Run Away?

Tonight we are talking about a few things.  Death and how when it's in the form of someone close how the depression comes in waves.  Making life changing decisions.  And a funny story about a straight guy who "accidentally" goes in to a gay sex club in Berlin and lives to tell the hilarious story.

Coloring Hot Dudes?

If you have been under a rock for the last several months you may not have noticed Coloring Books for Adults have been growing in popularity.  I get the therapeutic gains from using these Coloring Books as a stress reliever or to combat boredom.  But, before I completely dismiss the legitimacy of Adult Coloring books, particularly the one pictured above.  Let me first say I am a proud gay man with no hang ups about my gayness.  But, does everything have to be for everyone? The political correctness in me says, "Absolutely!!". But, my satirical side implores me to say " WTF!". I think it's important that lgbt images need to placed right along side of our non-gay Bros and Sisters.  I do often chuckle how they, kind of, just throw some gay characters in movies/shows for the sheer fact of gaining some gay viewers.  Save the fact, that they normally stereotype us to death with eye rolls, snaps and witty repartee.  But, I digress.

 Albeit,fun and a little provocative, do we need a Coloring Book depicting gay images?  Am I wrong to be a little offended by it? Tell me what you think and give me you opinion in the comment section below.

I Don't Want To Hear That

 

Have you ever been talking to someone and they tell you something that you really didn't want to hear? Or better yet, something you didn't need to hear.  Well tonight's episode I give 2 real life examples and one media example of things I didn't want to hear.  First, my co-worker thought I would be interested in hearing how his old (68) butt gets freaky in the bedroom. *side eye* Second, George Zimmerman isn't going away easy.  He actually wanted a "celebrity" fight with a black person so black America would ease up on him. The person that first answered the call was rapper The Game and then DMX through his hat in the "ring". Thankfully, there was enough public outcry that promoter Damon Feldman ended the match saying he had a change of heart in the matter. Lastly, there is a scammer trying to get me to send money to Africa so he can buy food.  I didn't want to hear that!

Thanks for checking me out.

To Shave Or Not To Shave?

What are you?

I recently came across an article about manscaping.  It was full of useful tidbits of pro and cons for this growing trend with men.  It also reminded me of a conversation I had with a friend  a few years ago.  For some reason we started talking about guys who groom their pubes.  I offered that I didn't shave because it wasn't necessary.  Astounded, my friend  thought that I was crazy not to shave my pubes.  I tried to explain that I really didn't need to.  But, he was convinced that I had a "jungle" down there.  I assured him that I did not. Although, I did try and shave my testicles once and couldn't bring myself to do it.  And now years later I still do not and will not shave.  I suppose that's just a person preference.  I have been with men who have shaved and sculpted their pubes.  Men who have more hair down there than on the top of their head.  But, it seems that I like the natural look on my men.   However nature decided to make you grow hair, it's how I like you (pubic hair perspective only lol).

EAT LES CHIKIN

 This was a pretty interesting article from Michael Jones on www.change.org  that I recycled for you all.

Bet Chick-fil-A wishes this month would end. Over the past few weeks, the restaurant chain's deep ties to the anti-gay movement have been exposed and uncovered by a number of activists, most notably Jeremy Hooper at Good As You. Whether it's Focus on the Family, the National Organization for Marriage, the Pennsylvania Family Institute, or Exodus International, Chick-fil-A ties run deep.
Of course, the President of Chick-fil-A wants gay people to share no hard feelings. The restaurant will gladly feed homosexuals gobs of chicken sandwiches, after all. But when it comes to marriage, Chick-fil-A believes strongly that same-sex couples just don't deserve equal rights.
As we wrote about a few weeks ago, Chick-fil-A's charitable arm, the WinShape Foundation, has been particularly active in the fight against marriage equality. They've hosted conferences with some of the leading opponents of gay marriage in this country. A higher up at WinShape has even praised the efforts of anti-gay activist David Blankenhorn for working against marriage equality, and for articulating a solid reason why American culture should reject same-sex couples.
Now comes some email correspondence that Good As You has shared on their blog, where the WinShape Foundation's Retreat Center -- a center run by the charitable arm of Chick-fil-A -- admits that they have a severe distaste for LGBT people.
The email correspondence goes a little something like this. Someone writes WinShape an easy question about whether their retreat center is open to LGBT people. WinShape's response:
"WinShape Retreat defines marriage from the Biblical standard as being between one man and one woman. Groups/Individuals are welcome who offer wholesome, educational conferences and programs that are compatible with Biblical values and WinShape's purpose," WinShape wrote back.
Kind of some corporate speak, right? So the activist wrote back: can you just give a clear-cut answer? And WinShape confirmed:
"We do not accept homosexual couples because of the statement in our contract."
And so it goes like this: Chick-fil-A is a restaurant where franchises frequently donate to anti-gay organizations like the Pennsylvania Family Institute, Focus on the Family and others. The restaurant's charitable arm, WinShape, holds conferences for opponents of gay marriage and praises their work. And this charitable arm's Retreat program puts a blanket ban on gay couples using their facilities, because they "do not accept homosexual couples."
Yet the President of Chick-fil-A still says that all people, including LGBT people, are treated with respect by the restaurant? Huh, what a funny definition of respect.
Meanwhile, check this story out. So the Human Rights Campaign's NOMExposed project tried to submit an equality-minded video to the Ruth Institute's "Reel Love Video Challenge." The Ruth Institute is an affiliate of the National Organization for Marriage, and they're running a contest where folks can submit videos talking about what love means. The video below was originally accepted, but then promptly booted out of the project once the Ruth Institute became aware that it actually championed equality for same-sex couples.
Here's the kicker: the Ruth Institute's "Reel Love Video Challenge" has a tie-in to Chick-fil-A's WinShape Foundation. Wouldn't it be nice to hear why the Ruth Institute and the WinShape Foundation find the below video so offensive? After all, what is love if it isn't equal?

When in Rome... Act Like A Gladiator!!

I am always late when it comes to popular music, clothes and television shows.  This holds true for not catching Spartacus: Blood and Sand the first time around.  I had heard about this series before and didn't pay much attention to it. But, now that Spartacus Gods of the Arena is airing, I had to catch myself up on the the premiere season so I would at least have a background.  Thanks to Netflix, I was able to see it in it's entirety this passed weekend. A story of a man determined to persevere for love, honor and respect.  I have to say I enjoyed every blood soaked, erotic, back stabbing moment of it. 

The very sexy Andy Whitfield plays the hero Spartacus in true gladiator fashion.  He is a "god" among men in many aspects of this show.  It also didn't hurt that he walked around in well fitted roman undies for 95% of the series and the other 5% he was naked. I was pleasantly surprised to see Lucy Lawlwess in the role of the Domina, Lucretia. It took me 4 episodes to realize it was Xena! 

This isn't one for the kids. As Starz informs you at the beginning of every show "Spartacus is a historical portrayal of ancient Roman society that contains graphic violence and adult content". Spartacus has just about everything you could want in a period piece..uncensored.  The Romans were obviously some over sexed barbarians. I did find the blatant, if not literal, homo eroticism of it all very appealing.  You actually see, during the series, several graphic sex scenes and an actual pre-existing gay relationship. In reference to the gay relationship, I wished they had developed it more.  Which they may since the new season Gods of the Arena is a prequel with some of the characters younger selves appearing.  Then there is that little thing of all the men look like pumped up male super models that walk around naked most of the time.  I will say that Starz found some of the best asses on the planet It must have been a prerequisite to get this acting job.  All in all, it was an awesome show. I am sorry to here that the lead character will not be returning for the second season because of a battle with cancer.  I hope he has a fast and full recovery.  For those of you who have not seen it, yet.  It is definitely worth renting or catching on Netflix.  

The A-List

Austin, Derek, Ryan, Reichen, Mike, Rodiney

I started writing this blog several weeks ago, but the holidays came/coming. So, I got caught up in a time crunch like most people this time of year.  But, here is my A list blog that should have come out after the reunion show.

The A List is a reality show based on the life of 6 gay men living on the pulse of  the New York "in crowd".  This show, albeit gay men, is done in the fashion of The Real Housewives franchise.  We stumble upon these men in every day "unscripted" (wink) life.  I will have to say I have a serious crush on the Brazilian hunk, Rodiney Santiago.  Rodiney is one of the A Listers who is involved in a relationship with  "real" reality star Amazing Race winner,  Reichen Lemkuhl.  Reichen is no stranger to reality tv or having his reality shown on tv.  He has had a public celebrity break up with N Sync'r Lass Bass.  I should pick up his (Lance) book to see what he has to say about Mr. Lemkuhl.  I think it's interesting that Lance hasn't had anything to say about Reichen on his relationship with Rodiney. If anyone has some dirt CALL ME!  Oh well, back to the matter at hand.  Rodiney and Reichen seem to have this I love you so much, but I may really resent you relationship thing going on .  I just wanted to shake the hell out of Rodiney and say JUST LEAVE.  Every time I watched an episode where Reichen was pretty much bitch slapping Rodiney's ego, I would cringe. Then rewind it and watch it again to make sure I didn't hear or see what just happened. LOL  That brings me to Austin.  The young twenty something queen who Reichen feels he needs in his life.  YOU ARE IN YOUR 40's Reichen. You do not need a twenty year old  telling you how to live your life.  I could care less that he was riding Marc Jacob.  That doesn't give him a PhD in relationship advice.  This kid needs to be removed.. ummm KICKED out of your life.  If you have seen the series you know there were drinks flung and fist slung.  I'll will say this to Rodiney.  If my man allowed someone to attack me in public and still wanted to remain friends with them. I would have to go.  But, all of this is just the tip of the iceberg.. err most of the iceberg.  There are 3 other A Listers that add to all of this delicious drama.  Ryan, the married botox laden hair dresser, Mike Ruiz, celebrity photographer and Derek, the spray tan queen. But, it works with the ensemble that LOGO has gathered I almost forgot cute and campy TJ, Ryan's bestfriend and employee.  Girl, I hope you get paid next season. If you have not seen the show you can catch all the episodes on Logo's website. All of these boys have twitter accounts that make for a pretty interesting read.  Check them out!

Atlanta Gay Activist Dies

The death of a GLBT equality advocate has reportedly been attributed to a mix of poppers and a drug for erectile dysfunction.

Gregg Barrett, a longtime volunteer with gay organizations such as the Atlanta Gay Men’s Chorus, Atlanta’s AIDS Walk, and Atlanta Pride, had been visiting a friend when he combined poppers with Levitra, reported the Georgia Voice on June 11. The next morning, Barrett was dead, having apparently succumbed while sleeping. The article said that Levitra advises against using the drug together with poppers.

Individuals seeking to enhance sexual pleasure inhale fumes from chemicals known as alkyl nitrites, which are used in various medical and commercial applications, including as ingredients for aerosol deodorants such as room fresheners, according to a Wikipedia article. The effect of the chemicals is to increase blood flow and relax sphincter muscles, leading to a brief increase in sexual pleasure. Though long-term abuse of such substances have been linked to an array of health issues, occasional use seems to pose little risk, unless the chemicals are ingested or combined with drugs designed to counter erectile dysfunction, such as Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra, which warn consumers not to use poppers while taking their products.

GLBT advocacy site Advance Indiana posted the story on June 12, under a headline that asked, "Will Gay Community and Law Enforcement Wake Up?" The article noted that use of poppers can make "rough sex" easier and less uncomfortable.

A PDF document on the risks of using poppers for sexual purposes is available from Project Neon.org. The document details, in plain language, how use of poppers can increase the risk of sexually transmitted infections such as HIV.

"When you’re high you may lose good judgment," the document warns, adding, "Guys who use crystal or poppers tend to have more sex with more partners." Additionally, the physiological effects of such drugs also play a role in increasing disease transmission: "Poppers open blood vessels, sending more blood to areas like your dick and ass," the text explains. ""This makes it easier for HIS and other STDs to get into your bloodstream."

Since poppers are often used at circuit parties and other social events, the text went on to look at how "Crystal, alcohol, or all-night dancing and sex can dehydrate you and dry up the natural lubricant in your butt. A dry cracked butt is a welcome matt for viruses and germs."

Poppers also play a more direct role in increasing the risk of unprotected anal sex: "Poppers and crystal meth can each reduce the pain of anal sex," the text notes. "But long, hard butt sex beyond your normal limits can create small tears and more openings for HIV."

The document also warns that combining poppers with crystal meth can over-tax the heart and cardiovascular system.

Barrett served as the operations chair for Atlanta Pride. "In short, he was personally responsible for every other committee’s needs, and the operations center was ground zero for any issue during the festival," said the executive director of Atlanta Pride, JP Sheffield, a June 4 article at Project Q Atlanta said. "Power outages, chairs needed, anything at all, that call went to Greg. It was a really, really tough job.

"I can’t even think abut how we’re going to make due yet," added Sheffield. "It’s not just about losing someone who did a good job, but he had an institutional history of what worked and what didn’t work. You can’t replace that kind of knowledge. You can’t have another Greg."

Barrett is survived by his life partner, Tim Garrett.
