General Info

[QUOTE=Brazil Specialist]I am not sure if I should respond and waste valuable space on needless discussion.

I replied to voyager's post about the same girls charging different prices depending where they were. Help was a special high price space, like Barbarella. I explained that Help was very special in that the same girls were, and especially now ARE available for cheap cheap money elsewhere.

As I always said, you don't get what you pay for: Help girls usually were NOT high class model college middle class girls who actually can ask such prices from Brazilians. One girl I helped to get out of a R$ 20 place immediately got R$ 400 for one hour programs from Brazilians (through a luxury pimp, of course). But she was a college girl, ex business owner, blonde, tall, etc.

By the way, if some of you guys have too much money, I get always pestered by an agency that has TV, Playboy etc bunnies. Probably from R$ 500 to 5000 and more, and more interesting for Brazilians as you would not even know that the girl is famous.

The fact that Help has closed does not change the argument, neither does it change much about the fact that I did not go inside for 10 years.

But please, let us stop this. More useful discussions.


ask your airline. Stopover privileges are expensive unless you are on a very high priced tariff. Just saw that other people have other info, so please do your research and report back to us if the stopover can be done easily and how.

If you just walk out in São Paulo, say good bye to your luggage that goes to Rio. And there might be other contractual agreements preventing you from stopping early and getting out.

* Try a 3 way flight
your city to Sao Paulo
leave Sao Paulo Rio open and buy
Rio to your city.

* More likely you have to buy
your city to Sao Paulo return ticket
and get 2 separate one way flights from Sao Paulo to Rio
Should be ok, fairly cheap and easy and ok to buy on the spot except on rare extremely important holliday dates

but you will have trouble with customs, checkin, and luggage allowance
for example you might have to be in Sao Paulo 3-4 hours before the departure of your return flight, and re-check your baggage, etc ...........

Brazil only gives 23 kg luggage allowance, but if you prove direct international connection you should be ok. On the other leg where you did a stopover, be prepared to pay extra for luggage.[/QUOTE]

You are right about the luggage allowance, however I no longer trust the scales for GOL. When I left the states my bag was weighed at 46lbs. (23 kg). When I was leaving Rio for Fortaleza GOL weighed my bag as 32kg. I had to pay R70 extra!

Do not worry about the peanut gallery. Your reports are as always informative and quite entertaining. Do not let some misguided lurkers deprive the rest of us of you sharing your knowledge and experiences. They definitely have added tremendous value to this forum as a true monger's resource tool. Just pay them no mind and trust me, they will just disappear.
[QUOTE=Christopherd]I probably shouldn't bother replying as a) I have a legal background and you apparently don't, or aren't familiar with the law on this area; b) I post photos and you apparently don't; c) I'm quite familiar with how basic watermark programs work and usually write about something more pertinent, such as finding women, putting photos in photos threads and photo chitchat in photo chitchat threads - all of which you apparently don't.

This is the first batch of photos I have watermarked in ISG. The reason, should you have the faintest interest, is to dissuade trolls who don't post their own original material from taking the photos and posting them on other sections under other countries, passing them off as their own genuine experiences. This has been a reported problem on a number of forums in ISG.

One thing you are right about and that is your post will encourage me to post less pictures, or possibly none at all on the Brasil section. The usefulness of photos is debatable at best, and time-consuming. As I said, it's to help people who actually go out in the field and report to get an idea of the quality/type etc of a country or area - I've often posted a host of very graphic shots as well but that would have been an entirely secondary perk, and not primarily for picture-collectors such as yourself maybe (looking at your back posts).

Perhaps posting photos is better reserved for forums that haven't deteriorated into chitchats and critiques by people who don't post reports. The one photo you moaned about, out of what is the largest contribution of photos of recent days, didn't have your w*nk area fully obscured by the watermark anyway. I am surprised that your imagination has so little exercise when it is such a great source of pleasure to you.

I believe there are a great number of techie forums in the Internet - why not offer your techie-for-dummies advice in there where it might, might, even be welcomed by the even less fortunate?

[note to ISG supporters - this is a photo thread and I loathe to rant without including photos in the post - much of my posting is from a mobile phone and doesn't let me include pics. When I get a moment on a PC, I will try to remember to add some pics to this or a subsequent post that may be useful to people who use the forum as intended etc etc etc.][/QUOTE]

Thanks for your kind comments, Voyajer1. However, as you can see from the flak on the photo thread, it really isn't worth the bother . . .

46 lbs is 21 kg. divide by 2 minus 10%

32 kg is such a blatant mistake, there is something wrong.

But 46 lbs is fairly light luggage. You should have tried another scale.

I suspect you did not pay attention to weighing in the US. 32 kg is 70 lbs. Or you put it wrong on the scale in the US, half outside the scale.

Or they added 25 lbs of drugs to your luggage while it was in transit. Something is very wrong.

[QUOTE=Perkele]Please do share this lock information.[/QUOTE]

Guess Brazilian pricing is probably triple the US pricing.. If you can find out, let me know. I always bought in Brazil, prices are scary.

They have an interesting lock, where you get a set of 3 keys. If you insert key 2, they cancel key1 automatically. so if key1 gets stolen, you insert key 2 and just go along with life.

Most of the info on this board seems to state that the lower end termas and massagem's in centro are closed over the weekends. Is this true for the Copa area as well. What about VM? What's a poor monger to do if he is in a hotel that does not allow Girl's and is on a limited budget?

Closer to Copa, there's a small one in Lagoa Machado, on the same street to the right of the big Church that you see when you exit the Metro.

Saturday is one of the busiest days and tends to be pretty crowded by 10pm until the early hours. Sunday mornings don't seem worth the trip to VM if I'm staying in Copa. Centro or closer I'll happily roll in for a look.[/list][list]Centro lower end termas have limited opening at weekends that varies, and generally less girls working. North Centro often has a few still open when the main ones are shut, but after mid-afternoon they are few and far between.[/list][list]Copa doesn't have much in the way of lower end termas; the mid-range cheapies sometimes open at the weekend.[/list]

[color=gray][I]in answer to your question but should probably be on Rio de Janeiro thread - my apologies[/I][/color]

IF a bug bites you in the anus when you are having sex on a disease riddled mattress and you get sick can you sue VM?

[QUOTE=Manute Bol]IF a bug bites you in the anus when you are having sex on a disease riddled mattress and you get sick can you sue VM?[/QUOTE]

No. But if this happens before 2012 you won't even be able to be treated under the National Health Care system. You should either bring your own mattress cover or cover your ass. :)

The question of comparisons comes up every so often - a bit pointless as it's never like for like - but for those like me who strangely enjoy such things, here's what I've been paying this year (for anyone who actually likes my posts, you can find tearly all the reports by backtracking thru my posts list). Regards, C

Brasil from £7 up to £60
Argentina from £5 to £32
Australia £90 (massage & hj)
Philippines from £9 to £20
Singapore £45
Cambodia £17-£34
Scotland £50-£80

Thailand £6-£51: from 1 pop SW urchin or SW cutie to all night and half of next day (12 hours or so) club or a-gogo girl.

Like you said, it is never comparing apples to apples. But I find that the best service and least hassles (Brasil, Argentina, Australia, Singapore, Thailand) comes from a Thailand club girl or SW. There is nothing like having an all night GFE without discussing price first, putting £20 next to her purse when she is in the shower and she comes and sees it and thanks you from the bottom of her heart.

Yes, you can sue; however, the defendant will successfully argue that you assumed the risk, which is an affirmative defense. :)
