I’m a big guy, gained a lot of weight, but I’m still good looking. The way media puts a spotlight on guys with great abs, great cocks, thight bodies, and chiseled jaws really makes me insecure about myself.
I dated a few guys before and they liked me. I have the personality and they are okay with my body. They loved me. But I turned them down because I just feel insecure about my body and think it’s better for them to find a hotter guy.
Is it just me or what? Should I just stay the way I am?
As a gay porn blog we’re partially responsible for perpetuating the image of “the perfect guy.” But while killer looks and porn star sex totally rock, it’s important to remember that these men are sexual fantasies and that chiseled abs and a nine inch cock are no substitute for the sexiness of a smart, fun-loving guy with a great personality and caring heart. Sounds like our advice seeker could use some advice on how to raise his confidence without letting all the models on TV, the web, and magazines wreck his self-esteem. We’re sure he’s not the only one who has ever felt this way, so how can he help himself feel more secure when approached by hot guys instead of giving up before it begins?

I am pretty sure I have hemorrhoids, but am terrified of going into the doctor to get it looked at because I have never had sex and am worried the tube he will have to insert into my anus will actually turn me on and I might get a boner. Has anyone else gotten an anoscope procedure done and how did it feel?
We’ve been to the proctologist more than twice and let us tell you, when you’re in that skimpy gown in a cold examination room with an old dude and his female nurse looking deep into your cho-cho, it sure ain’t sexy. But for fans of anal, we could see how unexpected boners could prove embarrassing. Has anyone had this problem? If so, how did the doc respond to your cock? Or did you have a secret trick for keeping your tiger tamed? Please share your comments, experience, and advice in the comments section. Have a question for QC?

I have been dating the most wonderful man for the past 6 months. He’s kind, attentive, ambitious, thoughtful, attractive (to me) and most of all we share the same values, particularly in the monogamy department.
We took our relationship very slowly in the beginning and were very respectful of each others boundaries. We weren’t intimate for the first 2 months as we were getting to know each other and I also told him that I was celibate until I was in a real relationship. He obliged and that’s what got me. My past boyfriends weren’t so receptive to the idea so we either went our separate ways or I broke my own boundary and had sex with them to appease them, which would later make me feel like shit.
Fast forward into our relationship, I find myself having the greatest sex of my life. We’re both in our early 30’s and we just want to do it all the time. It’s a wonderful feeling.
A few weeks ago, my boyfriend and I were in the mood again and just as we were getting into a bit of action, he whispered in my ear that he’d love it if we could go bareback (if I was ready). I told him, not yet.
Here’s the thing, I’ve never had bareback sex. I guess it’s always been drilled in my head that if you’re going to have sex, protect yourself. My past boyfriends never had a problem with it and it’s not that I’m afraid that my boyfriend will reject me if I do insist on a condom.
Is barebacking “normal” in a gay relationship? Do I take the next step and have unprotected sex with the man I love or do we continue using condoms because of my hang up? I trust him and we’ve both discussed that an open relationship isn’t in the cards, but I’d like to know what others think before I make any kind of decision.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Mike
One QC editor dated his boyfriend exclusively for a year and a half before they both went in to get tested so they could start barebacking. When he told the HIV clinician that he and his boyfriend were monogamous, the clinician rolled his eyes and said, “I’ve heard that one before.” What a dick! But maybe he had a point. Is it better to always wrap up your sausage or is it ever OK to serve it up raw (especially when the table only seats two)? Please share your comments, experience, and advice in the comments section.
I’m18 and recently came out, but my problem is that it seems I can never get any guys! I’m attractive, funny, smart. I just don’t seem to have that guy magnet attribute. Any tips on how to get guys without looking desperate? I need help.
Thanks, Bummed in FL
Looking at a porn site you might think a guy can just walk up to any other guy and start sucking him off. That works for some people—they’re called “freaks”. But Bummed knows that life isn’t a porn video and that meeting men can be much more daunting than what you see on Extra Big Dicks. So experienced men, sound off. How can Bummed attract men without coming off as a spineless need sponge? Please share your comments, experience, and advice in the comments section.
For the last 6 months, I have been living with my partner. We are both 30. Recently, I discovered that he has a blog that he has been secretly keeping ever since we started living together. In it, he writes about the highlights of his life, including all the not-so-nice bits that include me. Our occasional quarrels and disagreements are often blogged about in detail with the natural biases that one tends to have. In addition to this one-sided account of events, other sensitive details of my life are exposed, such as references to my health problems, my social life and other shortcomings that I may possess. He also includes (unflattering) photos of me. Last, but not least, he actually uses my name in the blog!!!
I am shocked at what he has done. I feel extremely violated. I almost feel as if this is far worse than if I caught him cheating on me. As this blog is read by his friends (and god knows who else on the net), I must appear like public enemy number one. Is he out to make me look bad or does he simply have no regard for my privacy? I have not confronted him and I am not sure what to do. Some part of me feels like I should not be with a person who claims to love me, but does not respect me. How will I ever trust him again?
Public Enemy Number One
We’re all for sharing, but there’s such a thing as too much! The writer doesn’t mention if he loves this guy or what all is at stake, but what do you think? Should PENO take his boyfriend’s blogging in stride, simply talk to him about it and ask him to be more discreet, or should he DESTROY HIM, break up, and threaten to sue? So many options… oh, it’s love American style! What would you do? Please share your comments, experience, and advice in the comments section.
I have met this wonderful guy and we’ve been going out for more than two months now. We are really in love with each other and happy together, but when we met he told me that he was versatile and I told him that am active (a top). After two weeks he told me that he is active as well. As we were really in love we decided to continue seeing each other.
The first times we had sex, we did mostly oral stuff and masturbating. He did try to take my dick with lots of lube but he couldn’t. I tried taking his dick and almost succeeded. We’ve tried two more times but every time my dick goes in a little he tells me to stop. Now I am very gentle, patient and attentive and I know am not forcing him. The third time, I succeeded in taking his dick and we did it, Twice!!!
Now I must confess that I did not get any pleasure out of it. It was strange because I never did this before and at times (rarely I felt some pain) but I did it because I LOVE HIM. I am not saying it was an unpleasant experience for me, I like it in many ways—making love to the guy I’ve given my heart to. What I am asking is how to deal with things if my boy can’t take my dick?
I know it will be quite frustrating for me, because I want to make love to him. He told me he’ll try again and again, but please help me. What can I do so that he feels less pain? We use lots of lube and we do the foreplay; I finger him etc. But what can I do if he still can’t?
Thanks for your help guys.
One of our editors recently mastered bottoming and all it took was a little anal douching, a patient top, a hell of a lot of lube, and some other “tricks” of the trade. Bottoming can be difficult especially for the inexperienced, but we’re sure there are enough seasoned pros here who can help with a tip or two. So how about it boys?

My military buddy who serves in the same unit as me is getting married. He asked me to be his best man and without thinking about it, I said yes! I then looked up the responsibilities of the best man. Great, now I, as a gay man, have to plan a straight man’s bachelor party!?! Now what do I do? Suggestions? Anyone else ever been in this situation?
This gentleman can’t be the first gay guy ever to plan a straight bachelor party, right? We’re thinking that before our advice seeker plans a thing, he should think about what his friend likes to do (maybe even ask him) and also ask the groom’s other pals if they have any ideas. It has been our experience that other guys love help planning bachelor party debaucher, but how should this man proceed? Are there any websites or additional ideas he might want to consider before his buddy’s last night of freedom? Please share your advice and experiences in the QComments section.
I’ll admit it, I want a guy to pee on me. A lot of my friends think it’s weird, but I really wanna try. It sounds so hot having a guy who’s turned on pee on me. I wanna be a piss slut, maybe take some in my mouth and kiss him, let it run down my chest as his hung flaccid washes me in piss—I’m getting hard just writing about it.
I really wanna try out this fantasy and have found a guy willing to do it, but what are the rules? I mean is it OK to drink it? Will I get STDs from piss (I hear pee is sterile)? Is it OK to let him pee in my eyes or on my ass? Is there anything else I should know? I really want to live out this fantasy, but I also want to make sure I am safe.
Human urinal coming through! Piss play can be hot (or warm depending), but our first timer has lots of questions. We’d say that maybe he should check out Boys-Pissing for some pissing points, but porn isn’t always the best place to pick up safe sex advice. So what should our new weatherman keep in mind so he can enjoy the golden showers without getting hosed? Please share your advice and experiences in the QComments section.
I have a unique problem. My dad came out pretty late in life (around age 55). He’s almost 70 now and though he’s hired a few hookers in the past and has flirted with men, he’s single and getting pretty lonely from the looks of it. He cried once while telling me about being ignored at a bath house. It’s kinda weird talking about gay dating with your dad and I’m not entirely sure what to tell him.
He’s a good looking fella, even at his age, but he doesn’t want to join some gay seniors group. He’d rather meet a middle-aged gay guy another way, but I have no idea what to tell him. Where should a 70-year-old gay man go to meet a potential partner? I don’t want to send him to any old dating website because it’s my experience that most of the men on there are younger and the older guys have daddy complexes or fetishes.
I’d appreciate any advice. Thanks!
We’ve got a sexy senior on our hands! It’s definitely difficult getting older whether you’re gay or not. So how can we help this older gentleman find a mate without having to cruise bathhouses or manslut.com? Do we have any older guys out there who can suggest good meeting places for mature men? Please share your advice and experiences in the QComments section.
I’m a single professional guy who just got a decent IRS return and I wanna stock up my pleasure chest for when I play alone or with someone else. A “pleasure chest” is what I call my collection of sex toys. Right now my collection is pretty tame—I just have some lube, a Fleshjack and a blue nine-inch jelly blue vibrator that’s shaped like a thick cock (it’s pretty good). Those are a good start, but can you advise me on other toys I should buy?
Toys tend to be expensive, so I wanna buy stuff that’s good quality and that I’ll actually use. I’m kinda curious about buying an Aneros, a Rude Boy prostate stimulator or a double-sided dildo. I’d also like to buy some BDSM gear, but am unsure where to start. I guess I have a few questions. First, should I buy the ones I’ve mentioned? Has anyone else tried them? Are they any good? Also what else should I buy? I’m especially unsure about the BDSM gear since I am a beginner and inexperienced. Which items would be the best way to start exploring that (from the side of the dominator and the submissive guy)? I really want to get my money’s worth and would prefer hearing from guys who have experienced these toys firsthand.
Thanks
Christmas came early this year and now Santa wants to stuff his stocking with some very naughty boy-toys. So what toys should this hot guy get? Toys are not only a great way to make good sex with someone even spicier, they’re also great ways to learn more about your body and what turns you on when you’re alone. We have our favorites, but what are yours? Help this fella spend wisely by sharing your experiences and advice in the QComments section!
I’m 18, and I’m a virgin… but that’s soon to change. I have a man who really likes me and wants me to fuck him. Only problem is that I’m terrified. I don’t know the first thing about what to do. How do I fuck??? How do I have sex? I know it might sound crazy but I’m lost. please, anyone… Help!!!
Thanks
We’ve all gone through a first time. Usually it’s sweet, well-intentioned, awkward, though incredibly hot. So now we’ve got a young green gentleman looking to fuck but he’s noticeably nervous, so what’s a timid top to do? How might he relax, prepare himself and his partner, and do the deed so that he and his lover can have a sexcellent time. He needs a recipe for a successful night—do you have the ingredients? Please share your experiences and advice in the QComments section!
I have a horror story that’s kinda funny. My brother has this friend who woke up one Thanksgiving morning feeling very ill. His balls and stomach hurt and even though he didn’t feel like eating, he joined his family at the dining room table. He felt hot and woozy and no sooner had he prepared his plate did he pass out face down into the mashed potatoes.
It turns out that one of his testicles had slowly wound its way around the other one and cut off circulation causing an extreme amount of pain. And while they rushed him to the emergency room to remove one of his balls, thieves broke into his family’s home and stole all of their Christmas presents—so his testicles ruined two family holidays!
I used to giggle about this story until I realized the same thing could happen to me. Lately my balls have been very sensitive and I sometimes worry that the same thing is happening to me. Is it? Are there any other reasons my balls should hurt so much? It’s not a case of blue balls nor have I been hit in the nuts anytime recently. I’ve read that it could be something called spermatorrhea, but I’m not sure.
Has anyone had a problem with achey balls? Is there any chance that one of my balls could be twisting around the other and I just don’t know it? How common is that anyway? I have real low hangers and wonder if one could easy wind around the other like a tetherball winding itself around a pole. Can that happen any old time?
Whoa, what a story! We feel bad for your brother’s friend and can understand why you would be worried about the same thing happening to you, especially if you’ve been laughing at that poor guy all these years—karma’s a bitch. But achey balls (whether blue balls or not) are no fun. So how about it, readers? Do you know why our advice-seeker might be experiencing pain? Have any of you gone through the same thing? And how likely is it that he might end up like his brother’s pal? We’ve never heard of anyone going through that, but maybe it’s more common than we think.

I’m a big fan of Logan McCree and I’m wondering if anyone knows how you tattoo something like a cock? I’m curious because it changes sizes often. Do you have to stay hard the entire time the tattoo needle’s going or do you get it when flaccid? Do any of you guys know how this is done?
He’s not exactly asking for advice but maybe one of our tattoo-artist or science-buff QClickers can better explain the process of dick-tattooing. It’s our understanding that a dick does not have to stay hard, but we’re unsure about the exact method, intensity of pain (especially on the glans) or the healing process. So any artistic and inked types, please share your experiences and advice in the QComments section!
We get questions like this every now and then, but this one comes from a younger member of our QCommunity, Fuzzy at QueerClique:
Right so… My name is Jake. I’m 19 and I live in Ireland. I have a little problem and would like some advice!
I have known that I am gay since I was 13 but I have acted straight since then. I have never had a girlfriend. One of the guys in my class (who we all knew was gay from the first day that we met) has come out to us. He is one of my good friends and I think he knows that I am gay. But most of the time I cant stand to be around him because he annoys the hell out of me! I also think other people are starting to suspect me. Nothing has happened between us…yet!
Last November we were at one of my friend’s birthdays and I was driving us home. About 5 minuets from his house, he starts asking me if I like this girl. Then out of the blue he asks me if I would ever have sex with a guy! My reply was “It depends.”
A few months later in January, it was his birthday. A group of us went bowling and back to his house afterwards. As a group we watched DVDs and danced to music. It turned out that I was the only one spending the night at his house. After everyone had left it was just the 2 of us. You could nearly cut the sexual tension with a knife. After about 2 hours of playing on the Wii we decided to go to bed. I was so close to walking into his bedroom while he was getting changed but I didn’t.
Just as I got into bed he walked into my room and said “Can I ask you something?” I said sure. Then he said “Nevermind, it’s embarrassing,” and got up and walked out. Since then I have often visualized us doing various things to each other and wondered what would have happened if I had asked him “What’s embarrassing?”
So my question to you all is what do I do now? Any advice will be considered. I am confused and I need help!
Thanks for reading.
Young attraction and crushes can be awkward, especially when you find yourself paired up with an unlikely lover. What should our Irish friend do? Should he hit on his openly gay (but annoying) pal or should he set his sites elsewhere? If he decides to make a move, what’s the best way to begin? And if he doesn’t, what should he do next? Please share your experiences and advice in the QComments section or on Fuzzy’s blog.
I’m 40 and have been dating a 35-year-old for almost a year. We’re exclusive and although we don’t live together things have been going very well generally and I wouldn’t be against us turning into Ozzie and Harriet at some point. But a recent development has caught me by surprise.
One night while staying over at my place, I caught him masturbating to a lesbian wrestling site. It’s a small place and I wasn’t spying; I just looked into the study on my way to the kitchen and he had his back to me while scrolling through some pages of naked women fighting. He was totally jerking-off. Not a biggie—that’s what the computer’s there for. I didn’t interrupt because I didn’t want to embarrass him, but I did ask him about it at breakfast the next morning.
“What was that about?” I asked. “Are you bisexual?” “I dunno,” he said. He used to date women back when he was closeted (that’s how he always puts it: his “heterosexual phase.” “I was a young economics major and didn’t know any better, ha ha”). I shrugged it off and asked for the jam when he asked, “What if I were bisexual?” “I’m all the woman you need,” I said. “What if I said I wanted to have sex with a woman?” he asked. “I’d probably call an exorcist,” I said. But he wasn’t joking…
“Are you serious?” I asked. Then he started talking about how he’s been jerking off thinking about women more often these days, how there’s a few at his gym that he finds attractive, and how he’s wondering if he should explore it. Well, I got positively side-swiped. Here’s the deal: I know that sexuality’s a fluid thing (the Kinsey scale and all that), but he’s never even mentioned in the slightest that he’s anything other than gay; at least since I met him.
“How important is to you?” I asked him, and he said he didn’t know, but that he was curious. I told him I’d get back to him and so here I am. We’re not in an open relationship so I’m not really keen on letting him go out and fool around with some random woman. He asked me how I’d feel about a woman in our bed as part of a threesome and I said, “I’d feel sorry for that woman—it’d be the gayest sex she’s ever had.”
I was kidding of course. I’m about as interested in fooling around with a woman as I am in drawing unicorns on my kneecaps (which is to say, not at all). I’m not one of those “women are icky” gays, I’m just a three-dollar bill. But what should I do about my burgeoning bisexual beau? I really don’t want to let some skank have my guy, but I don’t want to lose him either and I think he’s gotta scratch that itch.
Sex between us has been pretty good—at least two or three times a week with lots of physical affection and cuddling, so I don’t think it’s that. But I’m very possessive and it would really break my heart if he slept with someone else—I can’t help it… I’m an old-fashioned romantic. I’ve already told him all this of course, but how to proceed? Should I be worried?
Please help me, QC darlings. Like Obi Wan Kenobi, you are my only hope. All my brunch buddies told me to get a cat, take a quaalude, and call it a day—what bitches!
Welly, well… what a conundrum! On the one hand, it’s great that these guys are so open with each other that they can discuss their feelings honestly, but it seems like their openness has a limit. Should our advice seeker let his boyfriend explore his bisexuality even though it will break his heart? Can he say no without making his boyfriend unhappy? Is this the beginning of the end or the start of something weird and wonderful? Please share your experiences and advice in the QComments section. Have a question for QC?

I’m a 25-year-old guy who works at an industrial print shop in Wyoming. I’ve been working in print for 4 years and for the whole part I’m good at it, I enjoy what I do, and I like my place of work. It’s just that lately I’ve been hearing a lot from opinionated co-workers who don’t like gays very much. They say things like “it’s unnatural,” “that’s so gay,” and “I think we should just put ’em on one big island.” I know not all of them feel like that, but it just seems like the ones who do are more vocal. And the ones who don’t would rather keep quiet than cause waves. Sadly, I’m one of those quiet people.
I’ve never made an issue of my sexuality at work (I prefer to keep my work life and personal life separate) so I definitely don’t want to start now. I’d hate for me to come out to these guys just to shut them up, but I’m getting tired of hearing them speak without saying anything. How can I speak up without outing myself? Should I be afraid of retaliation or name-calling if I do stand up to them? Should I tell my boss? Please help.
Some of his co-workers sound like real boneheads. We understand work can be a touchy place for sexual issues, but he shouldn’t have to listen to such degrading talk. After all, others might not tolerate it if they were talking that way about blacks, Jews, or women. So what do you think, QC readers? How can our young worker make his co-workers more aware of their ignorance without making himself a target? Is there a way he can get his say while covering his ass if they decide to give him trouble? Please share your experiences and advice in the QComments section. Have a question for QC?
