Jaffy … maybe you missed it, but it seems like there’s growing consensus that thumbnails would be a better format for image galleries. it’s a seemingly trivial element, but it’s a real pain to click through every photo. if the pro-thumbnailers are in the minority, so be it – but i’d suggest maybe a poll of your readers to get a better sense of what everyone wants. just a thought.
There is absolutely nothing attractive about this “man.” I can only think you posted this to get a reaction out of people, which points up how silly and tacky this site can be at its worst. Provocative for the sake of provoking. You’re only driving viewers away by these tactics.
THUMBNAILS PLEASE! and how about some men with some hair on their body and/or face now and then? however, i probably wont look at many pics because having to click through each pic is a total pain!

I agree about bringing back thumbnails. With thumbnails, I can see if I want to look at the other pictures; with these numbers, I have no idea unless I click, and then get frustrated when I’ve wasted my time on a model I have no interest in.
I’m officially signing the Bring Thumbnails Back petition. :-)

It creeps me to know that I know a place that would please NAMBLA members about two days out of every five. Really, when they look this I’m afraid to click through the pages without fearing a Gestapo knock on the door. No thanks.

@dvlaries: I’m pretty sure he’s of age, but it is more than a little uncomfortable. Like pederasty chic or something. Like that creepy Fiona Apple video.

Why do so many readers bitch whenever a pictorial of someone who doesn’t inject steroids is posted? Some of us like to see people our age (18+) without the insane muscles. This guy is sexy, realistic and healthy looking. I say bring on more like him!
I suppose the hate on young twinkish guys is age relative. This guy is 8 years my younger (I’m 28) and my bf is 7 years my younger (he’s 21). If I were 30-40 it might be a little weird for me.
@Mark: I don’t think it is the fact that he’s twinkish. He’s very boyish looking; literally looks like he just stepped out of a boys locker room in high school. I’m younger than you (26) and there’s something about him that is younger looking than usual. That, coupled with the briefs and the basketball, make him seem, well, straight out of high school.
Of course, I also ha three years of m life stolen by law school and my perspective is all skewed; when I visited y old college town last November I felt ancient. Still, seems young looking.
@Alec: I’m 22, and even I must concur! I may have to ask this guy if I can see his school ID or driver’s license before I buy him a drink and flirt with him.
@Sam: I think we all agree now. Bring back the thumbnails, Japhy!
@hardmannyc: As I’ve said before, I don’t want to personally denigrate any of these models. Lordy knows I most likely won’t be able to stroll a runway or do a photo shoot any time soon! Still, I must also reiterate that I do appreciate some nicely muscled meat on my MGs’ bones. And today, I’m not feeling the lust.
I guess I can join the oh so slowly growing minority of people who will say that it’s nice to occasionally see pictures of some one other the the typical gym bunnies.
We should have the right to ” FLAG ” Morning Goods like we do on Craigs list. And; for gods sake go back to thumb-nails so we can pick the photos we wan to view without going thru them all (think of as going green by saving energy on unwanted clicks)
By the way global warming by man is a crock so many can make money out of nothing. Last ice age came and went without mankind even being here + who know how many hot/cold ages before.
I open these posts in my RSS feed now solely to read the blustering comments. I suspect a little mischievousness on the part of Queerty staff at times although it’s a bit too easy, like waving a burning flag in the face of a Republican. Has queer America always been this moralising or is it a result of decades of religious browbeating? (Having read William Burroughs and Edmund White, I suspect the latter.) It’s a testament to the power of the dominant culture how many gay Americans have absorbed their nation’s inherent Puritanism.
The assumtion is made that “models” are of legal age if, the picture displays nudity. It is not illegal to display non-nude pictures of anyone of any age. Puting down models for not being muscular enough, or being too young is simple an expression on ones own tastes. Your tastes are only that – yours. There are plenty of other tastes in this world, all just as valid as any other. Quit being so self-centered and judgmental.
And hardmannyc is unreasonably hard on the boy. He’s a little scrawny for my tastes, on that line between twink and malnourished, but he’s got an incredibly handsome face. And who couldn’t love that mouth?
@John C: It took 27 (!) posts for someone to call these crazed moralizers on their disgusting and perverted view of beauty and sexuality. Thanks!
You people have got to be kidding! I cannot imagine that your keyboards function for all the jizz, since clearly you are incapable of viewing a picture of anyone without the pounding of putz being the focal point. This boy is exquisite, it matters not a twit how old he is. As is Ian McKellen, Sean Connery and Tom Selleck. You were all young, you will all (please) be old. And you were, are and will be beautiful. Could we please try to make being gay about loving the male people? And not about your (or the Pope’s, or whoever’s) guilt?
He was 17 when that web page went up, whenever that was. I also googled him and there are pictures of him all over the web as he is a professional model and gets plenty of work all over the world. Many of his pictures have his shirt off and there is at least one other in his underwear. No nude photos that I have found. So relax guys, he is legal in this photo and I’m betting he is now at least 18 and so would be legal in any pictures (nude or sexual), depending on what country you are in. He would be legal in his own country if he is indeed at least 18.
Not impressed
He looks like he’s about 16. Do you guys have your papers in order?

still love you though – and morning goods. xoxo
What a twink! They all have pimples!

He’s cute. I like him.
Please, please, please bring back the Thumbnails… Thank you!
He does have a clean cute boyish charm to himself, do-able….a little to young….but as they say…young dumb and full of cum

I think he’s cute, I like curly hair; & technically a good body. But yes, he looks way too young, give him a few years.
He needs to hit the gym HARD.
Otherwise….zzzzzzz
I guess you had a craving for a twinkie.
I guess I can join the oh so slowly growing minority of people who will say that it’s nice to occasionally see pictures of some one other the the typical gym bunnies.
I didn’t like the thumbnail, and prefer the new way. So there.
Very Cute! Would like to see more picts of him in those tightie whites or on the dirt bike!
does nothing for me. That’s all I’m gonna say.

^^^ What’s “puritan” about not finding attractive nonsexual photos of a bland, thin, nondescript boy-man?
@hardmannyc: I must mostly concur. I don’t think it’s overly “Puritan” for us to make sure these guys are of legal age of consent.

thumbnails will never come back. It’s all about the benjamins.
just like the old look will never be back.
the guy is hot. If he looks young it’s not his fault.
Don’t crap yourselves guys, but I googled him & he’s 17. And probably often confused as a Jonas Brother.
He’s not 17. He was born in 1990.
