Must Have: Our Favorite Things

It’s Almost Christmas, So No Peeking!

Naughty‘s where it’s at this year. Because we’ve run out of Fs to give lately, why not have a little fun while we can? Over the years, we’ve made it clear we love, love, love men’s underwear and this holiday season, Skull and Bones has a new Burnout lineup that’s making us sweat a bit. Like sit-in-front-of-a-box-fan-on-high kind of sweat. […]

Never Underestimate The Power Of A Good Queer Hairstylist

If you need a final dose of hope before tomorrow’s election, we’ve got you covered. In the new dual memoir, The Old Man & The Queer, the lives of two very, very different people intersect with surprising results. When Jeff Comerchero, 77, the former mayor of Temecula and lifelong Republican finds himself in the chair of nonbinary, tattooed barber E.J. […]

Face It: You’re Not Getting Younger

What gay man doesn’t love a good facial? Anything to help slow the effects of aging, sun damage and giving side-eye to hypocrites and morons. So when we were invited in to the recently opened Alive and Well Dallas, a gorgeously appointed med spa import from Austin, we jumped at the chance. (Or slowly lept a few inches off the […]

The Greatest Hits You’ve Never, Ever Heard

When we received the press release for John Duff‘s greatest hits album, we were admittedly a bit baffled. After all, the wet-dream-hot gay singer only had only a dozen or so singles and one EP, Homo•Sapien. How could there be enough songs to fill Greatest Hits Deluxe Edition, which also happens to be his first full-length album. As we continued […]

Condoms At Your Soon-To-Be-Slippery Fingertips

We live an on-demand lifestyle. We want it fast. We want it easy. And we want it cheap—even better if it’s free. Even though all of the above applies to our sexual encounters and our Amazon Prime addiction, this time we’re talking about something fast, easy and free that’s gonna rock your world—and hopefully your mattress. The Nice Package program […]

Travel Tuesday: Get Dirty On Vacation

We travel anywhere from 10-20 days per month. Yet despite our frequent flights and road trips, we used to notoriously overpack.  In this past few years, we’ve taken the advice of our Gay Carry-on Travel Companions and we realized that it really is possible to pack for several days in a tiny suitcase. What’s always bugged us, though, is how […]

What Happens When The Towels Come Off

In the summer of 2021 when we were still figuring out how/if we could interact naked with other guys—and long before the Mpox outbreak—we dreamed of bawdy bathhouses thanks to the erotic prose of Jameson Farn. His book, Bathhouse Babylon: The Good, The Bad, and the Horny took us deep (really deep) into the world of gay saunas. He thrust […]

Welcome To Gender 101

LGBTQIA+. We firmly fall within the G category of the above acronym (Capital G with three exclamation points, by the way), but it can still be difficult to fully grasp all the gender identities that make up our beautiful rainbow community.   Well, author Lee Wind comes to the rescue! His latest nonfiction book and Queer History Project title, The […]

Shave & A Haircut, Dude Bliss

We’ve been going to the same hair stylist for years. So when we get asked into a new barbershop or salon, we always accept the invitation on behalf of our fancy-footed follicles. (They love mixing things up, you know.) Earlier this spring, Sir Sweeney Barbershop opened in Victory Park on the same block as W Dallas-Victory. It’s the perfect balance […]

Underwear We Love: RuVealing Looks From TEAMM8

Throughout Season 16 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, we’ve been treated to a lot of eye candy. And we aren’t referring only Plane Jane out of drag (yeah, we’ve got the hots for him as a boy even though he’s being “edited” as the season’s biggest bitch). Instead, it’s the ever-sexy guys in the Pit Crew who get our motors running. […]
