Ahhh...muscle-dudes
in strange and impressive ads in
comic books!
My first soft-porn as a kid!
I wasn't "into" muscles even back then,
but the sheer masculinity of the
physiques.....
....along with the provocative poses and strutting...
...the exposure of legs and abs that I had
not yet experienced in TV wrestling...
..and always, the skimpy, tight-fitting
sheer bikinis, which absolutely
sent my testosterone-filled young self
over the edge!
It was also an introduction into
real-life hyper-masculinity...
a side of maleness with confident,
peacocky beefiness
that I was unaware of in my little world.

| Oh, those leopard-skin briefs! Mmn! |
Having a powerful, idealized man who
was also the object of sexual desire
was quite the revelation to me.
It certainly didn't 'make me' gay, but it
created a level of understanding about
all the feelings I had been having!
There was a certain level of
validation, of acceptableness, in
seeing these pictures in magazines
nearly exclusively purchased
by boys....
...in what even my still-developing little
brain was obviously more than simply
'body-building' advertisements.
No, there was an awareness of a
double-agenda.
No one in their right mind could argue that these ads
were for the eyes of boys who liked girls!
I knew better!
