New York magazine: "The Gay TV Producer Subsisting on Sex Parties"
People still live this way? It's like a page out of Larry Kramer's "Fa66ots," or if Bret Easton Ellis wrote a Fire Island novel.
DAY FOUR
8:00 a.m. I meet my boyfriend and we head to Fire Island for the weekend. We spend the morning on the beach drinking beers with our friends. Everyone here is hot. I can’t stop staring. So. Many. Speedos.
1:30 p.m. I see a flyer for an underwear party. I make it my goal to convince everyone to go.
11:45 p.m. We finish our drinks at the house and head to the party. I am mad I don’t have cuter underwear on ...
12:15 a.m. There are so many guys in their underwear and I am so drunk and horny. This is heaven.
2:15 a.m. We stumble upon a party in the dunes where a bunch of people have set up a generator to play music. There are lights and guys dancing everywhere. Guys in fairy costumes run around pouring shots in people’s mouths. I feel like I am at Burning Man.
4:45 a.m. Finally make it home and pass out.
DAY FIVE
9:30 a.m. Wake up hung-over, but happy. Get breakfast and head to the beach, where we spend most of the day rehashing the night before, laughing at how crazy life can be. For me, I lie on the beach feeling really happy to be in such a good place emotionally. My social life makes me really happy right now.

It's like reading a diary from the 70s. I'm 37 and pissed that growing up in the 80s and 90s instilled such doctrine that sex = incurable fatal disease. Even so, I'd rather read it or watch it than live sex parties.

This stuff has been going on all along, r2--even in the 80s and 90s.. I'm older than you, so was there--we had plenty of sex parties, back rooms, etc, the only difference being that safer sex was talked about a lot more, and practiced pretty uniformly, at least in every one of the places I was ever in (and I was in almost all of them). Nothing new here, really. Every couple of years someone comes out with something about how decadent their lives are. Big deal.

I've never been to Fire Island. Should I turn in my GayCard?

No, r5, you should consider yourself lucky.

Wouldn't running a generator be too loud to hear the music? Those things sound like jet engines.

It doesn't sound like he lives like this, it sounds like a weekend vacation where he had a good time. Yes, people still like to have fun.

The underwear party he's talking about isn't exactly filled with classic beauties. Look up Daniel Nardicio's underwear party Cherry Grove if you're interested.

When did the NYMag paywall become so oppressive? You can usually get past it by going into private mode though.
