Trim the Bush, Make the Tree Look Taller

2011-01-07T07:05:00.000-08:00

I'm sure a lot of us don't need to shave our balls to make our tree look taller, but there are other reasons you might want smooth balls. The mere existence of this "how-to" video from Giilette is a testament to just how popular the practice of shaving one's underbrush has become.

Turkish Delight

2011-01-06T15:52:00.000-08:00

From Wikipedia: "Traditionally, the masseurs in the Turkish baths (Tellak) were young men who helped wash clients by soaping and scrubbing their bodies. They were recruited from among the ranks of the non-Muslim subject nations of the Turkish empire, such as Greeks, Armenians, Jews, Roma and others. After the defeat and dismemberment of the Ottoman army in the early 20th century, the role of tellak boys was filled by adult attendants."

From Smithsonian.com:

Humans have marked their bodies with tattoos for thousands of years. These permanent designs—sometimes plain, sometimes elaborate, always personal—have served as amulets, status symbols, declarations of love, signs of religious beliefs, adornments and even forms punishment.

Hazed and Confused

2009-03-05T07:31:00.000-08:00

Spanking is popular...

Branding is an option too!

From Hotsteammachine...

Hazing is a ritualistic test that allows boys to be boys without fear of being called a homo.

From Wikipedia:

Hazing is a ritualistic test and a task involving harassment, abuse or humiliation used as a way of initiating a person into a gang, club, military organization or other group. The definition can refer to either physical (sometimes violent) or mental (possibly degrading) practices. It may also include nudity or sexually oriented activities...

The Last Temptation of Christ

2009-02-25T06:07:00.000-08:00

Today is Ash Wednesday which starts off the 40 days of Lent. Did you know that the 40 days of Lent represent the 40 days Jesus spent in the desert praying and being tempted by the the Devil? From the looks of the painting, I'd say Jesus was a lucky guy, although in 40 days he'll be crucified, so maybe not so lucky.

Turkish Oil Wrestlers

2009-02-19T11:30:00.000-08:00

Oil Wrestling is one of the most popular sports in Turkey. Also known as Kirkpinar, this sport has origins that date back to 2650BC in Persia! In a nut shell, the participants wear these tight leather trousers and then rub olive oil all over themselves, which of course makes them very slippery. One of the only ways that they are able to get a good hold of each other is buy grabbing each other by the crotch. It's a great way for straight guys to bond.

SHAVING 101 - The Walrus Mustache

2009-02-02T10:32:00.000-08:00

The walrus mustache first became popular at the end of the 19th century and was worn by such men as President Grover Cleavland, Friedrich Nietzsche and Wyatt Earp.

Wyatt Earp

By the time the Stock Market crashed in 1929, the walrus mustache had suffered a similar fate, only to be revived for a few hot seconds by the counter-culture youth of the 1960's.

The Beatles

In the 1980's two famous Toms brought the walrus mustache back into fashion.

Henry Scott Tuke 1858 - 1913

2009-01-28T15:17:00.000-08:00

Henry Scott Tuke was a British painter whose paint strokes where rough and visible in a time when smooth stokes and polished finishes were all the rage. In 1885 he bought a fishing boat and converted it into a art studio. It was here, while living on this boat, that he created his most famous paintings of young men swimming in the nude. Our favorite past-time.

FRIDAY'S PARTY WAS A BLAST

2009-01-27T15:54:00.000-08:00

We have finally recovered from last Friday's pool party. As usual, the crowd was really hot and really eager to blow off some steam. The saunas seemed like the place to be. Not surprising since the temperatures in New York have been hovering around 20 degrees! Leopatra's show was really out-of-this-world. He juggled his torches with 6 inch, red platform boots with stiletto heals, a cape, mask AND a turban. For his second act, he balanced a sword / candelabra on his forehead, wearing a codpiece and wings! Very exciting and very gay!
