Gay Old Time

Sometimes it's fun to get pinned
#vintage #gay #wrestling #magazine

The cover for the December 25th 1931 issue of Street & Smith's Sport Story Magazine. The cover illustration features two muscular men wrestling while wearing only wrestling tights and socks. One man grabs the other from behind and pins him to the floor. The top's groin presses against the bottom's behind.

A large Cafe Sign illuminated above a window that is rain streaked. Nearest the window is two men kissing on a date. Outside of the cafe rain is falling and reflecting the light from the windows on the sidewalk outside.

Gay Old Time

Sexologist Alfred Kinsey shocked America by his findings on the prevalence of homosexuality, among other topics. The Kinsey Recipe Book must be a user's manual.
#vintageAd #gay #whiskey

Detail from a vintage ad for Kinsey whiskey. An illustration of two men shown from the chest up. One is wearing an apron and holding a book titled Kinsey Recipe Book. He looks expectantly at the other man, who is sipping of a fruity cocktail with a contemplative air. Text reads: "What are little cocktails made of?"

Thought I’d re-introduce myself on here since I’ve not, erm, ‘tooted’ in a while. So hey! Basically all the info in my bio is still correct, though I guess you can now add ‘writer’ to the list, and below is a picture of my face. Say hi, I don’t bite unless asked to etc., but I’m back for the time being. Tags - I dunno, #gay #Glasgow #Scotland #horror #punk #hardcore #metal #queer #writer etc

Picture of me in a black t-shirt with the word INCISIONS on it and a pic of a loudspeaker below the writing. I have a beard and am smiling slightly.

Silhouettes of palm trees framing a sunrise on a beach. The sky is mostly pink with some blue. Two men are holding hands seen from behind watching the sunrise. In the foreground shadows is the quote "Together is my favorite place to be."

The same image as the firs showing two men holding hands. But this one has different text.

I got this lovely photo from my dad — apparently he was extremely pleased to find my novel Proud Pink Sky in his local library. He even got a librarian to take the picture!

Erotic Mythology (hire me) 💘

It's the #DayOfDionysos here at Erotic Mythology! 🍇

"You, #Bacchus [Dionysos], from thyrsus-bearing India, with unshorn locks, perpetually young, you who frightens tigers with your vine-clad spear, and with a turban binds your horned head."
Seneca, Phaedra 753

🏛 #Dionysos with #Ampelos and satyr, Mosaico de Baco, 3rd century CE Museo Arqueológico de #Sevilla

@antiquidons @mythology
#GreekRomanArt #mythology #Satyrday #mlm #gay

Mosaic of a grim-looking Dionysos riding a chariot drawn by a team of tigers on his way back from his war in India. The god is richly dressed in a long-sleeved purple garment. His head is adorned by a golden circlet and ivy leaves. Next to him stands his lover Ampelos in the nude, also wearing the same golden circlet and grapevine leaves. He has his left arm slung around Dionysos' shoulder. His crotch has been damaged with mosaic tiles missing, possibly on purpose. Next to the wagon walks a satyr with sharp abs and a shepherd's crook in his hand. He wears a kilt and a leopard-skin cloak billows behind him.

Urban Camera

A quick #introduction, although I am not sure how often I will be posting here.

My interests are #photography, #literature #history and #travel and I collect both #books and #antique #photographs.

I identify as #Scottish through ancestry (Grandfather), and am decidedly #gay, #queer, and #LGBTQIA.

I am new to this instance, but not to #Mastodon, and look forward to seeing, to hearing, to reading from around the world and, occasionally, contributing.
