I'd rather talk about likes/dislikes, turnons/turnoffs, and boundaries beforehand if either one of us feels it's necessary.  As far as dirty talk, it depends totally on the guy - how they look, how their voice sounds, their "energy" if you will.  With some guys i love it; others it's a struggle not to laugh…or leave.

Don't know if there's a name for this - it isn't edging, as that doesn't require the loss of erection.  I learned this technique in a similar fashion quite a few years ago.  It's also somewhat similar to some of the Eastern Taoist sexual practices and Tantra.  If you want to take it to the next level, try it with an Aneros or other non-vibrating prostate stimulator.

Thanks for reminding me of this series.  I read them as they were released and thought they were excellent as Fantasy which had gay characters, as opposed to most of the trashy gay romance that's churned out.  Mercedes Lackey is a well-known and respected author in the Fantasy and Sci-Fi genres.  I look forward to re-reading these in a single sitting.

+1 Flinxxx.  You pretty much nailed 99% of what's out there.

I've spent the past decade searching out gay literature as opposed to gay erotica, gay romance, and the all-too-common poorly written gay novel.  I think I just figured out what my upload niche here will be - thanks man.

Thanks for the welcome guys.

I shave my hole, trim my pubes, and leave my chest alone.  I enjoy both hairy and non-hairy men equally and agree if you have it you should keep it.

I've been on-site for 3 days and finally decided to brave the forums.  This place is truly amazing - thanks for letting me in.

Someday, sure.  Not just yet though, as I don't feel I've been smoke free long enough not to fall back into old habits.
