Mitchell - Double Manipulation (M855)

 I've got out of the habit of posting my own pictures here, recently, although I do post them regularly on 'X', which is not entirely logical! This post is from my 'Caps and Collars' story which is temporarily paused at the moment. It's a new scan.

Ferret, the captive detective is being tested by The Doctor and his evil henchman, the Black Trainer. It's all purely out of professional interest, the Doctor would claim. This manipulation is, in effect, a deconstructed (is that the right word?) Boston Crab. Unlike many ring moves, this one looks as if it hurts. It does bring up Ferret's buns a treat in those backless briefs. No gain without pain!

Classic Homoerotic Images 11 - Seven Seas, Wet Swimmers

  

 During the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, British gay men were given a nightly treat as they settled down to hear the Weather Forecast on the TV. It was preceded every night by a sponsorship ad showing a group of swimmers in red singlets and black shorts standing in the pouring rain with their wet clothes clinging to their muscular bodies. Then they ran jumped into Lake Windermere. There were other themes, but they hardly ever were screened in this position

Gay men loved it. For innocents, still learning about their sexuality and fearful of being different from their friends, seeing this imagery on a respectable TV program must have helped them understand it was OK to look at men's bodies.

AI Art by AussieGuys

a

Rolls-Royce 1 by AussieGuys

 AussieGuys art is an eclectic collection mainly focussed on conventional AI Hunk-dom, but this is an interesting recent, development. Two guys embarrassingly stranded in their expensive car. I've posted a captioned version at 'X'.

 

Rolls-Royce 15 by AussieGuys

The artist has produced an astonishingly large number of variations in this Rolls-Royce series, all based around this scenario. It's sexy but difficult to decipher what's actually going on. 

 

Best Friend 2 by AussieGuys

As you might expect from an Aussie, there's plenty of beach fun imagery. I'm attracted to the shorts in this image. The yellow dangling rope is a worrying sign that AI might be secretly gay.

 

Big Fish by AussieGuys

 Beach boys don't have it all their own way, this is a marvellous study of more mature masculinity with a scary dash of phallic symbolism. Shame about the purse, though.

 

Couple 40 by AussieGuys

I think it gets a bit carried away with bulk here, but the muscle hunks parading in wet underwear is a nice idea. There's a sense of these buddies thinking of casting their own lines for a catch they've seen further down the beach (see below).
 

Couple 38 by AussieGuys

Maybe it's these two cheeky chappies that they're checking out. They've got bulk of their own to flaunt, tantalisingly disguised and yet emphasised by the patterns of their sagging pouches, which are slung oh, so low. 

 

Polycule, We Are One - 30 by AussieGuys

 This is a romantic, but very sexy image of a spontaneous kiss in the surf. The facial expressions and postures of the outer men are fascinating. Are they embarrassed? Disappointed? Jealous? Whichever is the case, they don't seem inclined to make up a second pairing with each other.

Apparently a polycule is a network of people connected in a polyamorous dynamic, so there. 

 

Polycule, We Are One - 4 by AussieGuys

 This expresses the same idea, slightly more subtly, with matching trunks substituting for linked hands as an expression of closeness between the right-hand pair - or perhaps revealing a lack of it. Did AI actually dream up that little twist? The body-hugging trunks themselves are rather less subtle and may distract you from contemplating the 'polydynamics' in depth.  

  

Couple Beach by AussieGuys

There isn't an image that can't be improved by taking the guys' pants off 'em. This one is also tender and romantic, with a hand clasp that seems to signal deeper feelings than casual friendship. Unfortunately, this idyllic, surging moment is about to be interrupted by a tsunami-like wave. That's AI for you, no sense of proportion.

 

AborgPinkLiz 5 by AussieGuys

This native Australian is certainly prepared for the big one (so to speak). He's another, pleasing example of the variety of men represented in this artist's pictures. 
 

Surfer's Pet Dolphin 9 - by AussieGuys

Check out this cheery chubbie.
Love the stuffed pouch.

 

Dreamtime 4 - by AussieGuys

The determination to represent Australian-ness justifiably includes an admiring flash back to the ancient, local cultures. Some think images like this are degrading and insulting, but we all have ancestors like this. The beauty is idealised here, but the originals had an ability to survive in an unforgiving environment that would compare favourably with many of the i-phone generation.

 

Australian Football League - by AussieGuys

The Aussies are formidable competitors in most sports, as English cricket fans know, all too well, but Australian Rules Football is a unique, fast flowing sport, that attracts gay admirers due to the skimpy shorts they all wear. This leaping pose with the corny, 'Reach For The Stars' subtext looks like it's an AI stock image, but the ultra-short shorts transform it, revealing an expanse of muscular thigh and a glimpse of the jungle-like interior for fans of up-shorting.

 

Cisboy 12 - by AussieGuys

One of Aussieguys' quirks is dressing some of his handsome models in fem-style underwear. The title, I presume, is a modernisation of 'sissy', owning the insult and, in the setting of a public beach, making it a Pride-style, defiant assertion of identity. 

That's fair enough, but my perverse temptation is to pair it with the earlier image of muscle guys in wet underpants ...(see below).

This image fails for me, slightly, because AI has simply fitted the lace fabric into the lines of conventional male attire. Adapting it to imitate the different shape produced by a female body would create a more startling contrast.

 No-one knows the secret thoughts that lurk in the hearts of even the most butch of tough, Australian, hypermasculine personas!
 
Jock 33 by AussieGuys

It may be that the muscle-heads are being sized up themselves 
by one, very excited bather in the water! He has a confident air that might make him more than a handful for them.
 
BeachBaby60 by AussieGuys

 This young man further down the beach also proudly shows his colours. He, too, has a look that suggests that he is adept at finding opportunities for all that stuff he's packing in that impressively load-bearing pouch-ette.
 
Jock 174 by AussieGuys

Just when you thought beach wear couldn't get any skimpier! 
It looks like this guy earned his athletic laurels in Starbucks. 
As you might note from the picture serial number, there are lots more of these at AussieGuys' website (link below). 
 
Couple 8 by AussieGuys

 This take on skimpiness, 
applying it to shorts, appeals to me. More than the semi-implied transparency, in fact. There was a fad for shorts/trunks like this a few years back, but they don't seem to turn up so often now. Maybe that's because they have too much of a tendency to turn downwards, once you start walking!
 
Big Kid 76 by AussieGuys
 
I ought to give the last word to a more conventional representation of Aussie manhood, with a slightly wild, slightly gauche personality and fierce patriotism. Never mind the ducks, mate, come and rescue me!

Cheers!

Targeted


 Phil was looking forward to an evening with his newly purchased beefcake magazine. It had a wrestling special this month. He showered up and then changed into a clean jockstrap. It was well-worn and soft. He loved the way it enclosed him at the front, but felt exposed and vulnerable behind. 

He liked to read, while lying on his stomach, and spread a duvet on the floor to lie on. The curtains were drawn across the window for privacy, but it was too hot to close it completely and the curtains occasionally stirred in the evening breezes. A breath of the cool air kissed his ass cheeks sending a delicious sensation through his body. Slowly, he leafed through the magazine, becoming totally absorbed and increasingly excited. He rubbed himself against the duvet. The pictures were very good this month.

Suddenly two arms reached from behind him and grabbed his hands, pinning them to the floor. "Keep still" a deep toned voice said. Phil felt the weight of a body settling on his back, bare skin touching his own. 

"What is it, what do you want?"  Phil's voice trembled fearfully, but he amazed himself by not panicking. 

The stranger's hands tightened over his. "I've been watching you for some time" he said. "Seeing the window open tonight, I thought I'd drop in and introduce myself". He chuckled, "Yeah, introduce myself".

"Maybe I'd better get dressed" Phil said in a shaky voice.

The stranger laughed "You already are, that's what drew me in". He released one of Phil's hands and Phil felt him lift slightly as if adjusting something. Then he felt the weight pressing down again, the warmth of a chest on his back - and a touch on his backside cheeks too. And then came something in-between.

Targeted


 Ryan could remember going to bed at his usual time. He'd felt exhausted after a long training session with his football team-mates. 

Then nothing until awoke and found himself strapped to some sort of frame in a dark, damp, dungeon-like place.

There was a strange feeling at his groin, a dull ache, it felt as if his tackle was being squeezed by something very tight. 

"Welcome, Mr Hawke!", a voice boomed out, "we are ready to begin your induction".

Ryan could just about make out a masked figure in the murk.

He felt a stab of fear.

Artist unknown, I'm afraid.
