Michael Ian Black is notoriously self-effacing, but we donât ever know that heâs pushed a gay joke about himself this far.
In an interview with Esquire magazine about his new book, Youâre Not Doing It Right, the comic jokes, âI am so comfortable in my sexual skin right now that if somebody wants to stick something up my ass, thatâs fine.â
He qualifies, though, that heâd like a whiff of Poppers first.
âJust give me the drugs,â he says. âIâll be fine. I guess what Iâm saying is, I will willingly trade drugs for gay sex.â
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.
MIB also displays a canonical knowledge of gay slang, and he thinks that gay men donât lust for him anymore (totally false!). Hereâs a snippet from the interview:
Esquire: You describe yourself in your book with the gay slang âchicken.â I had no idea what that was, so I Googled it.
Whatâd you find?
You sent me down a very dangerous path, sir.
Let me guess. Chicken led you to chicken hawk. And then where did you go? Did you get to butt plugs?
Did you get to trunk butt?
Trunk butt? Dear God, no, I didnât get to trunk butt.
Thatâs whenâŠ
Please stop. Please, just no.
Am I sharing something thatâs disturbing you?
Hereâs a sentence from your book: âWomen donât seem to find me nearly as adorable as do fifty-year-old men in leather pants.â Why this specific age demographic?
I probably could have gotten thirty-year-old men in leather pants, too. There was a moment in my life when I was very attractive to gay men. But that moment has since passed. I donât get the whistles anymore. I donât know who wants to have sex with me these days.
We love a man who emasculates himself, Michael. Weâd still do you!

I still think he’s cute…. and if he’s serious about the sex for drugs thing, let me see what I can score! LOL

I had to look it up. I’d always just known it as a prolapse, blossom, or rosebud that one gets apparently from a lot of bareback anal sex and fisting.

Please, this guy doesn’t even know what “chicken” means. At 41 he’s NOT chicken and hasn’t been for decades. He’s just another straight guy running his mouth and telling lies for PR, shock value, and to make a mockery of LGBT people.

I am sick of being part of a community that finds fault with everything.
Would you rather have him go on and in about how much he hates gay people????
It is great a straight guy can joke about how he would have gay sex.
Danny
He’s still hot, and his good-natured sense of humor makes him all the more charming.

what the hell is he talking about? ‘Not attractive to gay men?’ What is he crazy? I find him cute đ

@Patrick:
I had to look “Trunk Butt” up too. I wonder if this shouldn’t be relegated to the Urban Myth dictionary? I have NEVER seen anything like it and is saying quite a bit with the banging I’ve enjoyed and the banging and fisting I have witnessed. Funny aside, when I looked it up, a Flicker link showed up so I clicked it to see: and it was some kid stretching deep into a car truck with his jeans covered rear sticking out of the trunk.
I’m not sure why a condom would make any difference to getting the condition.

I always wondered about him and why I am attracted to him. Maybe it is his nonchalance. Whatever the case, we need to see more of him… his work.

lol fucking funny

He could pull the tube socks out from the bottom of his underwear drawer and go at it with Bradley Cooper again. That should do it.

OF COURSE YOU THINK HE IS “HOT”:……OF COURSE……..
