Sporno: Turkish Oil Wrestling

A Turkish man has that real X-Factor. Maybe it’s because the Mediterranean half of him is happy to lounge around by the beach nude, kissing you a bit and hoping on a blowjob, while his Middle Eastern half will waste no time slam fucking your ass right into the next continent. Remember the time Jesus and Jacko showed us how Turkish men fuck each other? Relive the moment.

This week’s Sporno takes us right to the heart of sexy Turkish masculinity. Turkish oil wrestling involves Turkish men of all ages and all builds – from twentysomething triathlete types to hulking, hairy daddies that make Bo Dixon look like Johnny Rapid — wearing skin tight leather knickerbockers, and absolutely nothing else, then pouring oil all over their bodies.

Hand to hand combat ensues; there can only be one winner, like a Gladiator match. The sport is wildly popular in Turkey and something of a national institution. It has rapidly won an international gay following too, for obvious reasons, so much so that event organisers had to intervene when bus loads of gay package tourists started arriving en masse at tournaments to take photos and wolf whistle. True story.
