I’M GAY? YOU’RE SUED! There should be a law against people who take offence and sue at being called “gay” – regardless of their actual orientation; and especially if they’ve made, and continue to make, a highly lucrative living from flaunting other selected aspects of their “private lives”. {...more...} |
||||
GAY GENES CAN’T STOP GAY HATE Scarce a week goes by without the great – allegedly yet deceptively morally crucial - “gay gene” debate flaring up, prompted by anything from queer goings on amongst penguins at New York zoo, to “against nature” jibes lobbed by right-wing fascists or religious thugs. {...more...} |

CAMP ATTACK DO CAMP GAYS HOLD US BACK? Love the boots dolly, they’re just so so sweetie! Gay Camp: live and let live or time to move on? First things first: there’s no logical - or biological - connection between someone’s sexuality and their general demeanour and behaviour. Such things are social constructs - part conditioned, part chosen. {...more...} |

HAIL MARY, FULL OF STEROIDS “Sure,” replied Bud to Buddy, both prowling to the padded altar of the squat-press frame. Speechless in his sleeveless smock, Bud unfurled the oxen slab of muscle once a back onto the heaving bench. Speechless, he readied his push with panting breath and swelling veins in brow and arse, then heaved with buttock-clenching vim. The last squat-pressing gasp passed into moan then grunt, as skin turned red and ‘rhoids throbbed under Buddy’s tender gaze. {...more...} |

REDS IN BED Would you tarry with young Prince Harry? From ginger minge to strawberry blonde, red-head Adrian Gillan on a crimson fetish, gay taunts and jibes and why reds now have cred, not just in bed.{...more...} |

ES-SEX BOYS ears of jokes have only put the sex back into Essex claims local lush Adrian Gillan, returning to his out-grown peroxide roots. How do Essex boys turn the light off after sex? They shut the car door. What makes Dagenham Dave’s eyes light up? A touch shone in his ear. {...more...} |

CLOSET CASE ? When does privacy become a cop out and how closet are YOU? HBeing a “closet” is such a modern luxury. Before 1967 in the UK - and, as I type, in many parts of the world - you would scarce call a guy a closet for hiding what might destroy his very life and livelihood and put him in jail or worse. {...more...} |

BISEXUALITY: TWENTY MYTHS EXPLODED When does privacy become a cop out and how closet are YOU? Give me an ‘L’, give me a ‘G’, give me a ‘B’: Adrian Gillan dissects the bi scene and biphobia. What are gays so scared of? Even organisations like Stonewall make no claim to represent transgender people, many of whom themselves resist falling under any “LGBT” banner anyway. However, all of us seem at least to pay some lip service - however ignorant, prejudiced, hostile or downright bilious - to the blessed “B”. {...more...} |

MAD ABOUT THE BOY NEXT DOOR Celebrity schmebrity! Forget Will Young or Justin ‘Trouser-Snake’: It’s all happening next door says Adrian Gillan, attacking the gay world’s obsession with stardom whilst out for a neighbourly knock. {...more...} |

ANYONE FOR T? Don’t drop the T from the LGB pleads Circa’s own boy bender, Adrian Gillan. To tag on the T or not to tag on the T to the LGB, that is the question? And a pretty controversial one at that, with some of the UK’s most prominent “gay rights groups” quietly ditching the T - doubtless to help lube the passage of their hard-enough-as-is fight for rights! {...more...} |

FOREIGN BODIES Foreigners as fetish: We love bonking blokes abroad claims rampant rambler Adrian Gillan. Gay boys travel for it, and that’s official: half of us take at least three breaks abroad each year according to recent surveys – more than our straight fellows. And whether beach boy or city boy, we know what packages we’re really after, taking our own horny stereotypic psychological baggage along with us. {...more...} |

FLY AWAY GAY: QUEER EXPATS From the Cape to the Keys: Adrian Gillan’s Top Ten Tips for wannabe gay ex-pats who’ve had enough of UK life! The UK government estimates 13 million British nationals now live oversees. A disproportionately high number of these expats are likely to be gay – seeking out new lives, often in warmer, equally or more gay-friendly climes, perhaps with fewer family ties to keep them home. Some move with folks when young; some study or work abroad and stay; others cling to Blighty - until they retire. {...more...} |

SO CUTE IT HURTS It isn’t easy being gorgeous. Eyed up constantly, who can you trust and how can you ever satisfy their expectations? Adrian Gillan meets some pretty sad stunners. If we could be gorgeous - but just for one day! Sure, it’s great enhancing one’s own moderately fine features for a Saturday night out, but do we fully appreciate how utterly disabling it is to be naturally dazzling? {...more...} |

NO SEX PLEASE, WE ARE GAY Sex, sex, sex: has the whole world gone bonking? Adrian Gillan meets the silent, simmering gays who - for various reasons - couldn’t give a f***. Some are born not wanting it, some end up not getting it, and some just have a lack of sex thrust upon them! Some chose it, some don’t. Some pleasure themselves, some won’t. Some try it first, some never do. Some are happy, some are not. {...more...} |

THE QUEER YEAR Adrian Gillan looks back on the year that was, asking prominent queers what they made of it all. Peter Tatchell (human rights campaigner - www.petertatchell.net; www.tatchellrightsfund.org) Highs of ‘07: Stopping the deportation from Britain of the Iranian lesbian refugee, Pegah Emambakhsh, which probably saved her from imprisonment, torture and possible execution. {...more...} |

TOP TEN HISTORIC MALE COUPLES OF ALL TIME From the sublime and glamorous to the comic and tragic: Adrian Gillan counts down the Top Ten Famous Historic Gay Male Couples of All Time… 1. Alexander the Great (general 356-323BC) & Hephaistion (confidant and lover 356-323BC) – Alexander had to be pulled off his dead lover’s corpse; shaved his head; and threw a mega funeral! {...more...} |

NEW CLASS OF “POPPERS” COULD CAUSE CANCER TOO Lack of research means a new class of “poppers” - inhalant nitrites, marketed as “room aromas” since UK sale for explicit human consumption is illegal - may be just as dangerous as its predecessor, banned last year for being carcinogenic, concede health campaigners. This is the surprise fall-out from an in-depth report compiled by Terrence Higgins Trust that sought primarily to alert gay men to the hiked risk of contracting HIV if using “high”-inducing poppers whilst having sex without a condom: since the drug can lower inhibitions – potentially resulting in longer, rougher sex – and since it increases blood flow inside the rectum. {...more...} |

PERVERSION ALL-PERVADING Surely, argues Adrian Gillan, all but the most terrible sex involves fetish: an erotic fixation on clothing, physique, physical appearance, anatomy, activity, type or “tribe”. Fetish is surprisingly mainstream; perversion all-pervading; and naughtiness the norm. It’s debatable whether any but the most mechanical sexual activity is possible without its fair share of fetish. And even mechanical sex can be elevated to the truly erotic, if fetishised. {...more...} |
