Etienne - Bath Nite

Plumbers come and go in Gay iconography. We tend to assign a rough masculinity to all manual workmen by default, but plumbers routinely gain admittance to our most private areas, prompting all sorts of erotic possibilities. The nature of their job and its association with spanners, pipes and fluid flow makes for plenty of innuendo and jolly puns.

These days, gay interest seems to lie primarily in the voyeuristic spectacle they offer, whilst fiddling under the sink...

Plumber by jk

Etienne's mid-60s storyette, 'Bath Nite', ca 1965, takes the home invasion ingredient much further. The Kris catalogue shows 6 pictures in the set, but only 3 of them have come down to us in reasonably clear quality.

Etienne - Bath Nite 1 - Trouble In The Shower

This is a blow-up from the Kris Catalogue thumbnail, hence the fuzziness. But, it's reasonably clear what's happening - the water in the shower has stopped flowing. The muscular hunk has got a blockage in his pipes.

Most of us hate a wet shower curtain clinging to our bodies, but here it handily covers his naughty bits. But we do get to see a curious cock-like device (complete with balls) just above the controls. The drain in the floor is surprisingly rough-drawn.

The hunk's, slightly odd but suggestive, open legged pose seen here occurs in other Etienne images too. I wonder if it's connected with his experience as a ballet dancer.

Etienne - Bath Nite 2 - Professional Assistance

The plumber arrives, responding to the hunk's call for help. The workman cuts quite a roguish figure in his rakish cap and coat casually slung over his shoulder, a confident, showy devil*. His skimpy, tight-fitting polo shirt, reveals a tattoo on his bare arm and bulging jeans confirm his butch credentials. No wonder the hunk has dropped his towel! He looks round at him with an appraising eye, limply pointing out the dripping (and suggestive) shower head!

*I suppose you might read more boastfulness into his trading name 'A1 (or top class) Plumber', but it was a standard way of getting a business to the top of telephone listings in pre-Internet days.

The dense, ill-defined shading of this copy may be because the original was painted (i.e. in colour) and not drawn.

Etienne - Bath Nite 3 - Slight Miscalculation

A minor tweak of a spanner (it seems) is all it takes to unexpectedly unleash a jet of water, drenching the plumber and knocking him to the floor. For some reason, his belt has come unbuckled and partly detached from his pants, which also look undone at the fly. Has there just been some hanky-panky distracting him from his task? The hunk's smile might suggest so.

The plumber looks more jock-like and handsome here - vulnerable too, like a regular guy. It's the hunk's turn to look roguish as he closes the door. Has he contrived this unfortunate accident - or is he just an opportunist?

Notice that the size difference between the two men is disguising a simulated contact between the plumbers boot and the hunk's thigh, exactly at crotch level. There's a reciprocal arrangement involving the plumber's (wide open) crotch and hunk's knee being at the same height.

Etienne - Bath Nite 4 - Beyond Repair

I've had to revert to enlarging the catalogue thumbnail here, and it's proved less helpful than before. It looks as if the clumsy plumber has wrought more serious damage to the shower than it appears in the previous picture. There seems to be a hole in the wall with dripping pipework where the shower head was before. There's also a pile of rubble at the hunk's feet as he stoops to pick up the shower head and its (hitherto unseen) feed pipe.

The plumber in the foreground wrings out his jeans, looking very wet or very embarrassed - or both. His muscular arms and the perky cap (back in place on his head), add a nice tweak to his manly embarrassment. However, the shape seen in his wet underwear might suggest that it's the not just his mistake, but the sight of the hunk's bare backside, that is causing his consternation. He's taken off his boots to facilitate the removal of his jeans, so he obviously not that flustered! That enables Etienne to include a typical detail of oversized feet in slack socks.

Etienne - Bath Nite 5 - Off With The Wet

At this point, the plumber has lost his underpants altogether - and his socks. The hunk can be seen peeling one or other of them off his foot, which he is holding up in a very servant-like way. By some curious trick of the enlargement process, he seems to have two faces and to be looking at both the plumber (upper face) and his sock/underpants (lower face), simultaneously!

This scene seems to be taking place inside the shower, indicated by the position of the curtain and that curious, round drainage point on the floor. Shapes to the right of the hunk's raised hand seem to be the oddly-shaped fittings seen in picture 1. They may be contributing to the erotic storyline, but are too indistinct in this blow-up to tell.

The still-dripping plumber looks as if he's going to take off his polo shirt and is clearly not the least embarrassed about his exposed crotch, because his legs are wide open. Nice legs they are too (Etienne's ballet heritage again).

The plumber's roguish, toughness seems to have reasserted itself, with his face showing a hint of stubble. He also appears to be resting his right foot on one of his boots, pushing it into the hunk's crotch. The response of the hunk is obscured by a wet sock, but there's something else going on just above it, which I can't make out...

Etienne - Bath Nite 6 - The Solution

In the end, the hunk gets his shower, thanks to the magnanimous, muscular plumber sprinkling him from a (very camp!) watering can. The tattoo on his arm reveals him to be called Bud, which mellows his hypermasculine aura in an attractive way.

The hunk lounges contentedly, his legs unashamedly open (ballet style again) and in a position to receive a playful splashing onto his groin - and much else, I dare say! He is clearly conscious that Bud's dick is lurking just behind his head and within touching distance of his clasped hands. There's a dark shadow to the left of Bud's 'treasure trail' which may be screening a glimpse of something naughty.

This sexy, bath tub pose is probably inspired by (if not copied from) a 60s beefcake picture in the AMG set of Wally Schillicut bathing*. Etienne has drawn the image well, but the departure from the free flowing, 'drawn from the imagination' style of the rest of the picture, and indeed the rest of the set, jars a little.

The 'Bath Nite' entry in Kris Catalogue No 2

This plumbing story has a predecessor image, also by Etienne, from about 3 years earlier, in 1962. It's clearly the prototype for 'Bath Nite' but tells a slightly different story.

DirtyMocchaBB - Let Me Finish Reading This Book

As a seasoned, much decorated veteran, Tim was irked when his new Commander ordered him to wear skimpy shorts at all times while on duty. Reading through the Unit's Manual on Disciplinary Procedures, he began to understand why.

DirtyMocchaBB - No, Please Don't Pull My Pants Down

It was an elite unit, so discipline on the base was tight.

Dawson knew what to expect when he got back late from leave.

The Guards seized any opportunity to practice their rope work,

as a preliminary to questioning prisoners.

DirtyMocchaBB -You Can Keep Me Tied Up Like This

Once they had a man restrained, the security squad was noted for its thoroughness, stripping the veneer of defiance from offenders. They didn't use kid gloves. In fact, they didn't use gloves at all, which were not deemed to be in keeping with the masculine ethos of the unit. Consequently, when drugs were suspected, not every one was keen to follow investigatory procedures to the letter.

DirtyMocchaBB - That Is Cutting It Too Close

Trained to resist severe interrogation and pain if captured, these elite soldiers were often drafted in the Army's own, sometimes fanciful, research programmes, as guinea pigs. Knowing how the Army treated their own men, they were never quite sure whether they'd get out with everything intact.

DirtyMocchaBB - Doc help Me, I'm Getting Bigger

Another quest by the Army to develop 'Super Soldiers' using modified hormones was cancelled after it resulted in uncontrollable levels of fraternisation between the men in the barracks.

The researchers were loath to sacrifice their work and took the opportunity to sell the formula on to illicit, civilian clinics. Unfortunately, the operatives there often lacked the necessary expertise in dosage, with predictable results.

DirtyMocchaBB - Being A Doctor, I Love Hunky Men

Embarrassing rectification episodes frequently followed in more mainstream, (and supposedly reputable), medical establishments.

Bikers are much misunderstood creatures, most of them are shy, silent types, not hell-raisers. Fond of the company of men but wary of women. So, when Jim's 'enhancement' went wrong, his embarrassment in front of the female Doctor was off the scale.

Already a great looker, that trait made him even more attractive, especially to maternal ladies. But it did not attract much sympathy from this ultra-professional and slightly disreputable practitioner, not known to pass up an opportunity to see a man naked and nervous.

I'm glad to say that this artist's fem-dom imagery does not feature scanty clothing or luscious seducers.

DirtyMocchaBB - Disgusting Behaviour, Shall I Strip You Here?

It has to be admitted, that some biker recipients of the faulty hormone therapy developed behaviour of a most regrettable nature, in the worst traditions of 'shock 'em', antisocial activities - like riding their bikes into convent churches, for example.

They were not the first men to discover that the so-called weaker sex often has hidden steel. Far from being upset and intimidated, the Nuns called the Police. The bikers were arrested by a female cop leading a specially set up shaming squad, who arrived complete with lights and camera to record the bikers' humiliations. Which were to be slowly stripped of their leathers and much else in front of their victims.

DirtyMocchaBB - The Biker's Convention

When the Biker's convention rolled into town with the usual cacophony of noisy, stuttering exhausts, the Women's Guild decided to take action. Squads of women, staked out the Hotels and targeted those men with particularly offensive behaviour.

A group of three hairy beasts were cornered in their room by stern old ladies and quickly turned into pussies. The bikers were forced to strip off their smelly leathers and don matching, red underpants. Then they had to crawl across the room to kiss their own boots, newly requisitioned by their elderly, lavender-scented tormentors.

DirtyMocchaBB -Men Loving Another

While this mayhem was going on, two half-naked bikers escaped from their room and cowered in the showers, where they discovered mutual support mechanisms that would have risked them being booted out of their Club if any of their comrades had seen them.

I find this image highly erotic. If the boots are cropped off, the pair morph into an artistic diving pair, sexily consoling each other after an 'off' dive.

DirtyMocchaBB -Please Let Me Go, I'll Do Anything

The police did nothing to intervene with the bikers, they were too busy with apprehending young, speeding motorists who were much easier to deal with than rampaging women and rowdy, motorcycle gangs. The younger generation could usually could be relied upon to compliantly provide innocent entertainment into the small hours before being released, without charge.

DirtyMocchaBB -I Will Enjoy Taking Off Your Clothes And...

Most of these young men kept silent, knowing that an unsympathetic 'Serves you right' or an even worse (painful) fate awaited them if they revealed their indiscretions to their parents.

Some Fathers who did learn of their son's sordid experiences, however, took exception and then revenge. Relatively innocent young cops on night patrol found themselves mysteriously targeted as surrogate examples and removed to a place of captivity without benefits.

DirtyMocchaBB - I Love All That Fur On You

Some captive cops found their treatment at the hands of irate Fathers (and sometimes their sons too) less unpleasant than might have been expected. It was only afterwards when they realised there might have been cameras recording all their responses that they started to feel uncomfortable about it and anxious for their careers.

DirtyMocchaBB - A Kiss Is Just A Kiss

Maybe a kiss is just a kiss, but some kisses are more intense than others. This seemingly chance encounter between a muscle hunk, minding his own business and an opportunist passer-by, oozes with erotic appeal. An unlikely pair on the face of it, each feeling out the other, perhaps taking the first step into a passionate affair, as time goes by. The stereotyping is daring and very powerful.

DirtyMocchaBB - Guess What's Coming Off Next

Room Service never used to be like this, but maybe I've been going to the wrong hotels! I wonder what else is on the menu? It looks like touching is 'off' tonight, but imagine having a cutie, bell boy stripping off for you in your bed. This is a marvellously understated image leaving the viewer to imagine how things will progress.

DirtyMocchaBB - The Coach Enjoyed His Inspection

How To Get Into Tight Pants if you've got a big backside.
Get the coach to give you a hand, of course.
But unless you want to curry favour with him,

be alert to his famous, underhand tactics.

DirtyMocchaBB - I Must Find The Secret Codes

This artist's work is sprinkled with really attractive, non-erotic images, like this one of a (hunky) adventurer seeking out a clue to an ancient, lost treasure in a dusty, old library. The atmosphere and colouring is terrific. The symbolism of the shaft of sunlight is a trifle corny, but great visually.

DirtyMocchaBB - No-One Can free You From My Spell

The previous picture and its colouring co-ordinates nicely with this image that references the legendary genie in the lamp of '1001 Arabian Nights'.

The neat twist here is that the servant of the lamp does not live inside it as some airy-fairy magical vapour, but is, in effect, the lamp's companion, guardian, lover even. In other images of this set, the servant has the lamp's sinuous spout in his mouth as if he is sucking it.

It looks like a very valuable lamp, too. Is this the secret treasure the adventurer seeks, and if he finds it will he, too, become enslaved?

DirtyMocchaBB - I Think We Look Real Good

A nice group of real, hunky cowboys.
They find new arrivals irresistible.
(Provided they look just like them).

Such is life!

DirtyMocchaBB - I Have Been Waiting For This Moment (1)

This construction site opportunist is more open.
About both his preferences and intentions!

DirtyMocchaBB - I Have Been Waiting For This Moment (2)

The unlikeliness of seducing this handsome prey, in broad daylight, on a building site makes you imagine there must be some disreputable leverage at work. But we all have our kinks, preferences

- and skeletons in our closet.

DirtyMocchaBB - Please Queue Up While I Clean Your Body

Perhaps this sexy, building sight ritual has something to do with it.

The men look as if they put up with it just to please the boss.

He wants his hunky workers to look clean and smart.

But, it's also a good excuse to get close up and personal.

DirtyMocchaBB - You Asked For It

The boss of this office seems to have similar odd ideas about keeping his staff clean. It's bad enough when the office cleaners come in and sweep up while you're working. When they come in to vacuum you personally, it's far more distracting.

And more than a little disturbing

You can see this operative is single-minded, not about to let project deadlines deflect him from his allotted task. This employee must submit to being cleaned! I suspect the underwear exposure (and vacuuming that will follow, down under) is a gratuitous punishment for resisting.

DirtyMocchaBB - This is the beginning

All controversial office procedures have the same ambiguity baked in: just whose benefit is this for, exactly?

The artist's caption is even more doom-laden than mine. It looks as if there's not going to be much privacy allowed either. I wouldn't want to be in Peterson's shoes, but I wouldn't mind making a tactile check inside his shirt!

DirtyMocchaBB - I Feel Fit And Good

This worker looks shell-shocked. Not wanting to be found lacking in the breast scan, he took a triple dose of muscle enhancement powder last night. Now he wonders if it was a trifle hasty.

Like AG-Rens Transformers, he's busting out all over.

Not only that, his shorts, worn at the boss's insistence, are now so tight that they are extremely uncomfortable to sit in. But if he stands up, they are going to become an irresistible homing beacon for his wandering hands.

DirtyMocchaBB - Worship My Feet

I can't say if this is an employee perk or the exploitation of a PA. You never can tell. The AI construction of the boss's figure is a bit off, but I couldn't resist that splendidly, face-smothering foot and the open crotch beyond. Tight, grey suits are almost obscenely erotic.

DirtyMocchaBB - You Seem A Little Lost, Can I Help You?

It's easy to get confused when you join a new organisation, but Dale was completely flummoxed when the boss relieved him of his shirt at their first meeting and strapped a collar round his neck. It wasn't how he thought Office hierarchies worked.

It was so unexpected after he'd been give a welcoming drink of fresh coffee. Everyone else gave him the lousy stuff out of the machine, but the boss prepared one from scratch, just for him. Afterwards, he felt unable to resist his instructions for some reason.

Despite his compliant mood, however, he just couldn't bring himself to take off his trousers. He got as far as undoing the top button, then froze. Something from his upbringing wouldn't let him do it.

DirtyMocchaBB - Oh No, My Briefs Are Showing!

"Never mind" purred the boss, "I obviously miscalculated your dose. But I'm happy to do it for you, as you are such a promising prospect". He knelt and slowly undid Dale's zip.

"Nice red briefs" he commented, "but I'm afraid only white underpants are permitted in this office. I'll have to confiscate them, but you can come back for them, when you finish work. I'll even put them back on for you".

"Yes Sir. Thank you Sir", Dale replied obediently, not realising he'd be using that phrase a lot during the end of day review, which he hadn't been told about yet.

Some of this artist's captions are priceless, others simply baffling!

DirtyMocchaBB - Come On, Give In

This was one such daily review, I'm told, though reportedly not much work was discussed. There's a marvellous controlling strength in the boss man here. I dread to think what the title means, the poor wretch in the wheelbarrow position seems to have 'given in' quite a lot already. The sacrifices one makes for career advancement!

DirtyMocchaBB - I Need A Ride

It was not unknown for the long-suffering (male) citizens to be relieved of their clothing on their way home. Everyone else on the train looked the other way, of course, calculating that the poor sap would need to borrow money or cadge a lift from someone, and it certainly wasn't going to be them driving a naked man home. That's the effect commuting has on gayest and kindest of men.

DirtyMocchaBB - You Are Arousing Me

Seemingly good Samaritans sometimes offered a hand,

but often turned out to want payment in kind.

Or payment in pants, you might say.

DirtyMocchaBB - My Neighbour Says He Loves My Tan Lines

Even in their own homes, men were not safe. The creeping criminalisation of secret, voyeuristic, picture-taking drove those addicted to the sport out into the open. There was no law that forbade brazenly man-watching someone on his own property (paparazzi-style). Just as long as they didn't touch and didn't publish anything, the police regarded any complaint as just a 'domestic'.

DirtyMocchaBB -Two Cowboys, Hot and Hunky

I'm closing this selection with another cowboy picture that is sensuous, romantic and very erotic. The styling may be pure AI, but it's created colours and texturing that make the picture memorable in its own right. One for the living room wall.
