I guess I'd have to say Tootsie Pop, because I like finding out how many licks it takes...

So...apparently Gerald Butler can crack a walnut with his butt:

What would be my ideal session length? Three hours to overnight sounds like a dream. What is my typical session length? An hour. I definitely agree that an encounter is better when there's time to get to know each other, flirt a bit, and built some rapport. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to indulge in longer sessions at the moment. Just another reason to appreciate Cerb, I suppose. Since there's usually a fair bit of time between encounters for me, getting to chat with a lady here and read her thoughts lets me feel like I already have some sense of her (and often gets the blood pumping!) in anticipation of an actual meeting. It's hard to join in dozens of thread conversations and still feel like a person is a total stranger, after all.

Nicely done. Keep the great posts coming!

Like others, I'd be tempted to throw out the sex answer, but then, I also find that's a good activity for snowy days, sunny days, cloudy days... So I'll go with reading. I find it so relaxing to grab a drink, relax on the couch, and enjoy a good book. The sound of the rain makes a nice background. I'll also admit to losing more time than I should browsing online (it's actually a little scary how easy it is to lose time on this site!), watch some downloaded shows (I like to get a whole season and go through it in chunks) or catch up on a computer game.

Yeah, I'd also be OK if this caught on...

Admittedly, some costumes are a bit sexier than others... :)

Hmm, that's tricky. My initial thought is that 'd be entirely uncomfortable. After all, it's a natural instinct to want to do better and get genuine feedback. And doing so is, indeed, generally good business sense. Thinking about it though and being honest, I guess it would depend on the type of feedback I was being asked to offer. Depending on the topic, I would probably worry that I may end up saying something that would unintentionally offend, and so I'd probably stick to discussing aspects that were done well and emphasize the positive. Making suggestions or discussing things that could be improved seems like...treacherous territory. :) There's an extra tricky aspect to gathering feedback in this particular endeavor. More so than with most things, people's opinions, preferences, and suggestions are going to be much more personalized. What I mean is, for each person that gives feedback in one direction, there's going to be another person that prefers it the opposite way. For every change you make you're as likely to turn away as many people as you attract. So keep in mind if you do start asking for feedback, that just because a person suggests something doesn't mean you should automatically make a change unless you decide you agree with the assessment and are more comfortable with it. It seems to me that, generally speaking, you're best off focusing on your own style and way of doing things and letting those that appreciate it gravitate to you, rather than trying to change yourself to fit another's expectations. None of which is to say you shouldn't feel like you can ask your questions. Just that it's probably best to only do so if you're comfortable shifting through it to decide what feedback works for you. Hope that fits what you were asking! (if not, you can take my above advice and ignore it. ;) )

A little late, but congratulations and thanks for all the contributions.

I have a question that seems appropriate to use this thread for. It's apparent that many ladies offer the use of their shower before or after (or during!) an encounter. It also certainly seems fairly common that some work went into preparing the bathroom. That is (and I'm sure many gents appreciate this even if it's rarely stated) it's often clear the shower has recently been thoroughly cleaned, there are fresh towels and soap laid out, and sometimes other little extras that the lady has taken the time to offer. So first of all, thanks! It does make me wonder if there's any etiquette that we gents in turn should be following when making use of a lady's shower. I may enjoy a maid outfit as much as the next guy, but I don't actually want to leave any kind of mess you have to clean up. Does it matter where we leave the towel or soap? Do you have any petpeeves we should avoid? Or are we good as long as we leave the toilet seat down?

Couldn't a fair comparison be how people feel about breasts? I mean, if I told you that--regardless of society's ever-changing ideal--different people will have different preferences in breast size, would anyone question it? Perhaps more importantly, what if I suggested that even people who are particularly drawn to a certain type are nevertheless still attracted and enjoy playing with just about any, regardless of size/shape? I could probably even point out that for some it's not a body part they are fussy about at all, especially in comparison to other traits (be they physical or personality). And what if I made the observation that most people are generally more worried and critical about their own body than others are? Anyway, the comparison probably isn't perfect, but figure I'd throw it out there.

Cash for me too. As Tallguy said, a terminal seems less personal for some reason. That said, I'd make an exception if it's one of those manual credit card imprinters. Anyone remember those? It would be worth it for the laugh!

After several weeks of very friendly messaging, my schedule at last allowed me to spend some time with Tracie (aka Midnite Massage) in person. Those of you who see her posts here on Cerb or have visited her blog will already know she has both a friendly and sexy personality online, and this is just as true if not moreso in person. From the moment you walk in her door you are truly made to feel like the centre of the universe. I left feeling utterly pampered, and having enjoyed more than one new experience. Tracie's positive outlook and fun nature are a delight. Cerb and Halifax are both lucky to have you, Midnite!

As a kid...

I'm sure there has to be a few Game of Thrones fans among the ladies? If so, whose banner are you raising? Did I miss anybody?

Hi jumpinm, Cerb definitely offers a better level of discourse, doesn't it? As for your question, I think this is one of those topics where actions speak louder than words. I wouldn't presume to speak for everyone, but it strikes me that asking an SP about their testing habits is more likely to insult than impress. Instead, read someone's recommendations, message back and forth a bit, do some research. Your impression from that is likely to tell you much more than a question about testing habits. It seems to me unlikely that anyone is going to straightforward answer that no, they aren't safe, or know and admit they're positive for something. And as Summer points out, a test is only valid until the next encounter. Given this, what does asking the question actually gain you? In the end protecting yourself is more about you choosing to engage in safe sex practices. And of course hobbyists shouldn't assume that testing is only something SP's should get done. There's a thread you might be interested in where people discussed questions not to ask an SP, and I think this one popped up a few times in it: http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=97946
