Back in the 70s and 80s when grooming your pubic hair was inconceivable, were you embarrassed by your bush? Maybe it was too big or two small. Not the right color? Were you pleased about what you received? Did you want to show it off? Maybe it wasn't a big deal.

Some guys with the biggest bushes liked to hang out in the high school locker room after showering when practice was over. I had the impression they wanted to out-bush the others. Some even blow-dried their pubes. Others who seemed just past puberty were quick to wrap their towels around themselves after showering when practice was over. in the college dorm and group showers, our bushes were varied and I took note. No one put great effort to hide what they had.

Looking back, what were you thinking about your own pubes?

Don't think "porn god" (promising or otherwise) is how Dirk Shafer saw his life rolling out.

Yes, he was very attractive, but as we all know the gay community is full of such guys. How seriously others take them however is another matter.

While there isn't anything inherently wrong with being a forty or fifty year old being a personal trainer for a living, am guessing DS perhaps saw his life unfolding otherwise.

Gorgeous/hot gay guys are not unlike attractive women; they can have a definite shelf life. There is always something younger, fluffier, (or in case of men, harder) coming up the ranks. When your life in whole or part is wrapped up in appearance, loss of youth and looks can be a jolt.

Christopher Atkins Playgirl layout is literally my favourite male nudes of all time..And I’ve been a huge connoisseur of much more explicit gay porn for decades.Doesn’t matter,I still jack off to his layout because:

-Some of the best ass shots in PG history(I love man ass) -I love blondes and blonde pubes.And blonde twunks.He embodies that for me. -Because of Blue Lagoon he was one celebrity that I’d actually heard of prior to his layout.I already had a big crush on him.And I found it a turn on that someone already famous would pose nude. -I love that he’s staring into the camera,looking at the viewer/voyeur in each shot.The look in his eyes seems to be saying:”I know you want me.I know you want to fuck me”.Huge turn on that! -I love that in the pool shot you can see the shadow of his dick.You could use your imagination. -I loved that a gay man took those photos-Greg Gorman.Much more homoerotic. -And lastly,mainly because looking at those photos brings me back to the summer of 1982, a great time in my life when I was 18 years old and had my whole life ahead of me.Ah nostalgia!

I also loved the John Matuszak layout.My 2nd favourite layout.Big meaty butt-yum!

Nude was fine for females doing porn or whatever aimed as straight males. Men who posed nude even as "artists models" were often viewed with suspicion.

As Playgirl's reputation grew into basically soft porn for gay men the stigma only increased; it wasn't until the thing achieved some sort of legitimacy (but not much) that things changed much.

Remember by the 1980's and 1990's you saw the rise of male models or actors being lusted after and promoted same as females had for generations.

As noted above Tracy James rode that wave far as it could go. Ditto for Antonio Sabato Jr. , Mark Wahlberg, Michael Bergin , Marcus Schenkenberg and scores of others. Television shows like Baywatch helped promote the whole "himbo" culture as well.

Truth to tell beefcake photos and films had been around since 1940's or so. Everyone knew (including the models) the main target audience (and it wasn't fitness buffs), for all those handsome, hot and muscular young men posing. Some tried to claim the moral high ground claiming they truly were straight and only did those pictures to promote culture of physical fitness or body building. Fine, whatever helps you get to sleep at night....

Playgirl like Cosmo and similar magazines began to slide once gay men had other outlets for porn in rise of internet era.

Guys who wouldn't (for their own various personal reasons) do Playgirl or whatever, did International Male or Undergear catalogs. Everyone with an ounce of brains knew who a good part of target market was; but since there wasn't full nudity a guy could have it on his C.V. without any negative associations.

[R134]Yes it was the late70’s/early 80’s when lusting openly after a man became more excepted.Even,kind of,for gay men.Playgirl deserves a lot of credit for that.Also that’s when Chippendales took off.Disco..Richard Gere and all those nude scenes.”Buns” calendars.Beefcake shows on TV like For Ladies Only and the Making of A Male Model.The Blue Lagoon.What was mostly underground before became mainstream almost overnight.It was a heady time for The Gays.Sexual liberation for all was in the air!Then AIDS put a serious damper on all of it of course.

I guess they don't look all scrubbed and shaved with short, tight little haircuts, every hair in place which is how you and the modern gays like you seem to like it. Cookie cutter gym bodies all looking exactly the same.

All this nonsense that gays like straight guys is total nonsense.

From above link:

"George Maharis (actor, July 1973 centerfold): [First editor-in-chief Marin Scott Milam] asked whether I'd do a centerfold. Nobody told me it was a nude centerfold! But I was game.We were doing the shooting and [the photographer kept saying], "Well, you can't show that." I said, "For Christ's sake, man, if it's gonna be a nude centerfold, that's what I was born with."Marin called and said, "The one that I chose shows a bit of… you." I don't know how many they printed, but they got a call for so many more that they turned everybody face-forward after that."

"Lorenzo Lamas (actor, July 1983, November 1993, and May 1996 covers): I was approached to do a centerfold for Playgirl when I was a trainer at Jack LaLanne Health Spa in 1976. My girlfriend at the time agreed to be in the pictorial. It was pretty no-holds-barred. The photographer was a client of mine. He said there was a chance to win $2,500. When I was 18, that was more money than I made in a year. We shot it. I told my dad, [MGM star] Fernando Lamas. He went through the roof and got a sharp attorney who went to Playgirl and said they could not release the photos. They said, "We have a contract," but the attorney said, "I don't care. It has the potential of ruining whatever clean-cut image he has as an actor." The lawyer got the negatives. I think she showed my dad the pictures and he burned them. My dad thought the magazine targeted gays. He thought that would be harmful to me. [Lamas's covers all followed his father's 1982 death.] "

For R136

"David Vance (photographer, 1974–88): It was fairly easy to get people to pose nude right off the street. I only remember one model who was reluctant to show his penis. The majority were people who didn't work out at all. They just were well proportioned. Now, every 12-year-old has abs. Also: "Gone are the days of stories on breast cancer and marital rape, and interviews with Maya Angelou. Today, Playgirl.com is largely targeted to gay readers."At the end of the day, we all know the end [of the print incarnation] is near," says Playgirl's current vice president of marketing, Daniel Nardicio. "It's the law of diminishing returns." Part of what hurt Playgirl was something the magazine itself had pioneered: the normalization of male nudity. Posing nude wouldn't necessarily hurt an actor's career anymore, says Nardicio. And they could also exploit their nudity in far more lucrative or attention-grabbing platforms."

by Anonymousreply 137June 21, 2020 2:08 AM

Playgirl published monthly from 1973 to 2009, then quarterly from 2010 until folding in 2016.

Do the sums; 36 years x 12 issues per comes out to round 432 issues in total. That is a whole lot of centerfolds and other nude male pictorials. Yet even an exhaustive "WHET" search turns up relatively few Playgirl models. Ones you do find are those who were actors or otherwise famous then or became so afterwards. The rest seem to have largely faded back into obscurity.

"Suddenly, Dad appears right behind me. I turn and look. He is standing there naked with a huge erection. Never in my life have I seen anything like it. I am this seven-year-old kid, a guest in my father’s home. Still learning the ways of the world. Still trying to figure things out. And now my father is standing there as if nothing is wrong, his corn dog sticking in my face as I try not to stare. “Hey, amigo,” he says, “you must be getting hungry.” I avert my eyes away from Dad’s big salami. “Yeah, a little,” I mumble. I’ve watched National Geographic specials and stared at enough pictures in magazines to know what penises look like. Dad’s, however, is beyond my comprehension. I add, “I was wondering when you guys were going to come out.” Dad carries on like we are having a normal conversation, as if nothing is out of the ordinary as his flagpole still stands at attention. “We took a swim, amigo,” he says matter-of-factly. “Esther is taking a shower and then she is going to start dinner.” I can only think of one thing: “Wow, is that the way I am going to be? I hope so!” The fact Dad is so well endowed makes me realize later why women loved him and put up with his shenanigans. As the years went on, I never mentioned the incident of the erection or its effect on me."

I knew a 70-year-old man about twenty years ago who had the entire Playgirl collection. He bought it at an auction. He told me Lorenzo Lamas did appear in one of those "Men of select a city" layouts. He wasn't identified, but he was full-frontal. Same thing with Richard Gere. He was in one of the "Men of this theme" layouts, again not identified, and full-frontal.

They used to publish a "Men of "this college league" layout every year. One of those men is/was a well-recognized company executive now, according to him.

He was an expert on Playgirl magazine. I wanted to ask him if we could pull out some of those magazines when I visited him. I've had my share of horned-up "friends" who wanted to serve me dinner back then; I was afraid this guy might be one of them if he got too aroused by the magazines. He died five years ago. His family swooped in after he was dead and pillaged his home. I wouldn't doubt the magazines ended up in a recycled bin or burned in a fire.

So, if any of you have a collection, look through it. You might be surprised at who will see.

Lorenzo Lamas did Playgirl covers in:

May 1996, (Hollywood's Randy Renegade, Only On Woman Can Come Between Him and His Harley)

November 1993, (Renegade Lover Repents)

Renegade was a television show that ran from 1992-1997 starring Lorenzo Lamas

July 1983 (with Heather Locklear in "Very Bare Swimwear")

None of these layouts IIRC contained any frontal nudity. Swimwear and the obligatory shirt off or unbuttoned yes, but not the full Monty.

Just to round this out...

Richard Gere - cover June 1985 (Life As The Most Desired Man Alive)

Richard Gere - cover May 1983 "An X-Clusive Exclusive Special - With Photos That Will Leave You "Breathless"

Breathless was the 1983 film release staring Richard Gere. Again no tackle out.

Another vote or Brian Buzzini. Even though looking at his pictorial now after not having seen it for so many years, he is good looking, yes, but not overwhelmingly so like he was in 1987.

AKA Julian Andretti, Julian Ruiz, Jordan Rivers....

Playgirl just kept digging themselves deeper into a hole featuring all those gay or straight porn models, especially when they began showing full erections. It just cemented their reputation in many minds PG was targeted largely to gays, which in turn began to hurt sales to women who were supposed to be their main target audience.

Remember the scandal around Julian Fantechi when his PG spread appeared. IIRC he was teaching at some NYC (public?) school and of course many parents (especially fraus) were upset and wondered if Mr. Fantechi's modeling work set the proper example for impressionable young minds.

FB doesn't allow hotlinking, but you can easily find JF's Facebook page by doing a search. Last updated 3 May 2020, and he still looks pretty good.

The Rogers have some physical differences, particularly beneath their swimming suits. They’re there for all to see. Being together naked on a beach or in a locker room, is it awkward?

by Anonymousreply 298June 24, 2020 3:19 PM

R296, Lou is alive and presumably well at age 79.

Here's an update on his pictorial repercussions . . .

In his photospread, (taken during an expense paid trip to Hawaii), the muscular and hirsute Zivkovich displayed his 6'4" 216 lb. physique—46" chest and 35" waist—in a series of shots which consistently featured full-frontal nudity. There were no erections and no rear-view shots.

Copies of the magazine quickly became something of a collector's item and even sparked brief talk of an acting career for Zivkovich. (He played a supporting role in a McMillan and Wife episode which aired on October 26, 1975.)

However, there were unfortunate ramifications. The high school in Apple Valley, California, where Zivkovich worked as a phys-ed teacher fired him, charging that his appearance in a nude centerfold showed he was not a proper role model for students. Many of these students as well as fellow teachers then came to the defense of Zivkovich who stated: "I don't see anything wrong with a nude body that is a work of art." The case went to a state appeals panel which admonished Zivkovich for a "mistake in judgment" but ruled in March 1975 that he could not be fired.

One year later, in March 1976, Zivkovich—along with a bevy of musclemen—appeared with Mae West in a CBS TV special titled "Dick Cavett's Backlot USA." Mae West's biographer, Simon Louvish, describes Zivkovich at this point as being Mae West's "frequent escort."

When I was in 5th grade, it was discovered that our art teacher had posed for Playboy a few years earlier under a different name. Apparently, a parent had found her nude spread and contacted the school principal. She was fired and the school district sent a letter to all the parents informing them that they had taken care of the issue.

Even as a 10-year old, that really pissed me off. Number one, because I really liked that art teacher, and number two, because a parent was reading Playboy and had probably jacked off to her pictorial before wiping the cum off his stomach and contacting the school to express his disgust over her displaying her tits.

This was way back in 1972. Today, she could've sued the school district and probably gotten a big fat settlement which would have allowed her to buy her own art studio.

I found this issue when I saw it in the open trash bag in a housekeeper's cart at a hotel. I probably shouldn't have put my hand in a grocery bag, but I was young and stupid, and a horny teenager. I managed to hide it in my coat until we returned to our room, then I placed it under the bed. Overnight, I took it to the bathroom. I hoped the cover model was naked, and it looked like he was hairy.

When I opened the pages, I think I got lightheaded. He was better than I imagined. I cam on the bathroom floor, unaided, when I opened the four-panel centerfold. I sneaked it into my suitcase and successfully hid it for the rest of the vacation. Of course I looked at it more that week. Often. I didn't think I could make myself cum so much in a week. I threw it away, with a bunch of other stuff, when I left home for college a couple of years later. I didn't want to leave any evidence I was gay if my parents ever cleaned out my room.
