Just a new guy checking in here. Been lurking around today, absorbing a bunch of information that I think gave me the info I needed to choose a couple things to pick up. Just have to decide to pull the trigger.

I'm thinking about XiSt. Possibly with XS Barely Legal or XS Evolve. Everything I've read sounds like XiSt is a decent place to start, and I've read good things about Evolve as well. I haven't read a thing about BL, but their marketing and reviews might be getting me on that one.

So, I thought I'd add a little more to my introduction:

I'm 37, straight, male, and work in an industry that is mostly women and gay men. It's an industry with heavy division of labor, and my particular specialty is the one that's generally considered to be a bunch of alpha-males, but only compared to the chicks and gay guys in the rest of the industry. Most of the straight guys in my position are squidgy little betas of the type one finds playing video games and working on the lower levels of IT. The women are looked down on as not having been able to hack it in one of the more female-dominated specialties.

I'm a touch under 6 feet tall and put myself over the top with excellent posture and a pair of good cowboy boots. Where most of the guys in my position wear cargo shorts and t-shirts, I tend to wear well-fitted suits or jeans with a dress shirt and sport coat. Caucasian, brown hair with a few natural blonde highlights -- perhaps the occasional grey hair, blue eyes, okay features, carrying a touch more weight than I'd like, but still only a 36 waist/42 jacket.

I have a significant other with whom I sometimes pick up other women.

I sometimes pick up on my own.

In my work, it's very important I get along with the women as they're either my superiors or my subordinates. Sleeping around on the job is considered okay, so long as there's not a hint of coercion, thus if I want to get with any of the women working under me it's extremely important they be interested from the get-go, or at least give very clear signals before I make any opening gambits.

If I go clubbing, which I do less and less, I'm extremely likely to run into the women who work under me.

Away from work, I frequent coffee shops, malls, and bookstores, as well as small shops when I want to meet women.

Used to be in my top 5 but I stopped using it because it was more friendly and less sexual than I wanted. I now use alpha treasures in similar situations. But here is what I said about it a few years ago. I do think it is an excellent product for sure but I believe it is incorrectly named.

Despite the name I do not use this to attract young girls. I use it in bars that are 21+. This stuff makes women want to listen to me when I talk and want my attention when they talk. Super for going out solo and making friends when you are out. I bought three bottles because it is a Limited Edition and I don't know how long SteveO will carry it.

That's really interesting. How does it compare to Taboo if you know at all? I just read a thread on that one and it's found it's way onto my list of options.
