How to Gay Bottom Well; Big, Bad and On Top by Ryan Field
How to Gay Bottom Well
I figured since I'm posting on this topic a lot lately I'd add this link for anyone interested. It's a piece about how to bottom like a pro. I know when I was younger I didn't have a clue and dads don't usually take their sons aside and give them the facts of life about gay sex. I'm sure that's going to change in the future. But I would imagine most gay men learned about sex the same way I did. Hit or miss.
I know this first link is really more like an advertor...

Dog Meat Festival; Power Bottoms; Gay Bachelors People Magazine; Cage James by Ryan Field Free Excerpt
Dog Meat Festival
Please keep in mind this is a cultural piece, and the video with the link is going to disturb you. I couldn't finish watching it. I thought I could take a lot. But I just couldn't watch. It's a piece about a different kind of activism we rarely hear about in the US. It's animal activism that many are starting to take more seriously in places like Yulin, China, where there's an annual dog and cat meat festival. I'm posting about it because I have two new releases coming out so...

Bad Term Bottom; Iranian Modern Family; Gay Masculinity? Chase of a Lifetime by Ryan Field
Bad Term Bottom
I've been posting about this all weekend...not really planned. And I came across this next article about the negative associations that go along with being a bottom in "our" community. But there's a huge question mark all over this. In fact, the article claims that the most wonderful thing you can say about a man in "our" community is that he's a top.
This is the single biggest emotional stumbling block gay men have about bottoming -- being labeled less than a man. For many of...

Penis Size and Gay Men; Joan Rivers Goes Too Far? More Gays Than Lesbians; Down the Basement by Ryan Field
Penis Size and Gay Men
Of course this is about penis size once again, and it's not really an article. But I often find that forums where people talk about topics like this can be far more honest and realistic than those "studies" we see mentioned in magazines and posts.
In this case the topic is how gay men feel about penis size. If you are of the sensitive variety, you've been warned this isn't what you'll find in any text book.
Why would anyone want a small one?\ \ I hate seeing a pencil dick...

Bottoming Is Harder; Problems With Gay Men; The Preacher's Husband by Ryan Field
Bottoming Is Harder
Someone came up with 14 reasons why being a bottom is harder than being a top and I thought it was interesting with respect to the more generalized way gay men think. I'm not saying this is all we think about, not by any means. But if you were to read a blog post like this one, and read the way gay men are discussed in fiction, you would think gay men had no interest in that big bad, horrible thing called sex. I just find that mildly amusing, in a dismissive sense...

Hot Castro Cop; Bottoms Up; More Bottoms In NY? The Virgin Billionaire Series by Ryan Field
Hot Castro Cop
Remember my post about the hot cop of Castro in San Francisco that had Armistead Maupin so weak? We now know his name and he even has a Facebook page.
Kohrs hadn't done anything to draw attention to himself except for being hunky and doing his job as a patrol officer in one of the gayest neighborhoods in the US - the neighborhood where Harvey Milk launched his political career.
You can read more about him here where there's a link to his Facebook page. He made a point...

Theresa Santai-Gaffney, NOM/Tea Party
The small town Pennsylvania clerk, Theresa Santai-Gaffney, who has been trying to appeal Judge Jones' ruling on gay marriage all month recently lost yet another appeal in Federal Court.
On Thursday, the U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals struck down her appeal of a lower court’s rejection of her bid to intervene in defense of Pennsylvania’s same-sex marriage ban. Gaffney is trying to appeal U.S. District Judge John E. Jones III’s May ruling that struck...

Gay Marriage SCOTUS; Gay Rape Culture; Take Me Always by Ryan Field
Gay Marriage SCOTUS
One year after the historical SCOTUS ruling that's helped pave the way for gay marriage to become legal in some states, LGBTI advocates are planning to fight even harder in hopes that by the end of SCOTUS's next term gay marriage will be legalized throughout the nation.
Today, just a year after the Windsor decision striking down the core of the Defense of Marriage Act and the Perry decision that kept California’s Proposition 8 off the books, all major LGBT advocates su...

Judge Judy on Grindr; 35 Worst Sex Acts; Instagram Homophobia? Small Town Romance Writer by Ryan Field
Judge Judy on Grindr
Judge Judith Sheindlin recently found out what gay hook up site, Grindr, is all about through an episode of her courtroom TV show, Judge Judy. She was in the middle of a dispute between a 47 year old man and his 23 year old "friend" when she found out they'd met on Grindr. Her comments, as always, are classic.
'Um, we met on a, um ... social website,' Murphy explained. 'It's actually called Grindr. ... It's an app for your phone or your iPad. It'...
