SOS, Please!

Six years ago, when we were in our early 20’s supple teenagers, we frequented Sushi on Sunset. The dark ambiance allowed for covert sneaking of sake bombs, since, you know, we were teenagers six years ago and thus certainly weren’t of drinking age. These were our golden Hollywood memories, so you can imagine the dismay [...]

Foot Fetish

PF Flyers are the underdogs of American footwear classics. Like us, they have been bullied by the big wigs (Converse, Vans) for decades. Still, they persevere, and end up more avant-garde and creative than their cobbler competition. Other brands play it safe with seminal, casual sneakers (though John Varvatos’s interpretation of Chuck Taylors are worthy), [...]

Sex, Pecs and Rock ‘n Revolver

A recent advertisement from Mogul really spoke to us. In it, an Adonis lay invitingly on a leather-covered bed. The model (our future boyfriend, may we add) was possessed of the same intensity and rugged charm found in the headboard supporting him. Through Mogul, we realized that we prefer our furnishing like we prefer our [...]

Cabaret In LA?

Most extracurricular activities we enjoy do not take place upright. Los Angeles’s Upright Cabaret is one exception. In a city often accused of only having culture in its yogurt, Chris Isaacson and Shane Scheel, along with musical director Chris Bratten, have modernized cabaret to appeal to a new generation of gays. The threesome appear all [...]

The Magic Of Music

Yeah, the economy is worrisome, but we still look pretty and have fabulous taste in music. We remember a saying that has become a personal mantra: “When in times of war (or volatile stock markets), citizens look for a friendly drink.” As gays we take it further: “When at war, we look for a friendly [...]

Ritmo For Homos

We tend to follow Brad Pitt’s lead. Though we haven’t (yet) been caught in his sweatshirt, curled in a fetal position and asleep on his bed, we still keep pretty good tabs on Mr. Pitt and his elegant style. If we can’t bed him, can we at least be as fabulous as the gay-friendly star? [...]

TGIF Turns Gay

Acronyms are an integral part of the gay community. For instance, how long would it take to navigate online personals if it weren’t for such shortcuts as BDSM, M4M, FTM and so forth? Now, thanks to the world famous Laugh Factory, the acronym that has become an American tradition is turning gay. Literally. Thank God [...]

Love From Oz

We fake things here in Hollywood. Our age, our Manhunt dimensions, being tops – it’s all fair game for exaggeration. And as they do in Australia, we also like to fake a cold, volatile winter. It’s the perfect excuse for us West Hollywood boys to layer our clothing so we can watch in comfort as [...]

Going Bananas For Gays

Even though you’ve only seen us for a couple of days, we’ve had our finger in the gay pulse of Los Angeles for some time, and it seems that guerrillas are the new trend. And while images of muscular, Rambo-esque men infiltrate our mind, the guerillas taking over the LA gay scene are more our [...]

Milkshakes Bring All The Boys

Our fleeting interest in “healthier” deserts ends with summer. We like creamy, thick milkshakes, and Kelis has taught us that they are a surefire way to bring boys to the yard. Testing the theory, Millions of Milkshakes has opened its doors in the heart of West Hollywood. The city is accustomed to frozen desert fads [...]
