -- if there was a way for folks who can still afford to engage, but chose (wisely) not do, to "pre-pay" as gr8owl suggest? Maybe folks can arrange with their ATF or similar trusted companions for a non-expiring gift certificate? Perhaps a provider could offer a discount! (I know, I know...dangerous territory discussing rates.) Just a thought... Good luck everyone. Wash your hands and follow the latest recommendations from the CDC/WHO. (Seriously, do it.) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 16, 2020 Friday's WSJ reported an incubation period of up to 25 days while being asymptomatic, which is a troubling and complex scenario for an event that's going logarithmic -- if that's true, your only chance of avoiding the virus is the total number of people with whom you're within six feet of. And how many people they've been within six feet of, and so on. So it's a numbers game -- you're far less likely seeing a provider who self-isolates and sees her close family and a few clients than, say, going to a bar/any gathering where people are sedentary and the virus is highly communicable. Or passing people in Walmart who're hoarding TP... Of real interest in that article was the death rates in Korea Vs. Italy. Korea has it down around 0.2% while in Italy it was (I think) up in the middle single digits. Italy's population is aged, modern medical care broke down and they note, heavily, the predication of Confucian-based societies (Japan, China, Korea) to follow authority. Vs. Western independence. Our "F-U government" attitude of going our own way will probably work against us. Attached is the best article I've seen on what to do given the likelihood of exposure -- which I'm not personally very worried about. Vegetarian (so lotsa veggies and fruit), athlete (the old "you have to sweat out a cold" thing seems true) and non-smoker/drug user and I (this was hard!) quit drinking for the race season a month ago... I think if I were over 65 I'd self isolate given, even in Korea, the 1% mortality rate for the elderly. Under 55? Healthy? Non-smoker/no COPD/no autoimmune? Forty-to-80% chance of contracting it, then about the same chances of mild, if any, symptoms... ...of course my lassie-faire attitude of just lacking the good common sense to not do dangerous things lead me to a lifetime of extreme sports, volunteering in third-world (one where there was a Dengue Fever outbreak) countries and being a provider. None of which have led to injury or disease so kinda self-promulgating on the acceptance of danger... Anyway, I'd love to hear other peoples' opinions on this -- especially for posterity's sake -- it'd really suck if I'm totally wrong and contract and react badly to C-19! Especially those that think I/we'all are playing Russian Roulette with out health. PS -- I wonder if telecommuting will reduce the 37K auto deaths per year enough that we have a net safety increase in 2020? CV19.pdf 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 17, 2020 I was hoping to stir a bit more conversation about helping ladies out as this whole thing tightens up more and more. So, a few more things to consider: Many ladies have OnlyFans or Patreon, or SnapChat or other ways to exchange (perfectly legally!) pics and other content for $$. If you do not feel safe visiting ladies, fine ..... consider subscribing if they have such creator profiles on similar sites. What else are you going to do if you cant go to work or bar and are afraid to see ladies? Indulging in the above apps with one or more lady could both pass the time and most importantly help the ladies out. There are many options, just keep in mind mandatory sick leave, extended unemployment, and pay roll tax schemes, etc. ...... none of it is going to help the ladies. This community should ..... just my opinion. Hoping to achieve a thought worth of a dime!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 17, 2020 Staying healthy and active is great advice for all of us...physically and mentally. Just want to bring up we need to be extra careful not to schedule with our at risk gents during this time. We also need to reach out to those high risk gents and see if there's anything they need...besides a bj😂 All of us need to do our part and keep this virus out of our community. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 17, 2020 Pre-paid dates now mean the world to many of us...as we don't want to risk community spread. Also, even jobs that we may have had outside of companionship may be gone now.. (roof over heads, food on the table) but even small tokens like gift cards (grocery, Amazon, Groupon (self care) to an email (gents...even $20-$50 means a lot right now) can be a bright spot in a day) Buy p411 points sent to a lady you admire. ...because with the increased rates and no clients coming out due to COVID concerns.....and no $...even livelihood of TOB owners will be affected with lack of advertising ladies. It's a trickle down effect. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
