WHAT IS THIS BLOG ALL ABOUT?

On this blog you I am going to share my world with you. What can you expect to find here -- First of all lots of sexy men, off all shapes and types, something for everyone, as I can find beauty in most men. You are going to find that I have a special fondness for Vintage Beefcake and Porn of the 60's, 70's, and 80's. Also, I love the average guy, and if you want to see yourself on here, just let me know. Be as daring as you like, as long as you are of age, let me help you share it with the world! Also, you are going to find many of my points of views, on pop culture, politics and our changing world. Look to see posts about pop culture, politics, entertainment, sex, etc. There is not any subject that I find as something I won't discuss or offer my point of view. Most of all, I hope you are going to enjoy what I post. ENJOY!

“Jock Strap (a work in progress)”

Photos by Rance Palmer.
 The work of Los Angeles based interdisciplinary artist Ben Cuevas spans installation, sculpture, fiber, photography, video, performance, and sound. He reflects on the condition of embodiment, which, he says, begs the question: “what does it mean to have a body, to inhabit a body, to be a body incarnated in, and interacting with, this world?” These are pictures from his 2009 project “Jock Strap (a work in progress)”, and here’s Ben’s description of the project:

 The Jock Strap piece is another work in progress. For this project I sat nude in a men’s locker room and knit myself a jock strap, commenting on the notion of woman’s work vs man’s work and appropriate activities within gender boundaries. What activities are appropriate in any given space? What activities are appropriate within a gendered space?
 I plan to reenact this piece in a locker room that gets more foot traffic, videotape it (hopefully capturing people’s reactions), and make sure I get some footage/images of myself wearing the jockstrap this time. Stay tuned.
