Simplicity….
I’ve always been greedy. I have always placed quantity over quality, in all things. My CD collection is vast, hundreds of titles yet I only really seem to play a small percentage of those. It’s all about numbers, having more than I ...

I went to a gay bar…
Last night, I plucked up the courage and went on my own into a gay pub and I cannot tell you how scared I was, well maybe you know. I had been circling the establishment for days, walking down to it then past it then round again and past it and if ...
Come out come out…
I came out today to my two closest straight friends and they took it in their stride and of course as is so often the case, they already knew. So yeah, we were talking about something or other and one of them happened to mentioned someone who looked ...
Pride…
Today, I ventured out to my first Pride event. Oxford Pride. It was a wet and dreary day and I think this reflected on the amount of people who turned up. Still, it was well worth going if only to see a man wearing make-up and wearing white rugby...

Realisations….
It’s been a strange old day if the truth be known. I got angry because I was bored. I didn’t want to walk into town because I wanted to save the bus fare for ciggies then acted out because it seemed like such a long trek so I threw a ...
One lump or two?
Quite a few people now either know I’m a poofter or heavily suspect it. When going to buy coffee the other day I bumped into someone I knew (who knows about me) who was also looking to get themselves a cup so we headed over to the nearest Cos...
Words don’t come easy…

Is this love or confusion?
I came out to my Mum again today, probably the 10th or so time I’ve had to do this. She seems to think that if I don’t mention it for a while that it’s gone away but it’s never going to go away. I told her that I’ve pu...

My brain hurts
I’ve been doing some thinking, yeah my brain hurts now and everything. I was wondering if I could be a bit bi because I do find women beautiful and can see that certain women are sexy. I even find myself physically attractive to some women ...
Bottoms Are Tops!
I love bottoms. By that, I’m not talking the receptive partner during anal sex. I’m talking about bums, buns, butts, the derrière, the posterior, the rump. The male bum is a thing of beauty. There’s nothing nicer than seein...

I was looking at the graphic on Mr Fabulous‘ blog which says ‘Gay by Nature - Absolutely Fabulous By Choice‘ and also thinking on an article I saw at Queerlife.co.za today which you can read here. I really don’t like hearing a...
It’s a shame
