(or maybe his gay cartoon world. either way, this posting gets right into men’s bodies and sex between men, in plain talk, so it’s totally not for kids or the sexually modest)
Encountered on Pinterest some time ago, an item from the Jason Lloyd Art website, with a work much like this one, two men in the act (but without a visible penis, so I can show it to you here):

(#1) “Just Relax” — I think Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s 1983 hit song is an inevitable association here — is about taking pleasure in getting fucked, and it’s in JL’s least cartoonish and most realistic (but soft-focus) style, which can be either simply erotic (and touching) or actually pornographic (and arousing), depending on how you approach it
All of JL’s work is at least somewhat simplified in its lines, and most of it is straightforwardly cartooning, all of it skilled, some of it notable.

(Some male body parts, depicted and discussed in plain, but not raunchy, terms. So not squarely in the Sex Zone, but not tasteful either. Caution advised for kids and the sexually modest.)
For me, it all started with a recent ad on Facebook for suit sets (sleeveless tank tops with bikini underpants) from the Fabmens company in a variety of intriguing patterns, including a (more or less) rainbow “color block” pattern seen here from the rear:

(#1) The design of the underpants strikingly accentuates the wearer’s ass / butt / bum cleft / crack / cleavage, in a way that in my queer fashion I (at least) find decidedly hot

(A right-at-the-line Daily Jocks ad today, with text that takes it over the line for kids and the sexually modest.)
The ad copy from Daily Jocks:
NEW DJX CIRCUIT
Step up your party look with the reimagined black circuit look.
Pair matching Jockstrap, Harness & Shorts.
(The name of the DJX Circuit Collection is a reference to gay circuit parties — on which, see below.)
The image is of Golden Boy (from a 2/27 posting) — hyper-masculine, with a hairy, sweaty, oiled, gold-toasted body — here with a hand in his jockstrap, and posed against a golden car.
My title for the composition:
Fired up for the grand finale,
Golden Boy jams a hand in his jockstrap
To which I’ve added a salacious caption:

(Hunky men performing suggestively in remarkable underwear, with a caption alluding to sex between men, so probably inadvisable for kids and the sexually modest.)
In an ad for a Daily Jocks late February sale, the model does a cock tease in his extraordinary golden shorts (DJX Liquid Shorts in gold, from the Circuit collection), with this ad copy:
Our ever popular Circuit Shorts, now available in metallic gold!
Stand out from the crowd in these unique liquid metal effect shorts, made from a premium foil-print fabric.
Featuring a secret pocket built into the waistband, perfect for storing your party essentials in. Also includes a drawcord at the waist for optimum fit. These shorts are designed to be form-fitting but still comfortable, with a light stretch in the fabric.
The ad’s image, with a caption of my own devising:

(Men’s bodies and sex between men, in street language, totally not for kids or the sexually modest.)
He’s never early, he’s always late
First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait
I’m waiting for my man
(from Lou Reed’s “I’m Waiting for the Man”)
Today’s Daily Jocks ad, for a jockstraps sale, has yet another model posed as offering himself for anal intercourse, something of a DJ specialty; these ads show really handsome male buttocks, minimally clothed, and right up against the line with porn. In today’s case, I’ve chosen to spin a whole sex story (in free verse, as a caption) about the man in the ad. Under the fold.

From Mike Pope on Facebook yesterday, this Duolingo exercise:

(#1) Mike’s note: “Duolingo is really great for learning those phrases you need every day”; word by word: ‘Marcus cheese greatly smells’ (with verb-final syntax)
A little hymn to Marcus as a cheesy comestible:
Marcus smells greatly of cheese
ripe, redolent of cheddar, his
pubic bacteria broadcasting his
manscent to any intimate nose, a
deeply tasty hunk, serve him up
with a young cabernet
Well then: some Latin, and some reflections on cheese and male sweat.

(Nothing elevating here at all. Men’s bodies and mansex, not suitable for kids or the sexually modest.)
From the Falcon gay porn studios this morning, some underwear, with a caption of my own devising:

(About gay male presentations of self, but with a fair amount on men’s bodies and mansex in plain language, so not suitable for kids or the sexually modest.)
Yesterday’s mailing from Daily Jocks, with an ad for Sparta’s colorful fetishwear: harnesses and underwear (in this case, a jockstrap), plus my (parodic) caption (apologies to Rick Blaine):
(#1)
Of all the dungeons
in all the queer clubs
in all the world,
he walks into mine.
Play me, Sam.
Play My Ass Gets Hot.
