The top 10 male nudes in art

From: The Guardian

Belvedere Torso 

Greek 

1st century BC

This relic of a Greek statue was an overnight sensation when it was dug up in Rome in the early 16th century. Its most passionate fan was Michelangelo, who found a mirror image of his own intense charcoal drawings of male backs. It helped him see the pathos of the broken, in which he exults in his deliberately unfinished statues of Prisoners. It is still echoed in the male nudes of Mapplethorpe and Freud. The Belvedere Torso reveals that ancient Greek artists portrayed not only the perfect heroic body, but also the body suffering, tragic, heaving with pathos.

Ask QC: Fantasies of a Group Grope

From: Queer Click

Dear QC,

I'm happily partnered, have been for the last 6 years and I would say we have a very healthy and regular sex life.

The reason I'm writing in is because I recently started having these fantasies about being groped in a mass orgy of men. And I'm not just talking about occasional dreams either. These fantasies appear when I'm at work, on the train, in the street, shopping, etc and pretty much everywhere and all the time too!

I just wondered if this is OK, too weird, just a phase or does these mean that I am lacking something sexually? Does this actually mean that in order to be fulfilled I need to act on these fantasies and start going out for group sex? With being in a monogamous relationship I'm not sure how to approach my partner about this without him being upset about it, any ideas?

SF.

Do any of you have compelling fantasies like this? Did it just last for a while and what advice would you give SF? Please feel free to share your own experiences and advice to help him in the comments section.

Throwback Thursday:

Alan Cumming Exposes Himself on the Cover
From: OUT

Broadway's bad boy takes it all off

After owning the stage with his Tony Award-winning performance as The Master of Ceremonies in Cabaret, Alan Cumming set his sights on the big screen. His cover on the November 1999 issue played on his transition from the sexualized theater performer to a mainstream entertainer - searching for new exposure. That year, he moved away from small roles in films like Spice World to Saturninus in the Julie Taymor-directed adaptation of Titus Andronicus. The role alongside parts in Eyes Wide Shut and Get Carter suddenly saw him working with some of the best directors and actors in Hollywood.

His "it moment" eventually led him to write, direct and produce The Anniversary Party alongside Jennifer Jason Leigh. The two brought together a cast of "who's who" in Hollywood earning both accolades.

Fifteen years later, he's suddenly having an "it moment" again. In addition to his viciously funny role as Eli Gold on TGW, he's recurring on Showtime's Web Therapy, published a new book (May the Foreskin Be With You) and even found time to remarry his husband Grant Shaffer.

Now he's back on Broadway as The Master of Ceremonies in a revival of Carabet co-starring Michelle Williams. The show marks his third time as the emcee proving that no matter how mainstream he gets, he'll always have that flamboyantly omnisexual streak that made him theater's favorite bad boy.

Marky Mark & Kate Moss Team Up In 90s Calvin Klein Commercial

From: The Underwer Expert

This Throwback Thursday moment takes us back roughly twenty years ago to the sexy 90s Calvin Klein Commercial featuring then rapper Marky Mark and an 18 year old Kate Moss.

In the video, Marky Mark is wearing some rather long, white Calvin Klein boxer briefs. When it comes to getting the job done in the bedroom, this is one guy that doesn’t believe in silk boxer shorts.

Check out the campaign below. What was your favorite Calvin Klein campaign?

Man Strips In Airport For Banned 90s Underdaks Commercial

From: The Underwear Expert

This Throwback Thursday video is from 1998 and features a vintage Underdaks commercial that was actually banned in Australia.

The video starts off with a man making his way through airport security. The TSA officer has the man go through the scanner multiple times. Each time, he has to strip off pieces of clothing. Ultimately, he strips down to his white Underdaks briefs. By the end of the commercial, it is revealed that the female TSA officer was deliberately making him strip. In this day and age, all she has to do is send him through that new naked scanner.

Check out the video below. Do you think this video should have been banned

Guess His Dick #23: Reveal

From: Queer Click

 Have you given it some head scratchin'? What's the verdict? How much bacon rod is this guy smuggling? Are you ready? [Hint: You're not.]

The verdict 

This guy's packing a monster.

 Nine inches, cut. 

Almost the perfect thickness. We're never given a lot of thought to the "perfect dick" (every dick is perfect in its own way, right?), but if we had to imagine one, this would probably be it. What do you guys think?

May 1st is Batman Day

If you are of the opinion that there are not enough days set aside to celebrate fictional vigilantes, who dress up as flying creatures in order to tackle crime, then we agree with you. Fortunately, there is one such date set aside every year – Batman Day.

The purpose of Batman Day is to celebrate the anniversary of the character’s first ever appearance, which was in Detective Comics #27 way back in May 1939. Since those early comic book appearances, Batman has grown into one of the world’s best-loved and most recognizable fictional characters, and is the focal point of television shows, animated cartoons, video games and Hollywood blockbusters.

Do you possess some Batman-related comic books, video games or DVDs? Are you the proud owner of a Batman fancy dress costume that rarely gets used? Whatever the case, why not find a way to celebrate Gotham City’s greatest detective?

May 1st is National Purebred Dog Day

We propose that May 1st be designated National Purebred Dog Day, a day on which we celebrate the purebred dog. Created to work alongside man as they provide inestimable companionship, purebred dog breeds have served as guide dogs, earth dogs, search and rescue, military and police dogs and guardians of home, hearth and livestock; They are herders, vermin control, water rescuers, carting and sled dogs, retrievers, protectors, hunters, and bird dogs, and always, they are the heart beat of a companion near and dear to us. We value all dogs, whatever their ancestry, but we cherish the purpose bred dog and the predictability of its respective breed.

May 1st is May Day

May Day on May 1 is an ancient Northern Hemisphere spring festival and usually a public holiday; it is also a traditional spring holiday in many cultures. May Day coincides with International Workers' Day, and in many countries that celebrate the latter, it may be referred to as "May Day".

The top 10 male nudes in art

From: The Guardian

Donatello 

David 

circa 1440-1460

No modern image is more blatantly sexual than Donatello's 15th-century statue of a naked youth, his smooth flesh set off by tight boots as he rests a foot in the soft hair of the slain Goliath. Androgynous and overtly teasing, it makes you self-conscious to look too long at this magnetic work in the Bargello Museum, in Florence. In fact, this is the first free-standing nude statue of the Renaissance. It embodies, literally, the revival of ancient Greece and Rome. Yet for all its centrality to the textbook history of art, Donatello's provocation refuses to become a bore. It throbs with ecstasy and danger.

KENNEDY CARTER BY RYAN EDWARD SCOTT

From: Manhunt Daily

 There’s something to be said for retiring when you’re at the top of your game, even if you wind up leaving thousands of fans with throbbing, unsatisfied erections. Arguably, that’s what fiery gay porn performer Kennedy Carter did when he left his exclusive gig at Cocky Boys to focus on his studies, his work and himself.

If you’re curious what Kennedy’s been up to since his departure from the adult industry, head over to Summer Diary Project to read an exclusive interview with photographer Ryan Edward Scott. Oh, and lucky for us, the piece comes equipped with an equally exclusive photo editorial from the interviewer himself. Check it out!
