Born on this day 102 years ago: pioneering homoerotic photographer, filmmaker, founder of Athletic Model Guild studio and Physique Pictorial magazine, “the Cecil B DeMille of the posing pouch” Bob Mizer (Robert Henry Mizer, 27 March 1922 – 12 May 1992). All these decades later, Mizer’s beautiful, joyous and life-affirming vintage beefcake pin-ups celebrating firm male flesh are STILL widely censored on the internet. (Don’t fall for the faux “progressive” pinkwashing done by the likes of Facebook, Instagram and Tumblr). Last year I visited “A Hard Man is Good to Find!” (billed as “a bold new exhibition charting over 60 years of queer photography of the male physique”) at The Photographer’s Gallery here in London. It featured an actual posing pouch from Athletic Model Guild, sewn by Mizer’s mother, displayed in a glass vitrine. It was like witnessing a sacred religious artifact - like the shroud of Turin! (I took a photo which I really should post sometime!). Pictured: a “safe for social media” shot by Mizer, 1982.

I have a fond memory of me lying in your bed in only my boxers and earrings.
I loved this life that we had, our clothes scattered across the bedroom floor, our cat sleeping in the chair, our strip of pictures from the photo booth on the desk.
You made me feel like I was a kid again, and I made you feel the same. I look forward to the day we have a different bed, and I'll find myself laying in that one in only my boxers and earrings again. I'll look around at our new surroundings and love them all just as much.
And then I'll see you, shutting the bedroom door. You'll be in your underwear, your hair disheveled, but sleepily smiling as you crawl back into bed. And that'll be when I know I'm home.
