Gotta get a hoss! - 2 The Greenhorns

The Horseless Ride punishment don't work too well on Greenhorns.


They might kit themselves out in fancy boots
but they usually ain't got much real idea about riding a hoss (see comment below!),
or the same amount of pride about their masculinity as the big fellas do.
Nice to look at but too easy as punishment targets to deliver the same pleasure.

Tommy Defendi in Stud Ranch
Them youngsters do like to show off though and once they've seen horny studs naked in the saddle
they often want to feel the well ridden leather between their own bare thighs
Many's the time a lad is caught having snuk out for an early morning 'woody' ride
Cheeky I call it.



When whippersnappers overstep the mark, the saddle doubles up as a naughty chair.
The old hands love to see how it transforms youthful cockiness into sullen resentment.
All them impregnated man-juices whiff a bit after few hours bum-warming in a hot barn! 

 

Some exponents of the 'naughty saddle' punishment like to banish the offender
 to a far corner of a remote field. A spell of nekkid loneliness is pretty sobering
for a young fella and after a day in the sun it gets a mite chilly too when night begins to fall.
 That's when anxiety sets in. They try to attract the attention and sympathy of passing riders.
It usually works. Heh, heh. 'Cos the hands draw lots to see who gets to rescue the cub!



Pretty soon the tenderfoots start to learn how the Ranch works.
How hands returning to the stables after a day in the saddle are always a mite horny
and if they butter up and wait for them, looking humble and chastened,
they'll probably escape kitchen duties that evening!

Unfortunately....

When you're being strict with young men, there's always a chance of rebellion,
The one who won't accept the punishment.


Them colts have to be tethered and tamed,
jest like an unbroken horse. Yes Sir!


Once them ropes slowly impregnate with the man's own sweat
 they tighten so much, there just ain't no escapin'!

 
I'm a-telling you, after a day out in the sun,
 them rebels become a lot more agreeable!


and by that time, there's only one way to slacken off the stranglehold of the rope!

These last 4 images are from the Colt Studios Video 'Stud Ranch - Hung N' Strung' (2010)
It's an imaginative storyline and Zach Alexander and Dayton O'Connor's youthful hunkiness makes up for their lack of true cowboy grit. Sadly the generally available stills, mostly taken from a distance in the open air, don't compare with the best studio quality. Inevitably too, the bondage sequence is all too brief. Despite this, it's one of my favourite S&M scenes in a genre (cowboy bondage) 
that's rarely covered in modern erotica.

Gotta get a hoss! - 1 The Big Boys

A Cowboy without a horse is a sad state of affairs.
A Cowboy with a Saddle but no horse is ripe for some good old leg-pulling.
and what better way to punish transgressions of the cowboy code 
than to send the offender off on a horse-less ride?

Kurt Kittridge (Colt)
Kurt Kittridge illustrates the general principles of the joke in this image from Colt Studios.
Minimal clothing is permitted, on a hot day a hat is advisable.
Victims must ride hard enough to work up a sweat
and christen the saddle with other bodily fluids in the process.
For a muscular man like this, it's a humiliating farce
But making rude hand gestures to the mocking ranch hands
will only only encourage them to do their worst.


This man is equally big and butch, but his response is more dignified,
aloof even, above it all, as he concentrates, rising to the challenge
The saddle here is balanced precariously on the top rail of a fence
so everyone can get a good view of him
- especially if he loses his balance and falls off 

Randy Ricks - 4 Horsemen
It's best to seat oneself carefully on the saddle,
 jokers sometimes 'spike' it with small burrs or thorns.
That can turn the ride into a traumatic experience,
 a humiliation for even the toughest of frontiersmen!


The best response is probably to look as though you're enjoying it all
 and keep your ass in the air just in case
But that's not without risk either, since gleaming, wiggling,chunky buns
have been known to trigger a 'gold rush' in sex-starved, cowboy communities 


If the saddle is set up in a remote corner of the yard like thisthe cowboy knows he's really in trouble
With the saddle so close to the ground and facing into the corner he can't perform the necessary riding action without raising his backside and providing the most enticing of displays to the watching men.

He's big enough to look after himself but they have lust and numbers on their side 
and plentiful supplies of rope!

Little Known Incidents of WWII - No 7. 'Flashing The Flesh'

I was extolling the revealing virtues of Army shorts in recent posts.
The covers of 1960's war comics often flashed soldier flesh,
in spite of the impressionable ages of their readers.


 When I was younger I was much attracted to blond, young men, probably influenced by the West Coast surfing craze of the time and a more specific, schoolboy crush. I suspect I might have found this character's extravagant hair a bit too blond, but he's clearly intended to press buttons with his audience and I immediately suspected a gay hand behind the picture (as is my wont!) 

The short sleeves and badges, the exotic (to a Brit!) Australian labelling and the sensual skin tones all hint of erotic intent. The stretch creases on the far leg of the shorts seem very emphatic too. Wearing shorts in the jungle seems daring anyway, with all those creepy crawlies lurking around. That leg-up pose and the sheer briefness of his shorts (with just a hint of sexy, ragged hems) speaks for itself. 

But if you look at his raised left leg, what else do you see? 
At first I thought the shorts were billowing wildly outwards and revealing naked buttock inside. Then I realised that his (revealed) bottom cheek looked too small for that, but perhaps the lower roundness of it had been hastily camouflaged by the artist so to look like the inside of his shorts. Still a bit racy though!

Eventually I saw that if you disregard the thick, curving shadow that seems to define the inside edge of the shorts (continuing the hem line curving down from the top of his thigh), then a smaller triangular billow, just as is implied by the skin colouring, becomes more obvious. This altered version by me, with the shadow removed, illustrates what I mean. It wouldn't be there in a photograph, there's no scientific basis for it being there. When it's removed, however, the clothed buttock is still sexy!

Perhaps that was the artists dilemma. But I prefer to imagine that he wanted to live up to the Commando tag of the series and suggest to his readers a bare fleshy buttock!

As I have remarked before, he didn't have to draw it like that did he?
That comment might equally be applied to the next cover image. 


Just the title of this story would get the pulse racing for many men, but the image is something else. Once again we see a soldier in unusually short shorts, with just the teeniest hint of ragged edge to suggest they were once much longer (they would have been in real life, but don't think I'm complaining!) 

Closer inspection of his shorts (well, we all look don't we?) reveals some odd details. The fly opening finishes well above his groin, so having a pee would entail dropping them round his knees or ankles - with all those sex-starved comrades around! Maybe that's why he 's shortened the legs, to get it out that way. The area below his fly is confused, it's blurred and bears little relation to the contours of his body, erotic or otherwise. The blue-ish area between his legs is just plain wrong and the dark shadows and open leg just to the right of it end abruptly (like his fly seems to). 

Conclusion? This was once a much more interesting picture that has been doctored.

The open legged, kneeling pose is not devoid of eroticism either and it's not a standard firing position. Oddest of all, he's straddling rocks, one of which is touching his inner thigh and looking rather like a buttock and the other having a very suggestive shape of a different kind! 
An artist's revenge on the censor?


  For some reason the jungle seems to give even greater flesh-flashing opportunities.
I think the warm, humid atmosphere must rot the cloth.

There's no need to look for hidden eroticism in this picture. The soldiers tattered threads, square jaw adorned with stubble, hunky (and hairy?) bared arms and menacing weapon all adequately deliver the goods and the artist has even given him ginger hair for niche tastes. Personally I think he's too well tanned to be a ginge, it must be out of a bottle.


A handsome GI lost in the jungle for my American readers.
This is from a different book but it looks like the same artist is responsible.
This chap's even showing a nice bit of chest hair, but that part of his body still in uniform is beyond reproach or insinuation from me. Very straight. No funny shaped rocks even.

The full cover below shows he's in a very dangerous situation,
allowing us to imagine him being captured (and stripped and tortured?)

This final example is not flesh-baring at all, but at first sight it looks like it is, with the charging soldier seeming to show a bared right leg, like a mason. It's actually a trick of the shading but that shadow and the highlighting of the leg below is really very odd. 

As I may have said before, the artist didn't have to draw it like that did he?
(I'll pass over the suggestive angling of the gun pointing up between his legs from the trench!).

Art by Justin

Justin - Take it like a man
 I have upgraded my 2009 A-Z article about Justin, replacing vanilla details of his images with the full pictures (i.e. uncensored). I have also corrected his link in the index of artists which previously routed to Julius (!).

The example above is a more recent work in which he experiments with CGI techniques.
The precision slotting together of rimmer and rimmee here, coupled with a gorgeous suspension arrangement and magnum-size heavy-duty tit weights can only be described as high fetish. Excellent. 

Compared with his freehand technique, there's a degree of simplification in the imagery and separation of the characters which is not without merit but the manic, lustful energy of the earlier works seems to have faded too, which is a shame.

Later images still take on a distinctly Ulf-like character. I'm not sure about that development!

Alex Oliver - The Red Trunks 3


After two pastings, Alex has had enough of rough wrestlers and is going home,
but Damien Rush has other ideas,
He's obviously heard good reports about Alex's magical, red trunks
He cadges a lift and, when it is safe to do so, chloroforms him


Alex is transported back to the ring in which he has already suffered so much.
He looks just as sexy in denim but Damien is keen to see what all the fuss is about.
Undoing another man's belt and zip is never as easy as you think it will be,
even if your hand is not trembling with excitement, let alone inside a glove


Eventually Damien gives up and shreds the denim instead
Getting a satisfying glimpse of red. That's what all the fuss is about

No sooner has he got Alex undressed than he starts to come round
Damien wraps his legs around him enjoying the victim's squirming as he goes under again.


Now at last he is free to appreciate all Alex's attractions
His smooth, chunky build and nicely padded trunks

Not forgetting the fabled rear view


Alex straddles the centre rope, as though he was just climbing out of the ring to leave 
It's an erotic conjunction and his thighs look terrific here, the red trunks gloriously pouched
 He seems to be consoling a distinctly anguished Damien, placing a hand on his thigh.
But Damien is to be playing for keeps, restraining him now with a chain around his neck


Will Alex escape or will Damien keep him for ever?

 In 'The Red Shoes' story by Hans Christian Anderson, a vain girl is compelled to keep dancing by her enchanted red ballet shoes as a punishment for wearing them in inappropriate places. At times it seems that Alex is in danger of suffering an equivalent fate but I know of no other sightings of those enchanting red trunks. So far.......
