Rugby star, gay ally, and perfect male specimen Ben Cohen on the cover of Attitude
Following this assortment of carefully-selected news items, interested readers can find a refreshing pic of a hot man in underwear after the jump. Yes, we're serious.
There's good news on the scientific front as an AIDS vaccine has produced startling results.
ABC's Modern Family scored big in the ratings last night, coming in second in its timeslot, and first in the coveted 18-49 demographic.
Gay reporter sprite Michael Ausiello has confirmed that Alan Ball is currently casting the role of Talbot, the "trophy husband" to the Vampire King of Mississippi (played by Denis O'Hare.) Hmm ... any fantasy casting picks?
Above you can see Bryan Safi and the latest episode of That's Gay! This time he takes on TV coming out stories.
In my opinion all these kind of coming outs only happen in TV/movies because they will end well there, while in real life it will be a total disaster and will make you feel horrible. It's absurd the way he encouraged people to do this.
Did anyone notice this in the AIDS vaccine article?
"Kim said the vaccine might not work in the people and places where HIV is most common -- in Africa, among men who have sex with men and among injecting drug users."
Apparently they still think that because you are gay you're more likely to have AIDS, just when a cyber-friend of mine tried to donate blood at the hospital, and when they asked him if he's had sex with other men, he said yes, and they banned him for life from the blood bank.
Sounds good but looking at the numbers its possibly just a fluke and there needs to be more testing, Also it only "worked" on one strain of HIV so I hope it wont give people false hope but atleast its a step in the right direction as some researchers are scaling down research in this field.
As for Ben Cohen I have seen that man in action on the field quite a few times and he's poetry in motion, Though that artical seems to be calling him a bear which I always presumed was a larger hairy man (like myself) and not just a guy with fuzz.
I'm not an expert, but I think the bear genre has evolved into a variety of sub-sects along with bears and cubs, Muscled, in-shape, sleek hairy-ish men are now called otters, I believe. There are also wolves and foxes in the London scene. However, I prefer to contend that men don't come much 'otter than Ben Cohen.
The majority of my 'research' involved looking through gaydar profiles and having a lovely chat with a militant 'otter' who vaguely explained things. Were it my scene, I guess I'd go to XXL in Vauxhall and ask pertinent questions. But it's hell on wheels trying to get a night bus back to my place from Vauxhall and the last time I went to a bear-lair (the old London Apprentice) I got bored rigid by hefty guys in leather who looked all macho but spent ages comparing house prices, real ale and environmentally-friendly cleaning products.
You know the old saying, "Those pants are so tight you can tell what religion he is?" Well HELLOOOOOO Mr. Cohen!!! Despite the Jewish surname, from the looks of the 2nd picture, I can tell he ain't Jewish.
OK, if Alan Ball is doing a fantasy casting for a "trophy husband" for the King of Mississippi (which is consistent with the books), you have to start with the premise that he's hotter than all the other guys on the show: Eric, Sam, Bill, Jason - maybe toss in Godric.
I nominate my new crush Johann Urb from Eastwick - he's way too hot, even nerded up, for that show. Judging by his imdb.com listings, he has no problem with sex and nudity.
I think the part of a trophy husband could be played well by Chris Evans, the straight brother of OLTL's out actor Scott Evans. He'd have the right combination of great looks and charming-smarmy attitude that you'd believe a King of Vampires would keep him around.
in my country,there are really really not have much hairy men.(except for Indian people BUT they are not my type.: :)and i like Europe countries men.(because many of them are hairy guys.)that why my friends always laughing at me.(sorry,forgot to say that I'm from Malaysia,hope you know my country!!!.)
I've said it before and I'll say it again
That's Gay's video.

Yes but .....
Umm...
Okay I'm sorry, but you know the word is actually spelled ludicrous right? You were just being ironic or something. Okay.
As for him encouraging people to come out in those ways, he wasn't really serious. Your sarcasm detector is faulty.
But as for the thing about gay men not being able to donate blood, yeah, that's pretty screwed up.
The vaccine
Sounds good but looking at the numbers its possibly just a fluke and there needs to be more testing, Also it only "worked" on one strain of HIV so I hope it wont give people false hope but atleast its a step in the right direction as some researchers are scaling down research in this field.

I'm no bear ...
... so I will defer to you, but I didn't think you had to be "larger", just VERY hairy! You're right tho, I wouldn't call Ben Cohen a bear.
Otter, as in hotter
Oh my otters,
Foxes and Wolves, That sounds way to "furry" for me!
I Don't mind being called a bear but when its the sum total of what people are looking for it irks me.
Though in my youth I did use to go to those "bigger men" clubs so I was part of the problem.
Dunno really
Otters, foxes, wolves and bears
I've gotta admit that I'm a bit out of the loop living on the Western Isles but the whole thing's starting to sound like a petting zoo to me!
Do we get to choose what animal we are? If so, I want to be an orangutan. They eat all the time, their hair's a mess but no-one minds.
You don't get to choose what
"Cohen"? Funny, he doesn't LOOK Jewish....
You know the old saying, "Those pants are so tight you can tell what religion he is?" Well HELLOOOOOO Mr. Cohen!!! Despite the Jewish surname, from the looks of the 2nd picture, I can tell he ain't Jewish.
In fact, Wikipedia confirms this (if you can believe Wikipedia): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Cohen_(rugby_player)
Not into uncut guys (personal preference), but other than that...um...part...oh MY.
Then that
Fantasy casting
OK, if Alan Ball is doing a fantasy casting for a "trophy husband" for the King of Mississippi (which is consistent with the books), you have to start with the premise that he's hotter than all the other guys on the show: Eric, Sam, Bill, Jason - maybe toss in Godric.

Fantasy Casting for trophy husband
I think the part of a trophy husband could be played well by Chris Evans, the straight brother of OLTL's out actor Scott Evans. He'd have the right combination of great looks and charming-smarmy attitude that you'd believe a King of Vampires would keep him around.
Wow....

in my country,there are really really not have much hairy men.(except for Indian people BUT they are not my type.: :)and i like Europe countries men.(because many of them are hairy guys.)that why my friends always laughing at me.(sorry,forgot to say that I'm from Malaysia,hope you know my country!!!.)
