Billionaire Who Died During Penis Enlargement; Five Excellent Penis Rings; 10 Penis Health Questions; Amish Indiscretion by Ryan Field

Billionaire Who Died During Penis Enlargement

For anyone considering any kind of elective surgery, this is something to think about. 

When diamond-trading billionaire Ehud Arye Laniado walked into a posh clinic on the banks of the Champs-Elysées to get his penis enlarged last Saturday, he had no idea it would cost him his life.

Here's the link. It's very in-depth about penis enlargement, in general. And they do make a point of stating that Laniado's death was probably not bec...

Whitewashing The "Green Book," ...and "The Gay Yellow Pages" Guidebook; Gay Star News and Chechnya Crisis; Pretty Man by Ryan Field

White Washing The "Green Book," ...and "The Gay Yellow Pages" Guidebook

I saw the movie, Green Book, recently and I had mixed feelings about it. The performances were excellent, but the content left me wondering.  I can see why there was so much negative criticism about whitewashing. It didn't surprise me. This is what Hollywood typically does with every marginalized group. They do it with LGBT content all the time. And, they get away with it all the time, too. Call Me By Your Name is a c...

Trans Teen Arrested In Egypt; Who's Derek Wanker?; Frankie Grande After Throuple Break Up; Blissfully Yours by Ryan Field

Trans Teen Arrested In Egypt

It's not getting any better in Egypt for LGBTQ people. This time it's trans teens.

An 18 year old trans teen was arrested in her home in Cairo for protesting against the negligence leading to a deadly train crash.

‘We fear that the police will treat her as a man and lock her up in cell of men inmates. We know what gays and trans people go through in detention in Egyptian prisons,’ 

Here's the rest of the article.  They go into a lot more detail about wh...

Gay British MP's Cancer Diagnosis; Closeted Rock Hudson's Biopic; Florida Spa Manager Denies A Gay Couple's Massage; Blissfully Yours by Ryan Field

Gay British MP's Cancer Diagnosis

This one gutted me. I've posted about openly gay British MP, Chris Bryant, before and I've always liked him. He recently gave an interview where he disclosed that he's been diagnosed with stage 3 cancer.

The MP has visible scars from where the melanoma was cut out from the side of his head in January.

Here's a link to more. He's remaining positive about the future, and his husband has been supporting him through it all. There's a video, too. It's very emotional....

Andrew Scott on Actors Playing LGBT Roles; Hollywood Getting Queer Stories Wrong; Pretty Man by Ryan Field

Andrew Scott on Actors Playing LGBT Roles

The discussion about whether or not gay actors should play straight parts, and straight actors should play gay parts, continues. And unfortunately you're not going to learn much from this one. He's missing more than one point here. But it's interesting to read his comments anyway, just for future reference. 

Andrew Scott said audiences go to see actors doing their jobs, which includes straight actors playing gay roles.

I want to see how this wh...

Takaya Honda Talks About Playing Gayface

Here's another story about a straight male actor explaining to gay people how he plays gayface. I've never seen his show and the odds are I never will. 

“We get asked, more often than I think we should, ‘what’s it like to play a gay character as a straight actor, do you find it difficult?’

Here's the link.  Because, as straight actors who play gay will always say..."It's acting, it's only acting." 

But it is interesting. He goes on the expla...

Sexy Abe Lincoln Statue Goes Viral; Jewish Agency Assists Gay Employees With Surrogacy; Staten Island Pols Boycott St. Patrick's Day Parade for Gay Exclusion; Pretty Man by Ryan Field

Sexy Abe Lincoln Statue Goes Viral

I saw this trending on Twitter late last night and I didn't realize it was making headlines.

There's a new statue of Abraham Lincoln that stands 8 feet tall, but this artistic interpretation, unlike others, is a hot young Lincoln without a shirt. The people I saw tweeting about it last night were losing their minds. They love it.

The statue also inspired a bit of detective work, with internet sleuths digging up an interview with the statue’s sculptor James Lee...

Only Three Lesbian Bars Remaining In NYC: Cottonelle's Gay Toilet Paper Ad; Gay Conversion Therapy Ban In Germany; Blissfully Yours by Ryan Field

Only Three Lesbian Bars Remaining In NYC

I think this is just another sign of the times. And I don't think there's anything anyone can do to change it. There are so many factors involved, one of which is the Internet. 

A lesbian bar, Bum Bum, in NY just closed down after more than 20 years in business. Up until Bum Bum closed for business recently, there were four lesbian bars still open for business. 

Bum Bum (pronounced ‘boom boom’) Bar opened at 63-14 Roosevelt Avenue in the early 1...

Straight Guys Going To All Male Masturbation Clubs; Gay Refugees Attacked In Kenya; Kendle's Fire by Ryan Field

Straight Guys Going To All Male Masturbation Clubs

Here's a piece that explores some of the possible reasons why straight guys go to all male jerk off clubs. These jerk off clubs aren't like bathhouses or sex clubs. There's no physical contact allowed...not anal or oral. It's simply for masturbation. And there are very strict rules about that.

“You can sometimes tell a guy is straight because he’s not interested in kissing another guy. It’s easy for him to focus on the penis, but not to be phys...

The Pet Rescue Guy by Ryan Field: FREE EXCERPT

The Pet Rescue Guy by Ryan Field: FREE Excerpt

File:7weeks old.JPG Here's an excerpt from a soon to be pubbed book that's tentatively titled, The Pet Rescue Guy. I don't even have a cover yet. It's a gay erotic romance that's focused on a young guy who is the director of an unusual SPCA that caters to all kinds of animals. This guy, Keith, loves his work so much he can't wait to get up in the morning and head to the SPCA.

But there's a problem in Keith's life, and it's one that causes him great internal conflict....
