Pirate Booty

AbsolutBleu - Summer Booty
The Pirate is one of the B-list homoerotic icons, a swashbuckling rogue with a taste for seduction and an inclination to uncover his upper body in the heat of battle (usually with a supporting cast of similarly half-naked reprobates). AbsolutBleu captures those qualities delightfully in this image with some luscious, plump muscles and an intoxicating cock that's battling to escape from (what looks like) a very cute pair of speedos. (Note the similarity with Muscle Matt's 'balls bra').
The leather boots and belt make authentic-looking fetishistic accessories.

Pairing him with the mythical merman, seems an entirely appropriate choice for a seafarer of yesteryear. It looks like he's made his catch by fishing with a giant dildo* that apparently fulfils the role of bait and hook, attracting suitable prey to suck on it but going into the mouth easier than it comes out. The merman's bound hands are a very acceptable fetish icing on what is already a delicious cake.
Great picture!

(*I confess that the anachronism of a plastic dildo in the age of sail jars a bit with me. 
A belaying pin would be an interesting and equally versatile alternative, a minor geeky quibble).

Mermen don't get the same press as their female counterparts so we can only presume that they have a similar character, i.e. that of an attractive, alluring, but normally, unavailable tempter. I have a small collection of mermen posts at the mitchmen 'Gateway' site plus one by Yomero here which demonstrate there's a fascination for this creature amongst many gay artists. AbsolutBleu's spectacular, spiky tail and ear designs are unusual and suggest this is a rare and exotic specimen indeed, possibly one with a sting! The erotic conundrum is about what happens below the waist of course, where does the fishiness begin? AbsolutBlue seems clear that the mer-anatomy has all the desirable manly traits, including balls if you look closely, and this catch is not going to evade the Pirate's lusty interest. 

Topless Pirates were amongst my earliest drawings as a teenager (but now lost). I featured a Pirate by Julius in  a post last year and there's also one in bareass blogs (No11). They make a memorable appearance in my article on Valentine's art (image 5). Also one handsome devil in my recent Christmas day post  (penultimate image)

Surprisingly, I've only featured AbsoluteBleu here once before, see Winter Snowman

Funny Things Happen at Christmas

This post is especially dedicated to anyone who is alone
 or feels alone this Christmas

photo: Snooty Fox

Jamie always likes a 'lie in' on Christmas day, keeping out of the way of the kids.
But his Mum got him out of bed this year, to take one of her puddings round to Aunt 'Lil.
Jamie decided to go in his car, deliver it, come straight back and jump into bed again,
That meant he didn't need to get properly dressed, just put on an overcoat.
Unfortunately he balanced the pud on his lap to keep it safe, while hurrying there.
and taking a speed hump too fast, resulted in a sudden close encounter with holly and cream.
It spoiled his puddings (and his new overcoat).

 

When Aunt 'Lil saw what a state he was in, she said it was a godsend 
that she'd bought him a nice pair of colourful pyjamas as his present. 
He could put them on to go back in and impress the neighbours.

(Aunt 'Lil' is colour-blind  and Jamie doesn't actually wear pyjamas
but his Mum will make sure he writes a proper 'Thank You' note).


Jamie wasn't exactly thrilled either, with his girlfriend's present of lacy underwear.
 She'd probably want him to wear them and nothing else when he thanked her for the gift.
But it's what might follow afterwards that really worried him.


They weren't as skimpy as the ones his last girlfriend gave him,
 they were completely open at the back.
Jamie still gets cold shivers remembering the chase round the garden
and the roasting she gave him when she caught him.
That involved holly and cream too.

~

Jamie's family always sit down together after dinner to listen to the Queen's speech 
After that Uncle Fred usually makes them all play party games, like charades and
 that one where you have a sticker put on your forehead and guess what it says.

Most of Jamie's family don't know their Napoleons from their Julius Caesars
and Mum got terribly embarrassed one year when she was supposed to be Madonna,
Dad started giving her rather naughty clues about cones and things.
So now they always base the game on family traits, like 'Mum's always knitting'.
It's just as embarrassing, but great fun - when it's not you with the sticker on your head.


As usual Jamie was baffled by his 'trait' and after about 100 incorrect guesses
Uncle Fred decided he ought to give him an easy clue.
He meant to say "it's what your Mum always makes you do" 
What he actually said "it's what your girlfriend always makes you do".

Well, all of a sudden it all went very quiet. 
But Jamie was thinking and suddenly thought about having to wear those lacy knickers,
so he tentatively put his hand inside his jeans and looked at GF for confirmation
She just went bright red, got up and stormed out in a huff.

Jamie was philosophical afterwards, "I wouldn't have got it anyway" he said ambiguously

and at least he wouldn't have to put on those lacy underpants that night.



After all the upset Jamie decided he'd sneak off to the annex, get rid of those lacy undies
 and have a bit of a nap to sleep off his giant Christmas Dinner with wine and pudding

Needless to say, the kids soon missed their Uncle Jamie and sought him out to play.
Unable to rouse him from his alcoholic slumber they soon thought of other mischief.

The youngest girl got a face painting kit this year, the boys tried to get her to use it on Jamie.
But she took fright at his nakedness and ran off crying, leaving the boys to try it out themselves
The result was a charmingly expressed, perfectly genuine tribute to Jamie and his muscles.

Jamie woke up blurry-eyed two hours later and stumbled groggily into the living room.

Mum immediately laughed and told him to make himself look decent
Dad told him to get out of the way of the TV where 007 was causing mayhem.
Granny remarked that he looked just like Kevin Clifton from 'Strictly'

The boys smugly pointed out that Superman wore his pants over the top of tights

Then they kept on afterwards giggling at private jokes about telephone boxes
But Jamie didn't get it at all - not until his shower the following morning.


When the red ink started running down his chest he thought he'd cut himself.
When he realised what it was, called out to the boys
to let them know how funny he thought it was.

~

It's one of Jamie's Christmas jobs to take the kids out for a walk on Boxing Day.
Of course the boys kept ribbing him about being 'Super Jamie'
and he kept complaining about how the paint wouldn't come off.

When they got to the Park, they stopped to watch the models on the boating lake
Jamie was still grumbling about having to wash again, so the boys pushed him in.

Jamie thought it was a hilarious joke, although the water was a bit cold.
and it was a long walk home in a biting wind too,
but Jamie didn't mind, he was a good sport And he didn't want to spoil
 the kid's traditional outing to the Pantomime that evening.

It's the family tradition to dress up for the panto, Mum usually gets the costumes.
But Jamie's sister did it this year, she found a cute Captain Hook outfit for him
and made him pose in it for Instagram, insisting Pirates don't wear underpants.

Jamie is used to being teased by his sister, but the messages he got back were scary.
Several people with names like Shark1958 said they wanted to eat him.
He's just hoping his girlfriend doesn't see the pictures,
she'd make him wear the tights for a role play - and probably tear them.


Instagram from Bondi Beach

One Christmas Jamie tried to get away from it all, by visiting his cousin, down under.
Of course he never thought about packing a sun hat and got burned.
Jeffrey lent him one but Jamie felt a bit foolish wearing it
'cos all the Aussies on the beach could go bare-headed.
But several guys came up to him and told him he looked really cute.
He lost count of how many asked to undo the ribbon on his Christmas package.
Jeffrey said he'd get it out and give it to him when they got home.

 NB 'Bondi' photo is Jase Dean and James Cohen, but I haven't ID'd the photographer

This principal model for this article's illustrations is the hunky Jase Dean.
Obviously my text is entirely fictional
It's not intended to suggest anything about his character or his family
and any resemblance to him or them is completely unintentional
but I'm hoping he is a good sport!

Jase is the subject of my latest 'Hunk Hunt' (continues in Part 2)

Beautifully Bound - Evan Mercy

Evan Mercy @MenOnEdge
This spectacular image is a marvellous demonstration of Shibari artistry. 
The body-shaping imposed on the captive man creates the impression of
a beautiful young god, snared and frozen in mid-flight ,
right down to his sexy, flexing feet. 
Compare with this image of Mercury and you'll see what I mean.

Evan Mercy usually has a cute boyish face (see below)
but in this shot a trick of the camera transforms him into what looks like
a tough, college jock, raging with testosterone and dismayed by his predicament.

This restraint is a progression from the 'Stork' shaping we saw used on Colby Keller .
Combined with a 3 point suspension it totally secures and beautifies this captive,
Leaving him defenceless while he anxiously awaits his moment of trial.

This image is equally striking with a similar sense of flight at first sight.
Taken earlier in the shoot there's less restraint in play here. 
Grounded only by his toes (another nice shot for feet men!) but anchored by the hand job
there's a delicious tension which is both artistic and erotic.


This image demonstrates the erotic possibilities of the 'Stork' leg restraint,
opening the underside and disabling the defence of closing the thighs

Mitchell's Fetish Art for December - Horsewhipped

Mitchell - Jogger Horsewhipped For Trespass
For the landowner it wasn't simply a matter of trespass. When joggers decided to run across his moorland they disturbed the breeding of his game birds. The signs were quite clear - 'Private Property -  Keep Out' but some of these runners still seemed to think they had a right to roam there whenever the fancy took them. The fact that they deliberately ignored his warning signs was, if anything, even more of an annoyance than the damage they caused.

So when he spotted one of the devils cutting across the lower field while he was taking an early morning ride he decided to do something about it. He rode the blighter down, chasing him through the heather until he was breathless and forced to stop and turn to face him. Then he saw who it was, Steven Black. He'd been warned before, now here he was back again and proudly looking back at him, staring him in the eye as though challenging him to do his worst........

I have posted incomplete versions of this picture here before, now I have finished it, incorporating a theme that has been on my plans for a while featuring riding pants and boots. The full story will be published at my Yahoo! Group soon. Meanwhile this image joins an album of spanking-related images (at my Adonis Male, mitchmen Club) that don't belong to full-length stories and so have been pretty much  invisible since they were first published, some of them in groups that no longer exist.
