Last week, the men of the U.S. Olympic gymnastics team shared a snap shot of some beach time in Rio, and in one instant, the entire internet became simultaneously parched.
In case you missed it, here it is:
Our eyes don’t know where to focus. There’s just too much sexiness in one frame.
But really.
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.
So to make things easier, here’s a closer look at this genetically gifted bunch:
See you this summer at the Games, boys!
Daniel Salmeron
They’re a gymnastics team. That’s a given…

Ever been with a gymnast? They almost don’t need you! God, I miss my twenties…

As a face guy, in the first group photo above, the guy with green hair and slightly Bobby Cannavale-ish features does it for me. Stunning, and the one where he’s smiling just seals it. The body’s just gravy at that point.

I grew up in the eighties & the 1984 Olympic gymnastics were a big part of my coming out (though I’m Canadian). I’ll be watching it this year for sure.
Stache
@Guy068: I would only miss my twenties if I could take back what I’ve learned. I was a fucked up hot mess that knew everything (I didn’t) back then. No way would i ever wish to go back to that.
Chris
@Glücklich: I am pretty sure that he’s Dannel Leyva, a holdover from the 2012 team who won a Bronze medal in the men’s all-around competition.
Captain Obvious
All these guys wearing next to nothing together and not one lady in sight. If only they weren’t so tiny. ;(
Glen Martin Fitch
You can respect a pack of abs, but it’s a belly one falls in love with.

@Chris:
Thanks for the info. Looked him up and mmmm….that *face*.
Raúl Hernández
The tattoos ruined it for me though
gaym50ish
@Guy068: I, too, was with a gymnast once — but it was a long time ago when I had the hard body myself. He was the perfect physical specimen, but unfortunately I was traveling and was not in my own town at the time, so it was only for one night.

Yuk, what a load of love me’s

Some nice young bodies… and some poor ink choices.
David Hinson
Hot hot hot!
Brandon Catapane

Mike Radics ð??ð???ð??
Will Glitzern
Tattoos…no thanks
Large Marge
Newsflash…. the tattoos aren’t for you, they are for the person who has them.
Even if you don’t like them, I doubt that’d be a dealbreaker for anyone.
Richard Holaday
Cept they’re all short ð???
Glücklich
@Large Marge:
THANK. YOU.
Some folks are unhappy unless they have something of no consequence to bitch bitch bitch about. Probably the same population loading their Grindr profiles with criteria as if they’re customizing features on a new car.
Large Marge
@Richard Holaday: gymnists benefit from being short, much like divers benefit from being skinny.
Joseph Ziegler
Tattoos are hot. Short guys are hot too
ric
I’m sorry but this group gymnasts does nothing for me.

John Orozco (photo 17, on the right), who was in the last Olympics; Donnell Whittenburg (1 (far right), 2 (center), 5, 7 (center), 18 (with selfie stick)), and Dannel Leyva, also in the last Olympics (2, and 16).
None of these 3 have visible tattoos, though tattoos are fine, and all 3 have a little hair on their chests.
They’re a cute team overall, too.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Paul Ruggerri: beyond hot!!!
nycbklyn
Hot guys tattoos short whatever they’re all so sweet looking too, only a bunch of bitter queens would look at a group of hot young smiling, healthy, fit, gymnasts then tear them apart.

@Captain Obvious: Yes but you must realize that guys that body type are usually compensated for their lack of height by a bonus down below!*
(*above quote is based on a very thorough long term in depth hands and mouth on study :p )
corey
So when’s my gang bang?
spanprof
OMG, they can do it standing on their heads!
Mack
(Sigh) To be young again…………..
Captain Obvious
@PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS: True, they’re almost always incredibly hot too. I just happen to be tall(something I wished for when I was short) and I don’t like being the big spoon so I get disappointed when a hot guy stands up barely reaching my nipples.
mz.sam
Oh yeah, they’re all hot and f***able. But they’re all SHORT…so what good is that??
baggins435
@Captain Obvious: Actually, if you Google it, male gymnasts aren’t THAT short on average. There are a few hobbits (Jonathan Horton), but most are average height with some around 6′.
