Rio de Janeiro Reports

[HarvestBoi]

Yes, all this is true. From what I understand, historic Testosterone levels are dropping across the age spectrum. So when your doctor says your T level is normal, you might want to challenge him on whether that was normal 20-30 years ago for your age bracket. (Sad, that our young men have 30% lower T than previous generations. There are some theories out there that don't meet our politically correct standards so they are not discussed.).

So does anyone have any experience they want to share about boosting testosterone through medical or other means? Assuming I could get a doctor to diagnose me with low T (probably not too hard, especially outside the US), there are hormone shots. Reports I've seen make it seem like just the thing to address these issues. Just like steroids really do make you a better athlete. But the idea of using a hormone for a 'recreational' purpose is weird. Then there the long term health issues but if using T works as good as they say, would getting PC 10 years earlier be worth it? Not an easy choice.

There is absolutely no reason to walk around Rio with a backpack

So what am I supposed to carry my condoms, lube, babywipes, charging cable, water bottle, hot sauce, sheet if I go to VM, etc in? Don't think I have ever been around Rio without a backpack in 17 years.

That's a bit broad generalization about being out at night. Most of being safe in Brazil depends on where and when.

Of course it is. Anything on the topic of safety in an urban environment is a broad generalization. There will always be one yahoo who walked around Rio wasted out of his mind without encountering any trouble.

As a general in a Brazilian city, take a taxi or Uber to get from point to point even if it looks like an easy walk at a reasonable time of night. There are a lot, lot more muggings than the USA. While generally muggers want your money and stuff, a confrontation can easily escalate.

There is absolutely no reason to walk around Rio with a backpack, expensive watch or necklace.

However, an important factor too is lower testosterone levels as we age. It doesn't just impact our erections, it impacts penile sensitivity and longevity as well. Obviously there are pharmaceutical methods of dealing with this, but there are also natural methods to boost your T that have a lot to do with serious lifestyle changes. Factors that erode our body's production of T over time are not enough quality sleep, stress, lack of exercise, bad diet, being overweight, smoking and excess drinking. All the usual things that plague men's health also erode your T levels. Cutting back on sugar to reduce belly fat is important, as that particular pocket of fat is destructive to testosterone levels. Lifting weights regularly and focusing on certain nutrients will increase your T. Consider how we lived differently when we were young, and how we developed bad habits as we got older while our Testosterone levels naturally slope off and its throwing gas on the fire.

Well, I am pleased to report (with more detail latter) that yesterday I spent time with two lovely ladies of Brazil. On the first, a good ole fucking did the job and latter, the same day about 7 hours latter, in a 69 CIM position. I was, and still am, quite pleased! As for the reason, who knows? But I can think of several.

1. Switching to Cialis only, but with full 20 MG rather than usual 1/2 dose with some 1/4 dose (25 MG) of Viagra. Note, I have also tried Viagra only and that did not help. I think the full strength Cialis, while not quite giving me the raging hard on of Viagra, works better than 1/2 of Cialis as far as hardness without the inhibition effect of Viagra.

2. Sex begets sex. Being in Brazil, and seeing a different lady or two every day helps get the hormones flowing. The primal urge to be the alpha male and spawn your offspring, or something like that. I don't know but I am feeling more "randy" now than I did after my first day here.

3. Natural body cycles. I know that as I have aged, my desire for sex, while always there, waxes and wanes over the year without any apparent reason. Sometimes, I really want to screw just about any reasonable and think of sex a lot, and at other times, quite content to read a book and sex is not on my mind at all. Point 2 here may have also kicked this off. All I know is that I know my wallet is going to suffer greatly this last week for my little head is taking over.

How do you negotiate 300 reais with a person you have never seen? Maybe that is why I haven't done much "blind" P4P. If she comes and looks different or there is something off about her like her teeth are fucked up or breath is bad or it is not the same person then what? Maybe 100 reais I could do something blind, but for 300 I would have to have the person in front of my face to check out first. And then to pay for something that you didn't partake in. Or did she lower the price back since you didn't do anal?

No, from my previous report I had already been with her and knew what I was getting.

Rule 1 in Brazil: don't walk in the streets with a backpack (or a watch, or a neck chain).

Rule 2 in Brazil: don't walk the streets at night (especially alone).

That's a bit broad generalization about being out at night. Most of being safe in Brazil depends on where and when. First, it gets dark around 18:00 local all year. Many bars and even restaurants don't open open till after that. You have to go out at night or just be a shut-in. I have been out at night to quite late, even walking the streets. But I am in Copa and am sticking to larger, busy streets with people around. Now, maybe those same streets at 2 or 3 in the morning might not be safe. As usual, use common sense, stay in public areas, walk fast like you know were your going, and like you stated, don't have anything that looks valuable on your person.

On the weekends during holidays or high season I have seen the wait up to 8 hours. People who had reservations made online walked right on to the cable car as they arrived. Best time to go is during the week or early in the morning. Recently when I went with a group I hired a driver to drive me to the top and wait for me, it's more cost effective with a car load.

The first 3 times I went the driver took us to the top. Last time the Uber just dumped us out at the cable cars at the bottom, so I figured they no longer drove up to the top. Could have saved my girlfriend 150 reais!

[Rio Bob]

I have been up there 4 times and never had to buy tickets in advance. You just go to the ticket booth and buy for the next car available. You might have to wait an hour or whatever, but you don't have to buy before you get there. I think it was like 75 reais when I went October last year.

I've used many escorts through the years and if I'm staying in an apartment or hotel I usually wait for them in the lobby if it's at night or outside in front of the building during the day. When they show up I introduce myself and if they're not to my liking I tell them sorry but you're not my type and usually give them taxi fare to go back home. Works all the time no issues.

Right now I'm in Brazil. It is my last day so I will give you guys a full detail report. But I can tell you about Centaurus. I have been going to Brazil since 2010, and This year was my first time going there. I can tell you its a upscale termas but the quality is way below 4 x 4 and the price is ridiculous. If you have money to burn go to Centaurus, Most of the girls are harden pros, As soon as you walk in. You have girls trying to push you to go upstairs to the room. I have been mongering a long time and the first rule when going to a termas is never pick the first girl that comes to you. They are usually wack and they do not get customers, which is the reason why there so pushy and hungry to go upstairs to make money. I will have more details on my full trip report.

So there's not high level girls unfortunately (I ever found out 2/3 gems in the past). Anyway, I have to visit 4 X 4 and Solarium.

Thank you for your answer!

DC.

Are you sure about this? Watching porn makes me want to have sex more. Not watching porn will cause me to have less sex.

The science is just developing. As with anything with the brain YMMV. I find that I get very horny if I don't watch porn for a few weeks. Let's face it if you are on your laptop, access to porn is just a couple clicks away. Some developing science suggests that searching through clips and looking at dozens of dozens women fucking on film desensitizes us. We need hotter and hotter women that meet our particular tastes to get excited. '.

If one has issues ejaculating, it's worth a shot (pun intended).

[Mr Enternational]

I began research on getting to Cristo Redentor and found out her plan to take uber their was not going to work since you have to buy tickets in advance.

We negotiated a bit back and forth to 300 which included taxi and anal. Not a bad deal for two hours with a pretty hot girl, so I agreed.

I don't know CageMonkey or anyone else on this board. Here are some things to try if you have difficulty ejaculating which can be caused by decreased penis sensitivity:

1. Stop watching porn for a month. (Porn desensitizes the brain to the presence of hot pussy. Mental desensitization).
