The University of Warwick Boat Club, whose members memorably posed nude for one of our favorite naked sportsman calendars, have done another service for the gays in opening the UK’s first LGBT training center.
PinkNews reports:
The LGBT Health and Wellbeing Centre in Birmingham will address the problems of health inequalities that LGBT people face in Birmingham, the second largest city in the UK. The centre is part funded by the National Lottery.
“We are thrilled to be launching the UKs first dedicated fitness space with the Warwick Rowers,” said Centre manager Dave Viney. “It’s great to see homophobia in sport and homophobic bullying creatively challenged by a predominantly heterosexual sports team.”
Yes, we’re all thrilled. Any chance this is a promotional video?:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

Creatively challenged by a predominantly heterosexual sports team? Not that I have a chance in hell but I’d kind of like to know which of the cute guys like guys.

Holy Moley! I feel like I got spun through a time warp and into paradise. Can this be happening?

I’ve heard rumors about rampant buggery among sailors in the glory days of the British Royal Navy. If the sailors looked like these boys I don’t doubt it.

As a competitive gay rower I would like to broadcast how wonderful this sport it. You work in an equal team with no true star player (the front-most seat often has the most prestige but it’s marginal). It is a wonderful workout for building lean, defined muscle (pic above). Anyone regardless of size, or age can do it. You get to go out on the water. Finally, the rowers all have to wear skin-tight, spandex unitards that leave little to the imagination (and they are super cute).

Well done guys! Good cause and fun all round!
