FEAR!
Yep, and "this is brought about because gay men are afraid that they will be alone for the rest of their lives. If a gay man is not "serving body" while competing to find a trick or boyfriend in one of the more muscle-bound climates of gay culture, he will be sorely shut out. That is why gay men don't get fat, because if they don't have pecs, guns, and glutes, they're going home alone." - Brian Moylan on Simon Doonan's new book, "Gay Men Don't Get Fat".
Moylan goes on to say there are three things a gay man wants; to get buff, married, and stay buff. And the reason? Threesomes!
He says "there are countless committed gay couples out there who like to either play on the side or invite guest stars into their beds. And you're not going to get any A-list guest stars if you're giving D-list torso with a four-star gut. Yes, gay men go to the gym to stay competitive, but since the man-eating marathon doesn't end after marriage, they just keep on competing and competing until death do they part."
While this is not the case for many gay couples, Moylan did write some very interesting points in his Gawker article. The Instinct article left out a majority of what Brian had to say, but that sure didn't keep Instinct commenters from posting harsh comments about him.
Imagine waking up in the morning as you normally do, and notice you are missing three toes. That is exactly what happened to a 61 year old man in Oregon.
OMG, I would totally freak out if my little Chihuahuas (all 4 of them) were having a feast on my feet while I slept. And when I'm tired, I'm tired, just ask Ryan (my partner), I'm literally in a state of cryostasis.
According to the Associated Press, the dog, which was a Shinu Ibu, ate the dogs toes "most likely out of instinct to help remove diseased flesh." I'm sorry, but having diabetes is not diseased flesh, he just had numbness of the feet possibly. In either case, the dog has been given up for adoption and "appears to be anxious." Yeah, I would be too.
