Twenty years after Keith Haring wrote in his journal that AIDS had marked the end of street pick-ups and seven years after Manhunt began, cruising is making a comeback in New York. A new breed of young gays I spoke to last week say they’re learning about the look-back, the stop, the double-look back, and the approach all over again. On the heels of this news comes word that the hanky code, the popular 70’s phenomenon where gay men placed one or more colored handkerchiefs in their…
When we got our huge donation of vintage gay porn a few weeks ago, the first thing we did was start to go through the pages of Drummer Magazine, the ultra-classic gay S&M publication that taught a generation of gay men how to make their slaves happy. Above, an image from Drummer’s ‘Tough Shit’ humor page from Volume Four, Issue 35, 1980, which featured unintentional scat-themed advertisements. Are you ready to make the switch?
Our new intern Richard flies through the air with the greatest of ease in this video of his performance this Friday at the Trapeze School in New York City. We’ve always had super-talented interns, but never one with this particular talent. Bravo!

Tomorrow night if you’re in London, be sure to make your way to the aptly named Swallow Street gallery for the opening of Tearoom, an exhibition of found footage of men having sex with other men in a public restroom in a Mansfield, Ohio restroom in 1962. It was created by policemen eager to catch and prosecute gay men under the harsh Ohio sodomy laws. Police set up a two way mirror and filmed men having public sex. Many of these men went to jail for terms ranging from one to twelve…
A little over a year ago, photographer Pedro Isztin sent us an arousing image of a handsome uncut ginger boy from his ‘Canadian Rocks’ series. Now he’s returned with more sexy men posing on rocks. This subject, Mike, looks like he could be the ginger from the first picture 30 years later. Here’s Pedro to explain his picture:
‘I think that rocks and males are some of the most intriguing and beautiful things to feel out for and look at on this entire planet. Last year I…
Canadian artist Daniel Barrow uses an overhead projector and drawings transferred to mylar transparency to create moody, semi-animated films. Daniel’s latest work, Every Time I See Your Picture I Cry, is about a gay Helen Keller fanatic who rummages through people’s trash and has a serial killer stalking him. When he was in New York for the Art Book Fair last month, Daniel came over to the BUTT table and we talked about Liberace, having sex on a suspension bridge, and the…

BUTT’s gay pride weekend at the Ace in Palm Springs got off to a bang Friday night with about 40 horny guys crammed into a hotel room eagerly awaiting the legendary porn director Joe Gage, who came to screen clips from his long career and answer questions about ‘the industry.’ Joe, still super sexy at 65, arrived at the event 15 minutes after wrapping production on his latest Titan Media film, The House Beyond Lover’s Lane. The crowd listened attentively as…
